ONE TIME Sanchez .... ONE TIME. Or put Tebow in! Tebow! Tebow! Tebow!

Chargers upset Ravens because Phillis "Crymea" Rivers always beats them for some reason and he is pissed at getting pwned by the Broncos twice.

Houston gets upset because Lions show them whats up in Detroit on Thanksgiving.

Giants "upset" the Packers, I guess.

Coppernickle gets second start and stumbles a little giving edge to Saints at home.

Panthers and Eagles suck making Monday nights game unwatchable.

Is Cutler coming back? Because I should change my pick if he isn't. Jason Campbell makes that o-line look even worse. Gotta give it to Jay for actually doing something with such a horrendously bad offensive line.

It's still up in the air, but I am leaning towards no though he says he is feeling ok overall.

"We're going through the process. Met with them Monday morning, the doctor. Got a few more hoops to jump through, so we'll see how it goes this week."

I've never seen a commentator downsell an upcoming broadcast....until Mike Tirico last Monday, when describing this coming Monday Night game between the Panthers and the Eagles.

"These two teams next week, are just terrible."

:D

And that wasn't random commentary during the game, it was when ESPN put up the logo and graphic for the game, as they usually do. lol.

Ohhhh ... someone else picking that Browns upset. Nice

Not that much of an upset since Pittsburgh is down to their third string quarterback.

Sadly I agree with your prediction re: Ravens losing. Their offense is still shit on the road.

Pretty much reason why I'm picking against the Seahawks this week. Drastic QBR drop for Wilson when he's on the road..

Can the Pats' offense still be the same force without undoubtedly the league's best TE Gronk?, the Jets will be fired up at home and desperately need a win to have any shot a a playoff berth..

I took the Packers +3 (+105) at the Giants and the Jags +3 (+110) at home vs. the Titans. Wish me luck!

Hard not to take points with Rodgers even though I actually want them to lose.

seriously?

Why not? They should have lost to the Jags last week when they were in their own stadium. Jags are 2nd worst team in the league and thats only because the Chiefs have ZERO offense. Why couldn't they lose to a decent team on the road?

I already said it was an upset, only idiots pick the favorites in every game every week.

Falcons @ Buccaneers 1:00 PM ET FOX
49ers @ Saints 4:25 PM ET FOX
Packers @ Giants 8:20 PM ET NBC
Panthers @ Eagles 8:30 PM ET ESPN

These are the only games I think will are really a toss up in who will win. (Maybe Steelers game too because Big Ben is out)

I think Falcons beat Bucs. Even with a bad game last week, Falcons are best record in NFC and tied for best record in the NFL for a reason. They find ways to win. If not for a fantastic defensive play in the end zone by the Saints near the end of the game, Falcons would still be undefeated.

Saints and 49ers could be a good game. Saints started the season poorly and have come on strong in recent weeks. Also they're fighting for their playoff lives and can't drop more than 1 game and have a decent chance at post season still. 49ers are one of the best teams in the NFL and are playing like it. Expect 49ers to put the first nail in the coffin of the Saints 2012 playoff hopes.

Packers and Giants in a matchup of the last 2 Super Bowl winners should be really good. The Giants could win this if they play up to their talent level. However I expect Green Bay to put up more point than the Giants can possibly answer.

Panthers and Eagles in a battle of bad teams having bad years. Not going to be particularly exciting I figure. This game could go either way, but I expect the Panthers to find win number 3 here.

I agree with the Packers and Giants game being the best. Whoever wins that game is the favorite in the NFC because I couldn't possible think less of the Falcons chances as true contenders. They are pretenders and will prove it in the playoffs.

Manning will get his shit together, he has had the worst 3 games of his career since his rookie season, after the Bye week they will have a mostly healthy Hakeem Nicks back and should get their shit together. Here is hoping any way

Unfortunately for you, the Cowboys are much better than the Eagles. I know that isn't saying much, but Tony Homo and crew need to get some meaningful wins ASAP before Jerry Jones has a meltdown.
