First up, I forgot to mark here what my mortal lock was. That was bad of me, and to the four to five people that red this, I am terribly sorry. I can assure you that the mortal lock I did have was Green Bay who was favored by 6.5 points against Pittsburgh. I made this pick as the last of my three picks on Mike Phillips’ podcast last week. It is there.
Turn’s out I am not great and picking these NFL games. Record not super strong. However, we continue to persevere!
