Daily Norseman Staff NFL Picks: Week 5

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it is again that time to see who the writers at your favorite Minnesota Vikings’ website are picking in all of the games across the National Football League. We’re into Week 5 and while my picks are still a total disaster, at least Week 4 wasn’t super great for any of us, to be honest.

Here’s how everybody fared last week:

  • Eric Thompson: 10-6 straight-up, 7-9 against the spread, 7-9 over/under
  • Ed Brodmarkle: 8-8 straight-up, 5-11 against the spread, 7-9 over/under
  • Warren Ludford: 8-8 straight-up, 5-11 against the spread, 8-8 over/under
  • Christopher Gates, 8-8 straight-up, 7-9 against the spread, 7-9 over/under
  • GA Skol: 5-11 straight-up, 4-12 against the spread, 11-5 over/under
