NFL Week 13

Last week, 12-4. Overall, 113-73-1.

Thoughts from Last week:

-Dallas is bad. Who would've thought that the run game had such an impact on the team as a whole.
-Benching Eli Manning, even though I hate the Giants, is a stupid stupid move.
- Browns, 5 more games. I know you beat the Chargers last year, but can you like, not.
- Titans and Jaguars are on some sort of collision course for the AFC South title.
- Chiefs have lost 5 of their last 6. I think they were rated way too high. Thought they'd be a lot better, but nope.
- Eagles are playing great. They look unbeatable. Big tests looming for them though.
- Rams have to hold on to win the division, they have a lot of big games coming up.

Thursday November 30th

Both teams are 5-6.
(NBC) Redskins at Cowboys - Redskins are seemingly in a much better place to make a playoff run than the Cowboys. This could and most likely will be a one sides beatdown. Dallas' defense is nonexistent. If they do not address the defense in the next couple of drafts/free agency, they will be wasting Dak and Ezekiel's prime years. Redskins 31, Cowboys 17

Sunday December 3rd

(FOX) Vikings (9-2) at Falcons (7-4) - Julio Jones is a beast. So is the Vikings. the Falcons, if they want to close the gap for the number 2 seed, have to win, and I don't see that happening. Not with the way the Vikings defense is playing. Actually, the Falcons can win, they need to put pressure on Keenum. I am going to take a leap and say the Falcons will win a close game. Falcons 27, Vikings 24

(CBS) Patriots (9-2) at Bills (6-5) - The Bills won't win. I know they are hoping that they will, but they won't. Patriots 34, Bills 10

(CBS) 49ers (1-10) at Bears (3-8) - 49ers are just playing for seeding now. A win now, will cost them a top 3 pick. I don't see them winning any games, they've won their one game and now they can lose the rest. Bears 27, 49ers 13

(FOX) Buccaneers (4-7) at Packers (5-6) - Warm weather team in a cold climate? I think the Packers showed a lot against a good Steelers team. They should and will build on that and beat the Bucs. Packers 21, Bucs 10

(CBS) Texans (4-7) at Titans (7-4) - Texans aren't a bad team, just no consistent play at QB. The Titans need to play a ball control game, and leave with the W. Titans 20, Texans 10

(FOX) Broncos (3-8) at Dolphins (4-7) - Both teams are bad. It's like picking cyanide or rat poison. I'll go Broncos, because they desperately need a win. Broncos 16, Dolphins 9

(CBS) Chiefs (6-5) at Jets (4-7) - The Chiefs are in a free fall. This is a game they can win, but the Jets, they aren't an easy out. No turnovers, ball control, Chiefs right the ship. Chiefs 24, Jets 13

(CBS) Colts (3-8) at Jaguars (7-4) - Jaguars are a young, talented team, with a QB who is so inconsistent. The Colts, well everything is bad about them. They are steamrolling toward a top 5 pick right now. Jaguars want to win the South, they have to beat the Colts down. Jaguars 34, Colts 17

(FOX) Lions (6-5) at Ravens (6-5) - Barely, barely, both teams are still in the playoff race. Must win game. The Ravens, they have a lot of inconsistent play. The Lions, well their defense is their Achilles heel. Going to be a close game, and the Lions get the win on the road. Lions 27, Ravens 24

(CBS) Browns (0-11) at Chargers (5-6) - CHARGERS FINISH THEM. Chargers 31, Browns 9.

(FOX) Giants (2-9) at Raiders (5-6) - I don't like the Giants, but besides that, I think the way Eli Manning's demotion was handled was pure garbage. GENO SMITH. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

(gasp).

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH

(and like 50,0000more of those).



Raiders 41, Giants 10


Both teams 8-3


(FOX) Panthers at Saints -  This is going to be a great game. The Panthers are playing great, but this, this game, is the big test. They want to win the South? They have to beat the Saints. They have to stay ahead of the Falcons. Will they? I don't think so. I think the Saints throttle that defense. Saints 34, Panthers 20

(FOX) Rams (8-3) at Cardinals (5-6) - The Rams should beat the lowly Cardinals. Rams 35, Cardinals 17

(NBC) Eagles (10-1) at Seahawks (7-4) - I want to say the Eagles are the real deal. I want to say that, and maybe I will. But to be considered the real deal, they have to beat teams like the Seahawks AT HOME. Can they? Sure. Will they? Remains to be seen. This is the biggest game, because if they can't win, and they can't beat that Seahawks defense that is seriously depleted, well everyone will know how they can be beat. I think the Seahawks stun the other birds at home. Seahawks 24, Eagles 17

Monday December 4th

(ESPN) Steelers (9-2) at Bengals (5-6) - In danger of missing the playoffs, which they will, the Bengals are one of those teams that is a true surprise. All the talent in the world, mediocre for the last decade. How Marvin Lewis has kept his job, which he won't beyond this season, is bonkers. Steelers came off a good win last week, their defense, once the toast of Steeltown, is not good. They need to put on a strong display this week, because they have a showdown coming with the Patriots. Steelers 21, Bengals 10

Happy NFL Week 13!

NFL Week 11


Last week 12-2-1 (mostly because I didn't care about the Panthers Dolphins game and abstained from picking a winner). So on the season, 95-61-1

Thoughts from last Week:

-Dallas, no way you should've lost as bad as you did. Elliott doesn't play defense. 
- Patriots look like they are gearing up for the postseason.
- Still not sold on the Panthers.
- Giants are as bad as advertised, if not worse.
-Don't sleep on the Rams, they are killin teams right now.
- Vikings as well.
- Browns can go the distance.
- Saints look scary. The NFC South is going to be one heck of a finish.

Thursday November 16th

(NBC) Titans (6-3) at Steelers (7-2) - Despite the record, not overly impressed by the Steelers. something is up with that offense. for all the offensive stars it has, it's not that great. No rhythm. Now they have to deal with a Titans defense that is more than formidable. I don't see a win for Pittsburgh, although I'm typically wrong. Titans 20, Steelers 13

Sunday November 19th

(FOX) Lions (5-4) at Bears (3-6) - The Lions are starting to turn it around at the right point. They get a weak Bears team, and can pile on some points and try to make up some ground on the division leading vikings. If they want to do that, they have to start with weak teams like this. Lions 27, Bears 10

(CBS) Jaguars (6-3) at Browns (0-9) - Look, the Browns suck. I don't need to keep beating the drum on what I want. I want a perfect reverse season. Jaguars 34, Browns 17

(CBS) Ravens (4-5) at Packers (5-4) - The Ravens, surprisingly are bad. I thought they'd finish with a 10 win season, and they still might, but they are a bad team. They have to go to Lambeau and win? I don't see that happening. Not the way that offense is playing. Packers 21, Ravens 10

(FOX) Buccaneers (3-6) at Dolphins (4-5) - Not playing this game in week 1 due to the hurricane really set these two teams on the same path. Thought the Bucs would challenge for the division, but nope. They are mediocre at best. They can beat the Dolphins, cause they aren't good either. Bucs 27, Dolphins 17

(FOX) Rams (7-2) at Vikings (7-2) - The Rams are playing some great football. they can give any team in this league a run for their money. I think the inevitable Rams/Eagles playoff game will be amazing. For now, they take on a Vikings team that gave up a lot of points to a mediocre Redskins offense. Will the Rams exploit that? you betcha. Vikings get behind, they won't be able to catch up, not with that Rams defense. Rams 37, Vikings 20

(FOX) Redskins (4-5) at Saints (7-2) - Saints have been dropping points at a huge clip. Redskins get behind, this is going to get ugly fast. I have a feeling that the Redskins pull off the upset though. Redskins 31, Saints 27

(CBS) Chiefs (6-3) at Giants (1-8) - The Giants are bad. This might be one of those 41 point losses. Chiefs 47, Giants 9

(FOX) Cardinals (4-5) at Texans (3-6) - Both teams are bad. Neither has a QB that can lead them to a decisive victory. Cardinals can win on the road, but damn both teams are heading for a top 10 pick. Cardinals 24, Texans 17

(FOX) Bills (5-4) at Chargers (3-6) - I always want to think that the Bills will be good, Chargers too, but both are just mediocre. The Chargers haven't been good, and keep finding creative ways to lose. The Bills defense is just horrific. Bills should drop the Chargers. Bills 28, Chargers 13

(CBS) Bengals (3-6) at Broncos (3-6) - The Broncos have some bad loses on their resume. Their vaunted defense, has been a punching bag. They have no consistency on offense. No ball control. The Bengals, same. Marvin Lewis should be out by the end of the season. Broncos, well they need a lot of help. Bad matchups this weekend. This is a game I could care less about. Broncos should win at home. Broncos 20, Bengals 10

(CBS) Patriots (7-2) at Raiders (4-5) - The Raiders won't survive the beatdown that is coming. They are an ill prepared team that could've been a lot more. Patriots 34, Raiders 10

(NBC) Eagles (8-1) at Cowboys (5-4) - Thus starts the slow descent to an 8-8 season for the Cowboys. The Eagles, with all of their weapons, will bury the Cowboys. Eagles 41, Cowboys 10

Monday November 20th

(ESPN) Falcons (5-4) at Seahawks (6-3) - I want to think the Seahawks are as good as their record, but if we are being honest, they are not. They have not played all that great. The Falcons, well their record is right where I thought it would be. They are not a good team either. The two teams colliding on Monday night should show that each team has their flaws. The defense for the Seahawks will be exploited now that Sherman is out. It's not like they have been shutting teams down. The Falcons defense is also bad. So it should be a high scoring ramajam fest. Falcons 42, Seahawks 35

Happy NFL Week 11

NFL WEEK 10


Last week 8-5 season 83-59

Thoughts from last week

-Too many NFL fights and ejections last week.
- Eagles look like the team to beat. 
-Rams look pretty good too. They've dropped a lot of points this season. Already more points than they scored last season.
-I thought the Bucs would take  step forward this season, they have not.
-Saints though, look out NFC South.
- Also, Jaguars. You haven't wilted under pressure yet.
-Browns, 49ers...you keep up that losing.
- Seahawks are not a dominant football team. That defense has aged.
- Dallas is surprising. I mean, they still have to play the Eagles twice. That defense, as usual, needs a serious upgrade though.
- i mean, how bad are the Giants.

Thursday November 9th

(NBC) Seahawks (5-3) at Cardinals (4-4)- I am surprised the Seahawks aren't 7-1 at this point. Lost games they should've won. Aren't scoring as much. Not protecting Wilson as much as they should. Cardinals, same. They could be a lot better, but poor play, and turnovers have killed them. No Carson Palmer, I don't like the chances of the Cardinals as the Seahawks come in and attempt to rebound from the loss at home last week. Seahawks 24, Cardinals 14


Sunday November 12th

(CBS) Saints (6-2) at Bills (5-3) - Bills are another one of those up and down teams. Don't let the 5-3 record fool you. They are not as good as their record indicates, and will be tested by a high scoring NFC South leading Saints team. I don't think it's a blowout, but I think the Saints go into Buffalo and win a close game. Saints 27, Bills 24

(FOX) Packers (4-4) at Bears (3-5) - In the NFL, one play away from being good, or being bad. Had the Packers had better protection, Rodgers wouldn't be hurt. One play changed their season. Now, they will be fighting the Bears for last place in the division. Hundley played good last week, but he needs to evade sacks, and step up in the pocket and throw the ball instead of dancing around back there. Packers win, but it won't be pretty. Packers 17, Bears 10

(CBS) Browns (0-8) at Lions (4-4) - My stance has not changed. Lions, finish them. Lions 31, Browns 17

(FOX) Bengals (3-5) at Titans (5-3) - Bengals have not been impressive. Matter of fact, I think ol Marvin Lewis will finally be on the hot seat. Bengals have underperformed for years. Sure, they've made the playoffs, but usually a quick out. Time for some change in Cincy. I think the Titans win this one. Titans 27, Bengals 12

(CBS) Steelers (6-2) at Colts (3-5) - Steelers continue their streak. The Colts have won more games than I thought they would. Steelers need to keep pace in the AFC if they want to snag one of those first round byes. They have to beat teams like this. Steelers 34, Colts 17

(CBS) Jets (4-5) at Buccaneers (2-6) - With the way they finished the season, and the personnel they added, I was certain the Bucs would be 6-2 at this point. Instead, they have regressed. Jets, well they aren't expected to compete in that division. They are still in rebuilding mode. They should knock off the Bucs though. Jets 24, Bucs 13

(FOX) Vikings (6-2) at Redskins (4-4) - Honestly, still surprised the vikings are good. The division now, is weak, but they are playing good. Reminder, they did this last season and sucked the rest of the way. To avoid that, they have to get consistent QB play. Just read that Bridgewater is practicing and he was good before he got hurt. Sam Bradford is always hurt. Redskins well, I can see them playing a close game, and possibly stealing it like they did in Seattle last week. Redskins 20, Vikings 17

(CBS) Chargers (3-5) at Jaguars (5-3) - Jaguars, gather round younglings. You see if you want to make it, you want to appear legitimate, these are games you have to win. Against low rung bottom feeders. The Chargers, are not good. You can beat them. You have to believe in yourself. Like that guy over there believes in you. Jaguars 24, Chargers 17

(CBS) Texans (3-5) at Rams (6-2) - Replace everything I just said about the Jaguars, with the Rams. Rams 37, Texans 9

(FOX) Cowboys (5-3) at Falcons (4-4) - Falcons are seeing the effect of the Super Bowl loser curse. Doesn't mean they won't win, but they are not good. Dallas has no one to stop Julio Jones. Matt Ryan has to be licking his wing, hoping to be able to throw down the field. Sorry Cowboys, you are going to get murdered. Falcons 34, Cowboys 14

(FOX) Giants (1-7) at 49ers (0-9) - Giants, I want to believe you'll win, but I don't believe you will. 49ers 17, Giants 6

(NBC) Patriots (6-2) at Broncos (3-5) - Broncos, for all the defense you have, that offense can not save you. Patriots 34, Broncos 10

Monday November 13th

(ESPN) Dolphins (4-4) at Panthers (6-3) - Dolphins suck. I hate Cam Newton, I hope both teams tie. Dolphins 7, Panthers 7.

Happy NFL Week 10
