2019 NFL Week 6 Picks Against The Spread

Drum roll please, once again, rather than Thursday's in the Loo, it's time for NFL Football picks in the toilet.... putting that "picking your seat" or "content down loading time" to good use?

Our 2 year total 298-226-10 in picking ALL 534 NFL games against the spread surpasses all "credentialed" experts, touts, pundits, analysts, etc. and its not even remotely close.  Our 2017 season retrospective of George Plimpton in Paper Lion seems apropos? For a recap of our award winning 2017 and 2018 ATS records click here.

BTW - Down and Out? After four weeks, six teams had not tasted victory, Broncos, Dolphins, Jets, Bengals, Redskins and Cardinals.

And then there were four with Cards off the schneid at Bengals expense, while Broncos charged the Bolts, Skins got flayed by the Pats, and the Jets bit the dust. Fins still 0-4 with the bye.

Up and In? After four weeks, three teams had yet to suffer the agony of defeat, Chiefs, Patriots and Niners. 

And then there were two as the Chiefs bit Colt dust, Minutemen flayed the Skins, and Niners blanched Browns.

BYE: BUF, CHI, IND, OAK
OFF BYE: DET, MIA

Although the line differs on occasion from the links above, try Jeff Sherman's Twitter feed, as the manager of the Westgate Super Book, he might just know a little sumpin.


Amazingly close to what actually went down... way back on May 17, 2019, CG Technology posted opening betting spreads on weeks 1-16.  
Weekly "advance" lines from the Westgate can be found here and here, and weekly look ahead's from Fairway Jay.


For excellent insight, we recommend referring to Case Keefer at the Las Vegas Sun, Jamey Eisenberg at CBS, and the Miami Herald's Greg Cote, as from our experience they might just know a little sumpin, sumpin.
