Colts (-1.5) at Patriots

Pats are undefeated in games played outside the USA. That will continue.

49ers (-3) at Jaguars

Spotted Cats have no use for gold, silly Prospectors and Brock Purrrdy. Jaguars win.

Saint Gertrude of Nivelles is the patron saint of cats. But the Vikings will make with the marauding.

What a great game! Thirty years ago. Steelers prevail.

First off, I did not make that Thursday pick. Only an idiot would bet against the Steelers at home. Someone is going to pay.

SUNDAY SECOND BREAKFASTTIME

Dolphins at Chiefs (-1.5)

Porps haven’t beaten a good team yet. Chiefs are good. Figure it out.

Evil black birds take down the false seabirds.

Cardinals at Browns (-8)

Trickester Browns pull one over on the pretty birds.

Rams at Packers (-3.5)

A hot seat sounds like a lovely place to take a nap. Rams win.

Texas has wildcats. Works for me. Houston will not have a problem.

The path to 6-6 starts by landing on your paws. Pats get the necessary win.

The 1982 movie ‘Cat People’ took place in New Orleans. Saints win.

Way to win but not cover, Bisons.

Texans (-3) at Panthers

Did the Big Black Cats break a mirror and earn six games of bad luck? If so, that continues to seven.

Rams at Cowboys (-6)

Pokes too tough at home for the Rams.

Vikings (-1) at Packers

Vikings liked having cats. This cat picks the Vikes.

Two teams of indoor cats. Sad. Go Horse, I guess.

Jets (-3) at Giants

Imagine the indignity of having to use the visiting locker room in your own facility? Giants win.

Jaguars (-2.5) at Steelers

Jacksonville continues to roll.

Falcons (-3) at Titans

Tians in the Oilers throwbacks. Oil prospectors are wildcatters. Good enough to beat a bird team.

False Birds ekes out a home win.

Ravens (-8) at Cardinals

You bet on the cat team, right? Good.

Browns (-2.5) at Colts

Cleveland’s fans call themselves the Dawg Pound, but a Brownie is a smallish, mischief-making creature? Say no more!

Bills (-9) at Patriots

Coach Bill needed a cat making his draft picks, not a weird little dog. Bills win.

Commanders (-2.5) at Giants

A hairball of a matchup. Giants.

Same thing. Fruity pirates prevail.

SUNDAY SUNDOWN:

Steelers at Rams (-3)

I could knock so many more things off shelves and tables if I had horns like a ram. They win.

Cardinals at Seahawks (-7.5)

If a Seahawk was a real bird, it would outclass a Cardinal. That’s the expected result here as well.

Packers (-1) at Broncos

Saints at Texans (+1.5) The Texans shut out the Saints just to rile up the Patriots pregamers.

SUNDAY SUNDOWN

Patriots at Raiders (-3) The Patriots win and their fanz immediately start complaining about it harming their 2024 draft position.

Two teams going in different directions.

Late night snack game:

Pokes are a wagon, bro.

Monday Game:

Packers (-1) at Raiders

It’s Thurrsday again! Gonna pick the one game tonight. Hope you big dumb humans can figure out meow to watch the game! Right, Zo?

Bears at (-6) Commanders

If I remember my Jungle Book correctly, cats and bears don’t get along very well. Plus the Bears stink and have to travel on a short week. So the Commandos win.

I’ll get to the rest of the picks later. Miao for now!

I’ve had a long week of eating and napping, so let’s get these contractually obligated picks out of the way so I can get back to eating and napping…

While you were sleeping:

Lions (-1.5) at Packers

It was so obvious I was going to pick the big cats last night that it wasn’t worth my precious time to let you know.

Sunday brunch time:

Falcons at Jaguars (-3)

Always go with cats over birds.

Sunday lunch time:

Dolphins at Bills (-2.5)

Did you know that Tua’s full name is Tuanigamanuolepola Donny Tagovailoa? Someone in that family was really hoping he’d go by Donny. Donny wins again.

Vikings (-4.5) at Panthers

Always go with winless cats over winless marauding Norsemen.

Broncos (-3.5) at Bears

The Broncos lose again but hold the Bears to under 70. Baby steps.

Ravens at Browns (-3)

Always go with a predator (even a sexual predator) over birds.

Steelers (-2.5) at Texans

After the Texans win, have a drink every time someone from the Steelers reminds you that they aren’t using their team plane’s emergency landing as an excuse.

Rams (-1) at Colts

I took 3 naps just thinking about this game. Go horszzzzzz!

Buccaneers at Saints (-3)

Fun fact: Much like Atlantis, Tampa Bay doesn’t exist as a physical location on land. The mermen win.

Commanders at Eagles (-8)

I hate picking a bird team, but I refuse to root for commies.

Bengals (-2.5) at Titans

Cats over tits, but I do love looking at tits. (Tits the bird, you perverts).

Sunday dinner time:

Raiders at Chargers (-5.5)

Sounds like Chandler Jones got some bad catnip – thoughts and prayers. Chargers beat a distracted Raiders team.

Patriots at Cowboys (-6.5)

Mac Jones has such a penchant for crotch shots that he must be part cat. Pats over Pokes.

Cardinals at 49ers (-14)

Always go with Brock Purrrdy over birds.

Sunday nighttime snack:

Chiefs (-9.5) at Jets

Taylor Swift loves cats, and nobody likes the Jets.

Monday:

Seahawks at Giants (-1)

Take the men with overactive pituitary glands.

Just a reminder that Week 4 of the NFL season kickoffs off my birthday month. How about some gratitude for all this free gambling advice? Look for me on CashApp.

It’s late September, can you believe it? My cat birthday is next month, buy me food. Although, I have no concept of time, we’re already here at Week 3. It’s still too early to predict how things are shaping up for the Kitten Bowl.

Giants at 49ers (-10)
Brock Richard Purdy throws for 400 yards. If you take the approximate height of cans of delicious cat food served by my slave humans, that’s around almost a stack of 5,800 cans. Food food food. Give me food now.

Colts at Ravens (-2)
I don’t like anything about the Baltimore bird team, but they get the win. I feel like I’m rooting for a mouse getting into my bag of dry food. Still, give me my wet food now or I’ll destroy the couch!

Titans (-1) at Browns
Dogs are big dumb animals and they belong in a pound. Go bark at the wind.

Falcons at Lions (-7.5)
Coach Campbell wanted to have a big cat on the sideline. If I played for the highly intelligent Lions, he’d want me to punch the competition, but my claws of death will have to do.

Saints (-10) at Packers
If you adopt a cat, you’re a saint. Come on Dennis Allen, go to a shelter today.

Feed me, pet me, leave me alone.

Texans (-2) at Jaguars
I don’t want to pick against a cat, but it can happen sometimes. Florida isn’t a good environment for outdoor cats due to snakes, alligators, and hillbillies.

Broncos at Dolphins (-8.5)
Coach Genius and Tua lead the fish to victory. Can we have some dolphin meat for me to eat?

Chargers at Vikings (-2.5)
Yawn, who cares. Time for a nap in my pile of blankets or buy me a new toy that I’ll refuse to play with for 5 months. Remember the Metrodome? I would love to claw that roof.

Patriots (-1) at Jets
The Patriots O Line comes together like Thunder Cats and protects Mac Jones to let him cook his kitty food. Zach Wilson will throw 5 interceptions. He’s like a dumb dog.

Bills at Commanders (-2.5)
Cats run the world and will someday take command of all humans.

Panthers (-1) at Seahawks
Going with Team Panthers in this matchup of a vastly superior cat vs. more dumb birds that eat dead fish.

Cowboys (-8.5) at Cardinals
Sorry birds are dumb and I want to attack them. Predicting a breakout game from Dorance Armstrong.

Bears at Chiefs (-3.5)
Kelce returns and brags to his teammates about dating Taylor Swift. What’s her view on kitty cats?

Steelers at Raiders (-1)
I don’t like all those water fountains in Vegas but they get the win.

MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
Are you ready for a kitty food party? Actually I hate all other animals and don’t want a party. Where’s my favorite green blanket?

Eagles (-8.5) at Buccaneers
Philadelphia Freedom. Sorry pirate team, but no treasure for you this week. Speaking of being out to sea, I could go for some salmon pate right about now. If it’s chopped salmon, I’ll only look at my bowl of food and refuse to eat it.

Rams (-3.5) at Bengals
I feel like a traitor picking against big kitty cats.

Cleaning out the Litter Box
Restaurant pick of the week: The Weathervane. Exciting, hip atmosphere and seafood.
