It’s time for the league’s leading rusher to square off against the league’s best defense. I believe the last time that happened we hung 208 yards on Philadelphia but they were selling out to keep Moss from making an impact. I think the Steelers have to flip the script and stuff the box, so hopefully Campbell can carry the offense, which could be very hard if Santana has to sit. Honestly I think the Redskins are lucky to be 6-2, they’re not really that good, so this game against the Steelers is going to be a real test. They could be that good if they’d stop floundering in the red zone with penalties and botched plays but they really haven’t shown any signs that they’re taking care of it. Everyone remembers the Lions were 6-2 last year right? Gotta keep it together. Win or lose the skins really need the bye next week, it seems like everybody is banged up.
First time this season my picks go positive, 7-5 for the week, 28-35 this season.
Dallas (+9) at New York Giants – I know the cowboys are struggling but offensively the Giants have looked like garbage the last two weeks, I don’t think they cover.
Buffalo (-5.5) over Jets – Buffalo needs to win by less than a single Jett Favre Snakedown? No question.
Detroit (+12.5) at Chicago – I know Neckbeard is looking hot but that’s a awful big line and the Lions have actually been competitive the last two weeks.
Jax (-7.5) at Nasty Natty – Like Drew with the Rams, I pick against Natty until it burns me. Hasn’t yet.
Ravens (+1.5) at Cleveland – I bet on the Browns upset last week and it paid off but I don’t think they know how to win two in a row.
Greenbay (+4.5) over Tennessee – I think GB coming off a bye hands the Titans their first loss in a upset.
Kansas City (+9) over Tampa Bay – Tampa’s offense is not so hot, I like the Chiefs to be able to cover at home.
St. Louis (+3) over Arizona – We all know the Cardinals can’t win on the East coast. St. Louis is closer to the right coast than the wrong coast, so I give it to the Rams.
Texans (+4.5) at Vikings – Why are the Vikings favored in this game? The Texans are a better team.
Denver (-3) over Miami – Porous pass defense can still shut down Pennington… right?
Atlanta (-3) at Oakland – Oakland sucks, what can I say. Atlanta should’ve covered (or won) against the Eagles last week but the refs fucked them hard.
Philadelphia (-7) at Seattle – Seahawks also suck, Eagles can beat them without Zebra assistance.
New England (+6) at Indy – That’s a huge line against a winning team visiting a losing team. Curious.
Washington (-1.5) over Pittsburg – I really thought the Steelers would’ve been the favorites here, I guess they’re giving us home field advantage despite the fact that the steelers have played better on the road all year.
