This week’s podcast was recorded Wednesday night. You can listen to our show on iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, and SoundCloud.
This year we are using confidence points for a second competition to hang our hats on against each other.
It looked as though Cory was going to run away with the Week 4 confidence points pool, but with the Saints victory on SNF and a low wager on the Steelers victory over the Bengals, Evan came back and took a one point victory to extend his lead.
Cory and Eric are separated by just a point and both trail Evan by double digits.
This week, we again assign confidence points from 1-15 since there are two teams on bye.
