We’ve thrown darts for six years and giving you a winning season in five of those years. Let’s see how it goes this time along.

As always, we’ll be using the line from Yahoo Football Pick’Em. We won’t use games if they move off the board. Share your picks in the comments, play along. Five weekly picks, that’s all we ask.

Scott Pianowski

— Detroit +7.5: Fully expect Lions will move the ball at Green Bay, and I can’t trust Packers offense to spot this much lumber until they show something.

— Buffalo +4.5: Going ugly with a team no one wants to back right now. Sometimes it’s about holding your nose and taking an ugly home dog.

— Cincinnati -3: Let’s see what Trevor Siemian is ready to do in his first road start. Cincinnati still a very sound team A to Z.

— New Orleans -3: They’re obviously more fun at home and the Falcons defense can still be pushed around.

— Washington +4.5: I love taking underdogs in this division; no one is scared of anyone else’s home field.
