Joe Manniello's Week 3 NFL picks

If Yogi Berra was an NFL analyst, he might say: The season can get late real early. There are seven 0-2 teams, and only five 0-3 teams have made the playoffs since 1980.

Underdogs went 9-5 against the spread in Week 2 (there were two pick 'em lines), and six won outright. Underdogs are 18-11-1 against the spread this season, but this could be the week that favorites have a say.

My most confident picks ATS this week are the Patriots, Jaguars, Chiefs and Seahawks. Three tricky games to avoid: Packers-Redskins, Broncos-Ravens and Giants-Texans.
