Regular Season Week 14
Sorry I didn’t get this out in time for Thursday Night Football. My bad.
This is my birthday weekend! My actual birthday is Tuesday but I’m hoping for some great football presents this weekend. The best one would be a GIANT win in Dallas.
I just knew we wouldn’t go an entire season without the NFL mentioning the potential return of Brett Favre. Puke. This time Favre said he would “listen” to the Bears. Maybe Favre just wants to ruin the entire NFC North. THANKFULLY it was just talk and the Bears never intended to call on him. Speaking of the NFC North, Suh is getting into a lot of trouble off the field too. He had a car accident and more “stories” (that’s what people call lies down south) this week. I wonder what he’ll do with all his time next week. I just hope he doesn’t have the Big Ben approach to “a good time”.
Week 13 wasn’t as lucky as I had hoped it to be… lets recap.
Philadelphia @ Seattle 14-31
I watched part of this game on my computer (because I don’t have the NFLN) and I couldn’t keep up with Vince Young’s interceptions. I couldn’t tell if it was a replay, or if he had done it AGAIN! Young had 4 interceptions this game. Philly looked horrible, and that’s an understatement. They made Seattle look really good, and that’s hard to do. I’m not sure why I picked Philly to win this game in the first place… It must have been a Thanksgiving hangover.
Tennessee @ Buffalo 23-17
With Chris Johnson looking like the old Chris Johnson and the Bills looking like the Bill’s of ol’ it really isn’t that surprising that the Bills lost this week.
Kansas City @ Chicago 10-3
Da Bears have gone to the Bad News Bears with Cutler out last week, then Orton out this week, and their current QB, Caleb Hanie throwing no TDs and 3 interceptions in the loss to KC at home this weekend. On the other hand, KC is just glad it pulled off a win.
Atlanta @ Houston 10-17
Houston pulled off a win with their 3rd string QB. Really, they are just glad Peyton’s out for the season because it gives them a far better chance to take the AFC South.
Oakland @ Miami 14-34
My crazy pick of the week came true AGAIN! Miami stomped Oakland. For a while there I thought they were going to shut them out completely. If any Panther’s fans were watching the game I bet they were wondering why Matt Moore didn’t play like that for them.
Denver @ Minnesota 35-32
Speaking of the Panthers, can John Fox really get credit for Denver’s success right now? It seems like the fans bullied him into starting Tebow. I mean, Fox had Tebow as his 3rd string QB. I think Fox fell into something remarkable with Tebow, and he should be thanking God for him. We all know that Tebow thanks God practically every moment on the field. NO WONDER THEY ARE WINNING. (1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ)
Indianapolis @ New England 24-31
As I write this in our winless season I have to chuckle a little bit being that the Colts, the winless Colts, almost upset the Patriots. They were down 31-3 in the fourth quarter and put up three touchdowns. Had they recovered the onside kick the Pats could have made history giving the Colts their first win of the season. I know almost doesn’t count, and a loss is a loss, but it wasn’t the blowout everyone imagined… it was actually one of the closer games the Colts have had ALL season. What I’m saying is the Pats aren’t as good as everyone talks them up to be. PS I still hate them.
Cincinnati @ Pittsburgh 7-35
Not one of the Bengals best games… Big Ben, blah blah blah, I hate the Steelers.
Carolina @ Tampa Bay 38-19
I don’t know what was more distracting, Tampa Bay’s inability to play, or their throwback jerseys. Would someone please tell them that a peach-ish color isn’t very manly. Carolina finally got it done. Newton broke another record with the most rushing touchdowns in a season. (He had already broke that rookie record games ago) and he still has a couple of games left! This kid is a beast. I like it when the Panthers win; the air in Charlotte isn’t so… melancholy
New York Jets @ Washington 34-19
I’m on twitter and I follow this guy called peytonshead. If you’re on twitter you should follow him too. The dude’s pretty funny. He summed it up best today when he said “ 2 Redskins suspended for violating the substance abuse policy. It's safe to assume this was recreational use, not performance enhancing.”
Baltimore @ Cleveland 24-10
Ray Rice led this Ravens team to victory but Cleveland did score a TD at home.
Dallas @ Arizona 13-19 OT
YAHOOOOOOO for the Cardinals! Well, you see what happened was, Dallas’ head coach iced his own kicker! The game went into overtime, and Arizona scored a TD. Game over! The end!
Green Bay @ New York Giants 38-35
It’s been said before and I’ll say it again, this game was eerily familiar to the 2007 Giants Pats game when the Pats went undefeated up until the Super Bowl. This game even had the same score. Something tells me we are going to be playing the Packers again. It was a good game. There were some pretty crappy calls by the refs and a few blown plays by our boys, but it was a good game. Tough loss but we’ll get them next time. There will be a next time.
St. Louis @ San Francisco 0-26
The Rams were shutout in San Francisco. Ouch.
Detroit @ New Orleans 17-31
Lions are looking like their old self and the Saints had a field day.
San Diego @ Jacksonville 38-14
So the Chargers finally win one… well they were playing Jacksonville so it wasn’t that difficult… even for the Chargers.
10 out of 16 for week 13 picks
WEEK 14
Cleveland (4-8) @ Pittsburgh (9-3) [Thursday 8:20pm NFLN]
Well I can’t really pick a winner right now because as I type this, the game is in the 4th quarter. I would have picked the Steelers to win anyhow but I hope Cleveland can pull the upset. … Big Ben just threw an interception! I may have to watch the rest of this game now…
New England (9-3) @ Washington (4-8) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
I’m picking New England. I wouldn’t say I’m rooting for them… but I want them to win.
Kansas City (5-7) @ New York Jets (7-5) [Sunday 1pm CS]
I’m picking the Jets but I’ won’t be surprised if KC upsets them at home.
Houston (9-3) @ Cincinnati (7-5) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
I’m taking Houston
Indianapolis (0-12) @ Baltimore (9-3) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
Did you know that when the Colts come to Baltimore they are referred to as the Indianapolis professional football team, never the Colts, and Indy is what is displayed on the scoreboard not Colts. Apparently there are still some hard feelings over the move from Baltimore to Indianapolis. If the Colts had been playing this bad in 1983 I’m pretty sure Baltimore fans would have gladly helped them pack. Oh yeah, I’m picking Baltimore for the win.
Atlanta (7-5) @ Carolina (4-8) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
I’d like to pick Carolina but I’m not going to. I think Atlanta will win. Wait for it! I’ve changed my mind. My crazy pick of the week is Carolina over Atlanta!
Tampa Bay (4-8) @ Jacksonville (3-9) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
It’s the battle of who could care less. I’m taking Tampa Bay for the win.
New Orleans (9-3) @ Tennessee (7-5) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
I’m pretty sure the Saints will win this one
Philadelphia (4-8) @ Miami (4-8) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
Come on Miami! Vick should be returning so welcome him back with a nice sack after sack after sack. I’m picking Miami for the win
Minnesota (2-10) @ Detroit (7-5) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
I’m taking Detroit.
San Francisco (10-2) @ Arizona (5-7) [Sunday 4:05pm FOX]
I’ve got to go with the 49ers
Chicago (7-5) @ Denver (7-5) [Sunday 4:05pm FOX]
TEBOW! TEBOW! TEBOW!!!!! I’m taking the Broncos
Oakland (7-5) @ Green Bay (12-0) [Sunday 4:15pm CBS]
Green Bay…
Buffalo (5-7) @ San Diego (5-7) [Sunday 4:15pm CBS]
I so would like to pick Buffalo for the win but I’ve lost faith in the Bills and no longer Billieve. I’m taking the Bolts for the win.
New York Giants (6-6) @ Dallas (7-5) [Sunday 8:20pm NBC]
GMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So many fond memories of this match up. Remember the time when the Giants christened Dallas’ new stadium with a GIANT win on the road. Good times good times. And remember the time the Giants Defense broke Romo’s collarbone. Oh memories. Looking forward to more great memories this Sunday night. Hey GMEN it’s my birthday Tuesday so the bestest birthday present ever would be a GIANT win over the Cowboys! Thanks in advance!
St. Louis (2-10) @ Seattle (5-7) [MNF 8:30pm ESPN]
I’m taking Seattle.
GO GIANTS AND COLTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
