Mike’s NFL Picks 2007 Week 8
By Mike | October 26, 2007
You know the drill. Here are my picks. They probably suck. Feel free to bet against me and prosper.
Cleveland Browns -3 at St. Louis Rams - Browns. No contest.
Detroit Lions +5.5 at Chicago Bears - I’m going to keep picking against the Bears. That way even if they lose, at least I picked right. Plus I don’t think they’re very good.
Indianapolis Colts -7 at Carolina Panthers - I think this would be closer if the Panthers had a more stable QB situation. So I’m going to have to take Indy.
New York Giants -10 at Miami Dolphins (in London) - The New York Football Giants should have no problem with this game. And they better do well because my fantasy team depends on it.
Oakland Raiders +7 at Tennessee Titans - Hey look, I haven’t picked a home team yet. I like the Raiders plus the points in this one. I’m just not sold on the Titans yet.
Philadelphia Eagles -1 at Minnesota Vikings - Maybe I’ll take all road teams this week. I think the Eagles will pull this one out. Although the Vikings beat the Bears at home, who Beat the Eagles at home who should therefore lose to the Vikings. I’m still taking the Eagles. This season hasn’t made much sense yet. Why start now?
Pittsburgh Steelers -4 at Cincinnati Bengals - I really expected more out of the Bengals this year, and not much out of the Steelers, but it really hasn’t worked out that way. Steelers should win this one, no problem. And I expect them to cover as well.
Buffalo Bills +3 at New York Jets - And I’m going to break my all road team streak on the Jets of all teams. I just don’t think Buffalo is very good and it shouldn’t take much to beat them. Lucky for the Jets because they don’t have much. Still they’ll win by at least three.
Houston Texans ?? San Diego Chargers - There aren’t any odds posted at the moment. I guess that has to do with the fires and the uncertainty about when or where the game will be played. I’d probably take the Chargers, but I’ll skip this game this week, unless I check back later and there are posted odds.
Jacksonville Jaguars +4 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers - I think Jacksonville wins this straight up, but I’ll take the points if you’re giving them.
New Orleans Saints -3 at San Francisco 49ers - I’m not real sure about this one, but I’ll take the Niners +3 at home.
Washington Redskins +17 at New England Patriots - As I’ve said for the past few weeks, sooner or later some one is going to have to come within 17 points of the Pats, but until it happens I’m not picking against them. Maybe if they play the Colts.
Green Bay Packers +3 at Denver Broncos - Which Denver team shows up this week? The one that got killed by the Chargers, or the one that ran over the Steelers? I’m hoping the later, but I doubt it. Green Bay goes into Denver and comes out with the win.
