The staff makes Week 14 NFL picks

December 4, 2019

 

Marc Calnan continued to hold the lead after 13 weeks in the Eastern Maine Sports staff NFL picks contest. After a slow 0-5 start, Calnan rallied to finish 8-8 for a four game lead over Cassidy Lessner. Lessner (8-8) remained in second place holding off the rest of the competition for that spot. Back to back champion Jeff Hoak (7-9) remained in third but is now six games off the pace for first place. Anthony DelMonaco (7-9) is now tied with Chris Lessner one game behind Hoak for third, and seven games back. This weeks slate sees key AFC matchups in Buffalo between the Baltimore Ravens and the Bills, in Foxboro between the New England Patriots and Kansas City Chiefs, and also a big NFC game for seeding in New Orleans between the Saints and San Francisco 49ers. Here are last weeks results/season standings and then the Week 14 prognostications:

 

Marc Calnan 8-8/122-69

Cassidy Lessner 8-8/118-73/-4

Jeff Hoak 7-9/116-75/-6

Anthony DelMonaco 7-9/115-76/-7
