It is, once again, time for our staff of learned (pronounced LEARN-ed) pro football blowhards to take their stab at picking games around the National Football League. . .for entertainment purposes only. . .and see who among us is the best at predicting the outcomes of all the games around the league.
It isn’t me, that’s for damn sure. I’m guessing you’ve figured that out by now.
If you need proof of that, we’ll start out with our widget that lets you take a look at how we’ve all done this season. You can take a look at any individual week this season or the campaign as a whole in any of the three prediction sets we make: straight-up picks, spread picks, and over/unders.
With that, here are our picks for this week around the league. As always, we remind you that picks involving numbers like spread picks and over/unders will vary from person to person depending on when each selector punched their picks into the system that the good folks at Tallysight provide for us. The lines may have changed in the meantime, and you can check out your sportsbook of choice for the latest information. With that, here we go with the picks.
