Last week was a mess. This week can’t get much worse.
I was 4-10 straight up. Four and 10! The spread worked out a little better, at 6-8.
Simms and I disagreed on six games. He hit on five of them, to go 8-6. My lead has imploded from nine games to two.
For the year, I’m 51-26-1 straight up and 44-34 against the spread. Simms is 49-28-1 and 39-39.
This week, we differ on only one game, straight up and against the spread.
I always say this about wagering: “Please bet responsibility, only with money that you can afford to lose. Because if you listen to an idiot like me, you will.” That was never more true than it was last week.
For this week’s latest disaster-in-the-making, scroll away.
Can the Eagles get their offense figured out on a short week? If not now, when?
Florio’s pick: Eagles 24, Giants 13.
Simms’s pick: Eagles 27, Giants 17.
Broncos (-7.5) vs. Jets at London
The Broncos have a chance to start collecting wins, starting with a team that can’t stop collecting losses.
Florio’s pick: Broncos 28, Jets 9.
Simms’s pick: Broncos 28, Jets 13.
The Ravens’ vibe has morphed from “not our day” to “not our year.”
Florio’s pick: Rams 30, Ravens 13.
Simms’s pick: Rams 34, Ravens 17.
