Jason and I got our picks in very early for Week 8 in the NFL, so that Jason can take his family away this weekend. So we made our picks Thursday night while the Dolphins got spanked by the Texans, starting the week off bad for me. We're having a Lock-Off this week, as Monday night sees us locking in opposite teams, so ultimate bragging rights are on the line there. I usually dislike making picks so early because guys haven't been declared out by their teams yet, last-minute practice injuries can still mess up a team's plans, etc. At least there weren't any question marks about quarterbacks. One time, we made picks on Thursday and a couple of QBs were legit hit-or-miss if they would play at the time we picked, to the point where there was no point spread available for those games. That's the worst. But we have a spread for all the games this weekend, so here are our picks, as Jay and I duel on seven games, not counting the beatdown Thursday night:
