I guess it would have taken large kahones to pick Rams over Skins. No one dared. If you dug deeper into the stats and odds, you would have discovered that the Redskins have lost to rookie QB's that last six times they played one. Stafford in 2009, Flacco 2008Gradkowski-Bucs, V. Young etc. Leaving someone out, but it was an L. Its things like this I ususally don't bet against, but my kahones are small.

Another solid week, gotta pick it up though if I wanna win this thing.

I made 3 errors this week that cost me big. Sunday morning after I was checking over my picks for the last time, I changed my picks. I had picked Philly to win and Seattle to win. I looked on NFL.com and saw Jones-Drew and thought this is the upset, not the Seattle game. Of course, Norvell struck again and Jax really is a bad team. The 3rd was the Dallas game. I just couldn't bring myself to pick them, even though we all discussed our feelings about them pulling out the victory.

This was one of those weeks when I thought I did better than I actually did. Watching the scores scroll across the bottom of the screen I thought I'd only missed 2 or 3. Come to find out I'd missed 5 with the Sunday and Monday games still to come and I missed them both.

BTW, I can't believe that smiley isn't available on this board.
