NFL week 5 Picks

Week 5 is about to start, time to make my weekly last minute picks.

For the record, I think most of the picks this week are pretty clear. I went through and did these very quickly.

Cleveland √ at Buffalo (See If It Sticks ®)

Yuck and Yuck. I spent the longest time on this game, only because I don’t know which team here is worse. We’ll go for the Browns.

Dallas √ at Kansas City

Off the loss, Dallas should crush KC.

Minnesota √ at St. Louis

No brainer here.

Oakland at NY Giants √

No brainer #2

Tampa Bay at Philadelphia √

No brainer #3. I think…

Pittsburgh √ at Detroit

No brainer #4

Washington at Carolina √

Can Washington do it? I don’t think so. Carolina has more talent, let’s see if they show up.

Cincinnati √ at Baltimore

Cinci is cruising. This will be a good close game, but I think the Bengals will win.

Atlanta at San Francisco √

Another one of the close match-ups. The 49′s are on a streak. I don’t think this week is the one they’ll fall on. They will fall, just not this week.

Jacksonville √ at Seattle

Matt Hasselbeck should be back in play this week. His team is still going to lose.

Houston at Arizona √

This one is a toughie. I always want the Texans to win. Both teams are struggling, but Arizona is just off the bye. I think they’ll win.

New England √ at Denver

Game of the season? Don’t expect fireworks like that Jets and Patriots game with Mangini a couple of years ago. Mangini was/is and ass. Josh McDaniels on the other hand, played by Belichick’s rules. Belichick doesn’t want to be beaten by anyone, but I guarantee that he is proud of McDaniels. That said, I expect the Pats to pull out another close one.

Indianapolis √ at Tennessee

The Colts cannot be stopped by the struggling Titans.

NY Jets √ at Miami

Miami destroyed the Bills last week. It’s easy to beat up on teams smaller than you. Shame on you Miami. Pick on someone your own size. I think they bit off more than they can chew with the Jets. The Jets won’t be embarrassed two weeks in a row.

NFL week 4 Results

Detroit at Chicago √

Cincinnati √ at Cleveland

Seattle at Indianapolis √

NY Giants √ at Kansas City

Baltimore at New England √

Tampa Bay at Washington √

This one was close.

Tennessee √ at Jacksonville

Tennessee carried me through my fantasy league last year. Not this year.

Oakland at Houston √ (See If It Sticks®)

NY Jets at New Orleans √

Buffalo at Miami √

St. Louis at San Francisco √

Dallas √ at Denver

I knew this one would be close, but I though the Cowboys would prevail.

San Diego at Pittsburgh √

The Steelers are in a free fall. Chargers are starting to look coherent. Steelers will win.

Green Bay at Minnesota √

Shootout. The run game and defense of the Vikings will win this one. Look for Farve to play hero and make some mistakes. Just sayin’.

Results

So, magically, my record this week was 12-2. Quite a jump. Only Denver and Jacksonville blemished my perfect record.

NFL week 4 Predictions

Detroit at Chicago √

The win streak stops here for Detroit.

Cincinnati √ at Cleveland

Cleveland stinks. Cinci, is started to look not bad. Don’t expect that to change this week.

Seattle at Indianapolis √

The Colts will get the better of this one. Don’t expect a blowout though.

NY Giants √ at Kansas City

Do expect a blowout.

Baltimore at New England √

The Pats are going to keep getting better as the season goes on. They’ll win this grudge match.

Tampa Bay at Washington √

The Redskins have to win this one to save their coach.

Tennessee √ at Jacksonville

The Titans are going to have a tough time with this one, but I think they’ll pull it out.

Oakland at Houston √ (See If It Sticks®)

Toss up here. I pick the Texans every week here and usually am wrong. I think Kevin Walter is going to have a good week. Shame I dropped him from both my leagues.

NY Jets at New Orleans √

Game of the week here. I think the Jets are going to win their division. But, I also thing the Saints are Super Bowl contenders. Saints win this one. It’ll be close though.

Buffalo at Miami √

Another close game. The Wildcat will prevail.

St. Louis at San Francisco √

49er’s still look good.

Dallas √ at Denver

Close match. Hopefully both teams run rather than throw. Dallas will win in a close one.

San Diego at Pittsburgh √

The Steelers are in a free fall. Chargers are starting to look coherent. Steelers will win.

Green Bay at Minnesota √

Shootout. The run game and defense of the Vikings will win this one. Look for Farve to play hero and make some mistakes. Just sayin’.
