Week 5: Picks Summary

My record:
Week 1: 0-1
Week 2: 9-7
Week 3: 7-7
Week 4: 6-8
Week 5: 8-6

Total: 30 W, 29 L, 51 %

I'm happy to finally get my record over .500. I'm mad at myself for picking Dallas and New Orleans. I thought there was a possibility for an upset, but I've been burned too many times by Tampa Bay. Conversely, I've picked against New York almost every week and continue to lose. I really want to end the season with a 55 % or better win percentage. That means I'll have to consistently win 8 or 9 games correct per week.

In fairness, this week's moderate success was mostly luck. I literally wrote my predictions in about 2 minutes. I'll do more research for Week 6.
