Here are this weeks picks. Nicks picks are in blue and Ken’s picks are in red…ENJOY!!!
Detroit 17 /9 Chicago 28 /21
Detroit only recently learned how to win. It will take time to learn how to win on the road.
The Lions may be able to pull out another win here an a tough division game, but you have to believe that Chicago will find a way to win.
Cincinnati 34 /28 Cleveland 24 /10
Derek Anderson can lead the Browns offense but not their defense. The Browns can’t stop anyone right now.
This is the breaking point for the Brownes, if they can not find a way to win against the Bengals there season is all but lost. With that being said, the Browns will not be able to get anything going against Cincy’s tough defense.
Oakland 18 /14 Houston 40 /24
Houston has been bipolar this year. Oakland has been consistently bad. Houston has way to much offense.
The Raiders have been on a downward spiral since there strong open. Mostly in part by Russell’s regression. So they will not be able to get up with schaubs offense
Seattle 13 /21 Indianapolis 38 /38
The Colts have been very balanced this year. Seattle will be outmanned.
With Hasslback out once again this week, it will be very hard to for the Seahawks to get anything going up against that colts D, non the less keep up with Manning.
Tennessee 28/14 Jacksonville 24/7
Tennessee is a desperate team that cannot go 0-4. Jacksonville always plays tough at home but the more desperate team will find a way to win.
The Titans should come away with a fairly easy victory against the Jacksonville. As long as Collins can get back into a rhythm.
NY Giants 40/28 Kansas City 13 /7
One of the NFC’s best teams will be too much for one of the AFC’s worst teams. This one will be over early.
This game will be a blow out, the Giants are just too good, and the Chiefs are just too bad.
Baltimore 31 /24 New England 24 /31
This will be a year of the Ravens slaying their demons starting with this game. Baltimore has had this one circled since last years ugly affair on monday night. New England’s defense has not looked as traditionally strong as in years past.
This game is a must watch. It is going to deiced the pecking order in the AFC. Brady will be looking to rebound from his poor performance last week and come away with another close victory.
Tampa Bay 13/21 Washington 16/28 ~ BORE OF THE WEEK~
Washington will get a very ugly must win in a battle of teams who don’t move the ball well
Redskins will get skinned by the fans if they do not pull out this victory against the weak Bucs.
Buffalo 21/21 Miami 20/7
Buffalo will steal this one and send the Dolphins soul searching with a 0-4 record. The dolphins must find an identity and quick.
The loss of the their starting quarterback will hurt the Dolphins a lot. With a new quarterback at the helm they will have a hard time finding any rhythm.
NY Jets 31/28 New Orleans 27/36
I trust the jets defense more so than the saints defense. the saints will show the rest of the league whether they can hang with a balanced team.
This here is another must watch, this very well could be a preview of the superbowl. The Jets Offense will not be able to keep up with the Saints Passing attack. Although they will try.and com close.
Dallas 30/18 Denver 15/12
The Broncos 3-0 record is an aberration and it only gets tougher for denver after this one.
This game a tough one to call, Dallas should be able to steal the victory here but I would not be surprised to see Denver skate on bye.
St. Louis 10/14 San Francisco 35/28
The 49′s defense will impose its will on the worst offense in the NFL. The Rams are in disarray right now.
The rams will once again try and pull away a win, but San Fran will prove to once again be too much for the rams to handle.
Green Bay 23/24 Minnesota 31/21 ~GAME OF THE WEEK~
The Packers Offensive line will be mismatched against the Vikings Defensive line. This one will be close throughout,but Brett Favre knows how to win close games and now so do the Vikings.
This will be a tough game for both teams. The pressure will get to Favre and make him throw so balls that he should not,therefore causing costly mistakes. This game should be determined by a Last second FG like the recent VIKE. PACK games have gone.
San Diego 24 /18 Pittsburgh 18/24
San Diego as become adept at hanging around and the Steelers have become adept at hanging themselves out to dry.
The Steelers should get back on track against the chargers at home.
