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

NFL WEEK 9 PREVIEW

Last Week- 10-4
Overall- 27-15

New York Jets at Buffalo- Farve usually comes up big in big games and this is the definition of a big game. The Jets are a game back of the first place Bills so a win will put them in first place. A loss could be devestating to their AFC East title hopes though. Farve has been terrible since he broke out with 6 TD's vs the Cardinals in Week 5 so he is OVERdue. David Harris will miss this one for the Jets with a pulled groin and thats a big loss because he always puts up double digit tackle numbers every game and is sort of the QB of the defense. The Bills are pretty middle of the pack in both passing and rushing defense so look for a balanced attack by the Jets offense. I like this matchup for the Jets because the Bills like to run the ball but ever since the Jets got Kris Jenkins they've been very stingy against the run. So I've got Jets 24-20

Detroit at Chicago- Detroit sucks and if you look at their schedule they don't play any easy teams the rest of the season. In fact I predict they throw up a goose egg for the season. That's right ZERO wins. Chicago 34-10

Jacksonville at Cincinnati- Bengals suck and Jax desperately need a win. Jags 31-13

Baltimore at Cleveland- I have yet to get a Cleveland game right all year and just dont think a 49 percent passer will fare well vs the Ravens D. Ravens 16-10

Green Bay at Tennessee- Titans aren't going to go undefeated but have been damned impressive so far. Especially considering that Kerry Collins is their QB. I mean Collins couldn't even keep a starting job with the Raiders and now he can QB an undefeated team? Doesn't make sense. Not a good matchup for the Pack seeing how they have one of the worst run defenses in the league while the Titans have the number 1 rushing attack. Titans 24-17

Arizona at St. Louis- Wow give Jim Haslett around of applause. He turned the Rams around in 5 seconds. Since he became head man the Rams have beaten the 6-2 Redskins, the Dallas Cowboys, and lost by a TD to the Pats in New England. With a win they will be a game behind in the NFC West. But, sadly, I don't believe in the Rams and believe in Kurt Warner, who's putting up MVP numbers and has the best WR duo in the league. Cards 31-27

Houston at Minnesota- Interesting game. Two teams looking to be contenders but probably aren't on par with the other contenders. The Texans have the FOURTH best offense in the league. Andre Johnson has been the best wideout in the league so far. He's put up 131, 178, 141, and 143 yards the last 4 weeks. WOW. Schaub has played well. Mario Williams is sacking QBs. The Texans have won 3 in a row. Better make it 4. Texans 28-20

Tampa Bay at Kansas City- Even though the Jets made the Chiefs look like a top 10 team and made Tyler Thigpen look like Joe Montana the Chiefs suck. They are BAD. Really Really bad. Bucs 24-6

Miami at Denver- Here's an upset for you. Pennington is putting up a hell of a season and it looks like the Fins have gotten the better QB. If the Jets had Pennington they'd be 6-1 right now. If the Fins had Farve they'd be 0-7 right now. Denver sucks against the pass and are without Champ Bailey for this one. Joey Porter's got 10.5 sacks and is talking shit just like the old days. A lot to like if your a Fins fan. Dolphins quadruple their win total from last year. Dolphins 30-24

Atlanta at Oakland- Even though the Jets made the Raiders look like a top 10 team the Raiders suck. Matt Ryan is 100 times better than JaMarcus Russell too. Just like to add that.
Falcons 20-10

Dallas at New York Giants- Brad Johnson will get killed in this game. Mark my words. I'm thinking 6 or 7 sacks. Johnson is 40 and immobile whike Kiwaunuka and Tuck are in their 20s and fast as hell. Dallas just needs to get to their bye already. Everyone's wondering whats wrong with the Cowboys but its really simple. Brad Johnson is their QB right now, their top 4 or so defensive backs are out. They'll lose to the G-Men and get to their bye at 5-4 but I refuse to believe they'll miss the playoffs. Once they get healthy they'll run off a 6-1 or 5-2 run and make the playoffs at 11-5 or 10-6. Romo and Felix Jones two of their biggest weapons on offense will most likely be back after the bye and the D-backs should too. Once Romo gets back he'll have T.O, Roy Williams, and Witten to throw to. He'll have Marion Barber and Jones to hand off to. Come on thats scary. They'll make the playoffs. Giants 24-17

Philadelphia at Seattle- Seattle still has a shot. Especially if Hasselback ever gets back. The only reason theyre 2-5 is that they've been unbelievably unhealthy. Frye and Wallace have been their QB the last 4 weeks. In fact at one point Wallace was their number 2 WR. If they could somehow find a way to win this game they will be right in the hunt. But they won't.
Eagles 26-13

New England at Indianapolis- Boy has this game turned into a shit one. No Brady and a crappy Peyton and crappy Colts equals a pretty damn ordinary game. This has got to be the game Peyton goes back to his 400 yard 5 TD ways right? Not quite but they'll find a way to win.
Colts 24-20

Pittsburgh at Washington- Jason Campbell still hasn't thrown a INT. I say that streak will end Monday Night. Clinton Porits has been amazing and may be the MVP of the league right now. I'll say he wont be amazing Monday night. The Steelers are steaming over their loss to the Giants. The backup snapper cost them the game. They hadn't given up anything but FG's until they had to punt from their own end zone and then all hell broke loose. Unless the Redskins can sack the shit out of Big Ben the Steelers will win a low scoring game. Steelers 17-13
