The 49ers are in trouble, they do not need an intervention, they need an exorcist. The demon that lurks is their head coach and because of which it trickles throughout the entire team. Look for Matt Ryan, Tony Gonzalez and Roddy White to have huge games.
San Francisco 10, Atlanta 24
Update:
Well, I think my blog about firing Mike Singletary got a fire under his ass. He came out swinging. 14 points in the first quarter. But then, the 49ers ran out of steam.
San Francisco 14, Atlanta 16
Another no brainer. The Bills are maybe the worst in the NFL. They made a move to remove their most talented QB that the organization has. Well, that wasn't the best of moves. On the upside, the Bills defense has managed to perform well against high ranking receivers. Look to LT to have a big game this weekend.
New York 33, Buffalo 20
Update:
L.T. ran for over 130 yards. I guess all the smack San Diego was talking was just smack talk and not truth.
New York 38, Buffalo 14
The Bengals will attempt to prove that Carson Palmer still has what it takes to be an NFL QB. I think this will blow up in their face. I think Carson Palmer will come out swing attempting big throws and going deep but in return will receive a few interceptions and lose this game. Look for the Bengals rush defense to do well against Peyton Hills.
Cincinnati 10, Cleveland 13
Update:
Say T.O. Well, this was exactly what I expected. Palmer attempting to prove himself. Hey Palmer, "You need to win. That's how you can prove yourself."
Cincinnati 20, Cleveland 23
Green Bay lost to Chicago last week so expect them to play up to their top perfromance of the year. I would look for this game to not only be a one sided game but a complete and total blow out.
Detroit 3, Green Bay 33
Update:
I do not give the Lions enough credit. The Lions are a much better football team than only able to score 3 points. And, each week they go out and get better and better.
Detroit 26, Green Bay 28
I have gone both ways on both of these teams this year and lost every time. Broncos going into Tennessee, I'm going with the home town. The Broncos will be forced to use Tim Tebow because Orton will not perform well. Look for this to be a ground battle because both teams will have difficulty through the air.
Denver 13, Tennessee 20
Update:
I knew this game was going to ruin my fun. Orton threw for 341 yards, a pair of touchdowns and only one interception. Tim Tebow never entered the game. Tennessee lacks ambition and looks to be an 8-8 team.
Denver 26, Tennessee 20
After last week, Seattle will go into St. Louis and rape and pillage. I am now officially on the Seahawks bandwagon. This team has the fire power but lacks the strength. Look for the Seahawks to go to their strengths in Justin Fosset and John Clayton.
Seattle 33, St. Louis 22
Update:
I am officially off the Seahawk bandwagon. This team was disgusting. I wanted to cry while watching this game. Sloppy play, bad calls, and well overall just poor play. This team needs an new coach.
Seattle 3, St. Louis 20
The Panthers have a major problem at QB, but they have a huge strength at RB. I would look for Carolina to focus on the running game while the Saints will do what they do best.
Carolina 13, New Orleans 35
Update:
This game was much closer than I expected. Why isn't the Saints blowing out their opponents? This team has the talent to do so. Every week we see them just skating by. I think this is all part of their plan.
Carolina 14, New Orleans 16
This is the game of the week. Ravens turned on their offense last week and if they keep the momentum alive, I would look for Balitimore to defeat the Steelers at home. The Ravens are strong offensively and defensively. Pittsburgh still looks good even with Batch at the wheel. This will be a strong match up.
Baltimore 23, Pittsburgh 22
P.S. as a side note, I changed these numbers three times.
Update:
I am still not a big fan of Joe Flacco. This guy does well one week and then the next he does lousy. He is just an average QB with no real shot at ever being the next Joe Montana. However, he still got the job done.
Baltimore 17, Pittsburgh 14
No question here. The Colts will dismantle this defense and they will gain another victory. Between Garrard posing to be an NFL quarterback and Jones-Drew playing like a minor leaguer, I would expect that to continue. Look for the Colts offense to all have great games.
Colts 33, Jaguars 16
update:
Well, I would of never saw this coming. The mighty Colts upsetted by the Jags. I see pigs flying by my penthouse window.
Indianapolis 28, Jacksonville 31
I'm a little bitter last week after Oakland's loss. I personally, think the Raiders are a better team than the Texans. Oakland needs to watch out for the passing game in order to beat this team. The Texans will have a decent outting. I would look for Gradkowski and Schaub to have a 300+ game, Foster and McFadden will both post large numbers.
Houston 22, Oakland 23
Update:
Wow. Between the Raiders, Denver and Tennessee: I can't get it right. The Raiders are done. Their attempt at having a good season is over.
Houston 31, Oakland 24
The Chargers will defeat the Cardinals with ease. I would look for Philip Rivers to throw for over 400 yards. Rivers cries a lot and is a big nuance but he is a good player. The Chargers will attempt to keep the ball in the air while the cardinals will attempt to use their running game to their best ability.
Arizona 20, San Diego 33
Update:
I was quite sure the Chargers would take this game. Just not to this degree.
Arizona 10, San Diego 41
This should be the game of the week but its not. Vick vs. McNabb at the Eagles. I would look for the Eagles fans to boo a lot. (because they do not like any one or any thing.) I would also look for both Vick and McNabb to have big games. I would look for McNabb to do a little bit more rushing than he has in the past.
Washington 20, Philadelphia 21
Update:
I was completely wrong about this game. Philly fans gave McNabb a standing ovation. Vick got hurt and Kolb replaced him. From their the Eagles flew south for the winter.
Washington 17, Philadelphia 12
Chicago is on a roll. Look for Cutler to play the game of his life 500+ yards. Matt Forte will only have 10 rushes but will get over 100 yards.
Chicago 33, New York 20
Update:
Chicago got rocked. 10 sacks on Cutler. He couldn't do a thing against this defense. He left with a concussion. Forte...who?
Chicago 3, New York 17
Another this should be the game of the week. Miami needs this victory and so does the Patriots. So, I am going with the home team again. Not because any team makes a mistake, just because time runs out.
New England 14, Miami 21
Update:
I felt as if this game was going along as planned until the Patriots special teams stole the show.
New England 41, Miami 14
7 - 7 on the week! Wow.
