When I checked to see how I had done on my picks this past weekend, I was extremely disappointed. I thought that I had picked a good set of games, and was confident that I was going to finish well. Boy was I wrong. Needless to say I’m going to excuse last week’s poor picks by blaming my picks on upsets by teams that shouldn’t have won. Carolina, Jacksonville, Washington and Green Bay all beat better teams. That explains four of my six losses. The other two were games I picked wrong were matchups that I knew were going to be close. Cincinnati against Pittsburgh and Indianapolis against New England were games that I tried a new strategy with. I picked the quarterback who I thought was going to perform better. It looks like it didn’t work. Looking at week 11, I’m hoping that I’ll have better luck picking winners. There are two games, San Diego at Denver and Indy at Baltimore, that are going to be tough to pick, and I’m going to go with my gut when I pick those two games.
