Another switch at the top of the leaderboard through four weeks of NFL picks for the Eastern Maine Sports staff. Father/daughter duo Chris and Cassidy Lessner both went 9-6 in Week 4 and move into a first place tie. Marc Calnan and Anthony DelMonaco both record 7-8 marks and are one game back in a two way tie for second. Two time defending champ Jeff Hoak went 7-8 as well and is now three back with plenty of season to go. This week the marquee matchups feature a good Thursday night matchup in Seattle as the Seahawks host the LA Rams. Also a pair of 3-1 teams both coming off their first loss of the season meet in Dallas when the Cowboys host the Green Bay Packers. Here are the records from Week 4 and the season standings and then the Week 5 projections:
Cassidy L. 9-6/39-23-1
Chris L. 9-6/39-23-1
Marc C. 7-8/38-24-1/1 game back
Anthony D. 7-8/38-24-1/1 game back
Jeff H. 7-8/36-26-1/3 games back
