Thanks @Paolo_X. It’s hard to stay ahead of the field. Totally new territory for me.

Well for those who went 5-1 like me with the single miss via heartbreak near the end of the game for your loss, you win a Prophecy Award for Week 5, so put that award on your shelf, for I spent a lot of time shining them up this week.
Now I see a few of you winners a bit restless now, but please this is not the time to fight about who was a copycat of your picks, but I digress.
That slate was kind to most of us this week, and maybe take some rest today, for I hope you will be ready for another MEAN SLATE in Week 6, so prepare for battle!
I got you this time you dastardly @Maaax just when you thought you’d get away with it again you overgrown beaver,
and you too there Mean Titanium Ted @Tedtanium1976 ,
but I’m still coming after you @Squishy21 @prairiewolf77 and @KingCrimson769 you cagey varmints,
plus now also you the mighty and ominous @Abendschan ,
but it’s going to rough sailing into that MEAN SLATE and to avoid that twisted bojack Milton on these high seas.
Arrrggh!

Hi BomberJunkie, I think I went 5-1 not 4-2 and should be 20-10 and in 4th place. Just ask Paolo_X! Lol
I got Minnesota, Chicago, Baltimore, Dallas and Kansas City correct. Thanks

Everybody, excuse me everybody, could I have your attention for a minute please!?
The ominous and mysterious @Abendschan has levitated into our midst so as to attempt to enlighten us this evening.
Let’s put our hands together now for a warm welcome.
Subject to further review and upon confirmation, I shall have your Prophecy Award shined up and ready for you as well sir, congratulations, and thank you again for taking time out of your busy schedule so as to grace us with your presence this evening.
Now I have to go buy some new polish for the next time after shining up a record 10 of these Prophecy Awards for Week 5.
It sure takes some serious [crystal] balls like this for such auspicious collective achievement, you know.
Ah well,
congratulations to all our prophetic winners for Week 5,
please admire and nod upon the sparkle of your award tonight in the quiet darkness,
ignore any disruptive questions from wife, girlfriend, or family during any merry stupor,
thank you to all for playing,
and please come again.

Upon further review, the call on the field of 4-2 has been
CONFIRMED.
The challenger indeed selected both the Bills and the Steelers.
INCORRECTLY.
NO PROPHECY AWARD FOR YOU.
Thank you to all for playing. Please come again.

What is Black Sabbath feeling ??
What an adventurous week!
yeah, I went hiking up my stairs, wading thru the mess in my room, found a lost pill, looked out my window, saw a dancing tree, ate some way too spicy food, and visited this forum. whew

I’m going to take a wild guess that’s he’s feeling like something in between Iron Man and Paranoid.

Out of first place. Regression to the mean. Can’t believe I over thought and picked Carolina over Chicago. SMH

It happens no doubt.
For me, I’ve figured out that of course there is no magic method and one-size fits all, but my gut is better at picks than overthinking picks most of the time.
