Yes, Nathan posted the best card again. Three weeks, three top tallies. If any of you out there haven't turned in your office pool yet or have time to make changes, I'd suggest a peek at his picks for some inspiration.
Revisiting the trends we noted in last week's post, success with both the consensus picks and the ‘lone wolf' selections carried on. Three of the four teams tabbed as ‘across the board' winners in Week 3 came through — Minnesota dumping the 49ers was the miss we didn't see coming. Even more impressive than the 14-4 record we now hold in that department, though, was the fact that all four games in which one of our guys ventured out on their own also paid off. The Cardinals, Raiders, Jaguars, and Bengals secured wins to bring the lone wolf record to 10-1.
So, this week's picks to watch (aside from all of Nathan's, obviously) are the seven we agree on: Baltimore (got that one), New England, Houston, Atlanta, San Francisco, Arizona, and Green Bay. Only one loner this week… seems I'm the only believer in Oakland's chances in Denver. Really. Not just blind faith, I think they take it.
