It took three weeks and more than 100 entries, but we finally found a winner in the Beat The Blogger NFL pick'em contest. After picking 10 of 14 games correctly, Mark McDowell rolled to an easy win with the Blogger managing just seven correct picks.

For his efforts, McDowell will be receiving authentic signed 8-by-10 photos of LaDainian Tomlinson, Drew Brees and Marshall Faulk.

The prize for anybody who can Beat The Blogger this week will be one signed 8-by-10 photo to the person who can pick the most NFL games (with posted point spreads) correctly and of course, Beat The Blogger in the process.
This week's point spreads will be posted here on Wednesday and the Blogger's picks will be posted on Friday. You can post your picks any time after this week's schedule is up and can get your picks in right up until a 1/2-hour before the start of the first game of the week.

Spread the word and good luck.
