Well folks let me start by apologizing for my very poor pick last night. Just about everything I predicted played out almost exactly opposite what I said. Not only did I advise you to take New England, but you probably bet more than you would have had I not advised you to load up. New England's defense was in fact the one that got exposed and the saints did almost drop 40. I have all the respect in the world for Drew Brees; he is a great leader, a hard worker, and a great competitor, and even though no one wants to put him in the same conversation as Brady and Manning he is most certainly there. The guy is deadly accurate. If a perfect QB rating, 5 TD's and 0 ints, and over 300 yards passing on Monday Night on one of their biggest games of the season doesn't do it for you than I don't know what will. The Saints were also banged up at CB and despite some very new faces filling in, they still kept Brady and the Pats well in check. It is obviously easy to be a proverbial Monday morning quarterback, but that game is case and point of why I almost never do a Play of the Year, or even a Play of the Week. And admittedly looking back it was very stupid to make my POY an NFL game, as I have enjoyed much greater success this season in College ball. However, it has been a good season from a learning standpoint as I have some good ideas as to how to increase our NFL percentage for the remainder of this season and into next season, and I don't think I'll be trying a Game of the Year any time soon. This is a marathon and not a sprint and there's no need to try to pick up a whole bunch of units all at once. Just grinding it out betting a unit a game is the way to do it. I know it's been a tough stretch of late but I encourage you to ride out the storm as I have a lot of faith that things will turn around and I can assure you after this weekend I am committed to turning things around. A couple days off is exactly what we need after a game like that, so I will see you folks back here on Thursday.
