It’s been a bad season so far, 9-15-1 through five weeks, and I really haven’t been unlucky. Sure there were some tough beats, but the better barometer is whether you’re on the right side of blowouts, and I haven’t been. It is what it is, and there’s still Q3 and Q4 to make some money. After I went 2-3 last week, Q2 is pretty much over.
But I’m still gonna make my picks:
Jaguars +2 vs Bears (London) — Trevor Lawrence played much better last week, and the Bears are missing some key pieces in the secondary. Plus Jacksonville is used to making this trip
Ravens -6.5 vs Indigenous Peoples — The Peoples have been killing me of late, but they haven’t faced anyone really good yet, and the Ravens qualify, on both sides of the ball. I the IP get a dose of reality.
Colts +2.5 at Titans — It probably hurts that Anthony Richardson is likely to start, but I still think he’s better than Will Levis. This was my fifth choice among the games.
Chargers -3 at Broncos — The Chargers should be healthier off the bye, and the Broncos make for a good sell high.
Falcons -6 at Panthers — The Panthers are a doormat, and the Falcons seem to have finally found their rhythm with Kirk Cousins.
