Now that I’ve upped my Thursday-night record to 5-0 — thank you kindly, St. Louis — it’s about time to beef up the overall record.
I got a head start on it last week with an 8-7 finish and 2-1 best-bets record. I have a ways to go to get that BB record (3-9) to respectability. There’s no better time than the present with the momentum of another 1-0 start to the week.
Best bets are, of course, in CAPS:
ATLANTA minus 3 at Washington
Pittsburgh minus 3.5 vs. Philadelphia
Green Bay minus 7 at Indianapolis
Cleveland plus 8.5 a Giants
Tennessee plus 5.5 at Minnesota
Cincinnati minus 3 vs. Miami
Kansas City plus 6.5 vs. Baltimore
Carolina minus 3 vs. Seattle
Jacksonville plus 5.5 vs. Chicago
New England minus 6.5 vs. Denver
SAN FRANCISCO minus 10 vs. Buffalo
San Diego plus 3.5 at New Orleans
MNF: HOUSTON minus 8 at Jets
