Femmefan’s NFL Week Three Picks
Ivette Ricco
How ‘bout that Monday Night game! Now that’s what I call fun.
Here are the picks for week three.
Now that I’ve challenged everyone to beat me in the weekly picks, I guess I should get my butt in gear.
So here are my picks (they will also appear on the Message Board).
Kansas City at Atlanta
One really bad team vs. one really awful team.
Pick Falcons.
Oakland at Buffalo
The Bills look like the real deal, the Raiders look like they’re dysfunctional again.
Pick Bills
Tampa Bay at Chicago
This game should be all about “D” fense. I like Da Bears at home.
Pick Bears
Houston at Tennessee
The Young era has been put on hold. Enter Kerry Collins. The Garrard era seems to have gone slightly off course.
Pick Titans
Carolina at Minnesota
The Jackson era has also been put on hold. Enter Gus Frerrote. The Panthers have Steve Smith back.
Pick Panthers.
Miami at New England
The Pats won’t be the same without Brady, but they can still stomp the snot out of the Fish.
Pick Pats.
Cincinnati at NY Giants
The Bengals are starting to look like the Bungals of years past. Can the paper bags on fans’ heads be far behind? The G-Men are steady as she goes thus far.
Pick Giants
Arizona at Washington
The Cardinals are 2-0 and looking like the cream of the NFC West crop. The Redskins are in the toughest division in the NFL and need to win at home.
Pick Redskins
Detroit at San Francisco
The Niners have anointed JT O’Sullivan the starter and “the man”. They best protect him or they will be looking at starting Shaun Hill if JTO goes down. The Lions are clearly in some trouble. Can Martz and JTO exact revenge on their old team? Yes.
Pick Niners
St. Louis at Seattle
The Rams are struggling and the team’s owner may make a coaching change if things don’t improve. Just don’t expect this to be the week they finally find the end zone.
Pick Seattle
New Orleans at Denver
This could be a very good, high scoring game. Both teams are led by an excellent offense. But which defense will be up to the task? I like the Broncos chances at home.
Pick Broncos
Pittsburg at Philadelphia
Can the Steelers put up the points to keep pace with the Eagles? Or can the Iggles defense stop the Steelers and Rothlisberger?
The Eagles played one whale of a game on Monday night, and although they lost, they showed they have the makings of a NFC championship team. The Steelers are going to go deep into the playoffs and could be the AFC champs. This will be a close game. It’s a coin flip, but I’m taking the home team.
Pick Eagles
Jacksonville at Indianapolis What is up with these two talented teams? They are both struggling and need to win this Sunday. I don’t know that I have much faith in either team right now, but am going with Peyton and the home field. Pick Colts Cleveland at Baltimore
The Browns have talent and should be a good team, but Derek Anderson was a bit off the mark last week. The Ravens have the annual quarterback and offensive issues. But I like the Browns offense with the likes of Braylon Edwards. Pick Browns |
Dallas at Green Bay
Those Cowboys, I hate them. But damn if they don’t have a good team. They really played a great game on Monday night. The Packers have done very well with Aaron Rodgers. What will happen in this game? I like the Cowboys to keep rolling up the yards and scoring the points.
Pick Cowboys
NY Jets at San Diego
The Chargers must win this game! The Jets are doing just okay with Brett Favre
At the helm but the team overall is not nearly as talented as his old team, the Packers.
Pick Chargers.
