MOAR PICKS!
Hey, everybody! We’re back for another week of picks from the folks who power your favorite Minnesota Vikings website. Pretty much everyone did well in Week 1, while Week 2. . .not so much. But, hopefully everyone can get back on the right track for Week 3.
Here’s a look at how everyone did last week.
- Sam Buegler: 9-7 straight-up, 6-8 against the spread, 8-8 over/under
- GA Skol: 9-7 straight-up, 7-9 against the spread, 6-10 over/under
- Christopher Gates: 8-8 straight-up, 10-5 against the spread, 7-9 over/under
- Warren Ludford: 8-8 straight-up, 6-9 against the spread, 11-4 over/under
- Eric Thompson: 8-8 straight-up, 8-8 against the spread, 6-9 over/under
- Mark Pittman: 8-7 straight-up, 12-2 against the spread, 8-6 over/under
Mark absolutely killed it against the spread last week, while Warren was outstanding at picking over/unders. As far as straight-up picks, everyone was pretty average after a week full of upsets.
And here’s how everyone has done for the season thus far. You can look at our overall marks as well as each individual category that we do picks for.
With that, here are our picks for Week 3. As always, lines and numbers might differ for each individual selector based on when they put their picks into the system. If you want to get the most updated betting information, you can always check with our friends at FanDuel.
Mark hasn’t gotten his picks in yet, but he’ll have them in before kickoff. For now, our tallies for the week just include the folks who already have their picks in.
Unanimous Picks
- Cleveland Browns over New York Giants
- Los Angeles Chargers over Pittsburgh Steelers
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers over Denver Broncos
- Las Vegas Raiders over Carolina Panthers
- Seattle Seahawks over Miami Dolphins
- San Francisco 49ers over Los Angeles Rams
- Kansas City Chiefs over Atlanta Falcons
- Buffalo Bills over Jacksonville Jaguars
- Cincinnati Bengals over Washington Commanders
- New York Jets over New England Patriots (everyone got it right)
4-1 Picks

- Baltimore Ravens over Dallas Cowboys (Warren dissenting)
3-2 Picks
Indianapolis Colts over Chicago Bears (Eric and Sam dissenting)
New Orleans Saints over Philadelphia Eagles (Chris and Eric dissenting)
Arizona Cardinals over Detroit Lions (Eric and Sam dissenting)
Well, we’re in agreement on 10 of the 16 games that will be happening this weekend, and of the six games that aren’t unanimous picks, Eric is in the minority on five of them. Maybe he’s trying to make things interesting early. . .or this is the week he’ll just blow all of us out.
Those are our picks for Week 3 in the NFL, folks. Who are you rolling with this week?
