NFL Week 10 picks...

Already off to a crappy start losing the Thursday night game, let's get rolling


Buffalo @ New England (-3.5)
Buffalo's lost there last 2 weeks against divisional opponents this week will be no different.

Tennessee Titans (-3) @ Chicago Bears
These 2 teams are very similar, if Kyle Orton plays at QB that's the only advantage I would give to the Bears, every other position goes to the Titans, Titans roll and remain undefeated.

New Orleans @ Atlanta Falcons (-1)
Who would have thought the Falcons this season would be favored in a game vs. the Saints? Going by trends this season you're supposed to pick the NFC South team at home and against them on the road, but I like the Saints to much to stick with that trend. Let's just hope for a high scoring game with big production from Roddy White and Michael Turner.

Seattle Seahawks @ Miami Dolphins (-8)
It sucks knowing what we know now that the Cowboys let Tony Sparano get away, I still have a hard time picking the Dolphins as an 8 point favorite even if Seneca Wallace is starting, 'Hawks.

Green Bay Packers @ Minnesota Vikings (-2.5)
The Packers nearly pulled off the upset of the Titans last week, they're the better football team right now and the most logical pick.

St. Louis Rams @ New York J-E-T-S JETS JETS (-9.5)
I'm not sure if I have picked 2 Jets games right all year, everytime I believe in them they disappoint me, and lately if I've gone against them, they've surprised me. At home vs. the Rams they should handle there business, Jets.

Baltimore Ravens @ Houston Texans (-2)
The Texans have spent the past 3 games building up there confidence playing some bunnies, now it's a real test with Sage Rosenfels starting. I'll take the Ravens in a hard fought game.

Jacksonville Jaguars (-6.5) @ Detroit Lions
What a disappointment the Jaguars have been, this will be Detroit's best chance to win the rest of the season, I'll predict the Lions cover the spread. WAKE UP JAGUARS!

Carolina Panthers (-9.5) @ Oakland Raiders
My gosh the Raiders are a mess, nothing more to say, Panthers.

Indianpolis Colts @ Pittsburgh Steelers (-3.5)
It looks like Big Ben will play, the Steelers looked very good last week finally showing up against the NFC East, Byron Leftwich looked fantastic, I think part of the reason was the 'Skins didn't gameplan for him, nonetheless it was a dominant performance. They'll look to continue that against the Colts today, could be a make or break game for the Colts. And I expect big things from the Colts today.

KC Chiefs @ San Diego Chargers (-14.5)
Neither of these teams are good, it's hard to pick the Chargers with the way they're playing right now but they just had the bye week and playing pretty good at home. Tough game, Chargers

NY Giants @ Philadelphia Eagles (-3)
From a Cowboys perspective, it's best if the Eagles lose, from a fan's perspective I really hate the Giants though (admittedly though they kicked our ass last week) Both QB's will get beat up today, this game could be decided early if a team jumps onto a 2 score lead. This is an unpredictable game that I wouldn't bet on, I'll take the Giants, but I wouldn't mind seeing a 5 INT day by Eli.

Monday Night
San Francisco @ Arizona Cardinals (-9.5)
Last time Monday Night was in the desert Dennis Green exploded in his classic, "They are who we thought they were !" rant, this may happen this game but from the 49ers coach Mike Singeltary (I loved his post game rant following his 1st game as head coach 2 weeks ago) Cardinals BIG!

3 games I'd bet on:
Cardinals over the 49ers on Monday Night
Panthers on the road vs. DA RAIDAAS
Jets at home vs. the Rams

Over/under I'd take: the over in the Giants/Eagles game at 43
