Week 3 NFL Picks

I haven't done so well in the last few weeks on picks. I am thinking a trained monkey could do better but here they are.

49ers@Chiefs- This is the make it or break it week for the 49ers and this is the week the Chiefs can prove they can hang in the AFC West. I think the Chiefs are for real and the 49ers suck unless they get a real QB. I hear Jeff Garcia is floating around in the UFL.

Browns@Ravens- Bring your bags, Cleveland fans. Ravens win this one with Flacco throwing 2 TDs. On an interesting note, Cleveland fans have donated a bunch of Lebron jerseys to homeless shelters in Miami.

Cowboys@Texans- See ya Wade Phillips, don't let the door hit you on the way out. Jerry Jones gave poor Wade the dreaded vote of confidence this week. Texans win this one by at least 2 TDs. Dallas is just falling apart worse than Michael Jackson's last nose.

Lions@Vikings- Holy Relevance, Batman! The Lions could put a nail in Brett Favre's retirement party. Lions will win this game in a close squeaker. Watch All Pro Rookie Suh squish Brett twice.

Bills@Pats- Don't bet against Bill Bellichek and Tom Brady at home. Does it even matter? Bills fans might be more depressed than Browns fans right now.

Falcons@Saints- Close game but i think the Super Bowl Champions win this one on grit and a few Matt Ryan turnovers.

Titans@Giants- Two teams who want to be playoff contenders but are more pretenders. Vince Young was benched again last week and the Giants have had player vs coach issues again. I still think Eli wins this one in a close game, 24-21.

Steelers@Bucs- Another surprise game here. Both teams are 2-0 and the Steel Curtain 2.0 has not needed She Said No. Charlie Batch starts this game for the Steelers and Josh Freeman looks like a decent Qb for the Bucs. Expect this game to be a grinding, defensive game if the Steelers can control the pace. Steelers head home with a 3-0 record and a good chance of playoff hope with the return of She Said No in two weeks.

Bengals@Panthers- The Cats face off here. The Panthers should be better then they are but they need to settle the QB position. Lets hope former Irish QB Claussen is the answer. I think the Bengals win after both heads of the T Ochocinco monster score touchdowns. Look for a good matchup though between TE Jermaine Gresham and the Panthers LB core.

Eagles@Jags- Mike Vick runs over the Jags in this game and Andy Reid helps the Mike Vick redemption train along. Yes he is a former felon, but he has been nothing but humble and grateful this time around. Look I will jump on him if he steps out of line, but why ruin a good story now. Vick or Welker could be the comeback players of the year, but its only Week 3.

Redskins@Rams- Maybe Shanahan finally gets control of his team here and wins another game. Its a pretty easy gimme game what with Bradford still being a rookie and all.

Colts@Broncos- Kevin, I have your bag ready for you. Peyton continues on his quest to prove the Texans game was a fluke. Colts win in a no contest. Poor Broncos fans. Great post by Woody Paige about depression and suicide the other day though. Pretty moving.

Raiders@Cardinals- Wow both teams made it to the Superbowl in the last decade and both teams are pretty crappy right now. Raiders benched their supposed answer at Qb last week and will start Bruce Gradkowski again. Cardinals win but barely.

Chargers@Seahawks- Chargers will win this game on the back of Phillip Cry Baby Rivers.

Jets@Dolphins- Fins win as the Jets are still on a hangover from the Sex Scandal, the Braylon Edwards DUI and their victory over the Pats last week. The AFC East is a 3 team race all season long.

Packers@Bears- Not even close. Rodgers continues his push to MVP and the erasing of Brett Favre from the collective Wisconsin memory. Jay Cutler gets sacked at least 3 times this week and throws one INT.
