Going into Week 3, the FanSided office hopes to get some NFL picks right and avoid being laid off.

This week, the NFL picks are certainly much more uniform than we have seen over the first two weekends. Of the 16 games being played in Week 3, our 10 panelists agree on six of them across the board.

Nobody believes that the Buffalo Bills, Minnesota Vikings, Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, San Francisco 49ers or Los Angeles Rams can win. Of course, that means they all will. There are some split-decisions as well. The panel is even on the Kansas City Chiefs and New York Jets, along with the San Diego Chargers and Indianapolis Colts.

We are also giving the Denver Broncos all kinds of credit for their start. Denver is 2-0 and facing the Cincinnati Bengals as a road underdog, and yet we have a 6-4 split in favor of the Broncos getting it done.

Here are the selections, with our overall records in order at the bottom:
