The Standings
Welp, everybody chose the hivemind way to go and made the exact same picks, so no gains or losses this week, just like the AFCS standings! Four more games to pick from in week 11, but a few unpredictable games may shake up the standings by next Tuesday:
HOU @ DAL: Oh boy, another prime time matchup for the tinhorns, Dak is out and things aren't looking great for Jerruh's kids. Does Collins return and help the tinhorns get back in the win column?
IND @ NYJ: Richardson is not good. Flacco is not good. On the other hand, you got the Jest, which uh, not good. If you have either team figured out, congrations, you done it.
JAX @ DET: This game broadcast should be rated TV-MA for the gore and violence that will likely ensue. The Jags have somehow kept games close while still losing, don't expect that to happen this week.
MIN @ TN: If Darnold manages to toss three picks again, the tacks may have a chance. Then again, we're talking about the tacks.
I already have cland's picks (tinhorn win, all others lose) recorded. My picks:
tinhorns 24 POKES 13: If we weren't so miserable this year, I might enjoy Dallas being inept. Alas.
JEST 20 indynoplace 14 (OT): Richardson throws a pick-six to end the game.
LOINS 42 duval 10: Boom. At this point, the question is whether there's anything salvageable out of this season. If it's a blowout, I expect the give-up to hit early, and the firings to begin. If we somehow keep it close (don't ask how, I am not THAT creative), we may have to wait till January for any of the guard to change.
vikes 12 tacks (H) 8: tacks score a garbage time TD and go for two just to think they are better than Duval.
Texans over Cowboys
Jets over Colts
Lions over Jaguars
Vikings over Titans
vikeings
jets
Lions
Texans
then i will have to take the same picks as you to stay in first with you. Its not time for me to take the lead by myself yet.

Texans
Jets
Lions

all hail hivemind! AFCS is poop this year.
I keep trying to find a game where I want to go against the consensus, but it's been tough. I came close on the Colts this week, then I realized I'd be picking Anthony Richardson on the road against Aaron Rogers - UGH. The other one was the Minnesota Sam Darnolds at Tennessee. Probably a coin flip game. What happened, Snowy? You been listening to Yusuf Islam?:
It's not time to make a change
Just relax, take it easy
You're still young, that's your fault
There's so much you have to know

Haha, me too. I slipped out of first place by a game and am trying to find a spot, but with the schedule the past few weeks it's been pretty obvious.
Oh, I think there will be an upset this week, I just don't know which game. Even Dallas could upset Houston. The only sure loser is the Jags.
this is the best i have ever done in the afc south pickem, so i have to do my best to keep picking the winners.
Yeah, better play it safe. There's a lot at stake here LOL

A. A. Ron has a worse starting record with the Jest than Zach Wilson or Sam Darnold.
