This is an odd week. Jeremy and I are traveling, actually meeting up in Chicago to watch the Steelers vs Bears game.
But we’re out of sorts, both from the travel and from the shellacking we had last week. My instinct is to go bigger on surer bets (didn’t really work Thursday, although I think we were forcing that one). Jeremy’s instinct is to “fuck it”, go smaller but crazier. “Bet on the Bears so I don’t feel bad if the Steelers lose.” What am I supposed to do?
I don’t think we’re going to make bets before the games today. A couple things we’ve thought about:
- $x on 4-way parlay to win: Seattle, New England, Baltimore, and Detroit. These are basically our locks for the week.
- $x on New England to cover 6.5 points.
Jeremy and The Model are most out of sync on the Eagles vs Cowboys game. (Shout out to Demetri Martin. Why does Cowboys sound better than Cowmen?)
I thought about making over/under bets. The Model has done well on them this year. Jeremy is wary of the over/under bets. The one we considered was over on the Seattle vs Houston game.
I don’t have notes from Jeremy this week, but The Model’s picks and Over/Under results are below for paid subscribers.
