The calendar turned from October to November and I turned from being hot to just hot garbage with my NFL picks. Week 9 was the worst week of them all for me this season. I went 4-10 against the spread and 6-8 straight up.

Just north of 12 percent of entries received the boot from the massive Vegas Survivor contest Sunday by Circa with a $15 million grand prize when the Packers lost to the Panthers as 14-point favorites. We are down to less than 2,000 contestants still alive as Week 10 comes around in what looks like a gauntlet of a week.
