Wisdom of the crowd isn't perfect but I don't think it's had a losing record yet. Of course it's nearly impossible to predict what the wisdom of the crowd will be each week.

I picked identically with Wisdom of the Crowd.

Lol I have no idea of who I picked vs WOTC.

I suck so badly.

Thought I heard last weekend that the number of games decided by a touchdown or less has already exceeded last year (50 if memory serves) and last year was one of the highest of all time. Makes it tough, almost a coin toss in many games. I'm certainly not asking for the analysis, but wonder how our picks performed against and agreeable spread. It's meaningless since many of our picks would likely have been different against a spread.

Week six WotC was 7-8.

Still better than my worst week.

I'm two off wOTC. Jets, not Chiefs, and Packers, not Falcons.

Still better than my worst week.

According to the spreadsheet they were 8 - 7. Full WotC records below:

Week 1: 11 - 5
Week 2: 11 - 5
Week 3: 10 - 6
Week 4: 8 - 7
Week 5: 7 - 7
Week 6: 8 - 7
Week 7: 8 - 7

Hmmm. I wonder what I was looking at. I could have sworn it was 7-8. Dunno
