Nobody played football last week. Nothing happened. There weren't any big upsets or surprising, lopsided victories or anything like that. Nope. Nothing.
If there were games played last week, and if the writers of this website had decided to pick against the spread among a selection of them, we would have seen last week's gridiron calamity demonstrated in our results. We would have seen that, a week removed from someone going a perfect 7-0, the best record on the weekend was a pedestrian 4-3, with most folks only picking two or three games correctly. You'd also have seen that the contestants are all regressing towards a mean of some sort, with a great narrowing of overall scores.
