0-2 in week 6. 5-14 overall. (26.3%). Awful. I don't even have a cool way to explain what happened this time. Worst season I have ever had. So at this point, I am just going to trudge through and see what happens. I am just gunna have to lower the bar. If I miss every single pick for the rest of the entire season, that is the bar now. So if I can get a few right to stay afloat here and there, that will be a welcome surprise. And I will not consider the season even recoverable unless I somehow reach 50%, which is still considered awful. So I do need to retool a little bit. Let's try a karma changer first. Instead of saying horrible things about Jerry Jones this week, I will say something nice about him. Uh... hmmmm. Well, he does have... no. Wait, maybe he.. no. Ok, screw that, he looks like an old chicken nugget.
LAR -3 -I'm getting more of a TD win vibe than a FG win vibe. Of course, LA is the highest scoring. AZ is lower middle of the road. Of particular note, the Cards are dead last in rushing yards, 3rd in passing. The Rams allow a lot of rushing yards, but not to much passing. So does this mean AZ will have to retool its game? That won't go well. It does bug me a bit that the Rams' only two losses have come at home, but I am willing to overlook that since the Cards have two road losses.
JAX -3 -On paper, this is a bit of a slaughter. A 10 pt differential in terms of averages. Indy is awful on defense, ranking dead last in pts against per game while JAX is 7th. JAX dominates the field in rushing yards per game. I just think Indy is too dysfunctional right now to resolve that.
CIN@PIT <41.5 -This seems a tad high for two teams who are ranked 2nd and 4th overall in pts against per game and who are in the lower end of the pts for per game category. Steelers have only breached 20 points twice this year. And, while Cincy has been trending up, you can pretty much toss the Cleveland game because Cleveland does not rock, and they were only able to put up 20 on the Bills in their own building.
