|
The new colts meet the old colts. Colts should come out of Baltimore with a win. |
The Colts have won all of ‘em thus far |

Redskins got a W last week.. so don’t expect one this week against the big D. |
Redskins/Cowboys games are always close ones…gotta go with the home team on this one. |

If it wasn’t for fantasy football, I don’t think anyone would care about this one. The Browns defense has looked respectable, but the Lions are just a better team as a whole (and at home). |

Packers |
|
Expectations at the beginning were high for both of these teams and now that we are midway through the season I can easily say they have both failed to meet those expectations. |
As I say every week, the Niners keep games close. But, in Lambeau, the Packers HAVE TO HAVE this win to stay in the playoff hunt. |

Jaguars |

MJD and the Jaguars are playing good. I don’t expect or foresee them losing to the Bills. Should be a close game though. |
Ok…I’m on board with these Jaguars now. They’re also at home playing against a team that just fired their head coach. |

Steelers |
|
Steelers should come out easily with a win but I’ve seen stranger things happen. |
To make up for last week’s close loss to the Bengals, this will be an utter beat down! |

Minnesota should run away with this one cause of the man child. |
With Forsett as the starting RB, the Seahawks could surprise the Vikings. But I just can’t see them beating them in Minnesota. |

With an injured Turner the Falcons are a different team. Same thing can be said about Eli and the Giants. Gotta go with the home team. |
No Turner, no way |

The Bucs don’t stand a chance against the high flying offense of the Saints |
Undefeated Saints…nuff said |

Cardinals |
|
The Rams have been playing tough so I’m not certain enough to say that the Cardinals will run away with this one. |
Which Rams WR is going to get hurt this week? Beanie Wells and the rest of the Cardinals offense are too much for the Rams. |

Chargers |
|
Denver’s defense will need to win this one because of the issue at QB for the Broncs. I’m not so sure they’ll be able to contain Rivers and the Chargers. |
No Orton, no way |

Bengals |

With the way Cincinnati has been playing this should be an easy win for them. |
Even without Benson, the Bengals should destroy the “Gradkowski-led” Raiders |

I like the Pats for this one. The Jets have completely fallen apart. |
Never go against Belichick/Brady at home |

Eagles |
|
I just don’t have any confidence in the Bears anymore even if they are in Soldier Field. |
Culter can’t throw 5 picks in back-to-back games, right? He’s single-handedly losing games for the Bears, so as long as he’s the starting QB playing against tough teams like the Eagles, I’m picking against the Bears. |

TEN @ HOU |

Texans |
Fred |
Texans |
|
The old Oilers meet the new Oilers… and Vince Young gets a chance to prove himself in front of a national crowd. I predict he doesn’t handle the pressure well and Houston gets the win. |
Texans are off a bye week at home…and Slaton is the starting RB again on MNF. This should be a great game! |
