Week Three Thursday Night
I’ve decided I should try to put less thought into my weekly picks.
Why? Because last week, I had next to no time to ponder the games and came out 14-2 picking straight up, 8-8 against the spread. The latter doesn’t matter, since I’m not a gambler and since I go into a season knowing I have no chance of predicting margins of victory before I have a decent set of stats to work with — around week five. The former feels pretty OK.
Here’s my note on tonight’s game. I’ll follow up with the rest once I’ve had a chance to think about them a bit less.
Miami (+3) at Jacksonville
The Jaguars are maybe pretty average. I mean that as a compliment. And even if I didn’t, it would be more than enough at home against the Dolphins on a short week. Jacksonville by six.
