# Greg Auman: Auman predicts when each of the NFL's five remaining undefeated teams will lose its first game, with the Raiders and 49ers falling in Week 4, the Bills in Week 5 at the Rams, the Chiefs in Week 7 at Seattle, and the Vikings lasting longest before losing in Week 8 at Detroit.

10 checkable claims — 10 game outcome picks — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.

It names 7 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

4 of 10 have settled so far, averaging 50 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess at the same calls.

> I think it's the same result this time around. The Bills lose, and the question is whether they get another game on that field ...
