We have reached the end of the first quarter of the season. If you have been following along all year then you could very well be sitting at the top of your season-long pool.
Plenty of season left to go though, so let’s keep the momentum going!
Week 5 – HERE WE GO!!!!
(HOME TEAM IN CAPS)
15 – PHILADELPHIA over New York Jets – The Eagles were able to pull out a win giving up over 400 passing yards last week. Now they play the Jets who are close to setting record lows for passing production. See what I’m getting at here?
14 – New England over WASHINGTON – The Steelers, Dolphins, Jets, Bills and now the Redskins…I have no idea how the Patriots have been able to stay undefeated!
13 – LOS ANGELES CHARGERS over Denver – How much longer does John Elway last in the Denver front office?
12 – KANSAS CITY over Indianapolis – After a close call last week, I think the Chiefs are just going to let loose. My BOLD PREDICTION for this week is that PATRICK MAHOMES WILL THROW FOR AT LEAST 450 YARDS.
11 – NEW ORLEANS over Tampa Bay – Jameis Winston had a great game last week…which means he is due for at least 3 INTs this week.
10 – HOUSTON over Atlanta – Looks like this will be an off-year for the Falcons. Going to take a home game against the Dolphins for me to pick them at this point.
9 – TENNESSEE over Buffalo – With the NFL100 clips they have been showing, the number of times I have seen the Music City Miracle makes me not care about these two iterations of the Titans and Bills at all.
8 – Minnesota over NEW YORK GIANTS – I am all aboard the Daniel Jones train…but this will probably be the first bad game he’ll experience. It will be interesting to see how he bounces back next week.
7 – Chicago over OAKLAND – I sent a petition to the league asking for a temporary rule change to allow at least 14 offensive linemen to be on the field for the Raiders at a time for this game … still waiting to hear back.
6 – CAROLINA over Jacksonville – Who knew that one of the most intriguing quarterback matchups of the early season would be Kyle Allen vs Gardner Minshew?
5 –SEATTLE over Los Angeles Rams – I think its safe to say that our streak of solid Thursday Night games will continue this week! (Note – the streak is currently at 1…a three year high)
4 – Baltimore over PITTSBURGH – You can’t play the Bengals every week, Steelers.
3 – Cleveland over SAN FRANCISCO –A solid matchup that wouldn’t look that way a year ago (I feel like I’ll be saying that a lot for both the Browns and the 9ers)
2 – DALLAS over Green Bay – The Packers seem to have the Cowboys number, especially in Dallas, but I’ve got a hunch about this one. But, obviously, not a very strong hunch.
1 – CINCINNATI over Arizona – Welcome to the “If you pick them, put them on the 1-point line” club.
