NFL Week 12 predictions

It's early on turkey day, and I guess I should get to pickin'. So here goes:

Packers over Lions
Cowboys over Raiders
Giants over Broncos
Falcons over Bucs
Dolphins over Bills
Eagles over Skins
Seahawks over Rams
Panthers over Jets
Bengals over Browns
Colts over Texans
Chargers over Chiefs
Jaguars over 49ers
Vikings over Bears
Titans over Cardinals
Ravens over Steelers
Patriots over Saints

NFL Week 11 picks...

So, with 10 weeks in the books, my record stands at 88-56. My 6-9 record from last week certainly didn't help. Anyway, here are my picks for this week as I try to stay above .500:

Thursday
Panthers over Dolphins

Sunday
Steelers over Chiefs
Giants over Falcons (If Turner was healthy, I'd probably go the other way with this one)
Saints over Buccaneers
Packers over 49ers
Vikings over Seahawks
Lions over Browns (because the Browns really are that bad)
Jaguars over Bills
Cowboys over Redskins
Ravens over Colts (they have to lose eventually)
Cardinals over Rams
Patriots over Jets (Pats too good to lose to the Jets twice in one season)
Bengals over Raiders (I'm becoming a Bengals believer; and the Raiders suck)
Chargers over Broncos
Eagles over Bears

Monday
Titans over Texans (should be a really good game)

There you have it.

NFL Week 10 Picks (the sequel)

Here are the rest of my picks to round out the Week 10 schedule:

Falcons over Panthers
Dolphins over Bucs
Vikings over Lions
Jets over Jaguars
Steelers over Bengals
Saints over Rams
Titans over Bills
Broncos over Redskins
Raiders over Chiefs
Cardinals over Seahawks
Cowboys over Packers
Eagles over Chargers
Patriots over Colts
Ravens over Browns

A few of these I kind of waffled on a little bit before making my final pick, so it was kind of a tough week for some. Jets-Jags, Boys-Pack, Eagles-Bolts I think could all go either way. We'll see how it turns out.

NFL Week 10 (Take 1)

These Thursday night games always mess with me because I don't really have my mind put together yet to start making predictions about football. So, I'm going to take the easy way out and just pick the winner of tonight's game and save the rest for later. Here goes:

Both teams were bad last week. In fact, the Niners are on a four-game skid. I kind of feel like they are the better team here, but for some reason they can't win. That said, even though San Fran is a better team, I think the Bears are playing better right now. I'll take Chicago on the road for my first victory of the week.

Go ahead, prove me wrong.
