Atlanta @ New OrleansThe Saints are struggling to put point ms on the board eventhough they recently beat the Cowboys. Colston is out and that's gonnaake things tough. Brees gonna need game of his life tonight. The Falcons are undefeated and they are looking good. The defense should feast on this Saints team and the offense should put together some pretty good drives to get this win.

Running behind this week but trying to get these picks in. Let's go. Baltimore @ Pittsburgh The Steelers bring out their rusty dusty backup in Michael Vick after Big Ben's injury. This will be a test against a wounded Ravens team so we'll have to see how well Vick plays. I'm rooting for you Vick. The Ravens need a win, nothing more nothing less. Last week they were

Washington @ New York Giants The Giants come in 0-2 after giving up two W's in the 4th quarter of their last two games. Eli has something to prove, even though he hasn't thrown a pick yet this year. Giants fans, keep praying about this. Not sure that the Giants are going to have enough talent to beat a surprising (redacted) team with OBJ and Ben Vereen being the top targets

Denver @ Kansas City The Broncos come into KC with the media (and everyone else) wondering if Manning is done and a great defense. The Broncos escaped with a win last week against Baltimore, more because of their defense than anything they were able to do on the offensive side of the ball. Rumors swirled around Manning's arm strength and whether the noodle is already gone week 2

Pittsburgh @ New England Welp, I guess Tom Brady (25 of 32, 281 yds, 4 TDs) wanted to prove to all of us that it’s not the amount of air in the balls, but what you do with the balls that count. The Patriots blasted the Steelers and what makes it worse if that they seem to do it with ease. Both of their tight ends (Gronk 5 rec, 94 yds, 3 TDs; Scott Chandler 1 rec, 1 yd, 1 TD)

Green Bay @ Chicago The Chicago Bears begin the season with a new coach, a new GM, and hopefully a new outlook on what professional football should look like in Chicago. The offense looks somewhat similar to last years with the caveat that there are a lot of injuries with their starting wideouts (Kevin White, Alshon Jeffery, Eddie Royal, and Marques Wilson ). The biggest question is

Welp, I got the itch to start writing again and this seems like a great time. I will probably have to play with the format a little to make sure that I am providing good content, but I’m sure you’ll enjoy. Ok, now we’re done with that,…let’s get back to NFL football. Welcome 2015-16 NFL Season, you have been sorely missed. Pittsburgh @ New England – We’ve had to

2013-14 NFL Week 11 Picks

2013-11-14T19:16:00.001-06:00

Ok, the final stretch and we're going to do it with some style. Games start soon so I have to get my Thursday pick in now. Indianapolis @ Tenessee - These Colts sold me out last week so I need for them to right the ship. I felt this team is one of those that runs and passes well and they remind me of those good NFC East teams from years ago. The Titans are led by Ryan Fitzpatrick and we'll get

2013-14 NFL Week 10 Picks

2013-11-07T19:24:00.001-06:00

Getting the first game pick in quickly. Washington @ Minnesota - Look for RGIII to have a good game and the Redskins to win a tough one. Winner - Redskins Seattle @ Atlanta - The Seahawks comes across the country and they have been starting slow lately. The Falcons have just sucked and I really have no words for them. If both teams change their ways at least for this one game,...

2013-14 NFL Week 9 Picks

2013-10-31T18:22:00.001-05:00

On a plane, trying to make it happen let's see what we got this week. Cincinnati @ Miami - We get arguably the best defense in the league right now and a Dolphins team that seems to be taking multiple steps backwards. Home team should have some juice, but not enough for a win. Winner - Bengals. Kansas City @ Buffalo - Chiefs go into Buffalo and stay undefeated. Winner -

2013-14 NFL Week 8 Picks

2013-10-27T11:26:00.003-05:00

Tough week to get these picks out and I missed the first game of the week, although I would have picked the Panthers anyway. Carolina @ Tampa Bay - The worst team in the NFL plays the Panthers,...what do you think? How many days left in this Schiano regime again? Winner - Panthers. Dallas @ Detroit - This ought to be a good game and I think that Suh gets him some Tony Romo Ribs in

2013-10-17T18:57:00.001-05:00

Quick turnaround again this week. Seattle @ Arizona - Things have been quiet this week from the normally boisterous Seahawks, but I still expect them to win a good game this week. R. Wilson needs to throw the ball this week. Winner - SeahawksTampa Bay @ Atlanta - I am pulling against my Bucs, but I blame Schiano for this. The Falcons should bounce back in this game they have to show

2013-10-14T09:44:00.000-05:00

Well, we always like to keep a count of how we did each week, but time hasn't been permitting me that opportunity. After going back and looking at everything, maybe it was best that I didn't look at the numbers of W's and L's with my picks. If you followed them and bet any money, you're probably in the unemployment line by now. Week 1: 8-8 Not bad for starting out. Lots

2013-10-10T18:41:00.001-05:00

New York Giants @ Chicago - Bears can't lose this game to an 0-5 team. That is just not acceptable. Winner - Bears. Cincinnati @ Buffalo - The Bengals were supposed to be an up and rising team since beating the Packers a few weeks ago, but they've looked terrible since. This should be a good win for them. Winner - Bengals. Detroit @ Cleveland - I would normally go with Detroit but

2013-10-03T19:01:00.001-05:00

Quick turn around this week. Lets see what we got. Buffalo @ Cleveland - The Browns have made all of us look silly by winning their last two since trading Richardson. Can they get 3 in a row? The Browns have been playing some good tough defense and I expect much of the same. Winner - Browns New Orleans @ Chicago - After last weeks debacle in Detroit, I'm hoping that

2013-09-26T17:47:00.001-05:00

Getting ready for Week 4 and trying to get these picks in. Let's see what happens. San Francisco @ St. Louis - This is simple, we need a pulse from these 49ers. They have to show up and play, forget that, win this game. They are 0-3 and they are struggling. They've been hit with injuries, but this is a divisional game and they are going to need this W. I'm

2013-14 NFL Week 3 Picks

2013-09-19T17:02:00.001-05:00

Here we go for Week 3. Better week last week, but still looking for perfection. Kansas City @ Philadelphia - We knew that the NFL would schedule this game at some point, and they put it on a Thursday night with nothing else to distract you from it. The Eagles need a performance from their defense if they are going to win this game. The offense should do well as long as Vick

Bad week last week and I'm still a little pissed so I haven't even done my wrap up for last week yet. It'll be short, but it's coming up. Let's turn it around this week. I'm going to jump in since I have to get Thursday's pick up. Leh go,...... New York Jets @ New England - The Jets ride in after their first win of the season and everyone can kind of exhale now.
