Jimmy spent last weekend at the Formula 1 race in Austin, TX so he missed his deadline. We apologize if this cost any of you money in Vegas.
Week 7 Picks by Jimmy the Geek
Game of the Week
#8 Las Vegas @ #11 Anchorage -1
Las Vegas (4-2) continues to thrive on forcing turnovers as they are ranked #1 in turnover margin. The rest of the defense has not been good (#27 vs rush, #27 vs pass and #18 total yards allowed). Anchorage (4-1) is 30th in turnover margin and 31st in rushing yards allowed per carry. Sounds like a lot of bad defense on two teams with good records. We like the matchup of Anchors RB Mickey Shipley vs the Rounds rush defense and feel he will get over 100 yards rushing. Take Anchorage in a close one.
“Are We Crazy” Game of the Week
#22 San Antonio @ #3 Omaha -10
We are going to ride this horse until they get a win. There is no logical reason to make this pick but San Antonio is going to sting the Arrowheads.
