YourDozen.com is in its third week of a simplified picks format -- it's just NFL for now, but against the spread.

But that change and uptick in competitors the last few weeks still has not resulted to a single perfect score -- something that has not happened in all year in our free picks-with-a-click challenge.

This week's prize? A 2019 Panini Prizm NFL hobby box -- so there are more than a few reasons to get those picks in.

What sophomore slump?

Reigning NFL MVP Patrick Mahomes II might have started a little slow Sunday against the Raiders but the final stats for the Kansas City Chiefs QB are the best in the league this week -- by far -- showing us that there might still be some extra potential in his already pricey cardboard to come this season. His second game of his second season as starter included a 30-for-44 day passing which was good for 443 yards and four touchdowns in a 28-10 win. The next-closest QB for yardage? No. 1 pick Kyler Murray at 349 -- and he didn't even have a touchdown. No other QBs had four TDs, while a few had three -- and you may just see some of them here.

Mahomes' Rookie Cards and first autos are a key inclusion in 2017 NFL boxes. You could easily have Chiefs WR Demarcus Robinson on this list as well -- he had six catches for 172 yards and two TDs -- but we'll limit this one to one player per team and remind you that Robinson's RCs are in 2016 boxes.

Buzz buys and busts a lot of boxes right here for Buzz Breaks, but one of my goals just might be to rip fewer blasters this year and talk more about cardboard that I -- and you -- might like. One way to do that? Simple show and tell -- present a few pick-ups and say why they captured my attention. Would they capture yours? I'd be interested to know -- sometimes they might, sometimes they won't and that's fine. It's a buyer's market out there with plenty of options and bargains as well as high-end gems to chase.

So, with all that said, here are a few Buzz Buys ... and this time around there's a little bit of everything.

A BEGINNER BEAR ... 
The Slab: Paul "Bear" Bryant -- nickname autograph cut (BAS-certified)
The Price: $90
Why it’s Buzz-worthy: I'll be the first to say that this is perhaps not my ideal autograph situation, but when it comes to Alabama football, Bryant is about as big as it gets -- still above Nick Saban for now -- and landing an authenticated signed photo or slabbed cut of the legend known as "Bear" will typically cost at least $275 and often more. Bryant was one of the autographs that had been on my want list for years but because of the price I'd never really considered it because the quality of autos that can be iffy even for $275. So, when this one presented itself earlier in the year, I opted for a beginner 'graph -- something in a slab and enough to say I have one. I grabbed it and held onto it for here until football season arrived so here we are. Bryant won six national championships in his legendary career and when Saban wins another that will set a new NCAA record. Even then, Saban will still be coaching in Bryant-Denny Stadium on Paul W. Bryant Drive down the road from the Paul W. Bryant Museum -- all named after the coach who died in 1983 less than a month after he notched his record 323rd career win. Bryant's autographs aren't super-tough finds -- they're just pricey. He's had a handful of cut autographs in football releases in recent years but I've never gotten in on the chase there -- also pricey.
