After a week long hiatus consisting of final exams and a tough bout against 4 Loko (4 Loko: 1, me: 0), I'm back folks. Let us start this holiday weekend off with some good jolly fortune. Here goes:
Kyle:
1.) Broncos -3 at Buffalo: It's the day before Tebow's best friend and savior's birthday. He has to perform. Even Santa has the Tebows this week.
2.) Seattle +1 vs San Fran: Here's my thinking on this. I'm taking Seattle here. If they win, then Green Bay has nothing to play for. That means, the Bears should be a lock tomorrow night. I need wins in bunches.
3.) Chicago +11 vs Green Bay: see above.
4.) Over 50.5 Philadelphia at Dallas: Dallas has had no answer for Vick and the Eagles' offense in the past couple matchups. Couple that with Romo and the Boys rolling of late, this one has the makings of a classic shootout.
5.) Over 49.5 Miami at New England: The Pats went into a game last week against a defense that had been absolutely rolling. All they did was put up a 40 spot on them. I don't see anyone stopping the Pats right now, especially this overrated Miami secondary. Couple that with the Patriots awful defense, this one will be flying over early in the 4th quarter.
Last week: 0-0
All time: 14-16
Brett:
After another disappointing week last week at 2-2-1, I'm looking for a little bit of Christmas magic. There are some interesting lines this week and I'm going to try to take advantage of them:
1. Oakland (+3) at Kansas City - I really don't think KC is that good of a team. Oakland should be able to put some pressure on Orton and force him into some bad throws. This is a bit of a revenge game for the Raiders and Carson Palmer, as Palmer struggled to the tune of three interceptions in their last meeting. Let's go Silver and Black.
2. Pittsburgh (-10) vs. St. Louis - Kellen Clemens vs. Charlie Batch. Yes, that's seriously a starting quarterback matchup in 2011. I still think the Steelers should be able to move the ball against the Rams, while the Rams will not be able to move it against them. They should be able to cover this, and I'll be pretty disappointed if they let up.
3. Dallas (-1) vs. Philadelphia - This is another one of those life hedges. Romo has been very, very good over the last 8 weeks. The Eagles have come on of late, and I really do believe in them; however, I think the Cowboys are at worse a coin flip here on a neutral field. They're home, so I'll lean towards them.
4. Dallas vs. Philadelphia Over 50.5 - Points, points, points. They could come in bunches here with big plays on either side. Last time these two met, the Eagles put up 34, quickly. Look for both teams to run it up here,.
5. Arizona (+4.5) at Cincinnati - Two good defenses here with two young, pretty inexperienced QBs. I expect a pretty low-scoring game. AJ Green is banged up and will be up against Patrick Peterson, which could stymie the Bengals' offense. Look for this one to be very close all the way through.
Last Week: 2-2-1
Total Season: 21-17-1
