This season of pickmaking had been a struggle already. But after a disastrous pickset last week, in which I got only three picks right and blew both my Lock and my Upset, I’m feeling downright lost. How can I trust my instincts, or my research, in the face of results like this? I’m standing at […]

This year’s NFC has been defined by early-season disappointments, with the Philadelphia Eagles and Atlanta Falcons failing to follow up promising seasons and even more promising offseasons.
