Week 6 NFL Picks

Last week: 7 – 7

Season total: 41 – 35

Sports Meister: 41 – 31 ????

Sports Guy: 49 – 27

Bengals (-5) over Texans

This has upset written all over it but I’ll finally show some faith in Cincinnati and pick them at home here. Note of interest, Chad Ochocinco partnered with Motorola to buy a few thousand tickets to ensure the game would be sold out and therefore not blacked out on local television. Say what you want about guys like TO and Ocho Cinco, but they’re never in trouble off the field and entertain us on it.

Packers (-14) over Lions

Green Bay at home has a prime chance to show the NFL what they can really do. Plus Megatron is out possibly for Detroit, severely limiting their ability to move the chains down the field.

Vikings (-3) over Ravens

Great game. I’ll go with the undefeated team at home until I’m proven wrong.

Saints (-3) over Giants

Likely vote for game of the year right here. The Saints have had two whole weeks to prepare and are at home. I’ll go with Payton, Brees, and Co.

Steelers (-14.5) over Browns

If Cleveland can only put up 6 points against Buffalo, then I feel bad for any Browns fan this week.

Panthers (-3) over Yucks

Tampa is the worst team in the league. They don’t get any consideration from me until I see a pulse.

Redskins (-6) over Chiefs

Jim Zorn needs a hug. And a win.

Jaguars (-10) over Rams

St. Louis is so terrible. When is the last time in the NFL there were this many atrocious teams?

Cardinals (+3) over Seahawks

We’ll see if Arizona can keep their stride and if Seattle was for real with their trouncing of Jacksonville last week.

Eagles (-15) over Raiders

“Is John Madden available? No? Can we move to Los Angeles? No? Damnit. Can we move to the UFL??” — Al Davis

Patriots (-9.5) over Titans

Tennessee is probably going to be 0-6. Who in the hell saw that coming? Chris Johnson is due to break loose this week.

Bills (-10) over Jets

Why not right?

Falcons (-3) over Bears

I’m picking this solely for Balloon Boy.

Broncos (+3) over Chargers

I believe in Josh McD.
