Last Week: 9-5 (broken record)
Season: 66-36
---------------------------------
Arizona at Buffalo - More interesting than the game itself is predicting how many turnovers Bledsoe will create, my guess = 5.
Detroit at Dallas - Dallas getting what it deserves this season for trying to use VINNY as a starting QB.
Cincinnati at Tennessee - I don't like to wish ill on anyone, but lets just hope McNair stays beat up and doesn't contribute in this game !
Indianapolis at Kansas City - Score in this game will resemble Arena League levels, how does 45 to 41 sound?
NY Giants at Minnesota - Upset potential here, but the Vikings cleaned up on defense last week, if it lasts, the giants don't have a chance.
Baltimore at Philadelphia - During a postgame interview, TO introduces his new 'Philly Cheese Steak' Flavor instant popcorn - sure to be a hit !
Green Bay at Washington - Sentimental Victory = formula for success. Favre rescues his season as more and more family members come down with mysterious ailments.
Jacksonville at Houston - Time to start picking Jacksonville every week until they lose 2 in a row.
Carolina at Seattle - I just realized why Seattle is doing so badly this year. I would like to personally apologize to Zany for drafting Hasslebeck and Jackson in one of my fantasy leagues, thus, they are terrible thusfar.
Atlanta at Denver - Denver runs all over Atlanta, much like KC did.
New England at Pittsburgh - Close, but New England wins, as usual.
Oakland at San Diego - Oakland is bad bad bad.
San Francisco at Chicago - SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL ON ESPN, STARING - Dr. Craig Krenzel and his trusty sidekick TOUCHDOWN Timmy Rattay in a battle of ineptitude that you have to see to believe!!!
Monday Night
Miami at NY Jets - Equally awesome monday night game, Jets large.

Another 7 - 7 week for me. There were so many upsets last week.
Overall: 61 - 43 Barrin's got a better record then me now.
Jacksonville @ Houston: Battle of the 4th Quarter Wonders. For some reason, I like Houston at home. Jaguars 20, Texans 24.
Detroit @ Dallas: Dallas is on the schnide. Lions seem to be doing well. Lions 27, Cowboys 20.
Arizona @ Buffalo: Cardinals are looking more impressive then the Bills. Cards 17, Bills 14.
Baltimore @ Philadelphia: Call me nuts, but I have a feeling the Ravens are going to contain the Eagles and score just enough to win. Upset? Maybe. Ravens 20, Eagles 17.
Green Bay @ Washington: The most important game of the year! Redskins find a way to get it done! Packers 20, Redskins 24.
Cincinatti @ Tennessee: No McNair = No win for Titans. Bengals 25, Titans 22.
NJ Giants @ Minnesota: Should be a good game. Giants 20, Vikings 24.
Indianapolis @ Kansas City: 42 - 38 final? Maybe. Colts 42, Chiefs 38.
Carolina @ Seattle: C'mon Hawks... Jesus Christ. Panthers 0, Seahawks 93.
Atlanta @ Denver: Vick and Co looked terrible last week. So did Denver. But they're IN Denver, which means the Broncos have a distinct edge. Falcons 17, Broncos 24.
San Francisco @ Chicago: 49ers have more consistency then the Bears do. Imagine that. 49ers 24, Bears 23.
Miami @ NJ Jets: Who the FUCK put Miami into a Monday Night Football game? Jesus. Miami may not be 0-16, but they'll be 1-15. Dolphins 10, Jets 24.

Pitt played well and the Pats didn't. They had to lose sometime and I figured this was their hardest test of the year. Dillion's injury worries me since he went from probable to out in a few hours. Might also have to use the waterboy in the secondary too. Rams next week will suck if both Poole and Law are riding the pine.

Another great win by KC. Certainly was an impressive game ot watch, with two offensive juggernauts hammering at each other. KC showed they can move it through the air and on the ground, but again, Indy isn't known for great defense. The game had over 1000 yards combined offense. I haven't seen a game like that in years. Fantastic plays on both sides of the ball.
But... KC's defense was lukewarm at best, especially in the secondary. However, the linebackers and D-line are doing much better, so KC stands a better chance against running attacks than strikes from the air.
Priest Holmes is still the man. And Tony Gonazales continues to show why he's the best TE the NFL has ever seen. Dude can block, dude can run, dude can catch. Seems to take at least 2-3 defenders to bring him down once he has the ball. The man is fun to watch.
I'm still holding out hope that KC will end up in the play-offs. As usual, the AFC west is a tough division (with the excpetion of Oakland this year), so the title is still up for grabs.

Correction Mr. President, I DID build this, and please give Lurker a hug, we wouldn't want to damage his self-esteem.

Denver actually has a defense. But those are some big boys on the offensive line of KC and Denver isn't invincible. So we'll see.
Guess I should make my picks this week, not sure why I am bothering seeing as how the NFL has gone Random on me.
Jesus: 5 - 9 last week. God I suck.
Overall: 66 - 52. In danger of dropping below .500.
New Jersey Jets @ Buffalo: Jets are looking good. Buffalo's defense is tough but hasn't been all that amazing this year in terms of big time plays. Curtis Martin is running hog wild! Jets 24, Bills 17.
Washington @ Detroit: Redskins let me down last week. Lions let me down last week. Lions are still a better team then Washington. Redskins 20, Lions 27.
Arizona @ Miami: 0-16 is done, but Miami has still looked inconsistent and terrible. Arizona seems to have lost whatever it had that got it 2 wins. I give up. Cardinals 10, Miami 13.
Philadelphia @ Pittsburgh: If this were in Philly, the Eagles would roll. But this is in Steeler Country, which isn't far from Philly anyway. I am going to enjoy this game, but I am going to say that the undefeateds will be all gone after this week. Eagles 24, Steelers 28.
Kansas City @ Tampa Bay: Chiefs have scored 101 points in the last two games, which means they're overdue to be slaughtered by a good defense. Tampa Bay's got a good defense, and an offense that seems to be rejuvinated under Brian Griese. Dare I say upset? Nah. Chiefs'll pull it off. Chiefs 23, Bucs 20.
Dallas @ Cincinnati: I don't get Bill Parcells. He has several good running backs but would prefer to air the ball out 50 times a game. So far, his results have been mixed. Cincinnati's Carson Palmer is okay, but not getting the job done. Kitna! Kitna! Kitna! Bengals at home. Cowboys 20, Bengals 21.
Oakland @ Carolina: It's not a good year to be a Raider fan. Frustration, bad play, everything else. It just looks terrible for them. Carolina isn't much better, but they still have more heart and guts then the Raiders do. I have a feeling this'll come down to an aerial showdown between two teams whose aerial ability sucks. Raiders 17, Panthers 20.
New Orleans @ San Diego: Jump on the Chargers Bandwagon! This should be a high scoring game! Saints 30, Chargers 35.
Seattle @ San Francisco: The 49ers are no threat to the Seahawks, even if the Hawks haven't looked their best in the last 4 weeks. Seahawks 73, 49ers 0.
Chicago @ New Jersey Giants: Giants are doing well, very well indeed. I honestly didn't have them beating the Vikings last week but it goes to show you that any given Sunday.... but not for the Bears. Bears 10, Giants 24.
Houston @ Denver: What an interesting game. Houston is riding a hell of a streak, and the Broncos have become vulnerable. Jake Plummer is a 4th quarter master, just like John Elway. David Carr is a 4th quarter master too. This game is going to be exciting to the last tick. Texans 27, Broncos 28.
New England @ St. Louis: Oh sure, the Rams get the Pats at home. What fucking luck. Anyway, Rams are tough at home and off a bye week. New England is going to be looking hard at reestablishing dominance after being beaten by the Steelers. I have a feeling this'll be a long day for Marc Bulger as the Patriots blitz the crap out of him. However, New England is NOT THAT GOOD A TEAM... and the Rams may show that. This should be the game of the week, if not the for Pennsylvania Civil War. Patriots 28, Rams 30.
Cleveland @ Baltimore: A very interesting game that will be fought tooth and nail by both sides. The Browns have shown some life on offense, but the Ravens wont have their full fledged force ready to go on Sunday night. The defense will be angry and pissed because of Terrel Owens' antics and Ray Lewis may very well take out his anger on Jeff Garcia. This should be a good game to watch too. Browns 20, Ravens 17.
Minnesota @ Indianapolis: Now this is a Monday Night Game! Vikings looked gawd awful against the Giants last week, and the Colts couldn't get it done in a shootout against the Chiefs! Both Manning and Culepepper have had their egoes bruised and will try to show in this game that they are the kings of the deep ball touchdowns. Should be a damn fun game to watch. Vikings 35, Colts 38.
Bye: Atlanta, Green Bay, Jacksonville, Tennessee.

Last Week: 6-8 (shitty)
Season: 72-42
---------------------------------
Arizona at Miami - I shall boldly go where no man hath gone before
Dallas at Cincinnati - VINNYYYYYYYYY
Kansas City at Tampa Bay - TB bites
N.Y. Jets at Buffalo - J E T S JETS JETS JETS
Oakland at Carolina - Oakland is terrible
Philadelphia at Pittsburgh - HEY EVERYBODY LETS JUMP ON THE PITT / BIG BEN BANDWAGON
Washington at Detroit - yet another boring game
Chicago at N.Y. Giants - Dr. Krenzel has no weapons but he makes it close, seriously tho who am I kidding - this will be a blowout.
New Orleans at San Diego - BREES starting for my fantasy team this week, despite that massive jinx, I think the saints have my back covered here.
Seattle at San Francisco - Let's take a look at some stats from Ken Dorsey's start last sunday night: 16/36 for 122 yards, 1 int, sacked 3 times and 0 TD. May as well just stick 2 RB in and run the option every single down am I correct.
Houston at Denver - Denver is terrible but so is Houston every time I pick them. Also special thanks to Plummer for throwing the game away then getting 499 yards giving me a fantasy win, he knows where the real money is.
New England at St. Louis - X-Factor here is Martz and if he can manage to fuck it up.
Cleveland at Baltimore - Should be a good game, defensively.
Monday Night
Minnesota at Indianapolis - Minnesota pretending they are a playoff team again. I will maybe believe it if they get within 20 points of Indy (either way they still lose).
