The A2k NFL "Pick-um" game is back for 2018/19

http://www.strangerootsstyle.com/home/best-sandwiches-in-dallas

Are you even in Dallas is you don't get the meat sweats once a week? At Cattleack you can get all the melt-in-your-mouth joys of BBQ layered into a sandwich. This is a juicy, fatty pile of perfection. You don't have to worry about having a group of people to help you eat pounds of brisket, pulled pork and sausage. I'm not judging if you can eat all that by yourself. If anything I'm proud of you. For the rest of us there is the Toddfather.
Pro tip: Get there earlier than you think you should. The line gets very long.

Fluffernutter?

Marshmallow Fluff may have been invented in Somerville, but if that's what
come to The Commonweath to eat, I pity you.

Hopefully it’s not for the baked beans, having long ago departed Boston.

My list of best local sandwiches:

* Fried Clam Roll -- The Clam Box, Ipswich
* The Double Chinwich -- Double Chin HK Café (owned by the Chin sisters), Boston Chinatown
* Carlo's Original Italian Sub -- Carlo's, East Boston (sound like a local and call it a "spuckie")
* Atomic Meatloaf Meltdown -- All Star Sandwich Bar, Cambridge

Well it's not getting any easier to make these picks so here goes nothing.
Maxine picks follow:

Thurs Night game:
NE Patsos

Sunday's games:
Tenn Titanics
Cincy Bunglers
Balt Ravenous
GB Pack'em-Ups
KC Chieftains
Denver Blancos
Atlanta Falcons
Carolina Panties
LA Charge-offs
Philly Iggles
SF 49-ers

Here are my picks:

Thursday night Game
NE Pats

Sunday Games
TN
Cincy
Balt
GB
KC (asked a nearby expert for advice here)
Denver (Jets are very charitable in giving away points)
Pitts
Carol
LA Chargers
Philly
SF (can't decide here. QB Rosen isn't ready yet, though)
LA Rams
Hou ('Boys have only one real offensive weapon. Texans are improving)

Monday night Game
NO
Tiebreaker 27-20

Littlebit has informed me that he is taking Buffalo.

He missed picking that one initially.

Holding my breath 'til Pats-Colts game starts. Also I'm holding my breath 'til Edelman breaks for big yardage and a TD or two. Edelman's return means defenses have to cover someone (explosive) besides Gronk. Good Luck with that one! (pun intended)

So, I'll take any kind of a win here by the Pats but here's my prediction:
Patriots 33, Colts 23

New England
Buffalo
Cinn
Baltimore
Detroit
KC
Denver
Pitts
Giants
Chargers
Philly
San Fran
Rams
Houston
New Orleans 28-24

New England for tonight

Almost forgot to put Lightning's pick on here. He takes New England.

fluffernutters better not let us down

Some of the receivers on both sides would have done well to have a
fluffernutter before the game -- and not cleaned their hands after.

I alternated watching this game and Rockets basketball.

I think Rosen's ready. The question is whether his receiving corp is ready.
