Week 13 Picks

On to the picks for another weekend of waiting for everyone to play before the Patriots.

Sunday Dec 3rd

49ers @ Panthers - Panthers, for no reason other than I want to see the Patriots get a top 3 draft pick. This one is a tossup to me though, but I'll stick with the Panthers

Jaguars @ Colts - the sexy pick here is the Jags, but I think reality sets in and the Colts come away with a win. The Jags always play them tough, but in the end Manning will have just enough to beat them.

Chargers @ Chiefs - Some tough games this week to pick. With Norv being Norv you never know what's going to happen. Chargers should win easily, but you could have said that about most of their losses this season. If LT rushes for 125+ they'll win, which I think he will.

Jets @ Dolphins - wow. just wow. why couldnt this have been on the NFL Network? I'm going to say the Dolphins get their first win of the season here. The Jets are that bad and if I wish for this hard enough it just might come true.

Lions @ Vikings - Stick a fork in the Lions, their magical ride is over.

Bucs @ Saints - Saints offense is finally playing like it should and I'm not sold on the Bucs defense stopping them like they stopped the Skins.

Seahawks @ Eagles - Time to come back to earth Eagles. You had your superbowl last week, now you'll play like its your pro bowl this week. Not that I like the Seahawks, but just a bit more than the Eagles this week.

Falcons @ Rams - This is the NFC version of the Dolphins/Jets game. You don't care any more than I do about this team and their level of mediocrity so close that it's not worth betting on.

Texans @ Titans - Remember when the Titans were good....i mean Lions good? Texans roll over them this week.

Bills @ Redskins - The "Let's do it for Sean" factor is tough here. If the Bills defense could remember that they're supposed to be able to form a pass rush I'd say they win, but the emotional of the home crowd and fired up Skins players should make this an easy one.

Browns @ Cardinals - Coach of the Year Romeo Crennel continues his campaign against the not quite as good as you think Cardinals. Way to go Romeo, even though no one has pointed out exactly what you've done to make this team better other than getting bad starters hurt and replacing them with surprisingly good ones.

Broncos @ Raiders - There are a lot of bad games this weekend. Broncos take this one because they can rush the ball and the Raiders can't stop anyone on the ground. That said it will be close because they both suck.

Giants @ Bears - Giants don't kick to Hester this week, so they win since that's the only way the Bears can score points.

Bengals @ Steelers - I don't understand why the Steelers have so many critics. They aren't the Patriots, but they're certainly the Jaguars or Colts. And the Bengals are the Bengals.

Army of Darkness vs Ravens - So they were going to win by 21 points at least before today. But now you have them playing on MNF after Ron Jaworski made a big deal out of Moss taking a couple of plays off, then you had Tom Brady firing back angrily today. 64-6

Have a great weekend everyone. I'll be posting from tropical Madison Wisconsin after the Monday Night Game. Fortunately for them, they didn't get the Packers game on TV last night either.
