Greg Cote's Week 5 NFL picks

The Magical Misery Tour continues! We held about even against the betting line (woulda been 8-7-1 if not for that last-second Chiefs debacle Monday night), but that 7-9 outright is embarrassing. Too early in the season to panic, but we're experimenting this week by massaging the methodology a bit. A tad less reliance on research and a tad more faith in just plain gut instinct and feel. Let's see what happens. Like Dolphins fans, I figure my season can't get any worse ... can it?! [Note: Thursday night pick was Patriots (-5 {) over Buccaneers, 34-23].
