This is a tough one. The Steelers are a team that strangely rises to the occasion when you least expect then falls flat on their face when they should win. Now they beat the Rams on the road and the Raiders. Maybe TNF will mean they will get physical.

I have found the Steelers almost, if not the hardest team to pick this season. Out of spite I picked the Titans too.

Where are Poppa San's picks?

He is still celebrating last week. He will probably submit in a day or so.

He got his picks into the Week 9 Picks Thread that Voyaguer sent out. I entered the thread under the category General when I should have used NFL Discussions as the category. My first week on the new job.

Hey, Cheddar. Looks like you got the Commanders Pats right!! Congrats to you and Poppa San this week. The race is really tight and season only about halfway there.

Poppa San hit the 24-17 score for the Saints Bears game. You had a couple of close ones.

It's too bad that we had so many quitters early on. Just a few score bingos and they'd be back in it.

I still cannot figure why I called the Saints win at 23 instead of 24. I kept thinking they were now a team that had to settle for 3s like against us.

The Bears give up sevens instead of threes, perhaps.

WHOA! And then how the heck does Minny pull that one out? And the Commanders? I lost those 2 very late. Thankfully, Houston worked a miracle in the last minute and Philly hung on.

It was one of the easier weeks for picking. Poppa San will has a crack at an additional 40 points if the Jets win tonight.

Oops, maybe I shouldn't have commented on that one.

Great job! Those Bills should not have gone for 2. They knew Poppa needed the 17 number. Jets really flopped tonight.
