Weekly Picks

Still playing this game without a scoreboard.  At least we know when the clock stops.

Thursday
NO @ CHI (-3)
I picked Chicago, but doesn't matter because of the push.

Sunday
TB @ ATL (-3)
this doesn't totally make sense, but the Bucs' D will be angry, everyone will be up because of the backup QB situation and Atlanta is the kind of young team that's playing under pressure they don't expect.  Also, I'd really like Atlanta to lose.

TEN (-3) @ HOU
Baffling line.

WAS (-7) @ CIN
So Washington gets a bye week prior to the Eagles.

SEA @ STL (no line = straight up even)
Crappy and crappier.

GB (-1.5) @ JAX
Puzzling and puzzlinger.

SF @ MIA (-6.5)
Sure.

DET @ IND (-17)
How high would they have to make this line to make me thing about it?  27 points, maybe?

SD (-5.5) @ KC
Lot of weird teams this year.

BUF @ NYJ (-7.5)
Buffalo is cratering but that's too many.

MIN @ ARZ (no line = straight up even)
Desperate vs. clinched.  Although Jackson...

DEN @ CAR (-7.5)
I'm starting to believe in Carolina.  I can't believe it either.

NE (-7) @ OAK
New Englad seems to take care of the crappy teams just fine.

PIT @ BAL (-2.5)
Now THIS is a game I'm looking forward to.  Don't like the rookie QB match-up against that defense, however.

NYG @ DAL (-3)
Another match-up I'm waiting for.  I could make arguments on both sides all day.

Monday
CLE @ PHI (-14)
PHI 38 - CLE 13
