Week 2 is upon us, and the Winning Stats had a rough go of it last week. Picking winners went just 7-9, including its most confident pick, the Redskins, laying an egg on Monday night. I'm guessing it'll need a few weeks to adjust to both the Redskins and the Eagles, who look a bit different from last year. The Predictor was actually a bit better picking Against the Spread, going 7-8-1.
Week 2 is off to a good start, as it had both the Patriots winning and the Jets covering the spread. The Saints appear to be the heaviest favorite this week, but they always seem to have problems winning in Tampa. The Colts and Dolphins appears to be a coin flip game, which the Colts have been very good at winning the last year-plus. There's also a fairly big looking upset on there with the Titans winning in Houston. If it happens, you heard it here first.
Here are the Week 2 picks:
| Home | Score | Away | Score | Probability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Patriots | 23 | Jets | 15 | 71.5% |
| Falcons | 26 | Rams | 24 | 55.0% |
| Eagles | 24 | Chargers | 24 | 51.8% |
| Chiefs | 20 | Cowboys | 22 | 54.9% |
| Colts | 24 | Dolphins | 23 | 51.9% |
| Texans | 19 | Titans | 21 | 53.5% |
| Packers | 29 | Redskins | 25 | 62.2% |
| Ravens | 25 | Browns | 20 | 63.1% |
| Bills | 22 | Panthers | 24 | 56.6% |
| Bears | 24 | Vikings | 23 | 53.2% |
| Buccaneers | 19 | Saints | 28 | 72.6% |
| Cardinals | 18 | Lions | 22 | 60.9% |
| Raiders | 24 | Jaguars | 18 | 64.8% |
| Giants | 21 | Broncos | 27 | 66.1% |
| Seahawks | 31 | 49ers | 24 | 66.2% |
| Bengals | 21 | Steelers | 16 | 64.0% |
My Supercontest picks were 2-3 last week. I feel better this week than I did last, so I'm sure it'll mean a worse record...
- Chargers +7.5 at Eagles
- Titans +9 at Texans
- Saints -3.5 at Bucs
- Cardinals +1.5 vs. Lions
- Seahawks -3 vs. 49ers
