Week #9 and the Cowboys Suck more than EVER!

Week 9

Saints -6.5 @ Panthers

Looks like the Saints are back.  They took it to one of the best teams in the NFL last week in the Steelers.  The return of Reggie Bush will help them even more and it looks like they won’t just be a one hot wonder, as I started to think they were.

Chargers -3 @ Texans

Can we say that the Chargers have finally got their groove back?  Hopefully so.  We saw what Peyton did to the Texans last week and Rivers is on pace to shatter Marino’s single season passing yardage record.  Look for the Chargers and Philip Rivers to cut up the Texans secondary and roll into their bye week with a victory.

Jets -4 @ Lions

This game is going to be a lot closer than most people think.  The Lions have been playing good football and the return of Stafford at QB showed what they could do last week.  The Jets will win this game but it’s going to come down to the wire.

Dolphins @ Ravens -5

The Dolphins are a quirky team.  They seem like a good team but yet have such a hard time putting the ball into the endzone.  They won last week off the leg of Dan Carpenter.  Chad Henne statistically is one of the worst QB’s in the league, so look for the Ravens to provide lots of pressure and take this game.

Cardinals @ Vikings -8

The Vikings are slowly spiraling further down and down in the NFL quality teams list.  There is just so much commotion going on there that they can’t seem to concentrate on winning football games.  They may have a shot to pull this one off, but the spread is too high I believe for them to cover.

Buccaneers @ Falcons -8.5

Apparently Raheem Morris thinks the Bucs are the best team in the NFL.  I think he’s out of his mind honestly.  The Falcons are a much better team than the Bucs but this spread is quite high that I don’t think they will cover for some reason.  Just a gut feeling.

Patriots -4.5 @ Browns

Seems like everyone is jumping on the Patriots bandwagon as being the best team in the NFL.  I’m almost ready to believe it as they improved last week in their performance as when they played the Chargers two weeks back.  The Browns won’t let them just run over them as the Mangenius has a hatred towards Bill and the Pats since his Jets days.

Bears -3 @ Bills

I cannot believe I’m saying this but I really do believe the Bills actually have a chance at winning this game.  The last couple weeks for them have really shown that they are not just lying down, as Fitzpatrick really has sparked the line-up.  Maybe if they get CJ Spiller involved more, they can start putting some W’s up.  They are still garbage, but not as much anymore.

Giants -7 @ Seahawks

The Giants are the best team in the NFC, but that is because no one is competing ad they should in that league, although the Packers are slowly creeping up.  I still hate Eli and he is still not a better QB then Philip Rivers.  All hatred aside, they’ll take the Seahawks here in a tough game.

Colts @ Eagles -3

The Colts surged against the Texans last week in almost a must win for them to keep pace in the AFC South, however the return of Vick to Philly after a bye will be huge for them.  The Eagles will also return Jackson and have their powerful 1-2 threat at QB/WR that led to major points for them early in the season. 

Chiefs @ Raiders -2.5

The Chiefs and Raiders both have a lot to play for this week as they both have a legitimate shot at being first place in the AFC West.  The Raiders are on such a hot streak that don’t be surprised to see them score another 30-something points this game to tie the Chiefs for first.

Cowboys @ Packers -7.5

Wow this is really surprising, the Cowboys suck.  At this point in the season they may be more garbage then the Bills, especially with Kitna at QB.  It seems like he hasn’t played football in about 10 years the way he’s been playing.  I don’t think the Boys have any chance at winning any games the rest of the year without Romo unless their running game magically decides to show up now.

Steelers -4.5 @ Bengals

This is going to be a big rebound game for the Steelers.  The Bengals have been another disappointing team this year, although Owens and Ocho are both having pretty good years.  That aside, look for the Steelers to get back on track this week.

Lock of the Week: Pittsburgh Steelers
