Regular Season Week 15
Week 14 served up to be a pretty great football weekend AND birthday weekend. The Giants gave me the best early birthday present ever when they beat the Cowboys on the road AND took the head of the NFC East. THANKS BOYS!
Sorry again for not getting this out in time for Thursday night football, but I am getting it out before the Saturday night game!
Two more head coaches (Miami’s Tony Sparano and Kansas City’s Todd Haley) lost their jobs this week and there will probably be more to come. Personally I’d like to see Dungy back in Indi but I know that’s just a pipedream.
James Harrison’s one game suspension appeal was denied this week. I’m not really surprised and I don’t really care. Though I do find it interesting that last year he threatened to quit but this year he has decided appealing was a better idea. Tebow is still in the spotlight with another awesome comeback in overtime against the Bears. Man I love that guy. Well let’s recap week 14.
Cleveland @ Pittsburgh 3-14
So Pittsburgh won and it wasn’t pretty. But I’ve gotta say I never think its pretty when they win.
New England @ Washington 34-27
Even though I HATE New England I’m glad they won because it helps the Giants. And I’m not gonna lie Tom Brady’s interception was pretty spectacular, but the side line fight was childish.
Kansas City @ New York Jets 10-37
This game was the last straw that cost Todd Haley his job. But KC sure did make the Jets look good.
Houston @ Cincinnati 20-19
I really didn’t think this game would be that close but I’m glad that I picked Houston for the win.
Indianapolis @ Baltimore 10-24
Now, you know I go out almost every Sunday so that I can watch all the games someplace where they have the Sunday Ticket. But, did you know they don’t even show the Colts games down here anymore. I have to ask them to put it on a tv… and it’s embarrassing, as are the Colts.
Atlanta @ Carolina 31-23
Seriously Carolina? You HAD that game. Did you forget that there are 4 quarters? Unbelievable. (but not really)
Tampa Bay @ Jacksonville 14-41
I’m not gonna lie I don’t remember much about this game but I do remember that there was a tiny little bartender all decked out in her Jones-Drew jersey with pig-tails to boot. Her voice was so high pitched and annoying that it pierced through the crowded bar. She was ecstatic over the win, and every other thing she talked about.
New Orleans @ Tennessee 22-17
This was a pretty close game, but I wasn’t surprised that the Titans didn’t pull off the win. Sorry Abby.
Philadelphia @ Miami 26-10
I felt like this was the game that never ended. All of the other early games were well over and I looked up at this game and there was still 8 minutes left in the game. Yet nothing seemed to be happening. So, Vick came back which means that Vince Young didn’t thrown a gazillion interceptions.
Minnesota @ Detroit 28-34
Minnesota made a comeback… a little too late. But the good news is Detroit remembered what it felt like to win again.
San Francisco @ Arizona 19-21
Way to pull the rug out from under the 49ers Arizona. I did NOT see that coming.
Chicago @ Denver 10-13 OT
TEBOW! TEBOW! TEBOW!!!!! I LOVE watching that kid play. His drive, his presence on the field, his Faith, its all just so amazing and captivating. So exciting! ALL THEY DO IS WIN WIN WIN NO MATTER WHAT!
Oakland @ Green Bay 16-46
This was just ugly… for Oakland. Ouch. Green Bay is a Green Monster, not to be confused with The Green Monster at Fenway Park. … Anyway…
Buffalo @ San Diego 10-37
All I can say is sorry Bills fans. Its not fair that a team can be soooo good and then soooo bad all in one season. Maybe next year Bills. (Isn’t that what we say every year?)
New York Giants @ Dallas 37-34
HOOOOOOOORRRRAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hey GMEN, you look awesome at the top of the NFC East! Thanks for the fantastic early birthday present. I knew you wouldn’t let me down! Now, after a very long, and fun birthday weekend I couldn’t keep my eyes open for the full game so I made sure I set the DVR before I went to bed, and I am soooo glad I did. I woke up early Monday morning, checked the final score and turned on Sports Center to watch the highlights. The highlights were spectacular as was the end of the game. I was also really glad I knew the outcome of the game while watching it Monday night after work because my blood pressure would have skyrocketed.
Did you know you can’t spell Elite, Reliable, or Believe with out ELI?!?!!!!!!! (Thanks Gmen SuperFan and Matthew Johnston) Did you see the look on Jerry Jones face after the blocked kick by J-P-P? Pure awesomeness. It’s nice to know that we are perfect in that stadium. Boys it was a much needed win but man the defense has GOT TO STEP IT UP. Love you boys! Can’t wait to see you win again this weekend.
St. Louis @ Seattle 13-30
Seattle won and skittles were thrown about. I can’t make this stuff up.
12 out of 16 correct picks.
WEEK 15
Jacksonville (4-9) @ Atlanta (8-5) [TNF 8:20pm NFLN]
Well I would have picked Atlanta to win this game but I wouldn’t have thought it was the slaughter that actually was. (14-41) Remember, I mentioned the annoying bartender earlier in this article? Well, I was going out Thursday night in hopes to watch the game and as I was walking to my truck I heard this piercing sound. I turned around to see the pixie bartender walking out of one of the apartments in her Jones-Drew getup. As it turns out she lives in the same building I do. Crazy.
Dallas (7-6) @ Tampa Bay (4-7) [Saturday 8:20pm NFLN]
I mean I am going to be a big Bucs fan Saturday night and I hope they win. But I’m going to pick Dallas for the win and hope that I am very wrong. PS I still hate the Cowboys
Cincinnati (7-6) @ St. Louis (2-11) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
This should be an easy win for Cincinnati.
Miami (4-9) @ Buffalo (5-8) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
I’d like to pick Buffalo but Miami could surprise us with an interim coach leading their team.
Tennessee (7-6) @ Indianapolis (0-13) [Sunday 1pm CBS]
Should be an easy win for the Titans… if there is any silver lining in this whole Colts mess it’s that Peyton has started throwing the ball again as part of his recovery.
I miss Peyton. I miss him on the field. And I miss his commercials, especially the Christmas one. You know the one where he gives Jeff Saturday a wrapped football… He’s so funny!
Washington (4-9) @ New York Giants (7-6) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
THIS IS THE GAME THAT DETERMINES WHETHER OR NOT I GET TO SHAVE MY FRIEND’S HEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LETS GO GMEN. Obviously I’m picking the Giants for the win.
New Orleans (10-3) @ Minnesota (2-11) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
I’m going with New Orleans. Did you see Drew Brees on Sesame Street? He’s so badass.
Green Bay (13-0) @ Kansas City (5-8) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
Pretty sure Green Bay is going to win this one. Pretty sure.
Carolina (4-9) @ Houston (10-3) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
Look at it this way Carolina you’ve already won twice as many this year than last year… baby steps. I’m going with Houston for the win.
Seattle (6-7) @ Chicago (7-6) [Sunday 1pm FOX]
I’m picking Chicago.
Detroit (8-5) @ Oakland (7-6) [Sunday 4:05pm FOX]
Sorry I left this game out of my original post, I just didn’t want Detroit fans to worry about losing again this week. I’ll take the Lions for the win just to make those Detroit fans happy.
New York Jets (8-5) @ Philadelphia (5-8) [Sunday 4:15pm CBS]
I hope the Jets can pull this one off. I’m picking the J-E-T-S JETS! JETS! JETS!!! PS I still hate the Eagles.
Cleveland (4-9) @ Arizona (6-7) [Sunday 4:15pm CBS]
I’ll take Arizona at home.
New England (10-3) @ Denver (8-5) [Sunday 4:15pm CBS]
My crazy pick of the week is Tebow and the Broncos over New England! TEBOW, TEBOW, TEBOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PS I still hate New England.
Baltimore (10-3) @ San Diego (6-7) [Sunday 8:20pm NBC]
I’m taking Baltimore.
Pittsburgh (10-3) @ San Francisco (10-3) [MNF 8:30pm ESPN]
I’m taking the 49ers, may they beat their opponent soundly.
GO GIANTS AND COLTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks Mom!
