NFL picks: Take the Over(ton)
Lingo decided he didn't want to make this a two-man race, flippin' the scrip' on the 6-10 record he posted two weeks ago with a 10-6 mark last week. Of course, Overton drops 10 wins like he's the Dallas Cowboys or something (if they'd allow the Cowboys to play 10 times a week, that is). Overton went 10-6 for the second straight week, moving to a lofty 11 games above .500. Anyone else smell a bad week?
Last week
Overton: 10-6
Lingo: 10-6
Clay: 7-9
Season standings
Overton: 41-30-2
Clay: 39-32-2
Lingo: 36-35-2
