It is, once again, the time of the week where our staff of learned (pronounced learn-ed) pro football blowhards make their predictions about who they are picking in this week’s games around the National Football League. We had a pretty solid week last week, all in all.
For a look at how we’ve done so far, whether it’s last week or for the season as a whole thus far, here’s our results widget. You can use the drop-downs to take a look at any of the picks we’ve made, whether it’s on a week-by-week basis or for the season as a whole.
With that, here are our picks for Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season. As always, we remind you that any of the lines or numbers you see here may vary based on when each individual selector punched their picks into the system. Always check with your sportsbook of choice before placing any wagers you might be interested in, and our selections here are for entertainment purposes only.
