After Luke’s Raiders pick, I admit I am spooked. A vast majority of America, including all other league members, picked the Chargers and for good reason. Yet, logic, stats and supposed motivation seem not to rule the day.
This week:
Pitt over the Bungles. Could be close though. Pitt needs to rebound after Ravens loss. Cincy is still suspect to me.
Kansas City over Broncos. Romeo Crennel did a great job of boxing in running quarterbacks when he was with the Pats. Not sold on the Tebows.
Jags over Colts. The Colts have too much to lose for.
Cowboys over the Bills. Bills may have met the wall this season.
Bucs over Houston. Home game, motivation go to Bucs.
Panthers over the Titans. Newton makes it happen.
Dolphins over Redskins. What ever happened to Shannahan?
Falcons over Saints. Saints all of a sudden look beatable.
Bears over Lions. Impressed with Bears last week. Lions face a correction in the force.
Rams over the Browns. I haven’t lost points betting against the Bears this year.
Eagles over the Cards. This is a must for Phillie to save their season.
Ravens over the Seahawks. I just can’t bring myself to pick the Seahawks.
49ers over the Gints. Giants are weak front runners.
Pats over the Jets. This is a huge game for both teams. Jets defense has settled in and their offense has been improving. Pats defense remains the same, but the offense is scuffling. Pats need to pass to set up the run. Against the Giants, they ran three times and failed to make a first down twice in the first half. That is not them.
Packers over Minnesota. The Pack go undefeated until the Superbowl, where the Pats win on a last second field goal.
