Week 7 Picks

Saints +3 over Rams- Let's just say I'm a little scorned by the Rams being 13.5 point underdogs, winning 17-0 early and NOT covering when the final gun sounded.  Rams, I officially hate you.  All of you.

Giants -2 over Broncos- A homer pick- plus, I think the Broncs are a smidge overrated.

Vikings +1.5 over Packers- The Vikes have nothing going for them, but picking against Favre in a dome usually works.

Colts -15 over Texans- The Texans might cover- at the end of the first quarter....then again, maybe not.

Steelers +1 over Bengals- The Bengals have padded their record by beating a lot of bad teams.  But hey, they used to be one of the bad ones, so good for them.  They fail their first real test, though.

Chargers +3.5  over Eagles- Maybe it's wishful thinking, but I don't think Philly's blow-out loss in Big D was a blip.  McNabb is more hurt than he's letting on and the defense is not good enough to stop the best running back in the league, Tomlinson.

Chiefs +1.5 over Dolphins- Chiefs will win 30-20.  I just know it.

Browns -3 over Lions- Dilfer or Harrington?  I'll go with the guy who has won a Super Bowl.  He may not be that great, but he's the better of the two.

49ers +13 over Redskins- The Redskins don't even score 13 points a game.  One score and the Niners will cover.

Sehawks -4 over Cowboys-  This one seems too easy.  Cowboys have to come down after two huge division wins, don't they?  The Seahawks looked like world beaters against Houston, but it was Houston.  Still, I'll be shocked if the Cowboys don't stumble a little here.

Bills +3 over Raiders- No Moss, plus a Bills team that has scrapped their plan to ride out the mistakes of a young quarterback in favor of the try to win now with a veteran method.  I think the Bills win outright.

Ravens +1 over Bears- Somebody has to score, right?

Titans +4.5 over Cardinals- Was I asleep when the Cards suddenly became good enough to be favored over someone?

Falcons -7 over Jets-  I would take the Falcons -14.  The Jets are so done, it's not even funny.  Oh wait, yes it is.  Ha Ha Ha!  Vinny Testaverde!  Ha Ha Ha!
