A Look at NFL Spreads: Week 1

Not a good start for me picking the games. In the following weeks, I'll post my picks with the spreads, but this week was a bit hectic with the Thursday game.

And my picks wouldn't have helped you much anyways. I am 5-8 so far this week, thanks to some last second points in the Ravens and Giants games that tipped the scales.

My one surprise of the week: the Arizona Cardinals who did not look good in their NFC title defense. It probably shouldn't have been a surprise, but after I got killed picking against them last year, I couldn't pick against the Cards in Week 1 this year.

My suicide pick was the Ravens and the Chiefs made it a bit more interesting than it needed to be...but prevailed in the end.
