I got 7 games out of 4 right last week, with 2 undecided...I said if I got over 50% I would move my pics here...so I'll give it a shot...it's a fun way to excercise the mind...
Some things I'll add...If I'm 100% sure...I'll say 'It's a lock or 100%
If it's a total random guess...I'll say that...
If I'm unsure...I'll write like 70% sure they will win...in other words I'll percentile my confidence in the pic....
And for now it's just win or loose...not into the spread stuff and all...not good enough for that yet...and don't follow induvisual players close enough to have that good of a feel about scores...
And with that, I'll start on next weeks pics...some of them...all of next weeks pics will be on this post...I'll start with just a few for now...
1. Cardinals vs Falcons...Cardinals win...they have the momentum right now..
2. Ravens vs Bengals...Ravens win...their defense is incredible..the beat the Jets..
3. Cheifs vs Browns...Chiefs win...the beat the Chargers tonight..looking strong...stronger than the Browns at least...
4. Bears vs Cowboys...Cowboys always seem to flounder...so do the Bears...both teams seem to loose, win they should win and win when they should loose, and now their playing each other...hard pic...undecided as of now...
5. Eagles vs Lions...Eagles win...both teams lost their openers...Michael Vick looked good against GreenBay...Eagles starting quarter back injured...so not sure who will start...but I think they will get it done...80% sure...
6. Buffalo Bills vs Green Bay...Green Bay win...Green Bays at home next week, and will win...Buffalo is lost right now...
7. Steelers vs Titans...clash of two steel curtains..both are 1-0...both are confident...undecided as of now...
8. Dolphins vs Vikings...Vikings win...this is a bias pic...in other words Brett Farves made me go with the Vikings...they lost their opener to the Saints...this week they play at home, and I can't see the Vikings loosing at home after their opening defeat in New Orleans...
9. Panthers vs Buccaneers Tampa...Hard one...I picked the Panthers to beat the New York Giants, and was wrong...the Panthers didn't look as strong as I had hoped...and Tampa, well...their another team that falters a lot...last year they were like 3 and 12...I don't think Tampas got their act together yet...I'm going with a Panther win...70% sure...
10.Seahawks vs Broncos...Seahawks win...Broncos lost in Jacksonville, I pic I got right...I think Tebow is a big distraction to the Broncos...kinda over hyped...not his fault...and the Seahawks seem young and hungry again...they trounced the 49's...a game I was undecided on last week...and the Seahawks new coach from USC Trojans, seems to have Seattle all pumped up...Seahawks win this one at Denver...
11. Rams vs Raiders...with the Raiders, you just never know...it's like flipping a coin...last week I picked the Rams and the Raiders to both win...and they both lost...now their playing each other next week in Oakland...hard one...
Totally random pic...Raiders win at home...
12. Patriots vs Jets...Jets at home...Jets lost a tough one to the Ravens...a pic I got right last week...and now their at home...the jets handed it to the Patriots last year, and seem to have their number...still...this is a very hard game to decide upon...so another random toss up pic...Patriots win...50% sure...And the Jets have all this Live tv stuff going on and some locker room incident that involved a female reporter...
13. Jaguars vs Chargers...Jaguars beat the Broncos on Sunday, at home...are they ready for the big time??...they're another team that always seems to loose, win you think they should win...they play in San Diego...and I see them loosing this game...flying clear across the country and all...to many distractions for this young team...Chargers win...70% sure...
14. Texans vs Redskins...The Texans upset Gary Payton and the Colts...I picked the Cots to win and was wrong...I don't have a good read on this team nor do I one the Redskins, other than McNabb is their quarter back..(formerly of the Eagles)...can McNabb carry the skins over the texans?
Redskins play at home...this one is a toss up pic...random...Texans win...I guess some would consider that a upset...again...random pic 50% sure...
15. Giants vs Colts...wow...brother against brother...like the Sarena sisters...
Hard one...I'm going with big brother on this one...what big brother wants to be shown up by little brother...Payton and the Colts will get it done somehow...Colts win at home...
And finally...
16. Saints vs 49's...Saints are still looking good...they beat the Vikings on Sunday in last years superbowel re-match...Drew Breeze is still hot...a southern version of Tom Brady...Saints win in San Francisco...
Ok, I'm done...I doubt I will change anything...still undecided with the Steelers and Titans...
Again, just a fun excercise in trying to read teams...and it's best for me to pick early on in the week when I can still somewhat measure their performances from Sunday or Monday games...
Last week I got 7 pics correct, and 4 wrong..and 2 undecides...No more undecides...if I can't decide I'll just make it a random pic...
