Week 10 - Contrarian Football Pool Picks

[Chcbleachers]

YTD (through week 9):

Going against the...
80%+ games: 9-6 (3-0 week 9)
70%+ games: 16-15 (1-2 week 9)

Best week of the year last week with the big plays going 3-0. As I noted, they all looked like complete sucker bets and came through as solid winners going the opposite the public.

Onto this week - go opposite:

Carolina 81%
New Orleans 77%
Denver 76%
Pitt 73%
GB 73%

If any slip into the 80s or fall into the 60s, I will update.

I feel like starting last week, this thread is about to get hot

Where are you getting your public figures?

My buddy's work pool. Large sampling size (several thousand at least). We noticed several years ago that whenever the percentages cracked 70 and especially 80%, those picks went down in flames so we started fading that trend. Results have been great every year (the general betting public, including my old self, knows nothing.)

3-2 works. Steelers game was an odd one too. Don't think anyone was expecting Ben.

Cincy went to 71% last night so I took Houston. Wasn't able to post the game tho as I was stuck at work. Losing the 80% TN game made the week a push for me as I go very heavy on those selections. At least it wasn't a heartbreaker I suppose. Looks like there are three games hovering around 80% for Week 11 per my buddy (he didn't give the specifics.)

You gotta think we'll see Denver, Dallas, and Green Bay on the list this week. Maybe even Oakland.

Any update?
