Last Week 11-3

Overall 49-25

Chicago Bears Vs Atlanta Falcons

Both teams are 3-2 and have running backs that can quickly change the game with one carry and a similar attack on offense. Which is simple don’t turn over the ball and complete third downs. Both the Falcons and Bears don’t ask their quarterbacks to win games but to manage them and allow the sticks to move so that they can do more running and so that their defense can stay fresh. The advantage would go to the Bears because of their defense they currently ranked 8th while the Falcons are 23rd. Run and Pass wise the Bears are ranked 3rd against the run and 23rd against the pass. While the Falcons are 22nd against the pass and 21st against the run. I believe this plays into what the bears normally face they stop the run so teams pass the 40+ times. The falcons will need to have success running the ball or they are certainly in trouble. The Bears will likely keep a balanced offense sense the Falcons seem to be vulnerable on both sides of the ball. However the most important note for them is ball safety and not turning the ball over. 32-17 Bears

Miami Dolphins Vs Houston Texans

The Dolphins sit at 2-2 while the Texans are 0-4 desperate for a win they will come into this game willing to do and try anything to succeed. The Dolphins are familiar with such cases as they only won one game last season and it took more than four weeks to do so. Therefore I don’t think the Dolphins will take this game lightly, they come in with the 7th ranked defense 15th against the pass and 7th against the run. While the Texans are 18th overall 12th against the pass and 26th against the run which could be a problem heading into this week. I believe that the Dolphins has what it takes and will get it done this week against the Texans however the wildcat formation won’t have much success this week though they still will have a 100 yard performance on the ground. 24-14 Dolphins

Baltimore Ravens Vs Indianapolis Colts

The Ravens have the number 1 defense 1st in both the Pass and the Run. While the Colts have struggled on Defense and have been slow on offense. This will be a test of the Colts will this week can they perform up to the caliber they are used to playing on? Or did the Super Bowl win feed the hunger of their team. They are certainly a veteran team and some players are satisfied with winning one championship that’s certainly how they have been playing as if they are just padding the stats to increase their chances for Hall of Fame induction and they definitely have a few players on their way. This game I believe the Colts go in it with something to prove however seeing how they played against the Texans last week and the Jaguars and Vikings earlier in the season I don’t think they will prove it but every time I pick the Ravens they loose and when I don’t they win. So umm 17-9 Colts but you know. Lol Game could go either way ravens all the way 17-9

Detroit Lions Vs Minnesota Vikings

The Lions are 0-4 while the Vikings sit at 2-3 and look to go .500 this week. They face a Lions team that has struggled on both sides of the football, though when going against the Lions no team can believe it’s a guaranteed victory due to the fact the Lions and Pass the ball well if they have time. I don’t expect them to have time this week, I expect heavy pressure in John Kitna’s face the Lions have given up the most sacks every season the last two seasons and have giving up the most so far this year. So the philosophy is rather simple blitz them, in which the Vikings don’t have to go outside of their defensive play calling on this one. The Lions also struggle against the run in which I expected Adrian Peterson to have a big game last week he didn’t however I certainly don’t see him having two slow weeks in a row no matter how good the teams run defense is in which in this case the Lions are 30th giving up 180 yards a game respectively on average. They did have a decent week last week against the bears however they game up over 300 yards passing. In which the Vikings had a slow run week but had a productive day through the air. It has now become stop Adrian Peterson if you can and if you can will just take the passing yards and TD’s sense you want to stick 8 and 9 guys in the box. Since the departure of Randy Moss and even then the Vikings are nearly undefeated when having a receiver go over 100 yards and score a touchdown they did that last week against the Saints and this week won’t be any different I expect them to hit one of their wide outs deep early and this will open the run back up for the Vikings. 42-0 Vikings

Oakland Raiders Vs New Orleans Saints

The Saints should have another 300+ yard performance through the air and a little more success running the ball the ball as well. The saints showed the ability to play well stopping the run so the formula of success will rely solely on the offense not turning the ball over if they can do this they will have no problem winning the ball game. 28-14 Saints
Cincinnati Bengals Vs New York Jets- Brett Farve had a beautiful game before the bye week and coming off the bye week he should be still in sink after receiving rest and studying a little harder on getting the offense rolling. While the Bengals are hungry for a win they won’t get it this week as their defense is still vulnerable against the pass and the run and with Farve likely to go deep early the run will open up keeping their offense balanced. 28-20 Jets

Carolina Panthers Vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers

The Panthers have the better overall offense while the Buccaneers have a better defense in my opinion because good offense always beats good defense I believe that the Panthers will get it done as the Panthers defense is pretty decent. Steve Smith should have a big game against the Buccaneers this week as well. 28-16 Panthers

St Louis Rams Vs Washington Redskins

This is a mismatch game in the Redskins favor now anything can happen come Sunday however the Redskins have shown the ability to be teams that are strong on offense and defense seeing that the Rams lack skill and playmakers on both sides of the ball so I won’t go in to much on this pick 35-10 Redskins.

Jacksonville Jaguars Vs Denver Broncos

The Jaguars have struggled putting up points this year and while they have a better defense than the Broncos I think that the Broncos will get back on track with their offense this week and the Jaguars won’t be able to keep up with them. Cutler should be over 300 yards this week 28-10 Broncos

Dallas Cowboys Vs Arizona Cardinals

This is going to be a high scoring game something like the jets vs. Cardinals game. Though the Cowboys can be on either side of this if their defense doesn’t get their act together and if the Cowboys offense doesn’t play at top level. The Cardinals are strong on offense if not stronger than the Cowboys but have major problems on defense 48-35 Cowboys.

Philadelphia Vs San Francisco 49ers

The eagles have played very tough teams the last few weeks and while the 49ers are a decent team not as tough as the other games the Eagles have faced despite the Rams. With or without Brian Westbrook the Eagles will use their passing attack to lead them throughout this game and should get it done putting them back over .500 this week. 31-14 Eagles

Green Bay Packers Vs Seattle Seahawks

The question mostly rely on whether Rodgers can snap out of this loosing funk and whether the Seahawks can snap out of their horrible defensive play. They come off a week of being shut out and their team will face yet another strong opponent well at least stronger than them. 28-7 Packers

New England Patriots Vs San Diego Chargers

This should be a very exciting game as it always is. The Patriots will have to get Randy Moss involved early and often to keep balance in their offense. If they can they should have no problem running the football. Mean while the Chargers will try all they can do to rack up points on the run and through the air. Based on the fact that the Dolphins beat the Chargers and the Patriots I can only look at how it was done which was by the Dolphins running over both teams. Which means to me both the Chargers and Patriots will have a problem covering the run. Should be an exciting game however the Chargers have the 32nd ranked defense against the pass could be bigger problems covering the run with Randy Moss sure to catch a few deep to help open the run even wider. 28-17 Patriots

New York Giants Vs Cleveland Browns

The giants are getting it done on both sides of the ball so this will be another successful week if they continue to control the clock and not turn over the ball in which I don’t believe the Browns will force them not to do so therefore I believe the Giants will win yet another game and remain undefeated 30-12 Giants.
