Heres my Week 4 Picks....
Jets (-3.5) over BILLS-Not a pretty game people, between two defenseless rush less, qb less teams, might end up being just a field goal fest which the Jets can take advantage of due to a better special teams which can help win better field position
Raiders (+4) over Dolphins- Once again a potential JaMarcus Rusell vs Brady Quinn matchup that we do not get to see. Instead Daunte Culpepper gets a chance to get revenge on the team that ruined any sort of credibility he still had at QB. I like the Raiders defense coming up big in this one and after Trent Green gets sacked a couple times the Dolphins will realize that it wasnt Daunte's fault its the horrible O-line
BROWNS (+4.5) Ravens-Once again, the Ravens were who I THOUGHT they was. They proved me wrong last week but that was by a last minute field goal after being smacked for 17 pts by....Kurt Warner??? The seat warmer for Marc Bulger, Eli Manning and Matt Leinart?? Come on Browns expose these birds.
Texans (-2.5) over FALCONS-Without Andre Johnson, Matt Schaub still managed to give Peyton and the Colts a run for their money last week, even though Joey Harrington is coming off an impressive game every TD Schaub scores the more fans will hate Harrington, come on Petrino even Grossman got benched
LIONS (+3) over Bears- The Bears are without Grossman but still without hope, the QB change spares them 2 turnovers but doesnt necessarily means more points on the board and they really oughta check out free agency because Brian Griese is an upgrade from Bad Rex but cant hold a candle to Good Rex
Packers (-2) over VIKINGS- Even the 2006 Brett Favre can take care of business against this Vikings squad. Adrian Peterson hasnt yet had his breakout game and I think this might be it unfortunately it wont get him a W but will help kick off his Rookie of the Year campaign.
COWBOYS (-13) over Rams- Someone please tell me who is a defensive back on the Rams. Anyone? The Tony Romo show continues with another great offensive game. Anyone else think T.O. is being on his best behavior to keep attention off Randy Moss
Bucs(+3) over PANTHERS- Unfortunately Jeff Garcia is starting my fantasy team this week so though the Panthers probably win this one I'm really pulling for Garcia to have a good game even though its clear they cant win unless Cadillac Williams has the big game.
NINERS (+2) over Seahawks- Okay Okay I admit....I dont like the Seahawks, I find them boring and fundamental, I hate Deion Branch for leaving, I think there very overrated, Hasselbecks okay but other than that I can do without the Seahawks, au contraire I love the 49ers defense in this one
Steelers (-6) over CARDINALS- Like last week, the Steelers are rolling and the Cardinals are in the way and Cards fans dont get too attached to Warner he had ONE good game he is still an average QB getting older by the quarter.
CHARGERS (-12) over Chiefs- The Chargers need this win, lemme repeat the Chargers NEED this win over the lowly Chiefs. This game was supposed to be a clash of two of the games most elites RBs but its really two former playoff teams thats slowly watching their chance go down the drain. Anyone has an update on that Priest Holmes comeback?
Broncos (+9.5) over COLTS- My biggest upset this week....why??? Because the Colts arent taking care of business, the Pats, Steelers and Cowboys are blowing by the competition and the Colts barely beating the Titans and Texans. Also, the Denver secondary is just about as impressive as the Colts recieving corp and Denver is upset coming off the HUGE loss to the Jaguars.
Eagles (-3) over GIANTS- The Giants defense showed up in the second half versus Washington but Jason Campbell is no Donovan McNabb. McNabb probably wont have the game he had last week but he should squeeze out a win here. On another note am I the only one who thinks NBC airs Giants games just so Tiki Barber can talk about them
Patriots (-7.5) over BENGALS- Tom Brady versus the Bengals Defense....hmmm...but on another note like I said in my previous article "Trading Spouses: Meet Your New Offense" I think Brady is trying to punch his ticket into Canton. He's throwing TD passes when the game is already won he rather throw the 1 yd TD pass than ram it in. Its all fine and dandy for now but we saw the results when Peyton had his incredible seasons...
Browns,27 Ravens,13 W(upset) Falcons,26 Texans,16 L Packers,23 Vikings,16 W Cowboys,35 Rams,7 W Raiders,35 Dolphins,17 W Lions,37 Bears,27 W
5-2 thru first 7 games....
