Peyton Manning and Tom Brady rank their top five quarterbacks, plus preseason Week 2 winners and losers

Welcome to the Tuesday edition of the Pick Six newsletter! 

We are officially just one week away from the most depressing day on the NFL calendar: cut day. 

Next Tuesday, the NFL will be holding its one and only cut day of the year, which is when teams have to trim their active rosters from 90 players down to 53 players. The good news is that there will be no cuts today. Instead, we’ll be doing some exciting things in today’s newsletter.

As always, here’s your daily reminder to tell all your friends and neighbors to sign up for the newsletter. To get them signed up, all you have to do is click here.
