Why should I listen to you? You weren't the sixth overall pick in the draft like I was..

This week's quote is in honor of a player not playing this year: Pac-Man Jones. He reportedly said this to Keith Bulluck, the best player on the Titans defense. This is a funny week of picks, and I don't have too much time to look into them now, but here we go. Season Picks: 29-19, last week 10-6. Spread Picks: 4-9-3 last week, 17-28-3, good thing I am not gambling and no one uses my picks to gamble. On to the games:

Sunday 1:00 PM
Raiders @ Dolphins
The Dolphins are one of the teams I know nothing about this year. I know they are 0-3 but the Raiders are nothing special. Saw part of their game last week, and despite beating the Browns, they never looked that great. I like the Raiders defense to win this game for them.
Raiders, Raiders +4

Texans @ Falcons
There are 9 home underdog games this week which is weird. The Texans are a solid team and kept it respectable and tight last week. The Falcons lost basically because of DeAngelo Hall, I wanted a quote from him from this week but I couldn't find anything crazy enough. I like the Texans, but I am actually going with the Falcons, just a gut feeling on this one.
Falcons, Falcons +3

Ravens @ Browns
I watched both these teams last week, and neither one looked good. The Ravens got picked apart by Kurt Warner (uh-oh) and the Browns got beaten by the Raiders. It's a rivalry game so you know it's gonna be heated and I see both these teams trying to run the ball over the other one. I think the Ravens win under those circumstances.
Ravens, Ravens -4 1/2

Bears @ Lions
YAY! It's Griese time! I like it how Bears fans think that bringing in Griese is so much better than Grossman. Face it, the Bears quarterbacks suck. Have a good year. The lions got embarressed last week, and playing on their home turf, I think they'll be coming back for revenge and I like them against a beat up bears defense.
Lions, Lions +3

Packers @ Vikings
Brett Favre are you kidding me? My starting fantasy QB #1 is balling out of control. I don't know what to say except watch out for my team. We're riding Brett Favre (not in a gay way, kinda) until his arm falls off. The Vikings are bad, really bad. I still really like Tavaris Jackson, but they are pretty pretty pretty awful. I like the Packers, but it is very hard picking them to be 4-0, at least it will be real close.
Packers, Packers -3

Rams @ Cowboys
I didn't realize how bad the Rams were, really I didn't. I've picked them 2 out of 3 weeks and feel stupid for doing it. Now they are playing without Steven Jackson (good thing I didn't have the #1, 2, or potentially even 3 pick in the draft), and Marc Bulger with 3 broken ribs. That's enough right there to back up picking the Cowboys, who are the best team in the NFC, but that's not saying much.
Cowboys, Cowboys -13 1/2

Jets @ Bills
I don't understand the Bills. They come off last year ending the season well but are 0-3 and have scored 24 points (last in the NFL). They are gonna start Trent Edwards (Stanford YAY RJ DUHHH) which is never a good thing. Chad Pennington, my fantasy QB #2 has also been playing money this week and I say it keeps going this week.
Jets, Jets -3 1/2

Bucs @ Panthers
I think I may have picked every Bucs game wrong so far this year (I admit it, I am not very good at this) and I haven't gotten to watch any of their games so I really don't know what they have. But I did get to see the Panthers last week and wasn't too impressed, I mean they got shredded by Joey Harrington. I like the Bucs in this one, in a low-scoring affair. I actually will like them even more if Delhomme comes back instead of Carr.
Bucs, Bucs +3

Seahawks @ Niners
Now from what I can tell, and this is without watching any of their games because none have been televised when I have been watching, the Niners are not looking so good. Especially Alex Smith. Losing Norv Turner is proving to be a big blow for this team and now with no Manny Lawson or VD for some time, they have lost a few playmakers. The Seahawks are winning, but haven't been that impressive yet. I know the Niners beat the Seahawks both times last year, but I don't see it happening Sunday, sorry.
Seahawks, Seahawks -2 1/2

Steelers @ Cards
This is my upset of the week. The Steelers are sitting at 3-0 and the Cardinals are going through a somewhat mini QB controversy. I think Matt Leinart busts out a big fuck you game to everyone and the Cards upset the Steelers. Hopefully Big Ben and Troy Polamalu will be killed in the proceedings as well, except that will make them bigger heros than Superman and Batman.
Cardinals, Cardinals +6 1/2

Chiefs @ Chargers
Two teams that have played poorly thus far. The Chiefs have the second lowest point total, 26, and are off to a whopping 0-3 start (I predicted they would be really bad when I did their division. Note: I really shouldn't be bragging about this because it really isn't that surprising but I don't have a lot going for my picks right now), and the Norv Turner era has begun in S.D. My question is where does this rank in the stupid coaching moves rankings. I say its almost as good as Chelsea firing Jose Mourinho; its close but not quite as dumb- as demonstrated by Chelsea's 0-0 draw at home to the American team Fulham. Anyways the Chargers will win this week but they haven't gotten to the tough part of their schedule yet, that's when this will really get fun.
Chargers, Chargers -12

Broncos @ Colts
I watched in shock as the Broncos stunk up the joint last week against the Jags. That was the ugliest and worst Mike Shanahan coached game I had seen in a while. The Colts are 3-0, but it hasn't quite been the cruise that the record indicates. Their last two games have been tight, and one could make the argument that if either of those teams were better, they would have won those games. I don't see the Broncos sucking back to back weeks, so here's my second upset of the week.
Broncos, Broncos +10 (spread is too big anyways)

Eagles @ Giants
For the first time in my life, I will be able to witness a Giants game in person at the home grounds of the team. I'm not gonna lie, I might cry. This could be a turning point in my life; if this goes as well as I hope it does, I can see myself trying to go to at least 3-4 Giants games a year over the next four year. The Eagles are coming off a big win, but everything for them depends on Brian Westbrook. I expect he'll play, but he's the type of guy who gets hampered by his injuries. The Giants are coming off a big win too, and while every Giants fan is expecting the typical let down by them this week, I am going with my heart instead of my brain. Note: I will be so unsurprised if they just absolutely suck this week. They definately have that in them.
Giants, Giants +2 1/2 I have picked every game of theirs wrong this year thus far

Pats @ Bengals
I'll tell you one thing I hate: living in NE and having to hear about a Pats undefeated season roughly 10 times a day. That being said:
Pats, Pats -7, this could be a 20 point spread and I'd say they'd cover this week.

Peace
