2020 Week #3

 After a dismal Week 2, I try once again to rebound and do much better with my Week 3 picks. At least Jason didn't make fun of my Lock this week. We once again face off on six games, and they're mostly the dog games so that gives us reason to watch. The prime time games should be two great games, so for entertainment, it should be a fabulous week, and the quality of play for the whole league hopefully takes a step up now that players have had a chance to shake off the rust. And for Pete's sake, let's not have any more franchise players suffer year-ending injuries. Here are our picks:

2020 Week #2

After a dismal Week 1 showing, I try to rebound in this year's Overreaction NFL Week 2. My craziest pick is also my Lock of the Week, which shows how blind I'm flying right now. But I do believe that the Jets can not only hang with a banged-up 49ers squad, but they can pull off the upset. There are a LOT of key injuries for San Francisco right now. Yes, I'm trying to talk my way into trusting it. Jason says to look for the SF defense to set up their offense with at least four possessions that begin in Jets territory, so he's all in on the Niners turning things around. That's the beauty of Week 2--do you go with what you believe about a team, or do you go with what you saw in Week 1? Jay and I are doing battle on six games this week, so let's see how it all shakes out:

2020 Week #1

 How fitting that our podcast lost connection and dropped us during the aftershow not more than a few minutes after Jason praised how clean the live show was from a tech standpoint. No voices breaking up, no hiccups in the connection, then wham. Very 2020-like. We got in all of our picks and basically all of our debate points about each game. It's going to be so good to have football back during this long period of Coronapalooza. Don't know how long it will last, don't know if a team is going to have a COVID breakout and be forced to miss games, but for now, all is well and the NFL is back. We can only hope our picks go as smoothly as the Thursday night opener, which Jay locked up and which I predicted the final score minus one point. We're battling on eight picks in Week 1:
