Hello and welcome to the Cahawkers podcast. Week 8 picks. Adam, it's going to be the perfect week this week. I have a feeling. Well, I was actually going to suggest at the beginning of this, that you're going to go 100% this week and i may go 0% just because i feel bad about how badly it went for you last week

if uh if you do go 0% and i go 100 then i'll at least catch up and uh maybe it makes for a

more competitive season of picking against one another. That's exactly right.

So, yeah, just doing that. You know, I want to give you a chance. I want you to feel good about your picks going forward here. Make it fun going on the stretch. I don't need your pity picks. Yeah, they are. They're pity picks, man. And you don't get to choose whether or not you get to take it. How are we going to go 0% if we both picked the Vikings here on Thursday night?

And as of right now, I guess maybe if they tie as it is 14, 14, 14 almost to halftime, maybe that's how it ends up happening.

Yeah, maybe that's it. Well, and to be fair, I made my Thursday night pick before I decided to, you know,

have pity picks for you.

So we'll see how it goes.

I don't know.

All right.

Well, we will see how it goes.

There you are with the Vikings already posted up there.

And let's kick things off with the Sunday morning games.

No London game this week.

We're kicking things off with Ravens at the Browns.

New quarterback for the Browns this week.

Yeah.

And Deshawn out forever.

It sounds like for the Browns, couldn't happen to a nicer guy. I know a lot of the players were upset that their fans were happy that Deshaun Watson got hurt. And I think they need to stop crying about it. I do. But that said, they're going to be doing a lot of crying anyways because this Ravens offense is just unstoppable right now. I love their cell of ball. Derek Henler, he looks like he's

25. Lamar's chucking it all around the field, looking like he's going for a third MVP.

Yeah, I mean, everybody's going Ravens here, right? All the experts going Ravens 8 to 0 and how much of the, the Ravens favored by eight and a half points in this game and somehow that doesn't seem like enough.

It doesn't seem like enough, but to Marlon's point here, I mean, is it Winston or is it DTR?
