NFL pick 'em for Thursday night game. New England by 10.

Oof, I'd love it to be so. Pats by 3, me in bed by 10.

For the NFL picks thread: Patriots by 7 (lock).

They'll beat the Bucs if they can outscore 'em. That's the weekly 2017 story line. Jameis should be looking at film of the NE secondary and saying "I want some of that".

A good week (I have no idea how it happened) has placed me into the upper middle class of mediocrity. My chances of taking the lead are about the equivalent of those that several NFL teams have of winning the Super Bowl. My pick for tonight just changed after hearing that a certain tight end for Patriots will not play. Such fun.
