Here is this weeks NFL breakdown.....
Saints at Titans:
CJ2K is FINALLY coming back to life and the Tennessee Titans are playing very good football on both sides of the. Their issue, however, is that the best QB (Sorry Discount Double Check) in the NFL, Drew Brees, is coming to town and is looking to keep his record SHATTERING season on pace. Can the Titans keep CJ2K at 5.7 YPC to keep that Saints offense off the field? I do not think so....Saints---31 Titans---17
Colts at Ravens:
Not much to say here. The Indiannapolis Colts are 0-12 and are starting Dan Orlovsky.....yep Dan Orlovsky. The Baltimore Ravens are the best team in the AFC, and after dismantling the lowly Cleveland Browns last week, look to have turned the page on losing to bad football teams (not to mention they just arent losing at home 6-0 this year 9-1 over teh last 2 years). Shouldn't be close as the the Ravens will improve to 3-9 vs the Colts in the Manning era (I know he isnt playing but who cares)... Colts---10 Ravens---38.
Chiefs at Jets:
The NY Jets are finding ways to win (it helps when other teams give you wins too, Washington Redskins I am talking to you). The Chiefs are the "little engine that kinda could"...Just not enough to beat the meteocre Jets and Palko vs Dirty Sanchez is like the undercard fights they dont show on the PPV... Chiefs---13 Jets---17
Vikings at Lions:
The Vikings are bad..really bad. AP is hurt and so is the rest of the offense. Christian Ponder needs to be thankful that Blaine Gabbert was in the same draft class, otherwise he would be the one being called the bust. He has had flashes of being pretty good and injuries have hurt his growth, but with that nasty Lions D coming to town, I would expect a return of the early season Lions Dominance. Matthew Stafford and Mega Tron (aka The Greatest Receiver in the world) will return to Fantasy greatness and lead me to the finals...oh sorry got a little excited there. Detroit Rock City is back...Vikings---7 Lions---38
Texans at Bengals:
This could have been the best game of the week, and it would have been with Schaub and Johnson healthy. Now though the Houston Texans need to find a way to beat this years surprise, the Cinncinati Bengals, with Tyler (seriously I did play in college guys) Yates and no Johnson. The Bengals run D, in keeping with AFC North tradition, is superperb and Arian Foster may not be much of a factor. That measn the Texans will HAVE to rely on Tyler Yates, which now makes the prediction easy...Texans---20 Bengals--27
Buccaneers at Jaguars:
No one will even show up at the stadium in Jacksonville for this game to matter. Break out the seat tarps JAX, SNOREFEST ALERT!!...Buccaneers---17 Jax---7
Falcons at Panthers:
The Atlanta Falcons are an enigma this year. They show flashes of last years NFC #1 seed, but then play like a middle of the pack team in other games. Matt Ryan needs to step up and manage the game better. Cam Newton is Offensive ROY, and should receive MVP votes. Watch out Falcons...Falcons---24 Panthers---28
Eagles at Dolphins:
The Philadelphia Eagles are underachievers and the Dolphins are overacheivers. Tony Sporano has found a way to make Reggie Bush relevant again and has his team playing above its heads for him. Andy Reid however cant make Desean Jackson happy, but does have Vick returning. His decision to make an O-line coach his defensive coordinator was a terrible decision. With that said though both streaks end today...Eagles---30 Dolphins---28
Patriots at Redskins:
Rob Grankowski is having a phenomenal year for the Pats and the Washington Redskins just are not very good. Rex Grossman inconsistencies mean he will have a strong day because he had a bad day last week and the New England Patriots Defense is that bad. Washington's D is up and down and "Tammy" Brady will throw for a ton today. Sorry skins fans, but avert your eyes today...Patriots---34 Redskins---20
49ers at Cardinals:
The 49ers have won the division but I do not believe Hulk Hogans little, brother Jim Harbaugh will let up. The Cardinals wasted a lot of resources on Kevin Corn Kolb, and left that D depleted. Patrick Peterson will return another punt I am sure to do his best Devon Hester impression but it doesnt matter...49ers---20 Cardinals---10
Bears at Broncos:
I only need to say one thing...JESUS' LITTLE BRO TIMMY T. WILL NOT LOSE SO CLOSE TO HIS BIG BRO'S BDAY! Bears---13 Broncos---18
Bills at Chargers:
Can someone please help the Bills. Is there anyone who wasnt happy they started so hot? Ryan Fitzpatrick is a likeable bearded Harvard Grad (not too many that are likeable) and Stevie Johnson is entertaining when he is not dropping game winning passes. Philip Rivers has to be hurt, and Norv Turner has taken this year to PROVE he is a turrible head coach. Bills---14 Chargers---24
Raiders at Packers:
At the beginning of the year we would have all passed this game up. Today I think this could be the best game of the day. Mr Discount Double Check is havin possibly the most accurate season anyone has EVER seen. Hue Jackson deserves a COY nod, but unfortuantely it aint in the cards, especially at Lambeau....Raiders---23 Packers---30
Giants at Cowboys:
Can anyone stop Tony Romo? Yep Only Tony Romo, the Giants and Jason Garrett. 1 week after Ice your own kicker-gate, the Dallas Cowboys can come out firing. The NY Giants need to stop the bleeding since they have given the division lead away. Eli has quietly been an MVP candidate (Still in Peytons shadow though since Peyton is still more deserving and hasnt played..ha)....Giants---28 Cowboys--27
Monday night Football:
Rams at Seahawks:
This game is awful and I am sure even Ron Jaworski wants to call in sick.....Rams---13 Seahawks---16
What are your predictions? Thoughts?
Nice blog. Need these picks sooner so I can make some $$$.
