Had another good week last week. 12-4 again, except I forgot to put my picks in to my pick'em league. Silly me. Went from 1st to 4th. Here's hoping I make a bit more ground this week. 120-72 now. Moved up to 62.5% correct!
Picked the Colts this Thursday and was right on that one. So another good start to the weekend. Already 1-0, let's see if I can't get 15 more! :-)
Cleveland @ Buffalo: Cleveland has actually shown that they can beat tough teams this year, Buffalo has shown that they can get close to tough teams, but then let it get away at the end. Bills move closer to the #1 pick after they lose to Cleveland.
Green Bay @ Detroit: Green Bay, easy.
NY Giants @ Minnesota: G-men, whether or not Favre starts. The game will be closer if Favre is NOT playing. Giants are the team to beat in the NFC east right now.
Cincinnati @ Pittsburgh: Pittsburgh will be tested in this game, Bengals always play them well, but the Steelers take this one and move closer to another division title.
Tampa Bay @ Washington: Tampa is for real, and has a really competitive team. The Skins, on the other hand, are really struggling. They may keep it close, but the Bucs prevail.
Atlanta @ Carolina: Carolina stinks, Falcons move closer to their division crown with this one.
Oakland @ Jacksonville: Should be a good game here, but I think Jacksonville eeks this one out in what will be a closer game than the 10 point victory suggests.
St. Louis @ New Orleans: St. Louis is playing well, is doing well, has exceeded everybody's expectations. But no way they beat the Who Dats in their house. Give me the Saints.
Seattle @ San Francisco: Seahawks have fallen off their impressive start, but since both these teams play in the worst division in football, nobody is really out of it. I'll take the Niners in this one.
New England @ Chicago: Bears get a real test here, and will FAIL, miserably. I definitely hate the Pats, we all know this, but they'll be the Bears. Look for Cutler to spike in picks in this game. Take away his running game, and he'll throw 3-4 INTs a game.
Miami @ NY Jets: Jets need to win this one, and I think they will. They now have to count on the wild card after being embarrassed by the Pats.
Denver @ Arizona: Broncos did the first smart thing that they have done since hiring McD, and got rid of him. Now their former RBs coach is the head coach. This will probably be an ugly, UGLY game, but it's weird how the players will execute so much better after the head coach gets canned. Broncos win their 4th, and possibly last, of the year.
Kansas City @ San Diego: A good game here. KC holds their playoff destiny in their own hands. Win, and they pretty much clinch the AFC west, lose, and they still are the favorites to win the AFC West. What a job Todd Haley, Charlie Weiss, and Romeo Crenell have done with this team. They are creating a culture of winning in a team that has come close in the past, but never gotten over the hump. I like the Chiefs, but think that the Chargers will take this one since they are at home.
Philadelphia @ Dallas: Philly will embarrass Dallas in this one. I look for this one to get out of control in about the 3rd quarter.
Baltimore @ Houston: Absolute must win for Houston if they want to have any chance of getting to the playoffs. They'll put up some points against an older Ravens team that has its good weeks and its off weeks. In the end, Ravens take this one, and possibly move Gary Kubiak one step closer to taking over the Broncos job.
Hoping for 15 more correct guesses this week! Enjoy football this weekend! I will! Look out for my College Bowl picks VERY soon.
