2014 Season: Week 5 Picks
I don’t even know what to say about this week. After the way my past weeks have gone, I’m simply taking guesses here. Maybe the NFL has fallen into the world of the Paranormal, with karma flying from team to team and trying to make things right. Or maybe the moon and stars have lined up to create a world in the Twilight Zone where everything is turned around and upside down.
Whatever the excuse. Here’s my picks for week 5.

Week 4 Results
Last week has only 1 explanation. NFL in the Twilight Zone. That’s my story and I’m sticking with it.
