Thursday’s Game: Chicago Bears @ Washington Redskins:

Wow! The Bears had me fooled (again) , just when you think you see glimpse of the 2006 NFC Champions and the defensive beasts that they were for a few years, they allow 14 points in the 4th and lose. Gotta go with Washington on this. Bears defense tires down just enough to let the other guy win.

Sunday’s Games:

Miami Dolphins @ Buffalo Bills:

Well I made a costly error last week (again) by picking the lowly ‘Fins to finally break their streak and win a game this season. A dismantling by the blah Jets forces me to not make the mistake again. Then there is Buffalo who was going against a team who was playing with a heavy heart and sneaked out a W in the end. Bills win this contest.

St. Louis Rams @ Cincinnati Bengals:

The Rams have been impressive lately, the Bengals…well lets say they have not been the team with all their offensive weapons that we thought they would be. Rams will not win in Cincinnati unfortunately. Believe me I hope they do, any time an NFC team beats an AFC team I am happy.

Dallas Cowboys @ Detroit Lions:

The way the Lions are playing right now they will not win the predicted 10 games until next season. I made the error of picking the Pack against the Boys. Romo will make the Lions look like they should be playing in Europe.

Oakland Raiders @ Green Bay Packers:

Oakland picked up an impressive win against the Broncos this week. Regardless of who starts for the Pack there is no way…let me say it again. No way that the Raiders win this game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Houston Texans:

The question for this game is….will Garcia be under center? If so, Tampa rolls to a win, if not they lose.

Carolina Panthers @ Jacksonville Jaguars:

Give it up to Carolina, an impressive win for their injury depleted team against the 49ers last week. Unfortunately their win streak ends at 1. Jags roll to a win.

New York Giants @ Philadelphia Eagles:

Now that the QB controversy has gone away and McNabb should be back under center I predict a close game with the lowly Eagles coming up just short of winning another one....3 close games, 3 losses.

San Diego Chargers @ Tennessee Titans:

This is one of the harder games to pick this week. Both coming off wins and both played well enough to be applauded. LT played very well and I believe that his momentum will continue as he runs all over the Titans.

Minnesota Vikings @ San Francisco 49ers:

Now o the flip side this is one of the easier games to pick. 49ers just plain stink, I wonder where all their fans are now? Vikings are on a roll, threw up 42 against the Lions and now they will face the 49ers. Watch AP add to his lead as he looks to capture the NFL Rushing Trophy, Offensive ROY. WOW.

Arizona Cardinals @ Seattle Seahawks:

An impressive win by Arizona against the Browns, they are 3-1 against the AFC this year, unfortunately they cannot boast a similar record against what many call the weak NFC. Seattle is riding high coming off their fourth straight win, the last two coming down to final seconds. Both of these teams are my teams however my heart does remain in Seattle. Go Hawks!

Kansas City Chiefs @ Denver Broncos:

What is going on with the Broncos? Defeated by Oakland! Oh well things are going to get better for you. 1. You are playing the Chiefs. 2. It is December and your at home.

Pittsburgh Steelers @ New England Patriots:

The Steelers have been winning, just not very impressively, the same can be said for the Patriots last two as well. Many experts are picking the Steelers to win this one in an upset and while that would be awesome. Please take no offense TRUE Patriot fans, I just cant stand the guy who is a New England fan, but lives in Portland Oregon and has never been east of Idaho. I still have to go against the Steelers and pick the Pats to win. I hate guarentees.

Cleveland Browns @ New York Jets:

As the Browns got on the plane and headed home a couple of things went through their minds. “What happened?” and “Well no-one expected us to get this far”. I believe this to be the beginning of the end for Cleveland. D.A. is going to start feeling the pressure as the playoffs loom. My upset pick of the week is NYJ walking off the field winners of two in a row.

Indianapolis Colts @ Baltimore Ravens:

I just don’t know about the Ravens. I mean this is a team that many considered to be a threat in the AFC. Got to go with the Colts here.

Monday’s Game:

New Orleans Saints @ Atlanta Falcons:

The Saints are seeing their playoff hopes disappear. Once NFC favorites and a popular pick to win it all this year they sit at 5-7, two games away from .500. This will help them rebuild a little confidence as they take on the Falcons. I guess beating up on a division rival who has nothing to look forward to except that their vacations begin in 4 weeks.
