Hale's NFL Picks

What happened in Week 6?

Hale's Picks Go 5-2 in Week 6: After a rocky start this year, Hale's hit his stride. The public picks both covered easily, and Hale hopes you've been tracking them the past few weeks. In Week 6, he made 7 picks overall, and should've won them all. Detroit decided to stay in the locker room the second half, and the Bengals had the victory go wide right. Alas, the tragedy of sports.

A recap of Hale's picks in Week 6:

"The Niner QBs carve up the Ram secondary as they coast in a big yardage win." Result: SF goes 22 of 36 for 236 yds passing (almost 400 overall) as the Niners win by more than 2 TDs.
"As much as June would like to put the Jeff George debacle behind him, the team won't be able to heal its aching morale in Pontiac." Result: After coasting to a huge lead in the first half, the Lions win, but don't cover for Hale and almost let this one slip away.
"There's actually D in Denver again, and the Broncs should win easily." Result: Denver holds San Diego to 35 yards rushing and wins 28-17.
"It should be a yard-o-rama for Oakland's recovering team morale as the Raiders pull one out on the road for a change." Result: Oakland rushes for 222 yards and wins 34-13 in a laugher.
"Hale likes the gelling Seattle club to cover (maybe not win) against a Miami team that's not all that solid right now..." Result: Seattle covers and pulls the upset in the Battle of Hurricanes.
"Hale has to go with the Bengals home success and their situation to prevail." Result: Hale would hate *ack* to be the Bengals kicker in *cough* practice this week after blowing it with the game on the line.
"Hale goes with the gut and looks for New Awleans to get their first win of the season." The Saints pick up their first victory.

Best Bets (last 4 weeks): 4-2

As you probably already know, past success is not a guarantee of future results. While many hours of preparation and research go into each week's picks, Hale provides no warranty, implied or express, for their success. And anyone who can guarantee you a win is either lying or has ties to organized crime.
