Yeah, really on top of sports this week aren’t I? To be fair, I have been writing, just not about sports. Sorry bout that, I won’t be such a slacker next week. I thought about doing this Friday and didn’t, Sat and didn’t and here I am now. I’d name a Douchetard but I don’t really remember what happened last weekend other than my Bucs losing again and some huge days put up by the big QB’s. I guess I’ll name the Titans Douchetards for putting up a zero against the Pats. There, DT done. On with the picks!
Houston over SF- Both of these teams screwed me last week, so I’m back to picking Houston and dicking them over as they dick me over. Hate. Love Andre Johnson though.
Green Bay over Cleveland- Cleveland got their gift win, they’re done.
San Diego over KC- SD dicked me over too, last time I call them soft and then pick them anyway against a good team. Lesson learned. They aren’t playing a good team today though.
Indy over St. Louis- Awesome, Peyton can take a half day today, this game will be over by the end of the first quarter.
Minnesota over Pittsburgh- Great game and I actually get it, though same time as both my teams battle in London so we’ll see how much I get to see. I’m going with Minny’s offense because I like them better than Pitt’s and something is just missing with the champs this year. They’re not kicking ass like they should be.
New England over Tampa- Lock of the week. Only question is how badly will the Bucs lose? 40? 50? Moss should have a huge day against the shitty Tampa secondary. It depresses me to write that. I miss my defense. Thank god I love the Pats too, it’ll be interesting to watch my good team vs. my crappy team and see how I handle it. Psychological football study.
Jets over Oakland- I don’t know what Oakland was thinking, winning against the Eagles last week and ruining one of my locks of the week. They must have drugged the Iggles or something, only explanation I have. Sanchez is looking more like a rookie these days, isn’t he?
Carolina over Buffalo- Putrid game. Carolina is on a mini run due to playing crap teams 3 weeks in a row. Good for them I guess. Steve Smith vs. TO for biggest sideline bitcher this week.
Chicago over Cincy- Give Cincy the benefit of the doubt and they lose. Thanks Bengals. Back to not being on the bandwagon. Man my picks sucked last week.
Atlanta over Dallas- Dallas hasn’t impressed me all year. Atl is decent but not surprising anybody. I’m going with the Falcons because of Romo.
New Orleans over Miami- The Saints ae clearly emulating the 2007 Pats. I can’t root for them to go undefeated though, I just can’t.
NY Giants over Arizona- I look for the Giants to bounce back after last week’s debacle vs. NO. Another great pick I made. Lovely.
Philly over Washington- Still on Jim Zorn watch, still don’t believe he’ll last year the no matter what the GM says. Wash is putrid. Philly has to make a statement after crapping the bed vs. Oakland.
So there you have it, sorry I was rushed but you know, that’s what happens when you don’t write til 2 and a half hours before gametime. Next week, I swear. I’ll even do a commentary today or tomorrow. Count on it!
Last Week: 8-6
Season Total: 61-29
Poor Tampa!
Hee…I know. Thought they just might pull it out last week. I have no idea when/if they’ll win. Sigh.
I love Dallas but I have to admit that most of the time they are just a good team not a great one. I too that they would lose. Why can’t they play like that all the time.
What irritated me was the giants vs cardinals. The broadcasters before the game were asking themselves by how much the giants would win by, saying about how Arizona was ranked last in rushing. Thankfully NY lost and Arizona won:)
Yeah Dallas is hard to predict. I guess I’ll pick against them unless they’re playing an elite team, from now on. hehe Although they nearly lost to KC so who knows?
Zona got a big win and I’m glad for them. I thought about picking them but didn’t because the Giants were coming off that bad loss to the Saints and I thought they were better than that. Guess not!
