RossCode Picks - NFL Week 8

No spreads over ten points this week - which is good for me. I have no clue what to do with those games! Not that I'm much better on the rest of the games! This could be Oakland's best chance to get a win, but Arizona should be hungry to get back on the… more »

I actually have a decent excuse for not posting on Tuesday night. I was presenting at a user group - but that doesnt' excuse Wednesday, Thursday or Friday! Going into Sunday night, I'd picked each winner correctly - 12-0. Then I missed both the Sunday an… more »

I've seen more 10+ spreads this season than I ever have before! And this week brings a new high. The Colts are an 18.5 point favorite! When you think about it, it makes sense - who wouldn't be surprised to see a 35-10 game? Remember, the Titans got plast… more »
