I guess I'm hosting this again. Koala won last year. Can he defend his crown? Probably not!

A few ground rules:
-If I have you blocked you aren't allowed to participate (Note: I don't have anyone blocked)
-Please say which level you are on when you post your pick. In most cases it will be obvious, but this makes it easier for me to record the picks.
-The deadline to make a pick is before the official kick-off time of the game in question. You cannot pick a game that has already started. Some levels may have different deadlines, so read carefully.
-The deadline to answer the bonus question is at the start of games on Sunday (1 PM ET).
-Please don't edit your picks. If you'd like to change, please do so in a clearly labeled new post.
-I get my spreads from an online site providing lines from several sources, both in Vegas and out. Although these sources may continue to change their lines throughout the week, the ones I post in the topic are frozen and final for our purposes.
-You may use bonus points to skip any level after it is guaranteed you cannot pass it (at the end of the week's games, typically). You may only skip the level before I have posted the next week's topic. The price for skipping is in proportion to the level you are skipping. Skipping level 1 would take 1 bonus point, level 2 will take 2, level 5 will take 5. So on and so forth.

Explanation of Levels:

Level 1: Pick a winner. Simply pick one team to win their game. If they win, you go on to level 2.

Schedule:

Thursday, September 7th
Detroit Lions @ Kansas City Chiefs

Sunday, September 10th
1 PM ET
Carolina Panthers @ Atlanta Falcons
Cincinnati Bengals @ Cleveland Browns
Jacksonville Jaguars @ Indianapolis Colts
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Minnesota Vikings

4 PM ET

Las Vegas Raiders @ Denver Broncos
Philadelphia Eagles @ New England Patriots
Miami Dolphins @ Los Angeles Chargers
Los Angeles Rams @ Seattle Seahawks

8 PM ET

Bonus: Will any games go to overtime this week?

Level 1: Ravens
Bonus: Yes

A few tempting picks here but also some I'm more wary of just because Week 1 (like Belichick with prep time) but Ravens should be solid I think.
