Well that makes 5 weeks in a row I have either beat all the ESPN experts or tied for first like I did this previous week.

Atlanta at Indianapolis

Boom great game right of the bat. Sure Indy will win, but watching Manning vs Vick is as good as it gets. Colts 31-20

Buffalo at Tennessee

Titans have to win this game or their playoff road gets a little tougher. Buffalo has finally realized how to win games with the team they have ,RUN HENRY. Titans 17-10

Detroit at Kansas City

I feel bad for the Lions, and don't think KC will play at the lesser level of their opponents. Hall will break one against the Lions, but it will be a big day from Trent Green that is the telling story. Chiefs 38-10

Houston at Tampa Bay

Bucs are still alive, barely but alive nonetheless. Texans will compete for a playoff spot next year, unfortunately for them it's still 2003. Bucs 19-9

Jacksonville at New England

This could actually be a pretty decent game, depends if the Jags O can hang on to the ball. Pats 24-10

Minnesota at Chicago

Jauron has done a great job of getting this bears team to play hard week in and week out. I'm tempted to take the Bears to win this game but just don't see them containing Moss. Vikes 27-20

Pittsburgh at N.Y. Jets

This will be a fun game to watch, look for a high scoring shootout. Jets 31-24

Seattle at St. Louis

I wish with all my heart the Hawks would win as I've become a mini fan of theirs after making a trip to Seattle three years in a row to watch them play. But I'm afraid 1-5 on the road vs 6-0 at home doesn't look to promising. This will be the most entertaining game of the day. Rams 31-27

San Francisco at Cincinnati

Hmmmm, I'm probably the only guy in North America that wishes the Bengals would just go back to being the bungles. Then I wouldn't have to hear about how great Marvin Lewis is (you know, the defensive mastermind who's giving up 23 points a game). And am I the only guy who's noticed these great Bengals have given up more points then they've scored? I hate the Bengal buzz and I'm taking the 49ers strictly out of spite for the media's darlings. Finer 9ers 28-21

Baltimore at Oakland

Do you guys remember when I said this team was a mediocre QB away from competing for the super bowl? Well they've found one. Ravens 24-16

Cleveland at Denver

Everyone's favorite whipping boy Tim Couch vs the coolest team to ever grace a sporting field. Ok I'm biased, but like I've said before the only thing I love more than my Bronco's is my daughter(especially when she has her T.D jersey on). I like Tim Couch and can't wait until he leaves the Browns and goes to San Diego and leads them into the playoffs(just a hunch). My Broncos are simply too good, they have the #2 D in all of football and are probably going to lead the entire NFL in rushing for the 9th year out of the last 10. Not too shabby. How do you win a superbowl? You get homefield, you run the ball well, and you stop the run...oh well 2 out of 3 isn't bad. Broncos 31-13

Carolina at Arizona

Yawn. Panthers avoid the sunburn 24-13

Dallas at Washington

Dallas wins because losing means a locker room circumcision from Dr. Parcells. Boys 21-17

Green Bay at San Diego

L.T vs A.G with D.F and B.F in supporting roles. I'll take L.T with 2 TD's and a side dish of D.B for a 24-20 win. You guys follow that? Chargers dummies

N.Y. Giants at New Orleans

This game pisses me off really bad, for some crazy reason I hold a soft spot for these two underachieving excuses for football teams. Why can't the Saints just listen to me and win the division. Do they not realize by winning last week like I told them to and winning this week coupled with the Hawks loss to the Rams they would be in the driver seat for a wildcard spot. Pisses me off. Saints 31-20

Philadelphia at Miami

Sweet, looks like I'm not going to the gym after work Monday night. This will be a great tough game. The Fish should win, but they must keep the ball on the ground to do so. Fish 24-16

Bulking sucks and I've come to realize I will always be 200lbs http://anabolicfitness.infopop.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I'm with you on all these picks, except i'm gonna go with cincinatti and Green Bay for wins.

Also, I think i'm feeling good on the 'skins winning again. I could care less about all games the skins play as long as they beat the cowboys every time. It's that rivalry thing. Dammit, just give me this one Spurrier.

The dolphins and Eagles should be a good game. If Fiedler plays, i'll go with the Fins, if he doesn't, then i'm going with the Eagles.

nice picks -- I missed the deadline b/c my modem burned out, and I was internetless for a couple of days http://anabolicfitness.infopop.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif

but I would have probably would have picked all winners http://anabolicfitness.infopop.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif

LOL, poor J man. Everyone bailed on him all in one week. I was running around with work and family from out of town and hanging out with my 4 month old daughter and missed it all too. I, like pornosonic, would have picked all the winners too. I also would have kicked a field goal instead of bashing my star running back into the heart of a Cleveland D that was punnishing him all day after he already had 34 carries and a chip shot range especially when he hasn't proven to be anywhere near durable in his short career...but I am not the "Mastermind" so I guess that it must have been a spectacular call good work Mike!!

I guess he liked Elam's chances from 25 yards better than 28 http://anabolicfitness.infopop.net/infopop/emoticons/icon_rolleyes.gif. I think had it been any other head coach Shannon Sharpe probably would have been throwing punches
