2021 Week #12

A very long Thanksgiving week for both Jason and me ended with our show tonight making our Week 12 picks, and it turned out that we are only different on three games. This after the last several weeks when it seemed like we were battling on nine or more games each Sunday. Jay says he can appreciate not being able to lose seven picks to me again as he did a couple weeks ago. I want to be greedy. I wanted to do that again to him, because it felt so good. Of course, he did something similar to me earlier in this drunk-ass season, which still has seven more weeks to go. Take a breath. Here are our Week 12 picks:

2021 Week #11

Jason and I go head-to-head on nine of the 14 remaining games this week, but as we were discussing the games we realized that we weren't really going at each other. This drunk NFL season has left us making picks with a LOT of hedging and acknowledging the other's viewpoints. How can anyone feel very strongly about any pick with all of the inconsistency? Jay had to take a contingency this week as well. He's not sticking with the Cardinals if Kyler Murray is again deactivated before the game as he was last week. I'm just taking Russell Wilson to bounce back no matter what. Here are our picks for Week 11:

2021 Week #10

If I had an idea why my picks have fallen off so hard, I could express confidence that I'm making it up this week with seven games head-to-head against Jay, but I'm flying blind at this point. There have been a ton of upsets in the NFL this season for sure, but not only am I losing the big favs, but the upsets I try to pick aren't coming home. I'll lay off the Eagles and Potato Skins at some point, but I'm letting it ride one more time this week. Here are our picks for Week 10:

2021 Week #9

I did better handling the atrocious job I did handicapping last week than I usually do. I guess I'm learning some coping skills in my old age. There's only so much I can do to guess which team is going to cover and which isn't, so I just went back to the methods I know best, and we shall see if they worked out for me this week. Jason and I will face off on seven of the 13 remaining NFL games. He's got a leg up thanks to the Colts dragging the Jets on Thursday. If he sweeps me again, as he did a couple weeks ago, he's got the season lead, and I'm in deep doo-doo. Here are our picks:
