Week Five Picks

Chiefs @ Panthers

The Panthers will be too physical for the Chiefs away from Arrowhead. Another losing streak begins Panthers win.

Chargers @ Dolphins

Amazingly enough the Dolphins have won the last six games against the the Chargers but that ends in this game. Chargers win.

Colts @ Texans

The gap isn't so big between these two teams but after the bye week the Colts should come out on top.

Seahawks @ Giants

Seattle doesn't travel well to the east coast. The Giants stood their ground and suspended Plax. The Giants pass rush should be enough in this game. Giants win.

Falcons @ Packers

If Aaron Rodgers starts I'll take the Packers.

Bears @ Lions

I think I saw the Uhauls at the Lions practice facility. The Lions have already moved on from this season. The Bears will keep their momentum going in their win.

Bills @ Cardinals

I'll take the upset on this one. The Cardinals are favored by 1. Warner may get his yards but the Bills are a more complete team.

Patriots @ 49ers

The Patriots are favored by 3 points. I can see an upset brewing. The Patriots have been gashed in the running game. But Belichick has had an extra week to prepare for this. I'm sure he watched LOTS of videos in the two weeks. I'll take the Patriots in a hard fought game.

Bengals @ Cowboys

If I had known Palmer wasn't playing last week I would have taken the Browns. The Cowboys are going to lose two in a row at home unless Wade wants to get "fired with cause". Cowboys win.

Vikings @ Saints

The underachieving Vikings travel to the Saints who are trying to not underachieve. Peterson should be able to get his yards and control the clock. Brees has been throwing the football great this season and that might be enough to get the win. Saints win.

Titans @ Ravens

Two great defenses in this game but the Titans have more experience. Maybe they'll even throw out Vince Young on a few plays. Titans win.

Redskins @ Eagles

The Redskins must be feeling really good about themselves. Their season might now be complete after beating the Cowboys in Dallas. That said the Eagles get a lot of their weapons back. Eagles win.

Steelers @ Jaguars

The Steelers are already starting to get beat down on offense. The Jags are beat up in the secondary. As long as the Jags keep everything in front of them they should be able to wear down the Steelers. Jags win.

Buccaneers @ Denver Broncos

I've been debating this game all week. One thing is sure: this game will be determined by turnovers. The Bucs having been winning their last few games by getting turnovers but Griese is also throwing many. The Broncos do have the advantage of knowing the key offensive minds for Tampa. Shanahan knows exactly what Griese is capable of and Bill Bates the Broncos QB coach spent three years with Gruden in Tampa. For most of the week I thought the Bucs would force enough turnovers to win but I think now the Broncos at home will rebound and do better securing the ball. Look for the Broncos to pick on Ronde Barber who has been getting beat all year long. I'm happy to say Broncos win.






Well we hurt each other then we do it again
