 Some very good games this weekend, the best ones should be:  

San Diego at Miami

Buffalo at N.Y. Jets

Indianapolis at Denver

Green Bay at Tampa Bay

Philadelphia at San Francisco

My picks would  go to: San Diego, Buffalo, Indianapolis, Green Bay, and San Francisco. Just want to know what you guys think of this weeks games.

Well, in my pick-em league I realized that I was correct less than 50% of the time (still in first), so I started making my picks by coin toss as to do better.

I say San Diego, Buffalo, Denver, Green Bay, San Fransisco.

Not that I don't have faith in CU graduate Koy Detmer to lead the Eagles...I just don't.  Oh, and props to on again off again starter and CU graduate Kordell Stewart for looking like a QB in the fourth quarter of the game...hopefully he can continue to do so in however many games he gets to play this time.

I haven't been watching football much this season, but
Miami, NY, Indianapolis, Tampa, SF

 Flame, why do you take the Dolphins of the Chargers? You really think that Ray Lucas can do anything against the Chargers defense?

Miami - defense and ricky williams will pull this one out over overrated chargers, ray lucas wont have to do shit

Buffalo will take the jets out without breaking a sweat? i predict a VERY high scoring game

I think Denver will beat Indy even without Griese, Clinton Portis is damn good and they have a solid backup in Beurlain

After getting destroyed by the Vikings last week, I'm giving this one to the best defense in the NFL (Tampa Bay)

San Francisco will easily beat a McNabb-less Philly.  Won't even be a contest

Heh, I told you i havent been watching football a lot lately.
So, I picked the underdogs (except maybe SF)

Tasty, I wouldn't put much stock into Green Bay losing at the Vikings...they always lose in Minnesota.

 Yeah, the Packers never do well against the Vikings. I'd expect this to be a close game, I'll take the Pack, 27-24. As for the Dolphins... Not a chance, Ricky Williams won't do anything against that tough Chargers defense. I'll take the Chargers 31-14. I expect a great offensive and defensive show from the Chargers. Denver and Indy, this should be an exellent game. I really like the Colts chances though, I expect Manning to have a great day against the Bronco's secondary.

Wow they actually have some good games this week. My 2 favorite teams facing each other: Philadelphia vs San Fransisco - Eagles are my favorite.
My picks are.....
San Diego over Miami
Buffalo over the Jets
Eagles over he Niners
Denver over Indianapolis and finally
Packers over the Buccaneers

 Matt, what do you base the Eagle over the 49ers on? Without your best player, your chances are usually greatly reduced, especialy when he is your quarterback.

The Broncos statistically have the best defense in the AFC.  And without question the best rush defense in the NFL.  They will shut James down and contain the pass defense.  And unlike the Colts, the Broncos can play on both sides...they have a great offense (even with so many injuries) and the Colts won't be able to keep up.

 This year, the Colts have an average defense. But their offense is as explosive as anyone's on a good day. I expect this to be a very high scoring game. Probably about 38-31, Indy.

San Diego, New York Jets, Denver, Green Bay and San Fransico.  Btw the Giants are going to beat the Texans and tie Philadelphia in the standings when they lose.  =D

did all of you forget about our superbowl champs The NewEnglend Patriots. They battle Randy Moss and the Vikings and I will be at Foxboro Stadium to Root them on. GO PATS!!!4 teams in our devision all at 5 and 5, so very close.

 I didn't call the New England Minisota matchup a big game because the Vikings suck. I expect the Pats to win that about 35-10.

Detmerse was the old QB i dont think he is good anymore but i think the rest of the team will play better becuase they will play harder becuase of McNabb's injury. Therefore, Eagles have a fair chance of winning.

i predict that the seahawks will lose, no matter who they play

 I dunno Jeb, the Bengals might be able to give them a good run, they might just barely beat them. Matt, we're talking the 49ers here, this isn't some weak team or anything.

Well, except for the Vikings...a pity the Seahawks don't play the Vikings every week.  Good thing they don't play the Broncos again.

San Diego/N.Y. Jets/Denver/Tampa Bay/San Francisco

McNabb Hurt, Away from Lambou coming off kick ass win at San Fran, Broncos lighting up again, Jets under rated.

At any rate you know what superbowl would be tight even though its not possible? Saints v Falcons III (two games decided by what 10 total points is nice) Aaron Brooks went to UVA (the college i am in city with) while Vick went to VTech (who all people within city limits hate with a passion). Regardless saints are my superbowl pick but I think Sapp will be on Farve like white on rice.

well, i'm assuming that your second comment about being away from lambeau is referring to tampa. (please, be more clear next time. we can't read your mind and thus know the thought pattern that spawned thet blurb)

i will, of course take the pack over tampa(hell, i was born in wisconsin. i'd take the back against  tampa even if all the starters were benched)
i do believe that you are underestimating the desire to prove something zait. the packers lost to a viking team, that according the record, should have been the other way around. i would be supriused if the packes didnt come on the field looking like they have something to prove.

about the away from lambeau comment. this is i big rivalry game this week. i would expect to see plenty of cheeseheads in the stands. besides. this actually allows the buccs a chance to win. farve is something like 35-0 when it's below freezing? it's below that in green bay today, same was expected for tomorrow. tampa has a horrid record in lambeau. they're probably thanking their lucky stars that the're playing at home.

the other teams i dont really care about. they are  just something else to watch on sunday.

Bondo, how little you know about your own team...while Denver has the best Rush D, they give up a whopping 68% of completions. With Peyton Manning coming to town and top reciever Marvelous Harrison, the Denver D will be torched (look how the Raiders bent them over and raped them with no lube).

As for the games mentioned....

Dolphins, Jets, Colts, Buccaneers, 49ers

All I know is 49ers all the way (although they'll never actually go... all the way... Think about it... Kings, get fucked over by refs in a crucial games.. Giants, fuck up their championship. My teams gonna have to lose in the playoffs to keep their record!)

Ben

the problem with seattle is this,
we have a decent baseball team that everyone loves so paul allen (from the evil M$) decides to buy the seahawks and make them 1337. To much money has been put into the stadium and the fan fair, but when its time to buy ourselves a good offensive line its a struggle. Holmgren has a ring, so does our quarterback, but yet we suck more than dest's sister at a frat party. Its begining to look like we are gonna fire us a coach :D
Seattle isn't a town like boston where our fans love the team if it sucks, the only reason people are going to see the seahawks is to see the new stadium. Also tickets are around 30$ a seat for the worst seats in the stadium, which aren't bad, but its still a shitload to pay to watch the hawks add more looses to their record.

Sin, Pass completion is not how they rate Defenses...yardage and points are...and Denver is still good there.  One bad game does not a bad defense make.

Holy shit, Assassin picked the same as me!

well jeb, if holmgren gets the boot, i think i know a team that might hire him back as an assistant...

Heh, and to think that any of you know anything about football...

I thought I analyzed my picks, but I guess I didn't...so I will go through my thought process for each pick.

Dolphins - Dolphins have always had a great D, Lucas was starting to take shape, and Ricky Williams is a force to always be reckoned with. COuple all of that with SD slumping (win over niners was lucky) and Brees has become inconsistant (not helped by super Miami D).

Jets - Jets have been on a tear as of late behind Chad Pennington and Curtis Martin is playing like the player expected of him fromt he preseason. Jets are showing why (finally) why they were picked by some to win the AFC East.

Colts - Have been playing good football without James healthy...and now he is healthy COlts big three has shown they can put up points and Dungy has shaved points of what was once a piss-poor defense.

Buccaneers - Favre, like in Minnesota, plays like crap in Tampa. Still winless at Raymond James stadium against a perrenially tough Buccaneers D and now a revamped Bucc's O behind new coach Gruden. As you witnessed, the BUcc's D lived up to their billing and destroyed Green Bay.

49ers - Eagles without McNabb are a team who will struggle to make playoffs. McNabb was the offense and his loss will be fatal.

SO, by tomorrow, you will see that Flame (lucky guesses  ;)) and I will be a perfect 5 for 5.

yea, the buccs did do a number on green bay...
2 words desctibed the pack after the half   total breakdown.  too many stpid penalties against a team where you cant make mistakes if you expect to win.

 i expect to see this game played out in the playoffs. where remains to be seen(more than likely in tampa, who has an effective 2 game lead on the pack now)
one thing is for shure though. After that cheap shot by sapp, if they do meet in the playoffs, both teams will be out for blood


p.s. what do yo think of warren sapp's hit on chad clifton in the third quarter?

 LoL, I just spent 10 minutes digging through old DVDs trying to find the one that I have of Favre's win at Tampa, only to find that I was wrong, and Sin is right, it was at home. My pick of Green Bay was more from my heart than my brain. This is the second week that my picks have really gone down, big. I'll be 2-2 on my picks, after the 49ers beat up the Eagles tonight. Oh well, I'll do better next week.

I pity the fools that picked Buffalo over NY Jets. Did you guys not do your homework and relize that the Jets were on a 3 game winning streak before facing Buffalo. They beat the chargers, Dolphins and the Lions, two of which are considered to be top teams in the league. Right now the Jets have one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL arguably. Chad Pennington has the highest catch/attempt percentage for any rookie quarterback in history.

I don't know why some people said it was going to be an easy win for the Bills ** stares at tasty**. After the Jets put Pennington as quarterback they are a whole new club. I expect them in the playoffs.

J  E  T  S, Jets, Jets, Jets !!!!!!! ;D

 Man, and now the pick that I was sure of goes down... Stupid 49ers...

Kudos to Detmer, but oo bad he fucked up his elbow and is probably out for the season. Philly is at the third sting now, lmfao.

4/5 isn't too bad...im sure everyone messed up on the 49ers/Eagles pick.

Hehe i picked the Eagles omfg Hasselback they are going to use a QB in training? If the Eagles make it to the playoffs my face will be like this :o Go Eagles!

Goddamn Eagles - ah well, 4/5 isnt bad.

 Throwin' in my picks for the Thanksgiving day games!

I'll take New England over Detroit, and Washington over Dallas.

Happy Thanksgiving to you all. :)

Ill take New England over Detroit and Dallas over Washington.

Happy Thanksgiving Eve,
Mattster

I'll take New England over Detroit, although I'll be rooting for Detroit, and I'll take Dallas over Washington because Dallas is my Thanksgiving team.

 Not a good way to start the week... I was sure on both of these games, leaving it to fucking Washington to lose to Dallas... I'll post my picks for week 13 on Saturday.

 Mmk, almost forgot these:

Miami, Balitmore, Green Bay, Pittsburg, Kansas City, Atlanta, Indy, and San Fran.

Goodnight! :)

Way to choose all of the easy answers in all of the easy games.

If you want a challenge, you have to pick in games like Tennesee/NY Giants, Denver/San Diego, St. Louis/Philadelphia, NY Jets/Oakland and Tampa Bay/New Orleans.

Anyone could have picked those teams to be winners by looking at their records, Typhy.

For the games I just mentioned:

Titans: Tennesee's running offense awakens when they face a poor Giants D and McNair has a field day.

Broncos: San Diego is in a slump and they wont get out of it this week - Griese sitting or not.

Eagles: Phily D will abuse banged up Warner and offense will score just enough to get by (even with 3rd string QB)

Raiders: Raiders Offense clicking on all cylinders and Charlie Garner will abuse a soft Jets front line.

Buccaneers: Deuce McAllister is injured and maybe out for this one, so expect the Bucc's D to abuse Aaron Brooks en route to victory at the Superdome

 Heh, I know that Sin. I was just very tired.

I'll take:

Tenneessee, Denver, Tampa Bay, Oakland, and the Rams.  

My picks are....

San Diego, Oakland, Tennesee, Philadelphia and New Orleans.

I know you like my preseason picks doing well this week. Both San Fran and New Orleans won close games but now the saints are just 1 game back in thier division which will most likely play host to a division leader and maybe BOTH wild card picks. The Niners held off the Seahawks and I think if they win and the rams lose they will have clinched
