Too embarrassing!

Thanks for the thread!

NYG @ MIA - NYG - The Dolphins are out of water. Ronnie Brown being lost for the season is a fatal blow to a team already devastated by injury. They traded their top receiver for picks because they know the fork has been stuck in them. The Giants are again among the top contenders in the NFC. Plaxico Burress has been a madman on the field every week without participating in practice due to an ankle injury. He has 8 TD's so far this season and Eli Manning is not having any trouble finding him.

OAK @ TEN - TEN - Oakland is going to play a tough team on the road after a hard loss to the Chiefs. The Titan's defense is ranked first against the run and the faders are ranked 29th in the pass.

PHI @ MIN - PHI - The Vikings are last in the league on pass defense. This is just the kind of game McNabb needs.

CLE @ STL - STL - They gotta win one eventually... Right? The Rams are in the middle of the pack in defense for totaly yards allowed while the Browns are dead last. If St. Louis harbors any hope of winning, they need to try to close that very extensive gap on offense between them (30th) and the Browns (7th). I know, I'm crazy for this one...

DET @ CHI - DET - The Lions just keep getting it done. I always pick against them and they bite me for it.

IND @ CAR - IND - The Colts were so impressive against the Jaguars that they have definately established themselves to be solidly in first place of the AFC South after already winning all 3 of their divisional road games. They have also made case and point to be regarded as one of the two best teams in the NFL. If Peyton had the gawdy numbers that Brady is currently putting up, everybody would be talking about the Colts instead.

PIT @ CIN - PIT - Chad Johnson hasn't been in practice. The Bengals look like they are unraveling fast. They need this game more than the Steelers but thanks to the donkeys, Pittsburgh is now in gut-check-time as well to try and prove themselves a force in the AFC.

JAC @ TB - TB - Gurrard out kills the Jags in this game. Garcia and Gurrard would have made a nice match-up but Gray showed how neccessary to the team Gurrard is after last week. Jacksonville had better hope he comes back soon.

BUF @ NYJ - BUF - They almost beat the Cowbowys. They beat the Ravens last week. The Jets are still lousy last time I checked.

HOU @ SD - HOU - Houston realises now that they are going to have to get a wild card if anything so they are going to be fired up no matter what. They put up 36 points last week and Sage Rosenfels went crazy for 4 TD's.

NO @ SF - NO - Niners are last in the league offensively... Ouch.

WAS @ NE - NE - As good as Washington is, Tom Brady has had only the best crafters and enchanters make his magical football armor (offensive line) for him. 27 TD's and all the time in the world... Wow.

GB @ DEN - GB - Last in rushing (GB) against last in rushing defense (DEN). 2nd in passing (GB) versus 2nd in pass defense(DEN). This should be interesting. I think the Packers will find just enough of a rushing game against the donkeys to keep Farve comfortable to pick up those third downs.

[rbedgood]

NYG @ MIA NYG...both teams are on a roll, just opposite directions.

NO @ SF SF...one of these weeks I have to be right
WAS @ NE NE...sets up a dynamite matchup next week with Indy

I have read your picks and agree with almost all of them...

I will let you know which ones I disagree with after the weekend.

I have been unable to do this.

How many persons can pull off a perfect betting weekend?

:D

[Chiefster]

I have given up trying to pick 'em.

Too embarrassing!

Thanks for the thread!

I'm the same way; if it doesn't involve the Chiefs I really am at a loss.

[rbedgood]

I've done the perfect weekend a few times (over the last 12-15 years)...so it isn't common, but it is possible.

:D


I run a football pool at work, and last year there was a week when I had a tie between two of the players. Both of them were 16-0. One of them forgot to fill-out the tie-breaker, (Monday night score) and the other guy hit the tie-breaker on the money. So I had to tell the one guy, that while he got all of the games right, he was still a loser.

Giants vs Fins~ Giants will win the first game overseas. This is a no brainer really. The Giants D is stellar and will the Fins don't even sparkle right now.

Faders @ Titans~ I will go with the Titans. Not just because I hate the faders but because the Titans are at home and that will be the advantage they have.

Eagles @ Vikings~This is a toss up but I will go with McNabb and crew.

Browns @ St. Louis~ Does St. Louis know that they are playing Derek Anderson this week?

Det @ Chi~ Da Bears. Playing at Soldier Field and Griese is improving. Kitna will have a good game but I see the Bears winning

Indy @ Car~ Indy is solid and well the Cats not so much. Indy will go undefeated into the Pats game.

Pit @ Bengals~ Ocho and Palmer better do something quick but it won't be in this game. Pitt wins

Jags @Bucs~I am going with Tampa Bay. Indy showed the Jags weekness and isn't Maurice sitting out of this game.

Buf @ Jets~ Who cares about either team playing or winning IMO. Tossing coin and heads have it so I am going with the Jets

Texans @ dolts~ San Diego's head is somewhere else but they will pull out a win agaisnt the injured Texans

Saints @ 49er's ~ Saints win and go into the bye one game from .500

Was @ Pats~ Brady for 7 td's, nah but he will get the W.

[chief31]

Looks like we all forgot to address the Monday Night Football game.

I editted mine in. Green Bay will be at Denver.

[rbedgood]

I just realized the same thing...I have 7 right so far...I'll take Green Bay tomorrow night.

9-3 in first week predicting games. Not bad.

I forgot the MNF game also. I will go with Favre and crew to win.

I hope to end up 10-3

[Canada]

I've done the perfect weekend a few times (over the last 12-15 years)...so it isn't common, but it is possible.

If you can get a perfect week picking str8 up winners, you could make a lot of money in Canada. We bet the pools every week and the only game I got wrong was the Bears.
