Welcome to the Monday edition of the Pick Six newsletter!
If you haven’t checked your calendar lately, I have some big news: It’s Thanksgiving week, which means we’ll be spending 63% of the newsletter talking about food instead of football over the next four days.
One thing we won’t be covering here is the World Cup, but if you want to follow all of our coverage here at CBSSports.com, then make sure to sign up for our soccer newsletter (Golazo), which you can do by clicking here.
OK, let’s forget about the World Cup for a second though and get back to talking about normal things like the Jets losing. The Jets’ wild loss to the Patriots dropped them out of the top-seven in the AFC playoff picture, which I’m only bringing up because we’ll be taking an in-depth look at the playoff race today. We’ll also be handing out grades and making picks for tonight’s 49ers-Cardinals game in Mexico City.
As always, here’s your weekly reminder to tell all your friends to sign up for the Pick Six newsletter. To get your friends to sign up, all you have to do is click here and then share this link with them. Alright, let’s get to the rundown.

One thing we do every week is hand out our weekly winners and losers from Sunday’s action. Here’s a look at who made our list.
Ryan Wilson
- Winner: Brett Maher (and every other Cowboys player). The Cowboys embarrassed the Vikings 40-3 in a game that was easily Dallas’ best of the season. One of the most impressive performances for the Cowboys came from Maher, who hit four field goals, including a 60-yarder! The field goal from 60 yards was the fourth of Maher’s career from 60 or beyond, which is an NFL record.
- Loser: Kenny Pickett. Ryan Wilson is the resident Steelers fan on the podcast and if the the Steelers have lost him, it might be time to bench Pickett and put Mitchell Trusbisky back in.
Will Brinson
- Winner: Dan Campbell. It appears that everyone in Detroit might actually be buying into Dan Campbell’s…
