Weidman's Picks, Week 13

(Click here to see current NFL Pick Em Standings -- week-by-week and YTD.)

I had a really good week last week, but I unfortunately dropped a swing game to Keller. Not looking good for me down the stretch, but I'm gonna soldier on. I have a feeling Keller's gonna drop all his games this week and make me Supreme Awesome Guy.

Philly at Seattle
Yet another birdie fight for the season, and once again, it's two kinda crappy teams. The Dream Team is favored, but I don't care - Philly chokes in important matchups, they're traveling across the country and Seattle is at home.

Jets at Skins
Skins are just kinda limping along now, and the Jets are still playing for something. Despite being on the road, they've got this one.

Chiefs at Bears
Despite winning, we really let the Chiefs off the hook last week. Now way that game should have been that close. Word is, Palko is still getting the start even though they have Orton now. Given that, being on the road and the fact that the Bears are a much better team, KC loses this one decisively.

Titans at Bills
Too close to call. I like the Bills in this game, but it's still not that simple. When in doubt, take the home team.

Oakland at Miami
Okay, Miami is actually favored in this one, and I think that mainly has to do with them being at home and having a good record against Oakland. The important thing to remember is that they're still Miami. They're terrible, and Oakland is a strong force in their division riding a winning streak.

Bungles at Steelers
Okay, the Steelers are heavily favored in this one, and I think that mainly has to do with them being at home and having a good record against Oakland. The important thing to remember is that they're still the Steelers. They play down to the level of their opponents, and the Bungles are very good this season...but they're still the Steelers and this is a must-win game for them in front of a home crowd. Win, yes. Ass-stomping, no.

Falcons at Texans
I'm gonna flip a coin here. *flip* Crap. It landed on its edge. Well, I took the home team above, so I'll take the road team here.

Broncos at Vikings
No coin flip here, but it's still going to be close. The Vikings are at home, but this week's theme is remembering who teams are - and they're still the Vikings.

Panthers at Bucs.
The Panthers won last week. Yippie for them. Against the Colts. No yippie for me and my pick. This week, the Bucs will win one for my honor.

Colts at Pats.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA *deep breath, sip of water* BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ahem

Pats
.

Ravens at Browns
There's one irrelevant team in our division, and that's the Browns. They do like to play to ruin other teams' seasons, but it won't happen this week. Baltimore smells blood in the water and they're not going to drop a division game if they can help it.

Pack at New York Football Giants
Pack keeps a'rollin, all season long.

Cowboys at Steelers West
Cards' season is over. You know it, I know it, they know it. Instead of playing for pride, I think they're playing for next season now.

Rams at Niners
You don't even need to look at the line to know that this is the second most obvious game of the week.

Detroit at Saints
With Ndamukong Suh* doing his best James Harrison impression, Detroit is on the road without a key player, and NOLA is undefeated at home. Lions have been good on the road, but missing that key piece of their defense and the Saints being unstoppable at home...yeah, it's the Saints in this one.
*Why, yes, I copy-and-pasted his name. Thank you for asking.


Chargers at Jags
Hmm...boring MNF game. The Jags are the lesser team, and they just lost their coach. Chargers are coming in and spanking them.

Seattle over Philly
Jets over Skins
Bears over Chiefs
Bills over Titans
Oakland over Miami
Steelers over Bungles
Falcons over Texans
Broncos over Vikings
Bucs over Panthers
Pats over Colts
Ravens over Browns
Pack over New York Football Giants
Cowboys over Steelers West
Niners over Rams
Saints over Detroit
Chargers over Jags
