I have good news: I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance by switching to Geico...okay I got better news I have surpassed 100 correct picks this season and its only week 10!!! This week I'm taking more of a risk and going for a bunch of HUGE upsets, stir things up.
Last Week 11-3
Season 104-26-1
Falcons @ Panthers(-4)- The Falcons proved me wrong last week and I'll go crazy if they do it twice in a row. The Panthers are starting Vinny and you gotta root for the old guy. The Panthers are not the 49ers and even if Atlanta pays its best I dont see them winning.
Vikings @ Packers(-6)- Granted AP is a force to be reckoned with but he is not having an encore especially at Lambeau. The Packers have got two deep threat recievers in Koren Robinson and Greg Jennings, finally a rush attack in Ryan Grant and the fiercest defense in the NFC, the Pack is back! I never thought I say those words.
Broncos @ Chiefs(-3)- Personally I wouldnt be surprised if Denver pulled away with this one but its hard to go against the Chiefs back to back at Arrowhead. Maybe when Huard stinks up the joint we may see Brodie Croyle. Then again its Herm Edwards
Bills (-2.5) @ Dolphins- Now do you believe me, I been saying for weeks that the Bills are a lot better than what the standings say. This is a gimme game setting up a beatdown from the Pats next week. J.P. Losman is my interim fantasy starter so hopefully he can bomb a couple to Lee Evans. After all the Bills dont want to become "that team" (see Rams @ Saints)
Rams @ Saints (-11.5)- Coming into week 10 facing a winless team, do you really want to become that team that they beat, if the Rams went 1-15 you would forever be mocked as that one team that blew it. I actually think they are going to win a game but they caught the Saints at the wrong. Drew Brees is back and so are the Saints the point spread is a little exaggerated though, maybe bettors miss the Pats.
Browns (+9.5) @ Steelers - First HUGE upset. The Steelers are coming off a huge win against Baltimore but little do they know the Ravens arent the true competition in the AFC North, it is the Cleveland Browns. The Browns are clicking on all cylinders and they want this game more than the Steelers. I'm thinking OT victory for the Dawg Pound.
Jaguars @ Titans (-4)- The Titans are playing like a .500 team yet they are 6-2 and only lost by a combined margin of 5 points. Why because the Titans are more than Vince Young believe it or not. Like the Falcons were in 2004, VY fills the seats and the team does the rest. The Jags were rolling until someone rolled over David Garrard's ankle and Gray is playing like he's trying to win the starting spot(how cute) Gray blows it and the Titans D wins it for them to share the first place lead ((SPOILER ALERT))
Eagirls @ Redskins (-2.5) - Remember when McNabb said all those things about black QBs, got criticized and then put up 56 points against the Lions and everyone thought the Eagles were for real, oh those were the days. That's all the Eagles can look back at and be happy as they get ran over in Landover
Bengals (+4) @ Ravens - The Ravens are who I THOUGHT they were (DG Ref #29). The Bengals are playing with a heavy heart for Ocho Cinco and are playing a "Seinfeld" season now, they're playing for nothing all the other teams are playing for something they are playing for nothing. The Ravens are coming off a short week pummeling and I think Carson Palmer is alot better than how he's been playing. Look for TJ to light them up.
Lions (+1) @ Cardinals- The Cards almost beat the Bucs and they are a 1 point favorite over the Lions? I'm not convinced and the Lions have gone above and beyond expectations this year. They have an ugly schedule down the stretch so they need to take advantage of this weak opponent and who knows maybe they'll be back in Arizona(yeah, right)
Cowboys(-1.5) @ Giants- I want to believe the Giants are for real, but they continue to let me down. Last time around players were falling apart but I expect a closer game. It comes down to who do you want in the clutch Tony Romo or Eli Mannng, my thoughts exactly.
Bears @ Raiders(+3)- The Raiders are about due for a come out of nowhere win and the Bears have let people down in just about every category. Interim fantasy starter Justin Fargas gets the start for the Raiders and I hope he has a coming out party against the once relentless Bears defense. Hopefully Daunte gets hurt and we can finally see JaMarcus Russell touch a football this year.
Colts @ Chargers(+3.5)- HUGE upset. The Colts are clearly missing Marvin Harrison and even if he plays this week he wont be the same. The Chargers D have to redeem themselves after being b*tched by AP last week. The Chargers always put on a show at home and I think they steal one.
49ers (+10) @ Seahawks- They have to win EVENTUALLY.
Those are the picks lemme know what you think
