NFL Week 5

Notes from Week 4

1. I totally nailed that Giants/Vikings game and score. 24-10. I don't get the exact score right often (looked back, only 3 other times) so I'm proud of that. Plus, the Vikings, they seem like one of those special teams right now.

2. Don't gloat, Bills. Tom is coming back. The rematch will be a lot different.

3. Seems that Tony Romo can take it easy in coming back. Prescott is playing great.

4. Cardinals, you are ruining my Super Bowl pick.

5. Panthers, look horrible. 

6. Julio Jones had a monster game last week. 300 plus yards receiving last week. 

7. I mean, the Raiders are playing good. They need to keep playing good.

8. Flipside, The Chargers, damn. They are bad. 

9. Broncos and Vikings look really good. Whether one or both make it to the Super Bowl doesn't matter right now. Their defenses are amazing. 

10. Now that Le'Veon Bell is back, the Steelers are going to be dangerous.

11. Keep being you, Browns.

Bye Week Teams- Chiefs, Saints, Seahawks, Jaguars

Thursday October 6th

(CBS) Cardinals (1-3) at 49ers (1-3) - Well, Carson Palmer is officially out, as he is in the concussion protocol for the NFL. I tell you, the Cardinals are playing terribly. The 49ers aren't so great either. Thing is the 49ers are without 3 starters this week. The Cardinals have a good defense, should be able to slow down the 49ers crappy offense. Cardinals 17, 49ers 9

Sunday October 9th

(CBS) Patriots (3-1) at Browns (0-4) - hahaha, I won't waste your time. Tom Brady is back. The Browns suck. He's going to come out and fling about 5 TD passes Sunday. Patriots 41, Browns 7

(FOX)  Eagles (3-0) at Lions (1-3) - The way Carson Wentz is playing, I wouldn't be surprised if he has a 3TD game Sunday. The Lions certainly are bottom dwellers, and lost to the crappy lowly Bears. Eagles defense should hold the Lions in check. Eagles 27, Lions 10

(FOX) Bears (1-3) at Colts (1-3) - Highly unusual that the team returning from London doesn't have a bye week. Colts probably don't need it anyway, considering they suck. The Bears, no better. Colts are home, that's the only reason why I'm picking them. Colts 24, Bears 17

(CBS) Titans (1-3) at Dolphins (1-3) - The Dolphins defense is supposed to be their best unit of the team, but it's not all that great. Overall, the Dolphins aren't good. They continue to lose games and have an inept offense. The Titans, well we expected them to be bad. This should be a good game, because both teams are bad. Dolphins 21, Titans 13

(FOX) Redskins (2-2) at Ravens (3-1) - Both teams are not that far apart from each other. Only thing is, the Ravens are playing a lot better and could be 4-0, if not for a few letdowns last week. Time to see if Kirk Cousins is for real, and he very well could be, but he has to start winning games, won't win this week. Ravens 28, Redskins 24

(CBS) Texans (3-1) at Vikings (4-0) - I'm going to roll with the Vikings again. They are pretty good on defense. The Texans haven't found their footing on offense yet. Good defense, mediocre offense. Look for the Vikings to get to an early lead. Vikings 27, Texans 13

(CBS) Jets (1-3) at  Steelers (3-1)- Right now, the Jets aren't the team that you should be worried about. The offense is crap, the defense is aging. That should be a worry against the Steelers who looked amazing last week. Will they score that many points? No. But they will hit the thirties. Steelers 34, Jets 12

(FOX) Falcons (3-1) at Broncos (4-0) - I don't think the Falcons will even get close to replicating last week, especially against the Broncos, but they have showed they are capable of scoring a ton of points. The Broncos, stingy. Falcons should be shut down this week. Broncos 24, Falcons 9

(CBS) Bengals (2-2) at Cowboys (3-1) - the Bengals played good, good enough to win. They aren't the same team from last season. They are statistically worse in a lot of categories.  Should be a worry in their division, so they need to start playing better. Dallas, is not great, but they are better than we imagined without Tony Romo. The rookies (Prescott, Elliott) are playing great. Bryant is out, so they need their receivers to step up again. Dallas will play good, and lose. Bengals 24, Cowboys 20

(CBS) Bills (2-2) at Rams (3-1) - To my surprise, and probably theirs, the Rams are 3-1. Doing it with defense mostly. Case Keenum is not bad, but not a great QB either. Bills, are on a mini roll. They come into town on a two game win streak. I expect them to extend it to three. Bills 17, Rams 9

(CBS) Chargers (1-3) at Raiders (3-1) - The Chargers score a lot of points and somehow have lost three games. Division games are tough, and the Raiders have played good. I think they escape a high scoring affair. Raiders 35, Chargers 31

(NBC) Giants (2-2) at Packers (2-1) - I don't know what to make of the Giants. They are one of those teams that play good, play bad, play good, play terrible. They face a Packers team, who at home, is pretty untouchable. If Manning doesn't get going and get Beckham involved early, they are going to be in trouble. That high priced defense isn't as great as they hoped it would be, yet. Packers are going to come out hot, out of the bye week. Packers 38, Giants 20

Monday October 10th

(ESPN) Buccaneers (1-3) at Panthers (1-3) - If you would've told me that the Panthers would be 1-3, I'd be like "SAYYYYYYYY WHAAAAAAA" but here we are, most of the "fans" have rolled off the bandwagon, Cam Newton looks horrible, the defense is terrible, Josh Norman is taking shots at them. Not a good look for a team coming off a Super Bowl appearance. Bucs, well no one expects them to compete for titles, yet. Give them about three years. For now, I think the Bucs slip by. Bucs 21, Panthers 20

Happy NFL WEEK 5!
