NFL WEEK 7 PICKS: MY BEST PICKS NOW
October 19th, 2007 | by HG |
I don’t take sides in any game involving the Philadelphia Eagles.. For the most part. If they were to make the playoffs, I would include the Eagles in my game predictions. Cleveland, Green Bay, San Diego, and Carolina have the bye week. The home team is in bold type.
Arizona +7 over Washington: It’s gonna be Kurt Warner with tape and a brace on his elbow, or Tim Rattay at qb for the Cardinals. It sounds like either way, it’s gonna end up being Rattay under center. I’m banking on the Redskins looking ahead to playing the Patriots next week.
New Orleans -9 over Atlanta: The Saints can’t be all the way back based on one game, but Atlanta’s struggling. Leftwich takes over Harrington… We’ll see.
Baltimore -3 over Buffalo: The fans in Buffalo are waiting for Willis McGahee. The Bills are coming off a bye week but I still think rookie qb Trent Edwards will be overmatched.
Minnesota +9.5 over Dallas: The Boys will come out with something to prove after getting handled by the Patriots. The Vikings are gonna have to use ball control to stay close in this game.
Miami +16 over New England: I’ve been taking the Patriots until further notice.. This weekend is further notice. I can’t bring myself to pass up 16 points for a NFL team at home. I don’t care who the two teams are. It’s gotta be tough for the Patriots to get it up for Cleo Lemon and the Fish after facing the Dallas Cowboys.
San Francisco +9.5 over NYG: Classic team off of a bye week vs. team that played on Monday night matchup. To tell the truth, I don’t know what the stats are in this situation… It seems like it should add up in favor of Frisco.
Tampa Bay +2 over Detroit: If you look at the stats, neither of these teams are impressive. Tampa’s 4-2 record and the Lions’ 3-2 record are what really matter. Tampa Bay needs the win to take over sole ownership of 1st place in the South, while Detroit is trying to gain ground on the idle Packers. Tampa wins the game.
Tennessee -1 over Houston: This is an if then pick. If Vince plays, I’m going with the Titans. Vince has to play the entire game for this pick to be valid..Yes, I’m hedging.
Oakland -3 over Kansas City: Yawwn..
Cincinnati -6 over NYJ: The Jets are terrible, the Bengals are terrible but Cincy will be less terrible on this day. If Marvin Lewis quits now, he still has time to get his name in the mix for the Yankees job.
Seattle -8.5 over St. Louis: This pick is all about the St. Louis Rams being the biggest disappointment on turf. How many experts picked them to make the playoffs? Hell if I know, but it was a lot.
Pittsburgh -3.5 over Denver: I have to take the Steelers here. Denver hasn’t played up to the level I was expecting from them this season.
Jacksonville +3 over Indianapolis: The Colts are undefeated no more. Jack Del Rio and his team are gonna pull off the upset on Monday Night Football.
