NFL Week 8

by @ 9:50 on October 28, 2007. Filed under Sports.

After last week’s 8-6 money-making performance, I’m now only 11 games under .500 (we won’t talk about those over/unders). Guess I’m peaking just in time for the 2007 Weblog Awards (we’ll know if the Bar is going to the finals later this week, and if it is, we really should have somebody lined up to go out to Vegas for Blogworld where the awards will be handed out Nov. 8-9). With that in mind, let’s start making serious bank with this week’s picks.

Green Bay (+3) @ Denver – Which Bronco team will show up, the one that stiffed the Steelers or the one that got shocked out of existence by the Chargers? Walker’s out, so take the latter. Oh, and take the over-42.5.
Detroit @ Chicago (-6) – I was SOOOO tempted to take the Lions until I remembered that this is on the road in the cold.
Philadelphia @ Minnesota (+1.5) – If it were just the Vikes D versus the Eagles, I would still take my one-and-a-half. In fact, that’s pretty much what it is, so take the under-37.5.
Cleveland (-3) @ St. Louis – We could have two teams go 0-16 this year. I see nothing that will stop the Lambs from sinking further towards that hole this week.
Indianapolis (-7) @ Carolina – CBS will let NOTHING happen to its dream matchup next week.
NY Giants (-10) “@” Miami – Can someone tell me why we’re playing an NFL regular-season game in Londonistan? Oh, that’s right, the Fins aren’t an NFL team.
Oakland @ Tennessee (-7) – It does not matter who’s starting for the Tennesseans; they’re playing a 1-AA school.
Pittsburgh (-4) @ Cincinnati – Stat of the week: Pittsburgh is 6-0 in their last 6 trips to Cincy.
Buffalo (+3) @ NY Jets – You may like the points, you may want the points, and by law, you will get the points, but you’re not gonna need them; the Bills are starting their squeaky-new QB, the Jets are stuck on stupid.
Houston @ San Diego (-9) – If a fire can’t stop the Bolts, what makes the Texans think they can?
Jacksonville (+4) @ Tampa Bay – It’s a MASH-unit mash. Stat that won’t survive the day – Jeff Garcia does not have a pick yet this year.
New Orleans (-3) @ San Francisco – Three weeks ago, that -3 would’ve been in the Niners’ corner. Now, they’re the disfunctional team, while the Saints got their “S” back.
Washington @ New England (-17) – Lesson of the day: Don’t bring Jason Campbell to a shootout.
