PFF Pick'em: Week 8

Talk about a rebound. After the beating we all took in Week 6, the PFF pickers came out ready to tear Week 7 limb from limb. Seven of our guys reached double-digit wins, five of them 11 of 13 or better, and two (Ben and Steve) narrowly missed perfect cards as they each finished 12-1. Those 12-win efforts were much needed from the pair sitting lowest on the Pick'em totem pole and served to shrink the top-to-bottom gap by a game.

Now over 100 games into the season, Nathan is still cruising; five steps in front of second place Khaled, he's flirting with 70% and has logged four weeks with at least 11 correct calls. It'll take a serious tailspin to bring him back to the pack.

Our five Week 7 consensus picks all came in to bring our season record to 33-6 (85%) when we all agree on the winner. Out of this week's 14 contests, we've got four tabbed as across-the-board selections: Green Bay (over Jacksonville), New England (over St. Louis), Chicago (over Carolina), and San Francisco (over Arizona). Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, and Dallas each have a single backer, keeping Minnesota, Tennessee, and the Giants from joining the previous list.
