jsarno's top 5 picks week 5.

[jsarno]

week 1- $50
week 2- $250
week 3- $50
week 4- (-$50)

total +$300

1- Cincinnati +16- Wow, 16 points. I figured this would be a 10-12 spread, but to give 16, that's too much to pass up. A team can easily win by 14 and people think it was a thrashing, so 16 should be a safe pick. (emphasis on "should") haha.

2- Chicago -3.5- It has become clear that the loss of Martz in Detriot, and the upper management turmoil is too much for this team to overcome. Chicago is a tough team (as evident by their appearance on my top 10 power poll) the Bears should win by 7 or more.

3- San Diego -6.5- Miami is not as good as they looked vs New England, and San Diego's offense is looking good. If this was a 7 spread, I might have stayed away, but it's 6.5, so I'll gladly take it.

4- Indianapolis -3- Here I am...again...taking the Colts. I'm THINKING the bye week has them regrouping. This team still has the ability to be dominant, and they like to whip up on Houston.

5- Washington +6- Here I am...again...taking the Skins with the spread. Just 2 weeks ago I said I never take the Skins, and I'm going to the well again because I feel 6 is too much to give in this game. I feel that win or lose, the game will be decided by 3 points. Of course, as usual, I hope I am right.

as always, feel free to disagree. Kinda hoping I get more people to disagree this time since when people disagree, I win, last week, several agreed with me, and I lost. haha.
