I haven't psoted on here in awhile. I've kept my vow alive so far by continuously writing a page a day. Unfortunately not everything has been tied to my literature goal. Also I need to replace the RAM in my laptop, I'm holding off waiting for some Blitz sale after Thanksgiving. I've also found myself reading a lot more lately.
I think I will just have the rest of the blog today be my Sunday NFL game picks.
Miami vs Green Bay: I like GB here. Aaron Rodgers has shown it was a good decision to choose him over Favre two years ago. Rodgers will continue to lead the Packers to the promise land also since Minnesota has totally blown it not only do the Pack attack win this game they are now 100% my pick for the NFC Norse division. Notables in this game: Packers Defense must stop Ronnie Brown, Dolphins Offense should mix it up more with the Wildcat, it went from 90% of the offense to 10% (and Dolphins easily winning to barely using it and the Dolphins battling). Final score 28-17
San Diego @ St. Louis: This is the make or break game for the Chargers.I'm going to say that the Rams pull out the upset. I look for Bradford to continue to improve and the Rams realistically have a shot at their division. The Chargers special teams woes continue and the Rams take this with a late game Punt return.Final 24-21
Baltimore @ New England: This game could very well be a post season preview. The Ravens a top the AFC Norse has looked impressive. They man handled the Broncos and beat a tough Steelers team. Flacco has really started to play well.But the real question is will Ray Lewis and company be able to stop the lightening fast scoring of Tom Brady. I see this to be a decent scoring shootout. I'll take the Patriots by 4 with the final being 25-21
Cleveland @ Pittsburgh: This is a statement game for the Steelers they have the chance to prove their offense will now be in click with Ben Roethlisberger. Now with the new of the Browns starting Colt McCoy I feel so bad for the rookie QB to have your first NFL start against blitzburg.However I look for Peyton Hillis to end Pittsburgh's defense's 19 game streak of not allowing a 100 yard rusher. This will be a close one and even being a Pittsburgh fan my gut is telling me that Cleveland could squeak out with a victory. But I'll go with the Black N Gold to win by a saftey (I'd say a field goal but Pittsburgh can't make any of those). 23-21
Kansas City vs Houston: I'm gonna go and say Houston wins behind their dynamic offense. Foster runs for a buck fifty against a young Chief defense. However Houston's defense will keep KC in this game to the end. The major question will be can Cassell prove his season replacing Brady wasn't a fluke? Houston wins this 17-15.
Detroit @ NY Giants: Lions here them roar. The Giants did look impressive, but the Lions have been in every game and who knows if the call would have been made right in week 1 just maybe the Lions would be undefeated because maybe they would have played harder in every other game. I see the Giants as an overhyped team like their cousins the Jets. So since I always pick against New York I am taking the Lions in a close low scoring field goal fest 18-12
Atlanta @ Philly: Well my pick here is simple if Vick is healthy and ready to play I will take Philly winning 35-21, however if Kolb starts for Philly or Vick isn't 100% then I take Atlanta to win 28-3
Seattle @ Chicago: Can Chicago protect their Quarterback. I say no and this will result in the Hawks to swoop by the Bears. Final in this will be 17-13
New Orleans @ Tampa: The Saints have been playing like the Aints once again and they have already ruined my prediction of them going 15-1 so now that I am mad at the Saints I am taking the Bucs. Also the Saints are not the same team as they were last year. Buccaneers with an upset in overtime winning by a long field goal. Final 27-24 OT
Jets @ Denver: Well the Broncos are at the bottom of the West. I will sya that just maybe the ghosts of Mile High will come and lift the Broncos to victory or maybe see if Thunder can be like Gus the field goal kicking Mule. Either that or give the horse a a mouth strap and place Thunder in at running back. When you are averaging 16 inches a carry you don't win.Orton has proven he's a good QB when he has protection which he never got in Chicago. I look for Orton to have another big game, but to break my own rule I take the Jets to win by 6. 36-30
The Battle of the Golden Gate Bridge: The wnner of this can claim they are the true owner of a bridge that well needs repaired. Oakland coming of a victory against the over hyped Chargers and actually in the race for the division. I said it at the beginning of my yearly predictions I take the Raiders to win the west at 8-8 or 907. The 49ers still have a chance at their west but I don't like them. I will take Oakland to win behind Gradokowski. Also my new pick in the NFC West is anyone but the 49ers. Oakland wins by 1 28-27 since the 49ers bumble the game tying PAT with no time left.
The battle of two overhyped teams that suck horribly aka Cowboys love Vikings: You know there is a thing called a tie in the NFL regular season and usually I don't pick ties, but these teams are the overhyped of the hyped. They wanted everyone to believe they were good teams. but when the regular season started they weren't ready. I say this should be the game that the Vikings realize they made a mistake with Brett I'm retiring Favre. I think this team is 100% better without Favre. Jackson can actually move in the pocket and since the Vikings can't block I say give the younger faster QB. I say next year the Vikings ought to trade a 2nd round pick for Vick (they should have done it this year. ) Dallas another team that thinks they are good. Could have downed the ball to end the first half in week 1, whatcha do a shuffle pass that is fumbled and returned the other way. Also you were playing well against the Bears even sacking the QB 5 times in the first half and whatcha do the 2nd half you stopped blitzing. So in this game to guarantee neither team gets out of the gutter I am saying it will be a tie unless the Vikings place Jackson in and then I will say Jackson to Moss wins the game. 10-7
Indy@ Washington: Just because I dislike the Colts and even though they left Baltimore before I was born we still hate the Colts around here. So I take Washington to win a shocker with a 64 yard kick by Ganoe as the clock expires. Ganoe definitely has the leg to own the NFL's longest field goal all to himself. Redskins in a shootout 38-35
Tennessee@ Jacksonville: Both teams have been impressive. The Titans have woke up since losing a close one to the Steelers. Vince Young has played great since being benched. He also now knows his spot isn't safe if he's having an off day. Fisher isn't afraid of bringing in the backup Kerry Collins (who btw 2 years ago led the Titans to the playoffs. I haven't got a chance to watch Jacksonville besides week 1 when they played a competetive game against Denver. I say Young leads a late rally to bring the Titans out with a victory 17-14
Well that's Week 6's picks.
