Playing the Odds: Touchdown Wire’s Week 4 NFL Preview

Dare we say… improvement?

After a brutal performance in Week 2, that had our fearless hero questioning everything and contemplating a return to the practice of law — which trust me, is not good for anyone — Week 3 offered a bit of a bounceback. Only the New York Giants prevented a clean sweep of the three big plays, and our hero finished the week 2-1 on the big three, and 6-7 on the rest of the games. That brings the season record to 4-5 on the big three picks of each week, and 17-26.

Look, I’m grasping for a silver lining here.

So we forge on, into the wilderness of a Week 4 slate that offers few easy selections. The three big plays are listed first, and then we dive into the rest of the games. As always, odds are provided by our friends at Tipico, picks are made against the spread, and if you play, please do so responsibility.
