Week 5 NFL Picks: Cindy Downs Erik, Again
Each week before turning in my football picks I like to go to websites like espn.go.com or nfl.com to get a feel for what the experts are predicting. Apparently, I should have been consulting with Cindy Campbell from the Q106.5 Morning Show.
Through 5 weeks Cindy is 52-25, good for second place in our 19 person office pool. Cindy trails only Clem LaBree, 92.9 The Ticket morning show co-host and the only person from Townsquare Media Bangor to ever have a perfect week (Clem had a week where he went 16-0 earlier this season).
In week 5, Cindy went 11-3 and I went 9-5. We turned in identical picks, with the exception of Indy at Houston and Buffalo at Tennessee. That turned out to be the difference, as Cindy nailed both picks and I whiffed on both of them.
Stay turned for our week 6 picks coming up later this week.
Here are the results from the week 5 games:
Indianapolis 27 at Houston 20
Washington 19 at Atlanta 25
Seattle 24 at Cincinnati 27
St. Louis 10 at Green Bay 24
Buffalo 14 at Tennessee 13
Chicago 18 at Kansas City 17
New Orleans 17 at Philadelphia 39
Jacksonville 31 at Tampa Bay 38
Cleveland 33 at Baltimore 30
Arizona 42 at Detroit 17
New England 30 at Dallas 6
Denver 16 at Oakland 10
San Francisco 27 at NYG 30
Pittsburgh 24 at San Diego 20
