Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another week of NFL picks. It’s Week 3, can you believe it? Time flies when you’re having fun, and boy, have we had some fun already this season. We’ve seen some crazy upsets, some amazing individual performances, and some teams really showing us what they’re made of.

So, I started off by looking at the schedule for this week, all 16 games, it’s a lot to take in! I dove into the matchups, considering things like who’s playing at home, who’s coming off a big win, and who might be dealing with some injuries. I mean, every game means so much to these teams, you know?
Scrolled through a bunch of articles and expert opinions, seeing what others are thinking. Lamar Jackson is setting records, that guy is a beast! Some folks are betting on the underdogs, which is always interesting, right? There’s this one analyst, Iain MacMillan, who’s got a best bet for every game. Might check that out later.
Then, I started to form my own opinions. Taking all that information and mixing it with my gut feeling, that’s how I roll. It’s like cooking, you gotta find the right balance of ingredients. Some teams are looking strong, like the Saints and Vikings, early surprises for sure. Others, well, they gotta step it up.
Considered some specific matchups more closely. For example, Justin Herbert might play for the Chargers despite an ankle injury. And Jim Harbaugh as the coach, that’s a storyline to follow. Thought about how these factors might affect the outcome.
I put together my picks, game by game. It’s not just about who I think will win, but also how confident I am in each pick. It’s a tricky business, but that’s what makes it exciting!

Finally, I double-checked everything. Made sure I didn’t miss any important news or last-minute changes. Then, boom, my Week 3 straight-up picks are ready to go.
Now, I’m not saying I’m always right, nobody is. But I put in the work, I do my research, and I give it my best shot. That’s all you can ask for, right? So, stay tuned for my detailed breakdown of each game, and let’s see how my picks pan out. It’s gonna be another wild week of football, folks, I can feel it!
- Watched some highlights from previous weeks to get a sense of team momentum.
- Jotted down notes on each team’s strengths and weaknesses.
- Compared my initial thoughts with those of other experts to see where we agree and disagree.

It’s a process, you know? But it’s a process I enjoy. And sharing it with you all, that’s the best part. Let’s get ready for some football!
