Sorry sports fans im late on posting these picks, but when 2 hours of pick up basketball calls you answer, ok where did we leave off? Right it was Week 7 I went 9-4 for the winnners and predicted the Lions losing and Broncos winning BAM. Lets do it again my brain has new intel and my paper has new winners and analysis AND MY GAMES OF THE WEEK AND SOME SPECIAL ANALYSIS FOR MY AMIGO NICKS TEAM THE EAGLES LETS TAKE IT FROM THE TOP!!!!
COLTS VS TITANS (Titans)
AFC south matchups this weekend with my TEXANS sitting atop the division somebodies gotta come in second and I'm calling Matt bringing it home for the Titans because of the non-existent Colts offense and Titans actually being a consistent team they will take the win home.
Saints vs Rams(Saints)
Quite frankly im expecting another 62-7 game hahahaha but seriously the Rams defense is put under alot of strain because of the lack of wide reciever production and eventually they snap as we saw with the Dallas blowout. If they snapped under against Dallas they will shatter against the Saints who apparently dont understand the concept of mercy.
Dolphins vs Giants(Giants)
The Dolphins are better off starting me at QB(I played Offensive Line at Valpo for 5 games) they litterally just need someone to get it to thier number one weapon BRANDON MARSHALL, but besides that thier are so many other issues with the Dolphins program they cannot play a complete game against the always deadly Giants they have a complete team the offense is well balanced they are still serching for a lead reciever but the good thing is that everyone at that position is throwing thier name in for consideration and all have good arguments, Thier running back tandem is highly effective, thier defense althought extremely injury ridden has been very effective at not only allowing the team pull out key victories but also save the team when the offense is stalled.
Viking vs Panthers (Panthers)
The two new Kids on the block in a showdown both have big time running backs, Adrian Peterson and Jonathan Stewart and De Angelo Williams for the Panthers. The key difference here is the talent of both quarterbacks for those who dont know Ponder actually has soe rushing ability but the fact is Cam still is the more talented, and for the third strainght week im going with Mr.Prime Time Cam Newton and the Panthers.
Cardinals vs Ravens ( Ravens)
Ok ok i know what everyones thinking man the Cardinals sucks, wrong! the Cardinals have been in every game theyve played and almost upset the Giants. This my friends is why I believe the Ravens will rise to the occasion and defeat the Cardinals. The fluke on Monday night football pitted them agaisnt a defense as top notch as Ray lewis and friends ( look it up its totally true fool the Jags always have D) and they do not face such competition in the Cardinals and therefore will bull doze them oh and Ray Rice 100 plus yards and 2 Td's
Jags vs Texans(Texans)
Ok You guys know what the deal is this my hometown team and YOU NEVER PICK AGAINST THE HOMETOWN TEAM ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY'RE playing the Jags. We win because
we CAN SCORE A TOUCHDOWN.
Redskins vs Bills(Bills)
The Bills are back and thier rampage to the top of the NFL is back on a they play the recently heartbroken Redskins as they found out the comeback of Tim Hightower has been cut short due to a torn ACL . I truly am sorry to here a guy who was basically buried in Arizona gets a second chanc e and gets taken out by unseen cicumstances, but the show must go on. Josh Beck is back and its worst than ever because he doesnt even have Santana Moss who has a broken hand. The Bills excellent blitx defense will be putting down beck all Sunday and if you thought those seven combined picks Beck and Grossman threw were bad ummmm i hear these Bills are pretty good at picking off Tom Brady can you imagine what they'll do to Beck.
Lions vs Broncos(Lions)
What time is it TEBOW TIME!!!! Mr Tebow went to work on those floundering Dolphins, the kids got game and hes good but...not that good slow your roll Tebow. The lions may be 30th in run defense but thier pass defense is highly effective and at the end of the day Tebow is a quarterback the pass is his first and the run his second. After Brandon Llyod being tradeded away the wide reciever core is basically devised of guys fresh into the league or have been here awhile but dont adjust well to change. Which is why you understand the reluctancy the swtchs QB's especially when the Recievers have gone on record saying they think he throws at wierd angles smh. Thier inability to gel will be Tebows undoing and ultiamltely his teams as from what I hear the Lions arent to kind to comebacks.
GAME OF THE WEEK ALERT
PATRIOTS VS STEELERS(Patriots)
Yes its finally here the matchup of the week The Unstoppable Wave versus the Unmovable Object
. Two very well developed teams one with a high profile defense and offense the other with the offense of the century . Now your wondering whose going to win it. Well The Ashton has your answer right here The Patriots, i know what your thinking this 19 year old is just another offense freak wrong mi amigos my favorite postition in football is actually DT . My reasoning is this the Patriots do one thing very well that any good athlete and team should do to be champions and that is ADAPT!!!!! The Patriots have the ability to decipher and breakdown defenses abilites and weaknesses. The fatal flaw of the Steelers is that they thier defesne is centered around masking and digusising defense to control the outsome of every battle its just that The Patriots will win the most imoportant battle the first battle the only battle that counts the battle of the MIND.
Cowboys vs Eagles(Eagles)
hahaha This ones for you Nick ok so here the breakdown youve been hearing it all week the Eagles have the best run game and the Cowgirls are the best at stopping it. What they've failed to mention is the Eagles still have an atrocious defense but are very high on the pass rush, which hahaha proves to be Romo's one weakeness 300 pound linemen falling on him. This is the key to stopping the Cowboys mojo. The Cowboys already have wide receiever issues where Dez is the only who seems to show up to help out Romo. The Eagles win because of Pass Rush.
Chargers vs Chiefs (Chargers)
Uh oh the Chiefs are on a four game win streak and oh yeah those Chargers guys just finihsed blowing a lead against an offensively childish Jets team, so yeah this week is looking rough for the Powder Blues, but the fact is they still have a very effective offense, and in case you guys forgot the Chiefs defense has taken a huge hit from injuries they're on the rise but all in all the Chargers are the overall better team even thought coaching is questionable sometimes this team is poised to win Sunday.
Browns vs 49ers (49ers)
AlthoughtJosh Morgan is out of comission the 49ers offesne is not Alex Smith should never have been taken over Aaron Rodgers but the fact is he was and hes in San Francisco and hes on fire. The run game has finally allowed for his pass game to actually suceed. The Browns lead by the Texas product Colt McCoy and Peyton Hillis is on the path to recovery but is not in comission to compete . Thier defense has a good pass rush but the fact is it does not let the dog pound get over the hump just yet thier need to be more pieces of the puzzle.
