The Running Game: Week Nine Everything is Terrible

Actually, it's not. The weather was good, I got over 14,000 steps, we're finally back in Standard time, and my official calculation is still above 500. The Gut picks are horrible because I hedged on the wrong games, but I am happy to see that my boyfriend's team won even while he was concussed.

	Calc	Benchmarks	Thoughts and Gut pick	Winner
ATL at TB	ATL	ATL	A Buccaneer win was not impossible on Thursday, but I stuck with ATL	ATL
JAX at KC	KC	KC	My boyfriend's concussion last week scared me, JAX	KC
DET at MIN	MIN	MIN	I'm thinking that this post-bye slump might continue, DET	DET
PHI at NYG	NYG	Split	I'm hedging with Gut picking PHI	NYG
DAL at CLE	DAL	DAL	I want to see 1 win for the Browns this season, but it won't be today, DAL	DAL
NYJ at MIA	NYJ	MIA	Nearly every one of my calculations is going with NYJ	MIA
PIT at BAL	PIT	PIT	Another, like the above, "should have hedged, in hindsight", PIT	BAL
NO at SF	NO	NO	Brees and the Saints are on a roll, NO	NO
CAR at LA	CAR	Split	Last week's win was big and should build some momentum for CAR	CAR
IND at GB	GB	GB	PAAAACCKKKKEERRRRSSSS! Don't let me down again!	IND
TEN at SD	TEN	Split	Everything is split, but I gotta go with Mariota and Murray, TEN	SD
DEN at OAK	OAK	Split	I want Oakland to win, but I am going to hedge this pick, DEN	...
BUF at SEA	SEA	SEA	WIIILLLSSSOOONNNNN! I think I'm gonna hedge, BUF	...

As for my Packers, something needs to improve. Right now, they certainly don't deserve to go to the playoffs. I mean, even the Texans can beat the Colts in their own house.
