Hello football friends, and welcome to the Monday edition of the Pick Six newsletter! If you know a Ravens fan, please give them a hug today, because they probably need it. The coach they fired in January (John Harbaugh) has the Giants in first place.
The offensive coordinator who left in January (Todd Monken) has the Browns in first place. And then there's the Ravens themselves. They somehow managed to lose by 22 points on Sunday in a game they led 13-0 at halftime.
It had been 75 years since an NFL team lost by at least 20 points in a game in which they led by 13 or more at the half. Unfortunately for Ravens fans, we'll be reliving that game in today's newsletter, plus, we'll be handing out some grades and making some picks for tonight's NFC East showdown in Philadelphia. As always, here's your daily reminder to tell all your friends to .

That's the only French I know. Anyway, let's get to the grades, starting with Pittsburgh's win in Paris. As for the other grades that we've handed out so far in Week 7, you can check those out here.
You can't have a week of NFL action without having winners and losers, so here are some winners and losers. I always get sad when there's a kicker on the loser's list, and yup, you guessed it, there's a kicker on the loser's list this week. Carter Bahns came up with this week's list of winners and losers, and we're going to check out his losers below.
