Horror show. Disgusting. Foul. Nasty. Vile.
Use any word or words in that manner and you are spot on when describing my picks last week.
I did go 8-5 straight up, which is OK. But I was 3-9-1 against the spread, and at one point Sunday, I was staring a Ryan Wilson in the face. What’s a Ryan Wilson? Going 0-fer with your spread picks.
I did rally to win three games, but it wasn’t pretty. That drops my season ATS record to 91-94-8, which means under .500 again. The straight-up record is 116-77.
It’s time to get back over .500 with the ATS picks, which means a big week for me. I am due after last week’s disaster.

Pick: Steelers 23, Patriots 6

Pick: Bucs 20, Falcons 17

This is a long trip for the Rams against a team coming off a bye. The Rams are one of the surprise teams so far, but this is a real challenge for their defense. Lamar Jackson and the offense will get the best of that unit, while the Ravens defense plays well against Matthew Stafford.
Pick: Ravens 28, Rams 16
