Football Cat’s Week 4 NFL Picks 2026

Back off man, I’m a scientist

The calendars may gave flipped to October, but our top scientists at CoCoRaHSS have discovered a strange atmospheric phenomenon, emanating out of One Patriot Place, resulting in all of New England being transported back to Mid-Maye!

Mid-Maye

The “Community Collaborative Rain, Hail, Snow and Suck Network”, more commonly known as CoCoRaHSS (pronounced KO-ko-rozzzzzzz), is a grassroots volunteer network of backyard football/weather observers of all ages and backgrounds, working together to map precipitation and piss poor quarterbacking in their local communities.

Football Cat’s Week 3 NFL Picks 2026

There’s a storm brewin’

🚨 A Storm Team 15 Weather Alert! 🚨

If that crazy, fat, bald, old man who lives alone in his creepy basement apartment has seemed extra irritable lately, it’s not only because he’s been getting his teeth kicked in on Twitter every day (although that’s 99% of the reason). It’s also because his rheumatism is probably acting up due to the impending Nor’easter (that and his eleven meniscus surgeries).

Nor’easter Preparedness Tips:

  • Stock Up on the 4 B’s: Beer, Bread, Batteries and Beer
  • Secure the Exterior: Bring patio furniture, garbage cans, and any small children indoors
  • Protect Windows: Baseball season isn’t over, but it might be time to install the storm windows
  • Clear Drainage: Send your wife up the ladder to clean out the gutters and downspouts
  • Vehicle Prep: Keep your gas tank full. Remember, much like your beer fridge: “half full is empty”
  • Check on Your Elderly Neighbors: They may have some extra beer
Hang in there

Stay safe, keep your paws dry, and remember: if the house blows away, you still have eight lives left.

09/23/26 Cleaning Out the Sports Junk Drawer

Just sling it?

Were people expecting a Zolak to be good at quarterbacking?

In early May, the idea that the Red Sox would need to buy champagne and beer to celebrate making the playoffs seemed preposterous. Let them have their moment.

Ironically, Caleb Williams has to not play this weekend to look like less of a pussy.

Nothing more basic than a “my sport is tougher” pissing match.

The Patriots not only didn’t lose, they actually won!

Baseball savants: Today is the 118th anniversary of Fred Merkle’s alleged “boner.” The rest of you don’t give a shit.

Tommy DeVito was excited in the locker room. Why? He got Aaron Rodgers’ jersey.

Saw an alligator on my way to Starbucks. Owning.

Subaru Sue O’Connell has more sick relatives than Manny Ramirez.

Cakes are cooking for Julio Iglesias, Steve Boone, Neal Smith, Bruce Springsteen, Maren Jensen, Larry Mize, Marvin Lewis, Jason Alexander, John Harbaugh, Mark Woodforde, Pete Harnisch, Jeff Cirillo, Tapio Laukkanen, Ani DiFranco, Karl Pilkington, Anthony Mackie, Keri Lynn Pratt, Anneliese van der Pol, Matt Kemp, Joba Chamberlain, Brandon Jennings, and Maleah Joi Moon.

Tortilla chips can be the oyster crackers of chili if you do it right.

He was too old by that point, but I’ve always thought Paul Newman would’ve been perfect for the Frank Costello role in The Departed. Not a huge fan of Nicholson’s performance.

My dog, Clavicular, is sure enjoying the cooler temps outside today.

Michael Lombardi started a Substack. Football Done Right is where my NFL writing lives now: the Tuesday review, the Friday Lombardi Look Ahead, QB and power ratings, and deep dives like this one on why Dan Campbell has never fixed the Lions defense. Free and paid tiers.

Brit soccer fans would have had a multi-stanza “Rodgers Can’t Fuck” chant good to go, Pats fans. Just sayin’.

These last 6 Red Sox games feel like NFL Preseason Game #3.

Green Line: Due to signal modernization work there will be no service between North Station & Babcock St (B), Kenmore (C+D), & Heath St (E) Sep 26 – Oct 4. Use buses for service to Copley/Back Bay. Use Orange Line between Back Bay & North Station.

How you all feel watching Tolle on the hill is exactly how I feel watching The Butchie.

Can we be honest here? Sydney Sweeney was not chosen for the ad as a “representation of women in sport,” she was chosen for the ad because they’re trying to sell a gambling app to 18-24 year old males who masturbate frequently.

Japan is an amazing place.

Hey gang of tough love givers, ‘this week’s Phrase that Pays is, “stop calling girls hon. It’s disgusting.”

If I’m the Patriots I bring back Joe Milton III to put pressure on Drake Maye’s job. Drake is quickly becoming the athletic version of Mac Jones.

Let’s all agree to stop acknowledging Guyliner from Braintree.

Why did Nantz making it sound like it’s a big deal that a defensive lineman never had a TD in college?

In the wee, wee hours
Your mind gets hazy
Radio relay towers
Gon’ lead me to my baby.
The radio’s jammed up
With talk show stations
It’s just talk, talk, talk, talk
‘Til you lose your patience.

Mister state trooper
Please don’t stop me.


Colorado native Tim Miller had to wear an ole Miss shirt today because his beloved LSU lost. what a scamp!

Another solid game from Will Campbell.

Sometimes my mustache bothers me, but I can’t shave it cause then I’d look Amish.

Rachel Dratch, you still got it, kid.

License to Ill was revolutionary Mort. It was the REAL 1st rap album to cross over into suburbia and was the genesis for rap becoming mainstream.

Tape measures in America have centimeters.

You just can not take New York City seriously as long as it continues to air JEOPARDY! before “Wheel Of Fortune”.

Angel Reese is genuinely Tim Duncan.

New investigation for UNC: Does Bill Belichick steal Kristi Noem’s husband’s fetish? If UNC worms its way out of that contract, he could always do Walking Bets.

The Red Sox no longer have an interim manager but they still have an interim Citgo sign.

Tom is going to have a toothpick in his mouth and a pack of smokes rolled up in his sleeve when he calls the game next week. Edgy!

Loop Loc has a variety of color ways and styles that accentuate your pool area in style and safety.

Honk if you remember when Cheryl Ladd replaced Farrah Fawcett on Charlie’s Angels.

That guy over there, he looks like the woodchuck Joey Gladstone used to fist on Full House.

I see Todd Helton got a zesty statue.

Dan Campbell is an idiot’s idea of a great coach, style over substance.

Tell that one Freiermuth story again.

“Someone else’s business” is certainly one way to describe being a homewrecker.

The Entitled Town Podcast is my only source for WNBA playoff predictions except for the rest of the internet.

Best bet for the weekend: raingear.

You WILL get wet.

Material from interviews, wire services, Twitter, Meta, other writers, league and team sources, David Burge, Joe Giza, and the members of #the15 were used in this column. Glory Days.

Bianca doesn’t want summer to end, either.

09/02/26 Cleaning Out the Sports Junk Drawer

Tough outing.

Eh. Scheduled loss.

Mainstream CFB writers being introduced to a BB team winning a rock fight is delightful. And 15-10 is like a perfect Belichick win. Pisses off exactly all the right people.

All these trust fund kids circle jerking over how little they made in their useless media jobs isn’t at all triggering.

They weren’t booing Páez, they were still cheering on Woo!

In the back of my mind I thought the Pro Bowl had been eliminated years ago.

Dolly held the exact same social and political views as me!

I’m not going to be used as a pawn as the two sides piss at each other. If a deal isn’t done by September 9th, then I’ll be livid.

Derek Jeter did not “dive into the stands” to catch a ball. He made a nice running catch in the playing field, and his momentum carried him into the stands. Nice play, but not heroic.

I don’t even know what Good Good is other than redundant.

Note to broadcasters especially in MLB. Please call players by their last names and not their first. Its Rafaela not Cedanne. The trend started years ago and it isn’t a good one.

Since Boston doesn’t have a WNBA team yet, I’ve adopted Golden State as my team strictly because of Veronica Burton. The Valkyries won their third straight last night, and @Veronicaab22 had 13 assists and 0 turnovers. She has 29 assists and 1 turnover during the win streak.

Apropos of nothing, I hope Corey Kiner gets a locker in the corner of the locker room, so we can all call it Kiner’s Korner. #iykyk

Cakes are cooking for Peter Ueberroth, Mary Jo Catlett, Harry Northup, Rosalind Ashford, Nate Archibald, Terry Bradshaw, Rosanna DeSoto, Mark Harmon, Jimmy Connors, Linda Purl, Mario Tremblay, Steve Porcaro, Eric Dickerson, John S. Hall, Jeff Russell, Keanu Reeves, Lenox Lewis, Cynthia Watros, Rich Aurilia, Jason Hammel, Rachael Gunn, and Brandon Ingram.

No one ever talks about how heavily accordion is featured in Mexican music.

The people who hate seeing Kirk Herbstreit’s dog on TV are the same people who drive 5 mph under the speed limit in the left lane. You can’t convince me otherwise.

Hey, didja all hear about this guy who pretended to be a 49ers player? Haven’t seen many people talking about it. Crazy stuff, huh?

Red Line: Delays of about 10 minutes due to an earlier signal problem at Harvard.

I’m sorry but being a WAG is not being a woman in sports.

Omg seriously what is in Mickey’s crotch?

If I wanted to watch sweaty men dance in tight attire, I’d attend a Chippendales show rather than a Savannah Bananas game.

Dad is never using Venmo. You cannot make him.

Yesterday was “rentree” in France, a massive day. ALL of the schools are back in session Mayors and principals were interviewed on television.

Team Gaga btw. Madonna can kick rocks.

The Red Sox fill-in play-by-play guy on radio tonight sounds like Pablo Torre after 1.5 martinis, and I can’t shake it. But excited for the Clippers dirt he’ll have for the 7th inning stretch.

Where does one even acquire an Anduril hat?

The play made by Monasterio is ruled a catch against any other team. fact, not opinion.

Lucy go for a walk or something in Boston we boo if you stink up the joint you don’t like it move to Mars.

Can Elon ban all Barstool-related content? Every video I see is like “Oh man, Scuzzy and Grunch were going at it in the Chicago office today. Apparently one of them hooked up with Kacey Jugzzz at Dave & Buster’s last night? Super crazy. I’m glad Fat Tits Snapback Guy was recording.”

Hey gang of finger lickers, this week’s Phrase that Pays is, “Black buns and mashed potatoes sounds like something I’m not going to image search.”

I hope Jedixson Páez pitches on Section 10 Night.

Feels like I can’t make fun of the Clancy women anymore when there’s a large chunk of dudes convinced Sandusky is innocent.

Well, I hope MLB brings back protesting a game after the lockout season!

Thinking of that fat fucking cvnt Lifshatz calling people retards as his neck fat jiggles from typing is hilarious.

GTA 6 players will need to learn how to maintain a relationship, according to IGN. Don’t you play video games so you don’t have to go shopping with your wife?

I love the Mickey Gasper story as much as the next guy, but I draw the line at “Hey Mickey you’re so fine”

Greg you couldn’t be more wrong about this sub shop take you have in the oven and the Italian subs and all that nonsense.

I’ve found a home with writing haikus. The requirements are oddly helpful.

Bright eyes full of dreams,
Laughter ringing through the air,
Shining proud and free.

Lol you ever looked into toilet paper? If you aren’t using bamboo by now….yikes.

I bet Mike Mussina knows what day this is. I sure do.

Love her, but Heidi Watney should uncinch the screws holding her face back a couple of turns.

A Bill hasn’t defeated Dykes like that since DOMA back in ‘96.

You can tell someone is a football expert when they list a team’s schedule by the quarterbacks they’re going to play.

What time do they lock the Coliseum they got there in Rome for the night?

After a few hours of searching the house (detachable penis)
And calling everyone I could think of
I was starting to get very depressed (detachable penis)
So I went to the Kiev and ate breakfast

Then as I walked down Second Avenue
Towards St. Mark’s place where (detachable penis)
All those people sell used books and other junk on the street
I saw my penis lying on a blanket (detachable penis)
Next to a broken toaster oven
Some guy was selling it (detachable penis)
I had to buy it off him, he wanted 22 bucks (detachable penis)
But I talked him down to $17.

People sure do demand a lot of decorum from a sport where it’s commonplace to gnaw on a wad of tobacco.

What a needy prick Giardi is. Really.

What if Good Good Golf re-shoots the ad but it’s RA getting shoved to the ground?

Rule 5 is usually a synonym for a bum.

Pro Tip: Ham sandwiches get indicted, not North Shore three-way beefs.

Honk if you remember The Jerry Lewis MDA Labor Day Telethon.

I know more about cards than 99.9% of people who own cards. I’ve covered cards for 26 years.

Lomu…..Latu…..Latu….Lomu.

Doesn’t every single gambling ad read on The Ringer end with “must be 21 and present”?

Turn off your radios numrods.

Jamai Webster still occasionally starts a question that he has no idea how to finish.

It’s my favorite time of year. BC could go undefeated!

Best bet for the weekend: buying 7 dozen eggs and 4 gallons of milk.

Take their picks! All of them!!
(N.B. Kansas City won this Week 14, 2019 game 23-16, with Butker 3-3 on field goals, 2-2 on extra points.
)

Material from interviews, wire services, Twitter, Meta, other writers, league and team sources, Joe Giza, Matt Vautour, BSMW Old Friend Humphrey, and the members of #the15 were used in this column. We’re dancing in the streets.

And Happy Birthday to Mexican actress Salma Hayek.

08/05/26 Cleaning Out the Sports Junk Drawer

Sox? Sox!

Jarren Duran hasn’t been this surprised since the gun didn’t go off. What?

New Englanders wait all winter for warm weather just for people to start acting like it’s October in August #lol

You should be publicly flogged for posting Madden ratings.

Imagine committing fraud for Daniel Theis.

Oh to buy a legit Red Sox shirt with my own last name on it.

I bet Romo got pulled over for having that haircut. That’s enough probable cause.

Sure it’s late here after a west coast game, but Rich Hill should have lower energy on the postgame show.

Few if any executives have had a more expansive impact on a sports organization’s business-side success over the past two decades than Tom Garfinkel.

Cakes are cooking for John McCartan, Jo Collins, Bernie Carbo, Eddie “Fingers” Ojeda, Maureen McCormick, Pat Smear, Otis Thorpe, Patrick Ewing, Mark Strong, Adam Yauch, Jeff Coffin, James Gunn, John Olerud, John Wasdin, Eric Hinske, Carl Crawford, LoLo Jones, Paula Creamer, Patrick Reed, and Anthony Edwards.

Why does everyone making “content” (Sideshow Bob groan) use that tiny little microphone you can only hold with two fingers?

The 8K Calorie Challenge, or as Tazzi’s wife calls it, breakfast. HeyOOOOO!

Is this even fun for Dodgers fans? Like yeah, you get all the best players and you’re going to win the World Series, but can that replicate the joy of watching Caleb Durbin lay down a perfect bunt, or Andruw Monasterio line a double to the gap?

Hey gang of gamers, this week’s Phrase that Pays is, “Spent a long time on myrrh”.

Good thing I have plus-plus barrel control.

Red Line: Delays of about 15 minutes due to a signal problem near Harvard. Trains may stand by at stations.

Regarding Roman Anthony: Call me when he has more swings than swigs.

The Invite is a pants-pissingly hilarious movie and funniest of year so far. Seth Rogen and Olivia Wilde pull off hilarious Laurel & Hardy routine as miserable married couple hosting their horny, chill neighbors (Penelope Cruz and Ed Norton) for dinner and hilarity ensues. Wilde is the revelation here though, giving a comedic performance for the ages. Expect some noms.

Dondero really wants you guys to know he played baseball in college.

“I work seven days a week!” like she’s punching the clock at the Pontiac plant and not part-time at whatever the fuck Action Network HQ is.

Soon, Wally will be wearing a Ceddanne Rafaela mask.

My goal in life right now is to cut off the sound of the Toyota singing cowboy commercial before he gets to the second “big.” Most annoying commercial of the year.

Corruption? In Rhode Island? Seems farfetched.

I never had Sweetgreen in my life. It looks like one of those places that puts processed chicken in your salad and tells you you’re eating healthy.

The Patriots are at their best when they have a cannon-armed black QB who has no chance of actually playing.

The Skyhawks is a great name.

Wait, did Merloni do a Pedro imitation using an Asian voice?

Surprised they re-signed Pochettino when guys like Twellman have all the answers.

Tarik Skubal is still white.

Anyone needs me, I’m going to Cumbys to get some toad venom.

So Kyle Shanahan got hit in the face with airbags? Same thing happened to Coach Vrabes and Dianna!

Ohtani lost 45K betting that the Sox would throw at him. Sad.

No matter where I am, every time I see a traffic cone now, I smile thinking of the Scottish invasion of Boston during the World Cup.

I can’t stand it, I know you planned it
I’m gonna set it straight, this Watergate
Lord, I can’t stand rockin’ when I’m in this place
Because I feel disgrace because you’re all in my face
But make no mistakes and switch up my channel
I’m Buddy Rich when I fly off the handle
What could it be? It’s a mirage
You’re scheming on a thing, that’s sabotage.

Please don’t respond to me and tell me to “relax” or “calm down” I’ll block your ass so fast. The audacity of people on this app (men)

News Item: Boston College fired longtime MBB broadcasters because new coach Luke Murray didn’t want anyone tied to old staff. OK, but can he get Meterparel fired too?

The last 2 players to wear number 11 for the Red Sox were traded to the Giants.

My dad heard “Big Pussy died” and immediately called my wife to ask how I killed myself. Very hurtful. RIP.

Bye, Narv.

The 4th Earl of Sandwich didn’t become so degenerate a gambler that he wouldn’t leave the card table to eat supper just to have his name misstated.

Best bet for the weekend: Revs over Dynamo.

“Down by way of the G & T!”

Material from interviews, wire services, Twitter, Meta, other writers, league and team sources, Fearless Farinella, Joe Giza, and the members of #the15 were used in this column. Intergalactic.

And a joyeux anniversaire to French-American actress and author Stéphanie Szostak.

05/06/26 Cleaning Out the Sports Junk Drawer

Of course.

The show that was terrible on WZLX isn’t better on a worse station? Huh.

I’m just saying it’s awfully suspicious that Spirit Airlines went under right before every other sports fan in Boston was ready to drive Jaylen to the airport.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are lucky like Whitey Bulger when it comes to the Draft lottery.

Sports is supposed to be enjoyable but often sports is not.

Where’s the second longest bar in Worcester?

Ted Johnson wearing glasses makes me laugh every time.

Cakes are cooking for Masanori Murakami, Bob Seger, Jimmie Dale Gilmour, Mary MacGregor, David Leestma, Lynn Whitfield, Tony Blair, Tom Bergeron, Tim Simpson, Kate Collins, Julianne Phillips, George Clooney, Roma Downey, Mark Bryan, Martin Brodeur, Brooke Bennett, Edyta Sliwinska, Jason Witten, Adrianne Palicki, Gabourey Sidibe, Chris Paul, Emily Armstrong, Goran Dragić, Meek Mill, Dominika Cibulková, Jose Altuve, Naomi Scott, and Angel Reese.

I didn’t see the exit interview, did Jaylen say something pseudointellectual and glib?

The divorced whore table at the Knights was particularly aggressive the other night. I was focused on the game.

Hey, at least we don’t have to deal with any more stupid streaming-only Celtics playoff games this year.

Hey gang, this week’s Phrase that Pays is, “I love that for them.”

Red Sox with a modest win streak?

Congratulations Stefon Diggs on your courtroom victory. Also; plan on being bankrupt about 5 minutes after retiring.

Green Line C Branch: May 6-17

Shuttle Buses replace service between Cleveland Circle & Kenmore for maintenance. Shuttles will not service Saint Mary’s Street, Kent Street, or Brandon Hall. Riders at Cleveland Circle can use the D Branch at Reservoir.

Does anyone in the world buy the middle tier of gasoline between unleaded and premium? Who is it for?

John Sterling. In life all good things come to an end, Suzyn. Like his shoehorning a Bambino-esque nickname for every Yankee player. RIP.

I stopped following Amaka Ubaka on Facebook tonight.

Divisive denim trend Szn!

Imagine being forced to scrub the floors while Bart Simpson menacingly informs you that your thetans are out of whack.

Punching Austin Reeves should be mandatory.

CVS needs to cool it with the text messages. I’ll pick up my prescriptions when I damn well please.

Buy gayer grass seed.

The Met Gala? Three Gobbles.

I would have watched Jaylen review tape on Twitch but, you know, I don’t have a gaming chair.

I woke last night to the sound of thunder
How far off I sat and wondered?
Started hummin’ a song from 1962
Ain’t it funny how the night moves?
