**Home team is capitalized.

To read this across the top, we have Washington as a 2.5 point favorite over New England. There was 101 teams that picked the Skins which made it the most popular pick. Moving over across the top line it also tells us 43 teams picked New England which made it the 17th most popular pick. I darkened the 5 most popular plays from the contestants entered. Anyway this is just for informational purposes if anyone is interested. Good luck today men.

They are even the 11th most popular in the Hilton and that's laying the 3.5!! We know how big the half point is.

I take it you disagree Dante?

 

[TTinCO]

Very interesting!

KC is the 3rd most popular pick & Balt is the 5th most popular!!!

At least I'm not the only one who thought that 70% of today's card was a complete toss up.

CHIEEEFFSSS!!!!!!
(and Jets over & Denver small)

Does anyone know the record for the consensus top pick in recent years?

 

[PatrickMcIrish]

Have no idea but 1-0 today.

Tuley-
I might have wrong casino-thought it was stardust- heres what article said(about the #2 contest in vegas)

Gamblers Challenge:
This top Las Vegas contest has some tough competition as well. The leader has 12 points with several others a half-game back.
The top play here by a slim margin is the Kansas City Chiefs giving three points over the Baltimore Ravens. Thirty-nine contestants are jumping on the road-favorite Chiefs.
The second choice with 37 tallies is the Pittsburgh Steelers giving three points to the visiting Tennessee Titans.
The Green Bay Packers are a four-point road ‘chalk’ Monday night versus Chicago. The Bears are the third selection with 36 people choosing them.

Pickles...the Gambler's Challenge is at Station Casinos ($1,000 entry as opposed to $1,500 at Hilton...otherwise pretty much the same rules). Thanks for finding the source.

Thanks for throwing that last bit in there, LOL. I warned Ken to not have me as a partner, I'm horrendous in the NFL when I actually bet it. Taking me as a partner is like bringing a 1 legged man to an asskicking contest.

 

[Fishhead]

6-13??

GUYS!!!!!!
