2013 NFL Season: Weekly Picks

[DarthFed]

Week 9 Picks: Darth, looks like we agree for the first time this season.

Bengals @ Dolphins - Cinci
Falcons @ Panthers - Caro
Vikings @ Cowboys - The Boys
Saints @ Jets - Saints
Titans @ Rams - Titans
Chiefs @ Bills - Bills. I agree Chiefs undefeatedness ends here.
Chargers @ Redskins - Chargers
Eagles @ Raiders - Raiders
Bucs @ Seahawks - Hawks
Ravens @ Browns - Ravens
Steelers @ Patriots - Pats
Colts @ Texans - Colts
Bears @ Packers - The Pack

Same picks, it was bound to happen at some point. For the first time all year, good luck with your picks :lolz:

Looking over the games again there are a bunch of tough ones; the one tonight, Chiefs @ Bills, Ravens @ Browns, and even San Diego @ Washington (if RG3 is in). Makes it surprising we agree on all of them...

Miami will be w/o one of their OT's and I just think Cinci will overcome them probably in a close game. Well I wanted to pick the Chiefs but they've been walking a tightrope the last few games and I think they will find the Bills are up to the task at home. I was leaning toward the Skins at home, but as we've noted all season, the defense isn't that good and RG's health is questionable again. SD is coming off a bye and I think they'll play better. As much as I would have liked to pick the Browns at home, the Ravens are coming off a bye and a close loss to the Pack so they'll be motivated.

Redskins D is far worse than "isn't that good" but San Diego is so flakey that it is hard to pick them to win a game they should win. Baltimore is coming off close losses to GB and Pitt. They will be desperate because Cincy is starting to run away with the division and there is only one wild card up for grabs (KC or Denver is definitely the #1 wild card).

Yessum. :lolz: I guess I was being subtle, but you're right "isn't that good" doesn't describe the whole picture.

Oh my. Cinci's pint-sized RB is putting on a clinic.

 

[Didi]

Man what a TNF nail-biter in Miami. The Dolphins blew a 17-3 lead but at least sent the game into overtime with a 44y FG in the dying seconds of the game. Normally I can't care less about the Fins but I was the only one picking them over Cincy. Knowing my luck the Fins will find a way to screw it. :laydownlaughing

 

[kskate2]

You win Didi. Fins win the OT w/ a safety of all things. Horrible night for Dalton, but Bengals don't deserve to win throwing 3 picks.

 

[DarthFed]

Frickin Dalton was my starting qb this week with Kaepernick on a bye. That holding call was BS, wiped away a 50 yard td pass and then then the clown threw a pick six!

Well that and the Bengals just aren't that good...

The "aints" had a bad day.

Eagles/Foles having an excellent day... five touchdowns so far after scoring none the two previous games.

edit: 7 touchdown passes by Nick Foles - ties the NFL record.

It's a good day for my father who is a longtime Eagles fan.

^ Dreadful day at the races for us Raiders fans. No pash rush and apalling pass coverage.

Yeah, sorry you guys were on the receiving end of that. It was nice to see former Penn State quarterback Matt McGloin come in and lead the Raiders down the field for a score!

 

[the AntiPusher]

Waiting on the Seahawks to loose a close game is like waiting on your ex girlfriend to stop hating your guts :devil..It will never happen

The owner of Tampa Bay football team should place kick his foot in the dumb coach's backside

 

[DarthFed]

Yeah that was a crazy day. Even up 21-0 I figured it was 50-50 at best for Tampa. There is a reason they are now 0-8! The Chiefs were toast if Tuel Time didn't deliver a 14 point swing with a 101 yard pick six. Philly and Washington scored semi-surprise victories IMO. Houston choked away the game tonight too. Only the Jets held on for a big upset. Hope the Packers don't get the bug tomorrow.

Haven't heard about Kubiak yet but John Fox has some heart valve issue that will require surgery. It is pretty bizarre that both had problems within 24 hours of each other. The conservative play calling in the 2nd half cost the Texans.

also, the team had to be shaken by the loss of Gary the coach
