Week 7 Preview and Picks

Our model says losing Revis will cost the Jets a little over a game this year

[10/19 update, 9:30 a.m.: A brief word on last night's game, which was played following the original publishing of this post.  As we tweeted and put on Facebook last night, we took the Niners to cover the 7.5 point spread.  You know what happened.  We'd just like to go on record as saying that we agree with Harbaugh's decision.  Declining the penalty leads to a single kneel-down to end the game. Accepting it -- and taking the safety -- leaves the possibility, however remote, that Seattle could go onside kick --> score --> onside kick --> score.  The chances are low with 45 seconds and no timeouts, and yes, something crazy could happen on the snap for the kneel-down, but if the BackupQB were coaching the Niners, he'd have done the same thing.
