Keller and I tied last week at 9-4, but it really should have been a higher tie. A few teams came from behind and pulled off upsets that shouldn't have happened. But hey, thems the breaks, right? Now, on to week six.
Buffalo at Giants
Okay, Giants are at home and favored (probably because of it), but the Bills are going to pull it off.
Colts at Bungles
Did you ever thing you'd see the day where the Bungles are the easy pick over the Colts? I sure didn't. But I also didn't think that I'd have gone months without seeing Peyton hawking TVs and credit cards, but there you have it.
Jags at Steelers
I realize that Keller has no faith in the Steelers this season - I mean, he picked the Titans last week - but this is another easy call. Steelers are at home, the Jags suck this year and we're gonna see a W this weekend.
Eagles at Redskins
Sometimes I don't know what Vegas is thinking. Eagles haven't shown anything of value overall this season, Washington's at home and Sexy Rexy has only dropped one game this season - yet somehow, The Dream Team is favored. This one is going to the Redskins.
Niners at Detroit
It's a topsy-turvy world that makes my first tough call of the week be "who's gonna win, Niners or Detroit." Okay, it wasn't that hard - I think the Lions are going to win at least one more week.
Rams at Pack
If you're reading my blog post to make your decision on this game...I don't know what to tell you. Maybe pick 'ems aren't for you.
Panthers at Falcons
Not much good to say about either team. If anything, the Falcons are a hair better and are at home. Take the home team.
Browns at Raiders
I hate, hate, hate the term, "they're better than their record," but...the Raiders are better than their record. The Browns are...the Browns. I'm also sure that the Raiders are still going to riding a high of winning one for the Gipper (Davis), so I see them pulling it off.
Texans at Ravens
I know I've picked a lot of home teams this week, and I promise that I'm not being lazy, but I need to pick them again. These are the two teams that trounced us this year, and they're both very, very good. However, the Ravens are better.
Saints at Bucs
See? Not the home team. Not to belittle the Bucs, but the Saints are still a Super Bowl-worthy team and the Bucs aren't right now.
Cowboys at Pats
Aaaaaaand, back to form. Home team is going to win here, because it's Brady. And he's at home. And the Cowboys are pretty 'meh.' It's going to be a win for New England, not by a little bit.
Vikings at Bears
As I've said, the Bears have looked shaky best this year, but the Vikings have looked far, far worse. Sure, they're coming off a big win last week, but...they're still the Vikings.
Dolphins at Jets
Might as well finish the home-team love strong and go with the Jets here. They're angry about losing last week to the Pats, and now that they're home and playing cream-puffs, I figure they're going to work out some frustrations.
