Little confused about "tie", but...
I have a feeling that the donkeys will go into they're bye week with a VERY close win, BUT NONE THE LESS I MUST GO WITH MY BOLTS!!!!
Oakland has been a surprise and I think that the fight for 1st place in the WEST all year will be between Oakland & MY BOLTS!
Buffalo another surprise, staying healthy will be there downfall, But I'll Stick with them until that time...
SO PICKS FOR WEEK 5

The spread on the San Diego game that we were using was -10 and they won by 10 so neither team covered the spread. With a bookie it is a push and no one loses any money. Unless you still have to pay him a percentage just for the bet. On here it is just a tie. I think I had 4 last year? I am surprised there are not more already.
And that brings up a good point. What if two people have for example 45 wins but one has 15 loses and the other has 14 loses and 1 tie. We need to decide now. Do we go by the Wins only and have a tie breaker with a score on the Superbowl or does the one with less losses get the win?
When will you post the spreads we are using? I need to really start studying, or just go with mascots. Lions and Tigers and Bears OH MY!
Worked for someone last weekend!
Hoot - just go here anytime, bookmark it! Its the second column that says "open" I think this is the reference we are using and the open should never change.

Hoot, I am no expert at this either, but from what I see so far in the first 4 weeks, it seems best to pick the strongest teams like GB, NE, Baltimore, Houston, NO, and Detroit. Those all have won 3/4 times with the highest actual score differential.
The losers so far (with the spread) are St Louis, Jacksonville, and San Diego with no wins/covers.
I also was surprised to see that the home team advantage is not a big plus (with the spread). By my tally, Home teams have won 27/64 so far, less than 50%
Good luck!
