2017 Week #4

Jason and I differ on only four games this week, so the more interesting part of the podcast may be the freewheeling aftershow, where we got into school bus memories and bad Chicago Bears drafts.  I don't know how we got there, but there we were.  My Lock of the Week is already busted thanks to the Bears stinking out the joint in Green Bay, so Jay can tie me in locks if the Patriots can beat up the Panthers, despite Jay also taking out the legacy of Tom Brady during the aftershow.  It was quite the post-live show chat.  Here are our picks for Week 4 in the NFL:

2017 Week #3

Thanks to my lack of internet connection, we had one of those stressful shows where we didn't know when we were on the air, when we weren't, when we were recording...I have absolutely no idea how much of our broadcast made it to the podcast taping.  But through all that, we communicated enough for me to capture our picks for Week 3 in the NFL, including our seven picks versus each other, and here they are:

Fav	Spread	Dog	Final		Dre	Jay
	Thu. Nite
LAR (1-1)	2	SF (0-2)	LA 41-39		LA	SF
	Sun. Morn
Bal (2-0)	3	Jack (1-1)		London, ENG	Jack	Bal
	Sunday
CAR (2-0)	5½	NO (0-2)			NO	NO
Atl (2-0)	3	DET (2-0)			Atl	Det
TB (1-0)	2½	MIN (1-1)			Min	TB

2017 Week #2

Overreaction Theatre may have taken over the point spreads in this Week 2 in the NFL, but Jason and I tried hard not to let it affect our picks.  It feels like after a successful Week 1, we can get overconfident and not assess what bouncebacks and downfalls may happen in Week 2 and we get caught.  But by both being under .500 last week, maybe we'll see things a little clearer this time.  Here are our Week 2 games, where we do battle on seven picks, not including the Thursday nighter:

Fav	Spread	Dog	Final		Dre	Jay
	Thu. Nite
CIN (0-1)	6½	Hou (0-1)	Hou 13-9		Hou	Cin
	Sunday
NE (0-1)	6	NO (0-1)			NE	NO
PIT (1-0)	6	Min (1-0)			Pit	Min
BAL (1-0)	7½	Cle (0-1)			Cle	Cle
Tenn (0-1)	1	JACK (1-0)			Tenn	Jack
KC (1-0)	5½	Phi (1-0)			KC	KC
CAR (1-0)	7	Buf (1-0)			Buf	Car
TB	6½	Chi (0-1)			TB	TB
Ariz (0-1)	6½	IND(0-1)			Ariz	Ariz
OAK (1-0)	13	NYJ(0-1)			Oak	Oak
LAC (0-1)	3½	Mia			Mia	Mia
SEA (0-1)	14	SF (0-1)			SF	Sea
