NFL WEEK 16 PREVIEW

ABSOLUTELY HUGE games this week in the NFL. With the top seed and home field throught on the line in the NFC and AFC. Plus the wildcards in both conferences still haven't been decided with a boatload of teams still in the hunt. Only doing the important games this week.

Last Week-8-6

Overall- 90-46

Baltimore at Dallas- Both teams clinging to wildcard spots at this moment but they have very tenuous leads. The Ravens D was unbelievable until that last drive by Big Ben and the Steelers and probably feel they got robbed and will come out pissed off. The Cowboys are coming off a big win vs the Giants and are closing their stadium. Romo is hurting and I'm sure he'll get even more beat up in this one facing the blitz of the Ravens so that is something to watch. Marion Barber will not be 100 percent so they can't rely on him. Being a Jets fan I'll be voting for the Boys and I think they'll pull it off in a close one. Cowboys 23-16

New Orleans at Detroit- Not important but 0-16! 0-16! Saints in a laugher.

Pittsburgh at Tennessee- The Steelers have run the gauntlet. They have only had breaks in the schedule when they had to play the Browns and Bengals and thats only because they're in their divison. The Steelers D is one of the best I've ever seen and Big Ben makes the plays to help his team win. The Titans don't really scare me at all and I don't think they are even that great of a team no matter what their record is. I mean their QB is Kerry Collins. Steelers 20-16

Miami at K.C.- Here's an upset for ya. The Chiefs have lost 7 games this year by 4 points or less. Seven. They are coming off a horrible loss when they were leading 21-10 with about 2 or 3 minutes remaining at home against San Diego. They will be angry. Keep in mind the Dolphins have won games vs Seattle 21-19, vs Oakland 17-15 vs St. Louis 16-12 and vs S.F. 14-9. Not exactly dominating. They will also be playing in the cold for the first time all year. Thigpen can make some plays. He'll make enough. Chiefs 16-13

Arizona at New England- Semi upset. The Cards have to have some pride in their somewhere right? They have clinched and all but they really don't want to finish 8-8 and make the playoffs do they? They will be 3 games worse than some teams that didn't get in. Cards 24-21

San Diego at Tampa Bay- Chargers stay alive another week. Chargers 28-23

New York Jets at Seattle- 1-3 on the West Coast!! Seattle is too hurt. Jets 31-20

Buffalo at Denver- Come on Buffalo give us a playoff game in Week 17. If the Chargers win and Broncos lose we will have what is essentially a playoff game in S.D. vs Denver for the AFC West Title. Bills 21-20

Philly at Washington- I really really hope 2 of Dallas, Atlanta, or Philly get in. No boring Bucs or Bears please. Eagles 26-13

Atlanta at Minnesota- Can Matt Ryan win another tough road game? Yes he can. Falcons 24-17

Carolina at New York Giants- I still believe in the Giants. Giants 20-17 P.S. It might be snowing.

Green Bay at Chicago- Chicago will stay alive for another week. Bears

NFL WEEK 15 PREVIEW

Great week of football with some absolutely HUGE games on the schedule. The playoff race will look a little clearer on Monday morning. Some teams will be essentailly eliminated while others will take a step closer to the playoffs.

Tampa Bay at Atlanta- one of those HUGE games. Atlanta needs this one more than Tampa does and it would be diffucult for them to get in if they lose. Tampa got run down by DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart of the Panthers on MNF and will now have to deal with Michael Turner of ATL. I think you will see a lot of Turner and small doses of Matt Ryan who struggled against Tampa when they first played. Falcons 24-21

Washington at Cincy- Washington will win but they are done. Redskins 17-10

Detroit at Indy- No shot for Lions. They are goin 0-16. Colts 37-6

San Diego at K.C.- Hey dont count the Chargers out QUITE yet. The Broncos have the Panthers and Bills next, two games that are not gimmes and then face the Chargers on the last day of the season. If the Broncos lose those two and the Chargers win their next two vs K.C. and at Tampa that game will be for the divison. Not sayin it will happen but it isn't impossible. Chargers 28-17

Seattle at St. Louis- UGHHHHHH. Seahawks win it.

San Fransisco at Miami- Miami doesn't dominate any games, almost all their wins were decided by one possession. They have defeated crappy teams lately with scores like 16-12 and 17-15. While the Niners are one of the hottest teams in the NFL. Shaun Hill has been playing great and Mike Singeltary has got his team playing hard. I think the Niners will win and ensure Singeltary will be back for next year. Niners 20-17

Buffalo at Jets- Jets win out and they win the AFC East and get the Number 3 seed because the Broncos aren't going to go 3-0 with how inconsistent they are. It's as simple as that. The Jets have games vs Bills, at Seahawks, and vs Dolphins, those aren't exactly an imtimidating slate of games. The Bills have no offense whatsoever, especially with JP Losman at QB, where he will be Sunday afternoon. Favre has already stated he expects the Jets will be playing in January and this pessimistic Jet fan thinks they will too. Jets 27-13

Tennessee at Houston- The Texans have an explosive offense and are a pretty good team but the Titans are just too physical a team and should run all over the Texans. It will be a close one though. Titans 24-21

Green Bay at Jacksonville- Wow at the beginning of the year who would have thought this game would mean absolutely nothing. Packers win it.

Minnesota at Arizona- Pretty large game for seeding in the NFC playoffs, although the Vikings dont quite have their divison wrapped up yet. I think the Vikes will eventually find a way to get in. Their QB situation is currently up in the air though as Gus Frerrote is injured and Tarvaris Jackson is at QB. That's not a good thing for them as they'll have to be able to score points to beat the Cards. Cards 28-20

Denver at Carolina- Carolina is just playing too well right now and the Broncos are down to their 7th RB. Panthers 24-23

Pittsburgh at Baltimore- Monster game here. Ravens win AFC South is tied. Steelers win they clinch the division. Should be a low scoring smash mouth game. Inexperience on Joe Flacco's part with be the difference. Steelers 16-13

New England at Oakland- UPSET! Matt Cassell has got to be crushed about the death of his father and playing football just a few days after should be extremely diffucult. The Raiders D isn't horrible and I think they'll force enough TO's by Cassel to pull it off. Raiders 17-13

Giants at Dallas- Game means more for Dallas and with Jacobs out they'll win it even with the stupidness of T.O. in the back of their minds. Dallas 26-21

Cleveland at Philly- Philly's hot.

NFL WEEK 14 PREVIEW

Last Week-8-5
Overall-73-35

A shitty slate of games this week but most of them have a team in it thats fighting for a playoff spot.

Jaguars at Chicago- Da Bears in a not so close won. Bears

Minnesota at Detroit- Lions are goin 0-16. Vikes

Houston at Green Bay- Packs D has sucked but thier offense has enough to beat Hou. Packers

Cleveland at Titans- Ken Dorsey= Titans blowout. Titans

Atlanta at New Orleans- Saints are pretty much done. Falcons

Philadelphia at Giants- Not picking against the Giants. G-Men

K.C. at Denver- Beat the Jets should beat KC- Broncos

Miami at Buffalo- I got Buffalo staying alive in Toronto even if its JP Losman at QB. Bills

Jets at S.F.- Favre should have a big day. Jets

New England at Seattle- No shot for the Hawks- Pats

St. Louis at Arizona- Zona clinches. Cards

Dallas at Pittsburgh- Huge game. Supposed to be 26 and snowing at Heinz Field tomorow. Cowboys need a win cuz the Giants are comin to town next week and are in a dog fight for one of the two wildcard spots with whoever doesn't win the NFC South. The Steelers are fighting for playoff positioning with the Jets right on their tails. Marion Barber is out for this one which is huge considering the snowy conditions. But the Boys wouldn't have been able to run on the Steelers D anyway. Look for Romo to throw it 50 some times to victory. I know its not ideal in the snow but look what Cutler did in the rainy Meadowlands last week. Cowboys in an upset

Washington at Baltimore- I really like Joe Flacco's arm. Especially on the deep ball. All of a sudden the Ravens have a really good offense. Along with Flacco's arm they have a three headed rushing attack that is very productive. Their D is awesome as always as well. Not very impressed with Skins either. Ravens win it

Tampa Bay at Carolina- This is a game that qualifies to be on MNF. Not two 4-7 teams playing for nothing. Whoever wins this game gets the NFC South title. Its as simple as that. The loser will have to scratch and claw with the Falcons and Cowboys for a wildcard spot. I'm not sold on the Bucs and just don't think they have enough offense and I like Carolina's offense a whole lot better. Panthers win.

NFL WEEK 13 PREVIEW

San Francisco at Buffalo- Buffalos got an easy schedule down the stretch and they'll need to win most of them to get into the playoffs. Bills 27-13

Baltimore at Cincy- Ravens creepin up on the Steelers. Ravens 23-10

Indy at Cleveland- Indy's playing its best ball right now, wouldn't want to face them in the first round. That's why the Jets need to get the second seed and a first round bye. Colts 34-17

Carolina at Green Bay- Carolina has really been playing horrible lately and Delhomme has been awful as well. Green Bay is giving up tons of points the last couple games but with Carolina not scoring at all its a good matchup for them. Packers 28-20

Miami at St. Louis- The Rams are a terrible team. Dolphins 24-10

New Orleans at Tampa Bay- Saints need a win and will get Reggie Bush back. Saints 26-23

New York Giants at Washington- Can't pick against the G-Men. Giants 27-17

Atlanta at San Diego- S.D. staves off the inevitable for another week. Chargers 34-27

Pittsburgh at New England- Cassel gets beat up and shows why hes been a backup his whole life. Big Ben comes out with his first big game in a while. Steelers 24-20

Denver at Jets- Should be a shootout and lots of lots of passes. With the only weakness being pass d for the Jets Cutler should have a field day and with Champ Bailey probably out Favre will take advantage. Jets 38-27

K.C. at Oakland- Who cares. Chiefs win.

Chicago at Minnesota- Look for a lot of AD in this one. Winner will take sole position of first place. The winner will be......... Vikings 24-21

Jacksonville at Houston- What a stinker for MNF. Texans win in an upset I guess.

NFL WEEK 12 PREVIEW

Last Week- 11-3

Overall- 57- 25

Tampa Bay at Detroit- I really really dislike the Bucs. I don't really fancy Jeff Garcia and Jon Gruden and Co. They better not make the playoffs because they are a sure 1 and out and to play a boring non competitive playoff game. A win and Panther loss would put the Bucs tied for first place. The Lions and Titans are looking at 11-0 vs 0-11 matchup on Turkey day but I say the Lions don't hold up their end of the deal and Daunte Cullpeper leads the Lions to a big upset. Lions 20-17

Houston at Cleveland- The Browns are still breathing in the AFC Playoff hunt but just barely. Brady Quinn didn't have great numbers in the MNF win at Buffalo but made some big time throws and I like the way he played. He will be playing with a broken finger in this one though. The Browns defense is absolutely horrific. The only reason they don't give up 40 a game is having Shaun Rogers at D Tackle. Their pass D sucks and cannot tackle for shit. I mean every play there are a minimum of two broken tackles on the Browns D. Sage Rosenfals is a turnover maching though so he might make the Browns D look adequate. I'll still go with the Texans and their high powered offense with a big dose of Slaton and some big time catches by Andre Johnson. Texans 30-24

San Fransisco at Dallas- Shaun Hill has done a nice job as a starter and if Mike Martz had the balls to throw on the last play of MNF a couple weeks ago he might be 2-0 as a starter and have the Niners ! still in the NFC West race. Romo was OK on SNF vs the Redskins nothing spectacular but good enough to win. I think Dallas will play their best game of the season and really whip the Niners. Cowboys 34-17

New York Jets at Tennessee- The Jets are looking to make a statement to the rest of the world. Right now they are a good team that no one thinks can really make it out of the AFC. With a win the country will believe they can contend for the title. Farve will need to avoid turnovers. He may have to throw about 40 passes in this one because I dont know how well the Jets will be able to run it on Haynesworth and the rest of the Titan D. This is a pretty good matchup for the Jets though because they have a great run D and that's basically what the Titans need to do to suceed. I think Farve and the Jets have a ton of confidence going into this game and will play loose while the Titans will start to feel the pressure of being undefeated and play tight.

Jets 23-20

Buffalo at Kansas City- K.C. has played very well the last FOUR weeks but haven't won any of those games. How long can they play well but get nothing to show for it? Tyler Thigpen has emerged as their QB of the future and has some weapons in Bowe and Gonzalez along with Larry Johnson to run the ball when hes not getting in trouble. The Bills are coming off a horrible loss and need a win to seriously be considered a contender for a playoff spot. I think they're pretty devestated by their MNF loss and will come out lacking emotion. Chiefs 27-20 in a upset.

Chicago at St. Louis- Bears just got anal raped by the Packers and the Rams continually to get crushed every week so this could be an ugly game. Bears need a win. Bears 24-13

New England at Miami- I hope beyond hope the Dolphins win this game. It could kill the Pats season. Even though I'm a Jet fan I find myself rooting for the Dolphins every week. I don't know what it is, Chad Pennigton maybe or just the fact they were 1-15 last year and are now contending for a playoff spot. Besides how great would it be if the Jets face the Dolphins in the first round of the playoffs at the Meadowlands. Pennington and Parcells back in Jersey and back to back games for the two teams since they face in Week 17. Not real confident in this pick just really want the Fins to win. Dolphins 24-21

Minnesota at Jacksonville- I think the Jags season is pretty much over and I think they can feel it too. AD runs all over the Jags to a victory. Vikes 20-13

Philadelphia at Baltimore- You think Ray Lewis and Bart Scott are gonna be all over McNabb for not knowing there are ties? I do. Just imagine the stuff they'll be yelling at him across the line all game. Ravens 17-14

Oakland at Denver- Could be a huge game for playoff seeding next week Jets vs Broncos nationally televised too with the game moved back to 4:15 Broncos 34-16

Carolina at Atlanta- Huge game here a loss for the Falcons WILL end their season. 3 games back and hoping for a wildcard spot in the NFC is pretty impossible with the beasts of the east lurking. Can Matt Ryan step up in his biggest career start? The Panthers have played terrible games the last two weeks vs the two worst teams in the league. So............... Falcons 27-23

New York Giants at Arizona- I like Zona in this one. Jacobs and Buress aren't at 100 percent. Warner will throw the ball all day against the weakest part of the Giants their pass d.

Cardinals 30-27

Washington at Seattle- Skins need a win they'll get it in a tough game. Hasselback is back so its not gonna be easy vs the Seahawks. They're 2-8 but thats just because of injuries if they had their A team out their they'd be contending. Skins 21-17

Indianapolis at San Diego- Chargers are done. Peyton and Co. are rolling right now. Colts 28-20

Green Bay at New Orleans- Gonna be a high scoring passing kinda game. It'll be fun. Saints are on the respirator while the Pack are in a 3 way tie for first. Not sure who will win this game so I'll go with the better QB. Saints 34-31

Should be a fun week of football. Lot a great games and playoff implications everywhere.

NFL WEEK 10 PREVIEW

Last Week 12-2
Overall 39-17

New Orleans at Atlanta- Matt Ryan is good but Drew Brees is better. The Falcons really haven't beaten any GREAT teams this year so I like the Saints on the road in this one. Saints-27-17

Tennessee at Chicago- Da Bears should be without Kyle Orton in this one and that's actually a big loss. Rex Grossman kinda sucks and the Titans should beat the shit out of him and force a couple turnovers. Titans-20-13

Jacksonville at Detroit- The Jags season is on the line in this one. If they lose they will be done. And if they lose they deserve it, because the Lions really really suck. They will have either Cullpepper or a rookie as a starter in this one. Jaguars 24-10

Seattle at Miami- I like Miami a lot. I think they have a pretty good offense with Pennington managing games well and a good backfield duo in Ricky Williams and Ronny Brown. Their front 7 is pretty good as well with Joey Porter having a monster season. Seattle has no one left stading and their season is prety much over. Dolphins 26-16

Green Bay at Minnesota- I like Aaron Rodgers a lot. He's had a much better season then Farve thus far and has the Pack in a good spot to win their divison. Gus Frerotte isn't a QB on a divison winning team and that's what he will have to be for the Vikes to make the playoffs. AD is overdue for a huge game and this might be it but I still like GB. Packers 23-20

Buffalo at New England- Huge game here in the AFC East race. Both teams stand at 5-3 and are tied with the NY Jets!!!!!!! for first place. Bills got manhandled by the Jets last week but the Pats didn't look to good vs the Colts either. I think New England is too banged up and doesn't have enough offense to win this one. Buffalo 16-13

St. Louis at NY Jets- With a win and New England loss the Jets will technically have first place for itself. That's amazing considering how poorly they played the previous 3-4 weeks. It's funny what one huge road win can do for you. The Jets have basically been winning in spite of Farve lately but he is really really due for a huge game. This might be it and even if it isn't the Jets should still win because Stephen Jackson is out. Jets 31-17

Baltimore at Houston- Joe Flacco has been great lately and has shown a good arm for the long ball. The D has been outstanding as usual but the Texans have one of the best offenses in the league. The Ravens running game will be the difference in this one. Ray Rice, McGahee, and McClain will run all over the Texans to a victory. Ravens 24-21

Carolina at Oakland- Not much to say here Carolina is on a way to a first round bye in the playoffs and Oakland could be the worst team in the league. Panthers 34-13

Indianapolis at Pittsburgh- Great game here. Big Ben is questionable but I doubt he misses this game. The Ravens are just a game behind Pitt and they have a semi easy game vs the Texans. Without Ben I like Indy with him I like Pitt. Steelers 27-23

Kansas City at San Diego- All I gotta say is the Chargers better crush K.C. Chargers 38-10

NY Giants at Philadelphia- Here's an upset for ya. Philly will win this game. Eli hasn't been great lately, Plax hasn't done anything and McNabb is talking about how he thinks the Eagles are the best in the divison. He better back it up. Eagles 28-24

San Francisco at Arizona- Terrible MNF game they could have done better than this over at ESPN. How about Indy and Pitt? Tenn and Chicago? G.B. Minn? Buffalo N.E.? You get the point. Only thing worth watching is if Mike Singeltary kills one of his players with his bare hands then pulls his pants down and takes a dump on his chest. Cardinals 34-20
