Ah, Week 9…sounds good until you realize that season will be halfway over after this week. I’d rather not think about it. This is gonna be a cumulative article for the whole week as it seems I’m far too busy or lazy (whichever fits your narrative better) to get out 3 separate pieces weekly. I should retire. Anyway, let’s mix it up a bit this week and just lead off with Week 9 Picks:
Some quick notes…
I think I’ll just fade Pittsburgh every week in hopes of reverse jinxing more often that not
The Dolphins seem to have out-traveled the Chiefs
Seahawks/Ravens should be a great game, ditto for Bills/Bengals
I think the Eagles will absolutely wash the Cowboys
If you enjoy football, stay away from Giants/Raiders
Nice. Now let’s do Power Rankings:
Honestly, I don’t even like these Power Rankings. So many of these teams just exist. I don’t know what to do with all that mediocrity. Let’s just move on to last week’s results:
Heck of a turn around if you ask me. But if history tells us anything, I’m doomed to fail in Week 9. Wonder how I did in bets?
Turns out I went 2-1 for a total of 11-13 on the season. Shoutout the Vikes for the dub, Browns for covering +4.5, and if I would’ve known that Jags/Steelers would be a rain game, I certainly would’ve took the under instead. Can’t win em all. I’ll update this with the Week 9 bets on Sunday, be sure to check back in (I know you won’t).
Das Bets
Money Line: Commanders (+128)
Spread: Seahawks +5.5 (-104)
