We\u2019re officially into the second month of the 2025 NFL season, and it isn\u2019t looking too good for the Las Vegas Raiders at 1-3. Hopefully, October brings more wins for the Raiders, or this team will be on the path to nowhere fast, and some will argue they already are. Regardless, our Silver and Black Pride Pick\u2019em competition continues, and bye weeks are starting across the league, making each pick more important.<\/p>\n

However, I don\u2019t have confidence in Geno Smith right now, and the Colts have been rolling to begin the campaign. Indianapolis dominated Miami and Tennessee in Weeks 1 and 3, edged out a victory against a talented Broncos team, and just went toe-to-toe with one of the best clubs in the NFC, the Rams. Meanwhile, Las Vegas has fallen short three times in a row and lost its best offensive lineman, Kolton Miller<\/a>, earlier this week.<\/p>\n Pick\u2019em Competition<\/p>\n Moving on to S&BP\u2019s Pick\u2019em competition, below is a look at how our writers finished in Week 4<\/a>.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Bill Williamson 46-17-1 (73%)<\/p>\n Matt Holder 44-19-1 (70%)<\/p>\n Ray Aspuria 41-22-1 (65%)<\/p>\n Bill and Ray tied at 10-5-1 last week, and it wasn\u2019t the best showing by me with just nine winners. So, I dropped a game to Bill while Ray remained stagnant and still has some ground to make up. The Ravens really let me down by getting run out of town by the Chiefs, as those other two picked Kansas City (traitors!). Still, there\u2019s plenty of time to make up the two games.<\/p>\n Community Standings<\/p>\n 1. Tennesse Raider Fan<\/a> 48-15<\/p>\n t-2. JeepRaider<\/a> 47-16<\/p>\n t-2.
