NFL 2022 Week 3 Picks

 Hello readers! Another week of National Football League action is coming upon us yet again. Last week provided proof that no lead is ever safe. Letting off the gas for just a brief moment for any team could spell doom for you. May this week be a better showing for those who have leads and hold onto them. In this week's picks post I'll do a preview of Week 3 and my picks for the week's games. Let's get to work!

Week 3 Preview

Week 3 of the NFL's regular season will start in Cleveland, Ohio and finish up in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The week will feature a 16-game slate where all 32 teams will play. It will have a Thursday night game, nine early games, four late games a Sunday night game and a Monday night game. FOX will have the doubleheader this week and CBS will have the single, regional game this week. Let's get to the picks.
