Last week Green Bay over St Louis was everyone's lock of the week (Sorry Sammy). Turned out Tampa Bay over New Orleans was the upset of the week (in spite of no Gerald McCoy).

OK, pick one Lock of the Week (straight up - no pointspread) and one Upset of the Week (underdog wins straight up - no points)

One point earned if your lock wins and -5 if it loses (hey, it's a LOCK).

Three points earned if your underdog wins, nothing if it loses.

Who is king of the picks for the rest of the season?

Favorites listed first.
10/23 1:00 ET Chicago -1 Tampa Bay
10/23 1:00 ET At Carolina -2.5 Washington
10/23 1:00 ET San Diego -2 At NY Jets
10/23 1:00 ET At Cleveland -3 Seattle
10/23 1:00 ET At Tennessee -3 Houston
10/23 1:00 ET At Miami -1.5 Denver
10/23 1:00 ET At Detroit -3.5 Atlanta
10/23 4:05 ET At Oakland -4 Kansas City
10/23 4:05 ET Pittsburgh -3.5 At Arizona
10/23 4:15 ET At Dallas -12.5 St. Louis
10/23 4:15 ET Green Bay -9 At Minnesota
10/23 8:30 ET At New Orleans -14 Indianapolis
10/24 8:35 ET Baltimore -7.5 At Jacksonville

I don't know...we managed to trade away our best player for a 5th or 6th round pick. Plus Tebow is starting. It will no doubt be a suck fest!

Lock: Baltimore over Jax
Upset: Atlanta over Detroit

Atlanta beating Detroit in Detroit. I can't see it. It wasn't like them having that short week to prepare for the 49ers. 49ers lucked out playing two teams coming off Monday Night games back to back.

Baltimore and Dallas (although I hate to say it) - Locks
NY Jets - Upset

As much as I love my Packers, they are NEVER a lock to win at the Metrodome, no matter how young, incompetent or Favre the opposing quarterback is.

Lock: Nawlins over Indy
Upset: Chicago over Tampa (if that is even considered one)

I just posted the Sunday games on vBookie if you would like to test your locks/upsets out :)

It's my upset pick. I do think it will be a close game though. The biggest thing is how will Detroit respond to their first loss

Badger,

Chicago is listed as a 1 point favorite here, so it wouldn't classify as an upset.

I'm +1 or -2 but I have the satisfaction of being on the right side of one of them. :)
