back by unpopular demand...
KC @ MIAMI : (KC)
if ricky williams even lived up to half the hype surrounding him miami would go undefeated for the next 5 seasons. fortunately, there's nothing too it. he's just another running back that had some good games in college, and is a shadow of his former self.
plus the game got bumped up as miami team members and residents prepares to get out of town.
NEW ORLEANS @ ST. LOUIS : (NEW ORLEANS)
bulger's banged up and the st. louis is yet to find something that works. new orleans cut close last week even without their offensive stars. this week, they pull it off.
GREEN BAY @ MINNESOTA : (GREEN BAY)
minnesota's a mess right now. brett farve still plays for green bay and really hates losing.
SAN DIEGO @ PHILLY : (SAN DIEGO)
the chargers keep on rolling as the eagles spin their wheels.
SAN FRAN @ WASHINGTON : (WASHINGTON)
the nfc east is proving to be a very competitive division this year with all 4 teams (NYG, DAL, WAS, PHI) emerging as playoff contenders. fortunately for washington, this game is against an nfc west team.
PITTSBURGH @ CINCINNATI : (PITTSBURGH)
cincinnati are the sports media golden boys right now, but they'll buckle under the weight of a real team that just suffered a devastating embarrassment on their home turf. with or without big ben.
INDY @ HOUSTON : (INDY)
those calling for a big upset here will just be very upset at the outcome.
DETROIT @ CLEVELAND : (DETROIT)
two middle of the road teams battling it out for the right to be taken seriously. shocking fact, at 2-3, detroit is tied with chicago at the top of the nfc north. both teams can go hot or cold at the drop of at hat. but the pressure is on for harrington this week. he'll respond as if his career depends on it.
DALLAS @ SEATTLE : (SEATTLE)
nightclub drama and murder aside, the cowboys get outgunned this week on seattle's home turf.
BUFFALO @ OAKLAND : (BUFFALO)
the raiders have been a running joke in the nfl for over 2 decades, but nobody's caught on until this season. but for some reason the bills have always struggled against them, especially on the road. with moss out, the raiders focus shifts to their running game and a yard-hungry lamont jordan. exactly the test that the bills defense needs right now. if they can pass that test, they can win the game. mcgahee's newly announced quest to be the no.1 back in the league won't hurt things either. watch for a ground war.
DENVER @ NEW YORK GIANTS : (NEW YORK GIANTS)
if denver can pull this off, i'll stop picking them to lose every week. they'll wear the afc crown soon enough, but they need to learn how to play all 4 quarters first.
TENNESSEE @ ARIZONA : (ARIZONA)
arizona really isn't THAT bad. tennessee is.
BALTIMORE @ CHICAGO : (CHICAGO)
baltimore winning 2 in a row? not this season. chicago keeps the glorious nfc north for another week at .500.
NEW YORK JETS @ ATLANTA : (ATLANTA)
vick's back in front of the home crowd on monday night. vinny won't be able to hear a thing over the roar in the georgia dome. after this game, he'll wish he wasn't able to see either.
