The NFL is three weeks into the regular season, and we apparently have no clue what is going on.

It’s very hard to pick NFL games and win 10-11 games per week. Our NFL insider and expert Matt Verderame is proving that in spades this year. After going 156-97 last season, he is currently two games UNDER .500. He’s an expert. We should probably fire him.

That said, Verderame and the rest of the crew have plenty of time to get it together. Currently, Mia Khalifa is leading the way, showcasing her vast knowledge of the NFL. Kayla Knierim is also doing quite well, while the rest of the FanSided staff continues to stagger back, trying to get it right.

Here are the picks from last week and the standings so far:

As you can see, nobody got the upset of the Buffalo Bills taking down the Arizona Cardinals at New Era Stadium. It was also a clean sweep in the wrong direction with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who got beaten at home by the Los Angeles Rams. The same can also be said for the Philadelphia Eagles, who are apparently being wildly underrated.
