This week is difficult for me. Sure I got my normal gut hunch of the upset, but now that espn is trying to be 'upset savvy', I feel like I have been tampered with.
My usual gut feeling was San Fran over Minnesota. ESPN seemed to be hunching toward this one too I saw during lunch. Then I started seeing Detroit over Washington. If they are gonna win, it is this week though. Too obvious...and ESPN is hunching it too.
My unadulterated pick would be Buffalo over New Orleans, but I just feel like my whole picking method has been tainted this week.
Thus, I'll take a week off of upset picking.
Baltimore over Cleveland.
You know what, screw it. I am confident in this pick:
49ers over Vikings in the MetroDome.
