Florio’s pick: Lions 42, Vikings 13. Simms’s pick: Lions 35, Vikings 17. Panthers at Packers (-13.5) The Packers are starting to believe they’re as good as they are. Florio’s pick: Packers 24, Panthers 10. Simms’s pick: Packers 24, Panthers 16.

It’s officially the second half of the season, which is honestly unbelievable. Once again we had an absolutely brutal Week 8 around the league with this unpredictable season giving us a firm kick in the gut. The best record for picks last week was 9-4.

Coming off an easy Week 8 win thanks to the Chiefs steamrolling the Commanders, I'm rolling with a matchup that could be just as lopsided between the Los Angeles Rams and New Orleans Saints depending on how good (or not good) rookie quarterback Tyler Shough is in his first career start.

Missing the playoffs with last year's Miami roster was an indictment on Mario Cristobal; doing it with the 2025 Hurricanes roster is unforgivable.
