Here they are for Week 5...we bet the opposite of the majority in my buddy's work pool (large sample size of players.)

YTD, going against the 80%+ picks is 8-2; 70-79% is a mediocre 7-7 after a rough week 3. Going against the 60% plays has been oddly solid this year, except for that blowout in Green Bay last night.

Anyway...

83% Seattle (take Washington)
82% Philly (take STL)
82% SD (take NJY)

75% Detroit (take Buff)
71% Dallas (take Houston)
71% Cleveland (take TN)

I once again despise these picks, so that's probably a good thing.

WWCD tried this before in a thread called Fade the public. He tracked the 70% public sides, and up untill week 4 they were 14-16 so not sure what did you take into count. We can also agree on blindly tailing the "sharp" side isnt okay.

Read the thread. It's his friend's pool at work. Goodness.

I would think that the sample that WWCD was using would yield similar results to my buddy's pool's players selection percentages, yet over the last few years this particular set of players has proven to be consistently really quite horrible at handicapping games. Regardless, similar thought process on both fronts I agree.

Anyway, Pittsburgh went to 80% now so take Jacksonville, perhaps the worst team in the NFL.
