| NFL Week 5 The NFL 2007 Season thread tends to be a discussion of the NFL overall. I thought a specific thread each week where we pick winners might be fun. Or I'm just heading for the rickshaw. Either way, I like the idea (albeit stolen from another forum because I'm a plagiarist like that) and so, here you go.
Here are the games:
Arizona at St. Louis
Atlanta at Tennessee
Carolina at New Orleans
Cleveland at New England
Detroit at Washington
Jacksonville at Kansas City
Miami at Houston
N.Y. Jets at N.Y. Giants
Seattle at Pittsburgh
Tampa Bay at Indianapolis
Baltimore at San Francisco
San Diego at Denver
Chicago at Green Bay
Dallas at Buffalo
Here's my picks: Arizona at St. Louis (Rams continue to tumble)
Atlanta at Tennessee (Vince Young ftw) Carolina at New Orleans (/mourn last season's hype. N.O. has a chance, but I think it depends not on how good they play, but how poorly Carolina does.)
Cleveland at New England (I don't think that's a stretch.) Detroit at Washington (I like Campbell, but I think Detroit's on a roll this year.)
Jacksonville at Kansas City (This is a tough one, but I'm going with Herm.)
Miami at Houston (Miami sucks)
N.Y. Jets at N.Y. Giants (I think Pennington is the smarter QB, but his arm sucks. Going with my Giants on this one. Hopefully the D shows up again.)
Seattle at Pittsburgh (Big Ben ftw)
Tampa Bay at Indianapolis (Tampa's D is looking good as is Garcia, but Indy is... well, Indy.) Baltimore at San Francisco San Diego at Denver (Really depends on Denver's ability to stop the run, but having Travis Henry out is going to hurt.)
Chicago at Green Bay (Bears continue to plummet. Their D can't help stop the fall anymore. It's too hurt and Brett is playing like it's the 90's.) Dallas at Buffalo (No contest) |
