Search For The NFL Handicapper: Week 5


October 3rd, 2008 by Booth

After taking home Week 3’s Flaccid Penis Award, Boruburu came back strong in Week 4 to claim The Shannon Sharpe Award, going +7.6 units and not being scared to bet on Kerry Collins. The effort rocketed him up to third place.

Week 4’s Flaccid Penis Award goes to BigSnack98 who won with the Browns but nowhere else, landing him at -4.6 units for the weekend.

Frank C. had another big week going +6.6 units, putting him squarely in the driver’s seat. His rise to power is setting up perfectly for a disappointing drop off once people start playing his picks. Just the way we like it.

Contest Info: Enter your picks in the comments section. The overall winner after Week 8 gets their own Friday column as NextRound’s resident NFL Handicapper. To be eligible to win you must participate in 6 out of 8 weeks and submit at least 30 picks overall. Check out the full guidelines here. We’ll be using Sportsbook’s NFL lines for the purposes of the contest and will make judgment calls on discrepancies.H

Here are my three bet the mortgage picks for Week 5 followed by last week’s results and the overall standings. Good luck on Sunday.
