Straight Cash Homey- Aly's Week 5 Picks!

With the Return of the Randy Ratio to Minnesota, this week's Monday Night Game got juicy!!!
Our lowly blog was featured in a link on 11 points as I was a guest picker for the Carolina-Chicago game.

Jags@Bills- Wow. This game depresses me on the lowliest level. I think Jags win. But who cares? Poor Buffalo.

Bucs@Bengals- Bucs are a scrappy team and Carson Palmer isn't being himself. I think the Bucs win in a close game. Is this the week Ocho and Owens get into it? Probably!

Falcons@Browns- Well the Falcons are continuing to impress but they did have a gimme win over the 49ers. This should be another gimme win. All of Cleveland will now commit ritual suicide.

Rams@Lions- A better game than most would think. Lions are scrappy and the Rams are continuing to prove me wrong. Still, I am taking the Lions in this game.

Chiefs@Colts- Wow who would have thought KC would be the last remaining unbeaten team. It helps that the AFC East, North, and South have cannabalized each other already. KC will go down and this year will not see a long run undefeated team. Manning will trash the KC defense aka NE Light in Indy.

Packers@Redskins- Rodgers=MVP, Shanahan is losing his team. I think the Packers defense will harass McNabb and Rodgers will light up the Skins D.

Bears@Panthers- Captain Pampers is out. Panthers are a mess but guess what. I am doing it anyway, taking the Panthers. Williams, Smith, and Stewart will have good games.

Broncos@Ravens- Somehow the Broncos are still in it, but this week they play the Ravens in Baltimore. I want to take the Broncos but am going with the Ravens.

Giants@Texans- Arian Foster and CO. will have the pleasure of defeating both Mannings this year as the Giants mess cannot stand up to the united Texans offense. Matt Schaub is looking great and the Texans have found they can use anyone in their back field.

Saints@Cardinals- The Saints are looking pretty darn well, the Cardinals aren't. Derek Anderson has been serviceable but they are missing Dancing Kurt Warner. Saints take it to the hole and win.

Chargers@Raiders- Wow Raiders still suck and the Chargers are worse than I thought. Philip Rivers though should help them defeat the evil Robot's team.

Titans@Cowboys- Both teams are still looking for an identity and both coaches potentially could be on their last legs. Romo needs to prove he can be an elite QB. Roy Williams emerged from Cryo freeze last week to kick some ass. I think the Titans still win it though.

Iggles@Niners- Eagles win even with the crazy QB situation there. The Niners have disappointed me this year. I thought Singletary was a good motivator but instead it looks like he motivated too much. Loosen the reigns a bit, Mike and let them fly!!

Onto the Monday Night Game,
Oh wow the Return of Randy Moss to Purple and Gold. The return of Brett Favre to his middle home. Revis Island is back. Revis Vs Moss, Favre Vs His Sexual harassment allegations, Ryan vs Childress Its Monday Night! I think the Jets win though with Randy not being quite integrated back into the Vikings office.

Ah what a wonderful Sunday!

Amazing first round of the playoffs that we had in the NFL. Arizona and Green Bay just scored again, by the way. What an amazing game that was! But the greatest thing, for me anyways, was the absolute beat down that the New England Patriots got today.

I think that the best part about all of this is that people will finally see the Patriots for what they actually are. Old, and mediocre. Is Brady still a good Quarterback? Sure, but he is far from the God-like player that they make him out to be. He was weak in pressure situations this year, and made a decent amount of bad decisions and bad throws. You saw some of the bad throws today, like his first interception where he under threw his receiver by, oh I dunno, 10 yards! The defense is slow and was completely dominated today. They are just plain old!

My favorite thing, of course, comes at the end of the game. After they have had their rear ends handed to them, what is the picture we see? Bellichick making the barely contacting handshake before sulking off the field. Randy Moss and Tom Brady tucking their tails between their legs and not acknowledging anybody from the other team as the go to cry in their lockers. A team's true colors are always shown in the most agonizing moments because it is easy to be classy and say the right things when you win (not that Randy Moss has ever been a classy guy). But it is hard to go across the field to the guy who just kicked you in the teeth and told you to like it and congratulate them on a job well done. Yet, almost every single other player and staff in the league manages to do it because, as we all know, every game must have a loser. So when you don't, and you make such an obvious point about not doing it every single time, it really reflects poorly on you. It's something that I've been saying about the Patriots for a long time. They have no class. Brady, Bellichick, the 2 so-called faces of the NFL are among the sorest of losers that I have ever seen.

The other benefit that I can hopefully see from all of this is a recognition by the world of the "experts" that the Patriots are not superhuman. They do not walk on water. In fact, they are actually quite human, and they have shown that a lot this year. I hope that the ESPN and NFL commentators everywhere realize that deifying a team is ridiculous, and that all of this absurd and sickening Patriot worship will finally stop. This is definitely a high hope, I realize, but a guy can dream, right? At any rate, now we get to see another round of awesome playoff football!
