Regular Season Week 9
As you may know I’m in the middle of training to get my
Montessori credentials. This weekend I have training in Raleigh and I leave
tonight. I won’t be able to watch much football this weekend but, I think its
cool that the people who run the training really must have had my best interest
in mind. They scheduled my training
weekend the same weekend the Giants have a BYE!
This past weekend was
probably the best weekend ever when it comes to football. I mean, the Giants
won AND the Cowboys, Redskins, and Eagles lost!!!!! There were some GREAT games
this past weekend and I found myself hugging and dancing in the Ginn’s living
room after more than one game. Man I love football.
Now, because I’m not playing fantasy I figured I would put
up my picks against “The Insiders” on Showtime’s Inside the NFL and this past
week I went 13 for 13! That’s right, I beat Phil Simms and Cris Collinsworth!
The best part of week 9 is the Giants can’t lose! But before
we get to that let’s recap week 8 first.

Panthers (4-3) @ Buccaneers (0-7) 31-13
This was a pretty easy win for the Panthers. I mean, Tampa
Bay made Carolina look stellar. Why can’t the Giants play the Bucs?
Cowboys (4-4) @ Lions (5-3) 30-31
This. Game. Was.
Awesome. Thanks Detroit for not letting me down. Megatron is still a beast and
I’d like to give Matt Stafford a high five. I haven’t given out the binky award
in some time but I think Dez Bryant deserves it this week…. Throwing a fit on
the sideline… come on man!
49ers (6-2) @ Jaguars (0-8) 42-10
I feel bad for the British fans… this game took place in
London again but they only got to see one NFL team…
NY Giants (2-6) @ Eagles (3-5) [1pm FOX]
YESSSSSSSSSSSS! HOW ABOUT 2 WEEKS IN A ROW ELI HASN’T THROWN
AN INTERCEPTION!!!!!! And our defense hasn’t allowed any points! Now our special
teams still need a ton of work and I’d like to see Eli throw a TD. BUT I’ll
take it! A win is so much better when it’s against a division opponent.
Browns (3-5) @ Chiefs (8-0) 17-23
Close, heartbreaking game for Browns fans. I still can’t
believe that the Chiefs are STILL undefeated.
Dolphins (3-4) @ Patriots (6-2) 17-27
No surprise here. Not
gonna lie, didn’t watch this game.
Bills (3-5) @ Saints (6-1) 17-35
I’d like to say that the Saints are really, really, good
this year… but I don’t believe it.
Steelers (2-5) @ Raiders (3-4) 18-21
My mom picked the Raiders to win. She was right I was wrong
in this report. But I took her advice and picked it right when playing the
insiders.
Jets (4-4) @ Bengals (6-2) 9-49
I thought I typed the score incorrectly… nope. Wow.
Falcons (2-5) @ Cardinals (4-4) 13-27
How are the Falcons so bad?
Redskins (2-6) @ Broncos (7-1) 21-45
Peyton had 3 interceptions and the Broncos still beat their
opponents soundly. The Redskins are BAD! YAY!
Packers (5-2) @ Vikings (1-6) 44-31
Even with most of the Packers injured I just knew they would
win.
Seahawks (7-1) @ Rams (3-5) 14-9
Wow, I watched this game and I thought that the Rams were
really going to pull an upset. Too bad, so sad.
WEEK 9
Thursday October 31st
Bengals (6-2) @ Dolphins (3-4) [8:25pm NFLN]
Taking the Bengals.
Sunday November 3rd
Falcons (2-5) @ Panthers (4-3) [1pm FOX]
I’ve got to take the
Panthers at home.
Vikings (1-6) @ Cowboys (4-4) [1pm FOX]
I’ll be rooting for the Vikings, hoping they’ll win but I’m
going to have to pick the Cowboys to win.
Saints (6-1) @ Jets (4-4) [1pm FOX]
I’m picking the Saints for the win, the Jets were
embarrassing last weekend.
Titans (3-4) @ Rams (3-5) [1pm CBS]
Tough call, the Rams almost beat the Seahawks last week… I think I’m going to pick the Titans for the
win.
Chiefs (8-0) @ Bills (3-5) [1pm CBS]
Taking the Chiefs,
sorry Bills fans.
Chargers (4-3) @ Redskins (2-5) [1pm CBS]
I’m pulling for and picking the Chargers
Eagles (3-5) @ Raiders (3-4) [4:05pm FOX]
Going with the Raiders for more than one reason.
Buccaneers (0-7) @ Seahawks (7-1) [4:05pm FOX]
Ha! I’m going with the Seahawks
Ravens (3-4) @ Browns (3-5) [4:25pm CBS]
Upset of the week… I’m picking the Browns
Steelers (2-5) @ Patriots (6-2) [4:25pm CBS]
I was listening to sports radio today and they were talking
about how awful Tom Brady’s been the past few weeks. It was awesome. PS I’m
picking the Patriots to win this one.
Colts (5-2) @ Texans (2-5) [8:30pm NBC]
Picking the Colts.
Monday November 4th
Bears (4-3) @ Packers (5-2) [8:40pm ESPN]
Go Pack Go! I’m picking Green Bay.
If you are a Broncos, Jaguars, Giants, Lions,
Cardinals, or 49ers fan you’re in luck….
Your team won’t lose this week!
BYE: Broncos, Jaguars, Giants, Lions, Cardinals, 49ers
GO GMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for the edit Mom!!!!!!!
