10 NFL trades that need to happen before

Welcome to the Tuesday edition of the Pick Six Newsletter!I was going to start here by rehashing on last night's Manning Cast, but he used so many curse words that I'm pretty sure I'd get fired if I tried to do it. That being said, the NFL Seattle Seahawks Jersey Manning Cast was definitely the most exciting part of the ' 13-10 win over the last night.The game was actually entertaining, but the Manning Cast was just better. The first half alone featured Marshawn AND . Also, had to watch a game that featured the only two teams he ever lost to in a , which made things even more interesting. If you haven't watched the Manning Cast yet, I highly recommend you check it out at some point in the near future. If you have no idea what the Manning Cast is, it's an alternate feed of the Monday game that airs on ESPN2 and features Peyton and Eli watching the game together. Since they don't want to talk to each other for three straight hours, they always bring on four guests per week with one coming on each quarter.Anyway, we don't do guests here, but we do cover six topics every day, so let's get to them.As always, here's your weekly reminder to tell all your friends to sign up for the Pick Six newsletter.

Today's show: Recapping the Saints' wild win over the SeahawksCalling this game "wild" might be a slight exaggeration, but it was definitely a riveting game to watch and that's mostly because it went down to the wire. The only thing more riveting than the Saints' 13-10 win was the podcast that Will Brinson, Ryan Wilson and I recorded after the game.Not only did we talk about the game, but we spent some serious time breaking down the Seahawks schedule to try and figure out if they have any shot at the playoffs (Spoiler alert: Probably not).With that in mind, here are three key things from the game that we touched on during the podcast: Saints saved by and their defense.Alvin Kamara is easily the best player on the Saints offense right now, yet somehow, the Seahawks seemed to forget that he existed on Monday. The Saints running back went off against Seattle totaling 179 yards and a touchdown. Kamara's yardage total ended up representing 55% of the Saints total yards in the game. Although the Saints only scored 13 points, that ended up being enough thanks to a masterful performance from a defense that sacked five times while holding Seattle to just 219 total yards. It was the fewest yards the Seahawks have been held to in a home game since 2017. The Saints also got a clutch performance from rookie kicker , who hit the first two field goal attempts of his career in Seattle. Johnson will be the team's kicker going forward after was lost for the .Seahawks offensive game-plan set football back 60 years.After scoring on an 84 Shaquem Griffin Jersey -yard pa s le s than five minutes into the game, it seemed like the Seahawks were going to test the Saints through the air all night, but then they changed their minds. After that TD pa s to from Geno Smith to , the Seahawks decided they were only going to run the ball, which made no sense when you consider that the Saints went into Week 7 with the second-best run defense in the . In news that probably won't surprise you, the plan didn't work. As for Smith, he had more pa sing yards on his TD to Metcalf (84) than he did in the rest of the game combined (83). Seahawks had some special teams trouble.Despite all their troubles, the Seahawks actually could have won this game if kicker didn't have a meltdown. The Seahawks kicker mi sed two field goals in the second half (from 44 and 53) that both ended up being costly. The two mi ses were a huge surprise for a kicker who had a perfect 2020. Last year, Myers went 24-for-24 on the season, making him just the third kicker in NFL history to attempt 20 or more kicks and make all of them. This year, the magic seems to be gone as Myers is now just 6 of 10 on the season.We talked about those three things plus everything else you could po sibly want to know about Monday's game, so be sure to check it out.

Prisco's Power Rankings heading into Week 8If you've looked at the over the past 24 hours, you may have noticed that there are only five teams in the league with one lo s or le s and in something that's not a coincidence, those five teams are all in the top five of Prisco's Power Rankings this week.With that in mind, here's a look at Prisco's top five teams heading into Week 8:I'm not going to spoil the rest of the power rankings here, but I am going to give you a few nuggets. Here's what has changed since last week: Two teams tied for the biggest jump this week as the and both moved up six spots. Apparently, Prisco was super impre sed with the fact that the Patriots put up 54 POINTS on the . Following the win, New England jumped from 24th to 18th. The other big jump went to the Falcons, who moved up from 25th to 19th after beating Chris Carson Jersey the 30-28 with a field goal on the final play. .The biggest tumble in this week's rankings went to the . For the first time in ' career, the Chiefs are NOT ranked in Prisco's top 15. After the Chiefs lost to the 27-3, Prisco dropped Kansas City a total of seven spots, from 10th down to 17th.The weirdest drop of the week went to the Saints, who fell three spots -- from ninth to 12th -- even though they beat the Seahawks. I'm gue sing Prisco doesn't know who won last night because there's a 61% chance that he went to bed before the game was over. We also have some big news at the bottom of the rankings: THE ARE NO LONGER IN LAST. Even though they're the NFL's only winle s team, Prisco has been impre sed enough with them that he moved them out of the cellar. The new team at the bottom of the rankings is the New York Jets and based on how they played on Sunday, I feel like they're going to be there for a while.If you want to know where your favorite team ended up in . If you want to argue with Prisco over his rankings, you . I argue with him all the time about everything. 3. Breech's Week 8 picksIt's Tuesday, and that can only mean one thing: It's time for my weekly picks.Last week, I went 10-3 straight up and 8-5 against the spread, but you guys don't care about last week, you want to know about this week. One twist with this week's games is that most of them will be played on Halloween, which is something that hasn't happened in more than a decade. The last time Halloween fell on Nate Orchard Jersey a Sunday came all the way back in 2010. To mark the occasion, I am making some scary picks this week and by scary, I mean I'm picking both the Lions and to win. With that in mind, here are three of my picks for Week 8: Green Bay at Arizona (-6): The Packers are likely going to be mi sing both and their defensive coordinator for this game due to COVID
