The top 5% weekly picks are 11-33-1 .............. You would be 20+ units betting against those picks - - - - Wow!

Based on previous weeks choices I'd say the Saints -6.5 has a pretty strong chance of being among the top 5. Will go out on a limb and say that for the first time this season the consensus picks will be at .500 or better. Feels like it's the equivalent of picking the Jaguars to get a win but believe that this is the week
The whole first-place teams headed into a bye trend lands on Dallas this week. I hope everyone takes NO. (Wish I could have the 7 though.) What percentage of LVH contest players use tournament strategy? Fading Top 5 picks, if most of those were made in response to line moves since the card came out, means you're giving up a point or two, so you may not win all the faded Top 5 picks if they only lose by a point, i.e., a Polish middle.
Frank ... are you really saying JAX has a chance to win this week? Yikes, TEN is my suicide play this week. No problem putting some on the JAX ML as a hedge, though.
Don't understand the question - I bet Tenn 10 days ago at -12.5 at LVH. Also used them in Hilton contest and made it my Best Bet in Nugget contest so I am 100% on the Titans side. --- I think I see why now - the post where I predict that the LVH consensus finally has a winning week. Was merely comparing two that have gone winless - the Jaguars with the LVH consensus having a winning week. I absolutely don't thing Jax wins this week.
Thanks Frank ... that was exactly where I read it as you mention in your follow up to the original answer ... and YES, I did see it was your GN best bet and LVH @ -12.5.
