I will be tracking Bill Simmons’ NFL picks throughout the 2016-17 NFL season. These are collected from his podcast episodes with Cousin Sal and Joe House, as well as his Twitter feed. Here are the results for Bill Simmons’ Week 1 NFL picks.
Bill Simmons Week 1 NFL Picks
I will be assuming that all of Bill Simmons’ spread wagers are $1100 to win $1000. The dollar values are to give it a more realistic relation (although I would imagine he wagers a lot more than that per game). His season record after the first week of matches is 4-4-0 (-$400). The ones with the asterisks are his five picks for the Super Contest:
- LOSS: Carolina Panthers -3.5 (-$1100)
- LOSS: Green Bay Packers -5.5 (-$1100)
- WIN: Tampa Bay Buccaneers +2.5 (+$1000)*
- WIN: Baltimore Ravens -3 (+$1000)*
- LOSS: Washington Redskins +3.5 (-$1100)*
- WIN: Oakland Raiders +1.5 (+$1000)*
- WIN: Detroit Lions +3.5 (+$1000)*
- LOSS: Los Angeles Rams -2.5 (-$1100)
