Week 9 Totals (Overall)

Mario: 83–50

Parker: 80–53

Mike: 80–53

Hunter: 73–45

Teams on bye: Buffalo, Detroit, Oakland, Indianapolis

Thursday Night Football

Cleveland at Baltimore, 7:25 p.m. (NFL Network)

Mario’s pick: Baltimore

Coming off a big win against Pittsburgh (thanks Mike Wallace!), the Ravens can tout one of the best defenses in the league. Not only will Baltimore win handily, I’m not sure Cleveland breaks 10 points.

Parker’s pick: Baltimore

Mike’s pick: Baltimore

Hunter’s pick: Baltimore

Sunday

12 p.m. games

Kansas City at Carolina (CBS)

Mario’s pick: Carolina

Parker’s pick: Carolina

Mike’s pick: Kansas City

Hunter’s pick: Carolina

Houston at Jacksonville (CBS)

Mario’s pick: Jacksonville

Don’t feel obligated to watch this game. You probably won’t miss much.

Parker’s pick: Houston

Mike’s pick: Jacksonville

Hunter’s pick: Houston

Denver at New Orleans (CBS)

Mario’s pick: New Orleans

Give me the Saints at home with Drew Brees, who is second in the NFL in both passing yards and passing touchdowns. I don’t anticipate Trevor Siemian being able to play catchup.

Parker’s pick: Denver

Mike’s pick: Denver

Hunter’s pick: New Orleans

Los Angeles at New York Jets (FOX)

Mario’s pick: New York Jets

Parker’s pick: Los Angeles

Mike’s pick: Los Angeles

Hunter’s pick: Los Angeles

Atlanta at Philadelphia (FOX)

Mario’s pick: Atlanta

Parker’s pick: Atlanta

Mike’s pick: Philadelphia

Hunter’s pick: Philadelphia

Chicago at Tampa Bay (FOX)

Mario’s pick: Tampa Bay

Parker’s pick: Tampa Bay

Mike’s pick: Tampa Bay

Hunter’s pick: Chicago

Minnesota at Washington (FOX)

Mario’s pick: Washington

Reminder: I’m not picking Minnesota to win until they prove that they can put four quarters together. The past three weeks have been abysmal, with breakdowns along the offensive line (vs. Chicago and Philadelphia) and the secondary (vs. Detroit).

Parker’s pick: Washington

Mike’s pick: Washington

Hunter’s pick: Washington

Green Bay at Tennessee (FOX)

Mario’s pick: Green Bay

Parker’s pick: Green Bay

Mike’s pick: Green Bay

Hunter’s pick: Green Bay

3:05 p.m.

Miami at San Diego (CBS)

Mario’s pick: San Diego

Parker’s pick: San Diego

Mike’s pick: San Diego

Hunter’s pick: San Diego

3:25 p.m.

San Francisco at Arizona (FOX)

Mario’s pick: Arizona

Parker’s pick: Arizona

Mike’s pick: Arizona

Hunter’s pick: Arizona

Dallas at Pittsburgh (FOX)

Mario’s pick: Dallas

This game is going to be incredibly interesting on many levels. Will Big Ben show himself to be healthy? Can Ezekiel Elliott run wild per usual? A win for the Cowboys on the road depends on ball control and chewing up the clock. I don’t see a way Pittsburgh is able to relentlessly pressure Dallas into mistakes.

Parker’s pick: Pittsburgh

Mike’s pick: Dallas

Hunter’s pick: Pittsburgh

Sunday Night Football

Seattle at New England, 7:30 p.m. (NBC)

Mario’s pick: New England

Certainly no controversial officiating or conspiracy theories can come out of this game, right?

Parker’s pick: New England

Mike’s pick: Seattle

Hunter’s pick: New England

Monday Night Football

Cincinnati at New York Giants, 7:30 p.m. (ESPN)

Mario’s pick: Cincinnati

Parker’s pick: Cincinnati

Mike’s pick: New York Giants

Hunter’s pick: New York Giants

Game to Watch

Mario: Dallas at Pittsburgh

Parker: Seattle at New England

Mike: Atlanta at Philadelphia

Hunter: Seattle at New England
