Trust Me This Week

Hey Peeps and anyone else checking in. A special "Hey" goes out to Hazel Mae.

Ok, last week's NFL picks were bad...really bad; but who knew there would be so many damn shockers? Here are my picks for the Straight-Up Pool - I promise, I will be better than last week's picks...it couldn't be any worse.

13) INDIANAPOLIS over Washington - Colts coming off a bye week and the Redskins are coming off a loss to Vince Young and the Titans...the Skins' season is over, but Manning will pretty much make it official on Sunday.

12) Jacksonville over HOUSTON - Jacksonville is also coming off a bye week - their rested defence is going to make David Carr's afternoon long and painful.

11) New England over BUFFALO - Buffalo is spiralling downward, their offence can't score and their defence can't stop anyone...not what you want to have when Tom Brady comes to town.

10) SEATTLE over Minnesota - Seattle is almost unbeatable at home...Brad Johnson is going to have a tough time with the 12th man in Seattle.

09) Philadelphia over TAMPA BAY - I still think the Eagles are counterfeit, but they have a creampuff this weekend against a rookie QB who is going to spend a good part of his day on his can.

08) Denver over CLEVELAND - the Broncos didn't over-extend themselves against the Raiders, they'll have enough in the tank to get it done this weekend.

07) San Diego over KANSAS CITY - Sorry Hazel. I can't see the Chargers letting up in this one - their defence will shutdown Larry Johnson and leave it in the hands of Huard - bad news for K.C. and Hazel.

06) Arizona over OAKLAND - I think Matt Leinhart has a big day on Sunday - the Kurt Warner experiment is over. They had better win, or Dennis Green is going to have a heart attack.

05) DALLAS over NY Giants - Hi...have you been here before?

04) NY Jets over Detroit - The Jets are finding ways to get it done - the Lions have done it a grand total of once this year over a struggling Bills team.

03) Carolina over CINCINNATI - The Panthers' D is one of the best in the league and will keep them in this one. Cincinnati is looking vulnerable these days.

02) ATLANTA over Pittsburgh - the heat is off the Steelers and on the Falcons - expect Ron Mexico to pull a great game out of his hat and win it.

01) Green Bay over Miami - The Dolphins are a mess right now, Favre might pull this one out - it is a winable game for the Packers.

That's it gang...your NFL picks for this week. Have a great night peeps!

Hazel, I hope things are groovy in your world.

Song of the Night on Hazelspeeps - for my pal (I hope) Renee...

People are People - Depeche Mode

So were different colours - And were different creeds
And different people - Have different needs
Its obvious you hate me - Though Ive done nothing wrong
Ive never even met you - So what could I have done

Peesth Out...Buh Bye!
