We got some hard looking games to pick this week. Should make for a great weekend of football. I'm predicting it will be one of those weeks where 10-5 will be the best we see. And we may see more 7-8, 8-7's then we normally do.
Well, The NFL..NO FUN LEAGUE says they will continue to run Thursday night football, and they do not care what the fans think. They have yet to realize that if they actually gave the fans something that they wanted to see, then the ratings might improve.....
No learning curve in Gooddell's office it would seem
In other news, the Raiders will get a new stadium in Oakland. It will be partially funded by residuals from drug sales solicited by local gangs as well as donations from ad sales on the next season of GANGLAND In fact, the new stadium will offer naming rights to whoever donates the most money...can you imagine Brent Muskrat narrating a game:
"You're Looking live from Third Generation Crip Stadium in Oakland where the Raiders are hosting their division rivals the San Diego Chargers...."
In the NFL, nothing would surprise me anymore......
Except getting all my picks RIGHT for once
SO here we go
Cowboys @ VIKINGS I keep saying that the Cowboys are past due to screw up, and sooner or later, they will, but I keep picking against them and they keep winning......
LIONS @ Saints deja vu deja vu deja vu........wasn't it just last December that we went to New Orleans, met up with my redneck brother and saw the Saints lose to the Lions on Monday Night Football? Yes it was
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +
================================================== === A SUPER BOWL REMATCH
Rams @ PATRIOTS Billicheat and company won't need spies to win this rematch. Just showing up will beat the Rams........
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++
BRONCOS @ Jaguars Don't worry, all is well in Denver. "We good We good...we ain't goin to no playoffs but we still good" Too bad the game is in Jacksonville
49ers @ BEARS The CRUMMY GAME OF THE WEEK I'll take the home team, both are really really Bad.
Texans @ PACKERS The Packers should be very afraid, because this is the kind of game they have been losing.
Chiefs @ FALCONS Not the Super Bowl Prematch, but a good game on the slate.
MY FINZ @ Ravens I am going way out on a stick leg to pick this, being that My FInz have had problems all along with the Ravens....but Nevermore.
EAGLES @ Bengals I get scared picking this many visiting wins, but in this case, the Eagles may fly a little higher in a close one.
Bill's Buffaloes @ RAIDERS Raiders are tied with the Evil Patriots for the Number one seed.
BUCCANEERS @ Chargers As the Season drags on, the Buccaneers are coming alive while the Chargers are on life support.
Giants @ STEELERS watch this be the one home team that loses REDSKINS @ Cardinals The Pesky Red Birds are in heap big trouble
Panthers @ SEAHAWKS At Home, The Seahawks move one inch closer to the playoffs while the Panthers officially kiss (dab) their chances goodbye

__________________________________________________ _________________ Another SUPER BOWL REMATCH COLTS @ Jets This is the most re matched Super Bowl. In 1970 the AFL and NFL Merged, and the Colts and Jets were placed in the same division meaning twice a year matchups. When the divisions were realigned, the Colts were moved out but the sheer number of meetings makes this the most rematched Super Bowl. Joe Namath cannot guarantee any help for the Jets this time.

SO here we go
Cowboys @ VIKINGS I keep saying that the Cowboys are past due to screw up, and sooner or later, they will, but I keep picking against them and they keep winning......
tell you what, you keep picking against the cowboys, and perhaps they will win the super bowl this year, and we can thank you for it by buying the beer!
Cowboys @ Vikings-I've picked against the Cowboys every week except for one, and they have singlehandedly destroyed my picking record. Although they'll probably win again, I just can't pick them. It feels morally wrong. Hopefully Purple Reign shows up and beats them on Thursday Night Football. Dallas is bound to lose some time.
Lions @ Saints-As good as the Lions have been this season, I hardly ever pick them away from Ford Field. I like Brees to orchestrate a game-winning drive similar to what Stafford has been doing all season.
Rams @ Patriots-Another week brings another weak opponent for the Pats, as if they need any help.
Broncos @ Jaguars-Denver resides in the AFC West and needs to keep winning. This should be no problem against the pathetic Jags.
49ers @ Bears-This is the toilet bowl of the week. My dumpster-fire 49ers make it 11 straight losses, but it'll be close since DA Bears are terrible too.
Texans @ Packers-Now that the Packers have won again I can safely resume picking them against a Texans team that doesn't impress me.
Chiefs @ Falcons-It's time for Atlanta to have their annual meltdown, and the Chiefs seem to do what it takes to win football games. This should be a good battle.
Dolphins @ Ravens-Miami's 6-game winning streak comes to a screeching halt against a Ravens team still jonesing for the AFC North crown.
Eagles @ Bengals-There will be no playoffs for the Bengals this year. I gotta believe this will be Marvin Lewis's last season. With Bernard and A.J. Green likely out, the Bengals don't have enough weapons on offense to win.
Bills @ Raiders-I need to stop picking against the Raiders. They're a pretty good football team.
Buccaneers @ Chargers-I like the Chargers to complete the AFC West sweep for Week 13 and for Philip Rivers to smoke a Winston.
Giants @ Steelers-I've been impressed with the Giants this season, BUT it's important to note that they've had a pretty weak schedule lately with the Browns, Bengals, and Bears the last 3 weeks. During their 6-game winning streak, their margin of victory has only been just above 6 points. The Steelers, while not great, are a step above who the Giants have been playing, and I think Roethlisberger will outduel Eli at home. Steelers have a better chance of taking the AFC North than the Giants do of catching the Cowboys.
Redskins @ Cardinals-I can't pick the Cardinals right now. They've looked out of sync all season even with the great David Johnson. Carson Palmer has taken a beating. Only Andrew Luck has gotten sacked more. Kirk Cousins, on the other hand, gets decent protection, so I think the Skins will have more offensive firepower than Arizona.
Panthers @ Seahawks-I seriously thought the Panthers were going to win out. After losing to the Raiders, I'm no longer a believer. It will be close, but the Seahawks are undefeated at home this year and will find a way to win.
Colts @ Jets-I'm assuming Andrew Luck will be back for this. Whether that's true or not, I'm not picking the Jets this season.
