It has been a rollercoaster ride for the handicappers through the first three weeks of the NFL season. It’s almost like the Three Bear’s story. Week 1 was too hot, Week 2 was too cold and Week 3 was just right. Well, I guess it doesn’t exactly fit because who is going to complain about the handicappers and consensus being too hot, but you get the idea. Overall it was a slightly above average week for the handicappers in Week 3.
Note that after the Week 4 results are in, I will be looking to expand this recap to include things like ROI and will be publishing a full list of records for all handicappers we are tracking.
