Yes. Yes. Yes. It was a successful week for my NFL predictions last week. As the NFL season draws to a conclusion, I’m starting to feel the heat, especially regarding the Cleveland Browns’ quarterback situation. I achieved an 11-5 record overall and 9-6-1 against the spread last week. This brings my total to 133-60-1 straight up and 100-93-1 against the spread.
With 14 games ahead this week—many of which carry significant playoff implications—let’s see if I can maintain this momentum.
