Through three weeks of the season I have picked 33 out of 46 (71.3%) possible
winners, although some of my heavy hitters in the confidence pool fell
last week, but I still finished with 95 out of 130 possible points for the second straight week. I squeaked by with Buffalo on my survivor pick, but my "Out On A Limb" selection, Seattle, cruised past the Rams. It was a rough week with the bookie as I dropped all three bets. I did have the OVER STL/SEA and called the Dolphins +13.5, but I parlayed both picks with the Bears, who blew the lead late and caused me to have my first losing week against the spread of the season. Here's
the picks for Week 4:

MY PICK: PANTHERS - Carolina dropped their first game of the season last week in Minnesota, but now return to face Atlanta. Don't let the Falcons two wins fool you as they came against the Lions and Chiefs at home.
OUT ON A LIMB: SAINTS - There are better weeks to use the Saints, but you can't hide the fact that New Orleans has won seven of nine in the series, including four straight.
