Two narrow losses - one win and one cover - consigned us to a bad week, despite having a chance to win every underdog winner pick at some stage, and nailing the Jets to beat Denver. Our cover call on the Cowboys was a terrible call.

Had the Texans hung on to their last minute lead in Atlanta, and the Vikings scored on their final drive, we'd have actually made a small profit, but it wasn't to be. The narrow margins show we were probably on the right track, and frustratingly, I had mentioned the Bears and Colts as potential winners, only to opt against them because of the risk exposure.

This week, we'll go back to our core principles of picking upsets whenever they present themselves, even if that means 15 underdog winners! (It probably won't though...)

On an obvious note, this is the first time in 4 years that we've had a loss without having a significant early season win to put us in a stronger position. I think this season has been slow for underdogs, or perhaps more accurately, sometimes a little random, without so much reason. I'm confident that will change though, and sometimes I guess you get your bad weeks out of the way early, and your good weeks come a little later. Onwards and upwards!
