I thought I was slick pulling out the Cards defense for a quick fantasy stand-in. Thankfully they're not giving me a negative number [yet] given the two Denver pick sixes.

I gave Arizona a short long look.

Tennessee over Baltimore wasn't my best work.

Y’all make sure to pick the Seattle/Oakland game on time, and be aware that it’s actually in London (not really @Oakland).

Toughest week of picks so far, I think.

I'll certainly take it. I have always hated shootouts. Bad defense is not good football to me. I love a game that ends 20-17, and would prefer 9-6 over that shit.

OP standings are updated, and weekly wins have been added.

Mahomes is better, and regression will come, but that regression will be Mahomes' regression, not Kaepernick's. I still foresee the Chiefs being a SuperBowl winning team here. Mahomes is the real deal, and Andy Reid is one of my favorite coaches (despite the cutesy play calling).

I also think the Panthers are sleepers this year. Cam Newton is better without Greg Olson (wild, I know), and Christian McCaffery is amazing. Amazing and without a TD because his QB vultures every opportunity. That is going to come in handy down the stretch, methinks...

I think Carolina is the best team in the NFL's toughest division. If they can get to the postseason, they're built for success.

Football is a highly variable thing. Any game between any two teams can take any shape.

As always please verify. Overall standings updated in the OP.

That was either the greatest stiff arm or the worst tackle I’ve ever seen.

A bunch of survivor leagues are blowing up.

Now, just 1 for the Bills ...

I'd been viewing them as the worst team in the league, but they might have stiff competition from Arizona now.

That's about what I anticipate. 12-10 Cleveland or something.

I'd be very grateful if the Bucs can carry on their early nonsense for at least one more week. Every Pittsburgh loss makes life a little brighter.

I think the point should just go to whoever guessed the team that was leading at full time, and ignore the overtime period.

I remove ties because I don't think it's reasonable to ask anyone to predict a tie.

I think Cleveland has outplayed their opponents both weeks so far, and found miraculous Cleveland ways to prevent themselves from winning.

Against the meh Jets on Thursday night (road teams are especially ass on Thursday quick turnarounds), I give them the edge. If they Browns it up that’d be fine. I’ve picked a week where the only AFC North team to lose is my own team, so being wrong would be super.

The Browns have really put together a masterpiece of losing today. Such art.

I can read these Bengals. I might pick a loss at Carolina next week.
