Dave Portnoy and some of his Barstool Sports friends were in Chicago this weekend. Most of the Barstool Advisors picked the Bears (+7) to cover, and they got mauled, as did Portnoy and Co. with their Week 3 picks. Portnoy went 1-5 overall.
Stu Feiner, Dan “Big Cat” Katz, and Portnoy’s “mortal locks” all lost for the second straight week.
Los Angeles Chargers vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Dave Portnoy
The pick: Chargers +6.5
“The play here is clearly the Chiefs. I like the Chargers because I like the Chiefs. Man in the suit is back.”
Stu
The pick: Chargers +6.5
“Chargers are the best team in the NFL. Justin Herbert is going to win the MVP. The Chiefs have no defense. All they have is Pat Mahomes is running around. Chargers smash them outright. I love the moneyline but not touching it.”
Big Cat
The pick: Chiefs -6.5
“I love the Chiefs because of everything that was just said. This is such a classic everyone is looking at the Chargers. I guarantee the Chiefs are going to win this by 10+ points.”
Final score: Chargers 30, Chiefs 24
New Orleans Saints vs. New England Patriots
Dave
The pick: Patriots -3
“Mac Jones is still the best of the rookie quarterbacks. Saints look like dog poo.”
Stu
The pick: Saints +3
“I was wrong last week. But in this game Jamies Winston is going to light up Belichick’s non-existent defense and roll into New England and kill them.”
Big Cat
The pick:Patriots -3, Under 42
“Because of what Tommy said, Patriots’ under is 13-5 since Brady left.”
Final score: Saints 28, Patriots 13
Chicago Bears vs. Cleveland Browns
Dave
The pick: Bears +7
“We (Barstool) are going to be in Chicago and I’m not gonna root against them. I think the Browns are a square play.”
Stu
The pick: Browns -7
“I think the Browns put it all together and humiliate the Bears in a 30-point rout.”
Big Cat
The pick: Bears +7
“I’m taking the 7 too.”
Final score: Browns 26, Bears 6
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Los Angeles Rams
Dave
The pick: Buccaneers -1.5
“I love the Rams in this game…you know what though…give me the Bucs. The Rams are the play. I love – the – Rams. Going with..the Bucs.”
Stu
The pick: Rams +1.5
“The Bucs are going to get obliterated in this game. Jalen Ramsey is going to kill Tom Brady. You are going to die and be with Gisele. Rams in a rout. Rams by 46…no 45. I think the Bucs might get shutout.”
Big Cat
The pick: Bucs -1.5
Final score: Rams 34, Buccaneers 24
Green Bay Packers vs. San Francisco 49ers
Dave
The pick: Niners -3.5
“I like the Niners. That’s all I got….” then he changed his pick to the Packers..then back on the Niners.
Stu
The pick: no pick
Big Cat
The pick: Packers +3.5
“I like the Packers. I think +3.5 is the wrong number. The Packers aren’t as bad they looked Week 1.”
Final score: Packers 30, 49ers 28
Barstool Week 3 “mortal locks”
Dave
The pick: Jets +10.5
“I don’t think the Jets are as bad as that score indicated. I don’t think the Broncos should be a 10-point favorite to anybody. Love the mantra of the team – “all gas no brakes.”
Final score: Broncos 26, Jets 0
Stu
The pick: New York Giants -3
“The greatest 0-2 team in the history of the NFL is the New York Giants. They should be 2-0. Atlanta is the worst team in the NFL.”
Final score: Falcons 17, Giants, 14
Big Cat
The pick: Lions Ravens OVER 50
“I don’t like this play…i f-ing love this play. When all else fails, you take the over. The Lions can’t stop anyone and the Ravens are beat up defensively.”
Final score: Ravens 19, Lions 17
