Today is the day. The first full Sunday of NFL games. Last year, as most of you know, I came in first in our little NFL pool. I walked away with $650 and was very proud of myself for beating my husband and my brother. This year I am going to post my picks every Sunday so that you can see how I do. Just remember that for me there is no rhyme or reason. I do this for fun, I have my favorites and when in doubt if the team has an NC State alum I will pull for them. Also remember I am picking against a spread and I have to rank the teams based on my level of expectations (does this make sense?). For example: this week I rank the Sunday games from 16 to 4 based on which game I am most sure of and which I am least. So my #16 this week is the Giants who I expect to beat the Redskins by 6.5 or more. If the Giants win this game by more than 6.5 points I receive 16 points, make sense? So without further ado, here are my picks for the week. We will see what happens.
| My Picks | Points |
| Miami | 4 |
| Baltimore | 5 |
| Carolina | 7 |
| Cincy | 12 |
| Cleveland | 6 |
| Houston | 15 |
| Indy | 13 |
| New Orleans | 9 |
| Dallas | 8 |
| Arizona | 14 |
| NY Giants | 16 |
| Seattle | 10 |
| Green Bay | 11 |
and here are the spreads that I had to use. Tell me what you think.
