We split week 7, winning in Chicago with New Orleans (+3.5)—even though the game closed away from us around +4.5—while losing our pick of the week in Philadelphia (+3). We now sit at 106-88-10 (54.7%) since we started writing this column, and 13-7 on the season. On picks against the spread, we’ve been 76-60-6 (55.9%) since 2017 and still have some win totals that are pending for the 2019 season.
This week was a difficult one in the sense that not very many games were compelling from a playoff-leverage perspective (there are zero games between divisional opponents, and only five games are interconference).
