NFL Picks

After giving everyone a reprieve from my pro picks last week, I feel like I'm ready this week. I'm just thankful that I didn't see the pic allegedly tweeted out of Justin Bieber naked. I just don't like the idea of that image seared in my retinas.Why do celebrities pose in front of a mirror with their i-phone and then, ahem, accidentally tweet out a nude photo? Yes, I know....someone hacked their account and took their phone will they were getting plastic surgery. And what is exactly are the South Carolina Gamecocks wearing? It looks like my 9 year old's pjs.  Anyway.....

Oakland at Atlanta-This is my lock of the week. Have you seen the rest of the Falcons schedule? If they don't go AT LEAST 13-3, then they will never have a record like that. The rest of the division is horrible and could be defeated by a team consisting of my 3 kids with my dog at QB. The Raiders are less wacky since the passing of Al Davis and they are also having an even more difficult time coughing up a win. Falcons get a big win before the bye.

Giants vs the 49ers-This should be a great game. That automatically means it will be a blowout since logic indicates this should be a good one. Elmer and Alex Smith aren't even in the same stratosphere as far as QBs go, but Alex Smith is surrounded by a really good team. So is Elmer, but Elmer is the glue of the team. HA! 49ers get the win.

 Dallas at Baltimore-It's about time for Dallas to win, right? Maybe not yet. Flacco and the Ravens don't put tons of points on the board, but if Romo tosses a couple of balls Ed Reed's way it could help. I think this is a close one, but I like the Ravens at home.

Indy at the Jets-A girl I used to work with said to me that "you have to admit Andrew Luck is cute." What? I'm not into the Andre the Giant look but he seems like a nice boy. That's all I'm willing to concede. That and Rex Ryan has really nice veneers. When you get paid the big money, you can get the lap band to lose the chub and get some phat teeth. Jets are a disaster, but I expect them to squeak out a W in this game.

Detroit at Philly- A Bulldog I like on each team (Stafford for the Lions and Boykin for the Eagles). The big news this week is that Michael Vick adopted a dog and the name of the dog is Fumbles. How apropos! The Lions have no running game and the secondary is like a colander. Is it me or does DeSean Jackson seem like a whiny biyatch? We are all something I suppose. Eagles

KC at Tampa Bay-This is the game that will be shown to those in solitary confinement. It will be more exciting and less painful to get a root canal with no anesthetic than to watch this debacle. This is very difficult. I like Matt Cassel and his concussion to squeak out a win.

NE at Seattle-I will give Seattle credit. Their defense is nice lead by Irvin who has already done some time. Hopefully for his sake, he stays on the right track. The Patriots rolled up over 6 hundy yards last week (I think it was last week.)  I'll take the Brady Bunch.

GB at Houston-GB has looked a bit uneven but I do like the new SF commercial with Aaron Rodgers in the classroom. Houston is undefeated and looks pretty good. However, are they really a Super Bowl contender? Mmmmm. The Packers are desperate and I think they knock of the Texans. This is based on nothing but it's about time for the Texans to lose.

Minnesota at Washington-I know...I know. Everyone says the Vikings are for really and Percy Harbins is 2 legit to quit. Love RG3.  This one is very difficult. I'll take the Redskins in a close one.

Buffalo at AZ-This is the backup game to KC at TB to be shown to those worthy of punishment. Cards have a nice D and Buffalo should be excited to leave Buffalo. Cards

I have to do well at least one week....right? XO
