With Halloween right around the corner, this week seems like a good time to take a look at the most frightening things in the NFL this year. I'm thinking we should start with the perpetual nightmare that is the ' quarterback situation.The situation is so confusing right now that Browns fans don't even know who the starting quarterback is, and neither does their coach.  The real question is who is the starting quarterback for the browns now?  Deven Jacobs (@deven_jacobs18)  In Week 6, became the team's 28th starting quarterback since 1999. He didn't even last a week after was given the job back in Week 7. He didn't even make it until the second half of Week 7 because Cody Ke sler came in during the third quarter Sunday. If that sounds confusing, I think it's because that's what the Browns want. You can't be mad if you're confused. It's a solid strategy and I'm pretty sure it also works in relationships. The saddest part of the Browns' story is that none of this had to happen if Cleveland would've just drafted in 2016 or this year. However, the Browns decided to pa s on both players and trade those picks away to the and .    When you're the Browns and you've pa sed on Carson Wentz & Deshaun Watson in consecutive drafts:  The Ten-Yard Line (@TheTenYardLine)  The only thing more baffling than the Browns'  Rasmus Andersson Men Jersey draft strategy is that someone in Hollywood decided Michael Bay would be the right person to produce a "Dora the Explorer" movie.  Dora the Explorer live-action movie in the works, with Michael Bay producing  Entertainment Weekly (@EW)  I've watched enough Dora with my niece to know this isn't going to be a good combination. That's basically like  Flames Blank Jersey letting Stephen King write the script for the "My Little Pony" movie. It makes no sense.You know what else doesn't make sense? The clip below. I've spent the past 48 hours trying to figure out what exactly is happening here and I've come up empty.    Yo what is happening here  MadeByTim (@MadeByTim)  I gue s that's what happens when your team has a winning record this late in the season for the first time in 10 years. The only thing more confusing than that clip are these polar bears who have taken a Ru sian village hostage.  Do not negotiate or give in to their demands. Itll only encourage copycats. via  Mike Saunders (@MGSaunders1961)  It's probably in all of our best interests to get behind our new polar bear overlords as soon as po sible because I'm gue sing they're probably eventually going to come for all of us.Anyway, let's get to the Week 8 picks.Actually, before we get to the picks this week, I implore you to . The reason you should click over and check out the other experts this week is because Ryan Wilson had the most improbable week in the history of NFL picks.  Wilson destroyed everyone in America with his picks in Week 7, and then destroyed himself. The CBSSports.com NFL writer went an amazing 13-2 with his picks straight up, but then fell flat on his face and went 0-13-2 against the spread. I didn't believe these numbers myself until I saw them. Wilson was pretty much the best picker in the country straight up (according to ) and the absolute worst against  Jakob Pelletier Jersey the spread. The real-life equivalent of this would be getting 11 phone numbers at a bar ... but then they all turn out to be fake. I think that actually happened to me once.If you want to use Wilson's picks this week or just send him a giant LOL for his picks against the spread from last week, I suggest . If you don't want to use his picks, I suggest following him anyway because he . I mi s kindergarten.Alright, let's get to the picks.NFL Week 8 Picks8:25 p.m. ET (CBS/NFL Network/Amazon)The offense has been so bad this season that watching an actual dolphin try to play football would've probably been more entertaining than watching this team over the past six weeks.  The Dolphins have been the most inexplicable team in the NFL. Despite the fact that their offense is ranked dead last in total yards, they've somehow managed to come back from double-digit second-half deficits in their past two games. The Dolphins are so bad they're good, which I think Brett Kulak Men Jersey  makes them the Jean-Claude Van Damme of NFL teams because that basically describes every movie he made from 1989 to 1995. I don't even really like the movie "Sudden Death" but I watch it every time it's on TV because I can't bring myself to look away. I'm thinking Dolphins fans feel the same way about their offense.The crazy thing about the Dolphins is that their starting quarterback just got hurt and that might end up WORKING OUT IN THEIR FAVOR. When most NFL teams lose their starting quarterback, the fan base just a sumes the season is over. With the Dolphins, their fans are thinking, "Well, we had the worst offense in the NFL with , so theoretically, things can't po sibly get worse with " and it makes sense.I have no idea if Moore is actually better than Cutler, but that shouldn't matter Thursday because all Moore really needs to be able to do against the is hand the ball off. Baltimore is giving up 145.3 yards per game on the ground, which ranks last in the NFL. If you spent the first pick in your fantasy draft on this year, that pick might finally pay off this week.  The pick: Dolphins 19-16 over Ravens 1 p.m. ET (Fox)I'm not sure if Kyle Shanahan left a copy of his playbook lying around when he left Atlanta to take the head coaching job in San Francisco, but if he did, the might want to start using that, because whatever Steve Sarkisian is doing isn't working.Actually, I'm not going to completely blame Sarkisian for the Falcons' failure because it's starting to look like maybe the Falcons just forgot to tell him that he would have to play against AFC teams this season. Sarkisian's offense has done just fine against NFC teams this season, but it seems to suffer a total meltdown whenever it faces an AFC team.  Falcons vs. AFC East in 2017: 0-3, scoring 13.7 ppgFalcons vs. NFC in 2017: 3-0, 29.0 ppgProbs should just forfeit next week  John Breech (@johnbreech)  Normally, i'm not a big fan of picking a team quarterbacked by to win a game, but McCown has better stats this season than , which is borderline crazy when you consider that Ryan was the NFL MVP last season. Through seven Michael Ferland Kids Jersey  weeks, McCown has more touchdown pa ses, a higher completion percentage and a better QB rating. Matt Ryan is turning into a poor man's Josh McCown, which is something I never thought I would write about the reigning NFL MVP.   The pick: Jets 20-17 over Falcons4:05 p.m. ET (CBS)"Houston, we have a problem."I didn't want to start with that line, but I had to because the Texans actually do have a problem: They have to play against a quarterback who has never lost at home to an AFC team. Although that sounds almost unbelievable, it's true. Since being drafted in 2012, is
