Weekly Picks

Brutal!

philadelphia +1 NEW YORK GIANTS
The Giants are absolutely brutal right now. I still think they could win a few games if they would just stop turning the ball over, but their offensive line is so bad that they can't run the ball, or give Eli the time to pass effectively.

kansas city -2 1/2 TENNESSEE
I hate picking against teams using their backup quarterbacks because so often those guys play better than we expect, remember Brian Hoyer? But I think Kansas City's success is based on not turning the ball over. So long as Alex Smith can keep the ball the Chiefs should win this game.

CINCINNATI -1/2 new England
This pick makes no sense except that the Bengals played poorly last week, and the Patriots played great in prime time. And teams don't always play the same way every week.

ATLANTA -10 new york jets
I was listening to the baseball playoffs on ESPN Radio NY. They were promoting the Jets game "Geno and the Jets will try to limit the turnovers..." If that's the best your hometown radio station can expect, you don't have much chance.

BEST BET
denver -7 1/2 DALLAS
Maybe I am a little late to jump on the Broncos bandwagon but they are so good, and the Cowboys are so bad, especially on defense. I have no idea how the hell they are going to stop Peyton. And I don't seem Denver just throwing up a random stinker.
