Long story short, my NFL picks in Week 2 were a grand success, so let’s stay hot with this Week 3 menu:
49ers 31, Steelers 20: No Big Ben. No Le’Veon Bell. No Antonio Brown. No NFL triplets last forever. Turn out the lights on the Steelers, like their last visit to the 49ers, in 2011 at Candlestick.
Vikings 27, Raiders 20: It’s the first of six weeks away from Oakland. They’ll return in November, kind of like sending my kid off to college. Line: Raiders +9
Titans 23, Jaguars 21: The Titans ride Marcus Mariota’s interception-free start to the season.
