Can Favre Keep The Magic Going?
THURSDAY Night Game!
Chicago at San Francisco – The Chicago Bears laid one heck of a stinker against the Arizona Cardinals and it is hard to imagine how their morale could possibly be up. Quarterback Jay Cutler is doing his best to keep them afloat, but they simply have to get that running game with Matt Forte going. I think they will continue to struggle this week against the San Francisco 49ers, but will still have enough firepower to win.
Winner – Chicago Bears
SUN, NOV 15
New Orleans at St. Louis – the New Orleans Saints faced one heck of a test in their week nine matchup against Carolina, and it gets decidedly easier this week. The Saints may just score 100 points.
Winner – New Orleans Saints
Tampa Bay at Miami – Tampa Bay liked that taste of a win, and do it again against the Dolphins. Josh Freeman is no joke folks. He may end up being the best of the bunch from 2009 rookie quarterbacks.
Winner – Tampa Bay Bucs
Detroit at Minnesota – The Vikings might just run the ball every single down against the Lions. Look for Adrian Peterson to have the biggest game of the season for a running back.
Winner – Minnesota Vikings
Jacksonville at NY Jets – The Jets simply have to win this game if they have any hopes of making the playoffs. They still could get in of course, but they are on a trend that could doom the season.
Winner – NY Jets
Buffalo at Tennessee – The Titans open things up this week for Vince Young and it pays off big time. The Titans are fully capable of beating the Bills, and will do so with ease.
Winner – Tennessee Titans
Cincinnati at Pittsburgh – Back and forth I have went on this one. While the Bengals looked great last week, the Steelers looked even better. I think they will take care of business with a great passing game and a solid defense.
Winner – Pittsburgh Steelers
Denver at Washington – The Broncos desperately needed a team like the Skins to pop up on the schedule. They finally get back in the win column.
Winner – Denver Broncos
Atlanta at Carolina – The Panthers found out against New Orleans that they are as good as anybody. They really want revenge against the Falcons and history says they will get it. Williams runs wild this week once again.
Winner – Carolina Panthers
Kansas City at Oakland – Oakland wins this game simply because they always show up against KC. While I do think this will be a close game, I do not think it will be a pretty win. The Raiders never win pretty.
Winner – Oakland Raiders
Seattle at Arizona – The Cardinals looked fantastic last week against the Bears. Expect more of the same against the lowly Seahawks.
Winner – Arizona Cardinals
Dallas at Green Bay – Green Bay got shocked by the other Bay last week and Dallas won a huge game over the Eagles. I am thinking that the Cowboys are riding just high enough to win in Lambeau.
Winner – Dallas Cowboys
Philadelphia at San Diego – Conventional logic says that the Eagles will win this game. San Diego’s tradition of late season runs says that they will win. I take the trend every time.
Winner – San Diego Chargers
New England at Indianapolis – The game of the week features the two best quarterbacks in the league (arguably) and should be a lot of fun. I think that the Colts will win simply because they are at home, and Peyton Manning is not one to give in to the pressure. The game will be close, but it will be the Colts in the end.
Winner – Indianapolis Colts
MON, NOV 16
Baltimore at Cleveland – I would not want to be the Browns this week. This one will be ugly.
Winner – Baltimore Ravens
Tiebreaker Score – Baltimore 24 Cleveland 7
Week Nine Record – 8 – 5
Season Record – 82 – 47
