Firs.setisbet, I had to figure out where to even start. I mean, there are so many games, so many teams. I spent a good chunk of time just looking at the schedules, trying to find a good source for all the games of this week. I used several website to find the schedule. I think I visited almost five websites.
Then came the actual picking. Oh boy. This is where it got tricky. I started by looking at past performance, you know, who's been winning, who's been losing. Then I dove into team dynamics. Who's injured? Who's playing well together? It's like a whole other language. Some websites provide some predictions. They said the most dominant team is Buffalo Bills. It might be useful.
I made a list, a physical list on paper, of all the games for week 6. Then, next to each game, I wrote down my pick. I felt like a real analyst, haha! But then, doubt started creeping in. What if I'm wrong? What if I'm overthinking it? There is even a Printable Weekly Pick Sheets I found online. It said that I can customize the sheets by editing the title and by adding rules and prize information.
So, I de.noiscided to do a bit more digging. I looked up some expert opinions. And guess what? They were all over the place! One expert says one thing, another says the opposite. It's madness! There was a website said that it is the best predictions site. It gives NFL fans the tools. Maybe next time I could use it to help me to make a decision.
After all that, I stuck with my original picks. I figured, I've done the work, I've thought it through, I might as well trust my gut. I don't want to pick the winners electronically. I think hand writing is better.
Now, it's just a waiting game. We'll see how I did at the end of the week. It's all a bit of fun, really. But I have to say, I've got a newfound respect for those sports analysts. This stuff is not as easy as it looks! I may think about how to improve my predictions next time.
Anyway, that's my week 6 pick 'em adventure so far. I'll keep you posted on how it all turns out. Wish me luck!
