Jeff Hoak came out on top again in Week 15 in the weekly Eastern Maine Sports NFL picks. Hoak extended his overall lead to four games over Chris Lessner. Cassidy Lessner and Anthony DelMonaco are now tied for third place, and Marc Calnan still sits in last. Some huge games to say the least this week as we’ve hit crunch time and teams that are playoff hopefuls and playoff seeding is on the line. In one of the biggest games of the weekend, the New England Patriots try to bounce back after their seven game winning streak was snapped last weekend when they host the Buffalo Bills in a battle for first place in the AFC East. Our entire staff believe the Packers, Eagles, Patriots, Chargers, Buccaneers, and Cowboys will all win this week. Here are the results from last week, the season standings, and then the Week 16 picks-
Jeff Hoak (11-5 and winner of Week 15) 142-81-1
Chris Lessner (10-6 Week 15) 138-85-1
Cassidy Lessner (9-7 Week 15) 131-92-1
Anthony DelMonaco (8-8 Week 15) 131-92-1
Marc Calnan (7-9 Week 15) 120-103-1
