CHARLIE’S PICKS – WEEK #1

    650 487 Charlie the Unicorn

    Welcome to Charlie The Unicorns Week #1 Predictions.

    The first game has already been played, with a wild outcome decided by a FG kicker. Hopefully more of this goodness happens during week #1 action. There are very few “premium” match-ups, but plenty of intrigue with new coaches and/or QBs playing in various spots this week. There are some big time suspensions and injuries that will alter outcomes this week. I’ll put more time into the article next week with a blurb about each game, but for this week….. bare bones. Have fun and bet responsibly.

    Let’s get to some picks. For the 2015 record, 164-92 straight-up. In 2014, I went 168-88 straight up.
    But as we know, the the new season starts at 0-0 for everyone… and every team wants to go 1-0 every week.
