NFL Week 13 Picks *Big Game Week*

[Tyche]

Anyone see the ESPN commercial with adam vinitari (i butchered that) walking through the metal detector? Holy shit that was funny.

[Ishido]

New York Giants (7-4) @ Chicago (5-6) I think the Giants will have another season where they perform very well the first half of the season, then fall in to a ditch the second half. Picking Chicago here for the upset; seeing that Chicago's defense is playing a little bit better, seeing that the Bears Adrian Peterson will probably provide Chicago with a running game, and seeing that Grossman isn't flinging the ball in to the air like a moron.

After last week this game could be the battle of which QB can turn it over less. Both teams have proven themselves to be decent at the least, and both QBs have proven themselves able to hand over games to the other team.

I just heard on the radio that Ricky Williams is out for the rest of the season with a chest injury. What a comeback

I think once you shoot and maim a guy, you cease to be a "wanna-be" gangster.

edit: apparently he died.

tough chance of that when that's what some football players were before they were football players (not speaking about Sean Taylor or anyone in particular).

[Kyreth]

Last Redskins game: Sean Taylor out from leg injury. Close game, sad loss.

Next Redskins game: Sean Taylor dead from leg injury. Redskins season officially fucked up beyond belief, "Deadskins" joke takes on painful new meaning.

The trauma is either going to inspire a post-Katrinalike Saints comeback, or they're going to drop to the cellar for the rest of the season.

And yes, he died early this morning from his wounds. Guy apparently was trying to protect his girlfriend and 18-month kid and the intruder shot him, then ran.

people who make that joke need to be shot.

[Norelco]

Can't wait to see the Buffalo game. Edwards is back in the starting positions (bye bye JP) and hopefully Marshawn Lynch will return. It will be interesting to see how Washington plays after the death of Taylor. They're either going to come out like beasts and bury Buffalo while playing on an emotional high or just crumble. My guess it they'll play lights out.

[Tyche]

Of all the games the rest of the year, the game I'm most excited about seeing is the jets vs pats. How many points you think the pats will put on them? 60, 70? You know Belichick is counting the days for revenge.

[Akiyama]

Green Bay (10-1) @ Dallas (10-1)

Detroit (6-5) @ Minnesota (5-6)

Seattle (7-4) @ Philadelphia (5-6)

San Diego (6-5) @ Kansas City (4-7)

New York Jets (2-9) @ Miami (0-11) Keeping the imperfect season dreams alive.

Jacksonville (8-3) @ Indianapolis (9-2) Hopefully Harrison will be back. If not, the game will be even closer.

San Fransisco (3-8) @ Carolina (4-7)

Houston (5-6) @ Tennessee (6-5) Hopefully Haynesworth will be back. If not, I'm flipflopping to Houston.

Atlanta (3-8) @ St. Louis (2-9) Who really cares about this game, yanno?

Buffalo (5-6) @ Washington (5-6) Sad sad day in sports today. D: I won't go on about it, but I'm picking Washington here just because. I hope the emotion will carry them to victory.. at least this week.

Cleveland (7-4) @ Arizona (5-6) Going with Cleveland here in a possible shootout. Who would've thought the 49ers/Cards would be a shootout, especially after earlier this year and that horrid show.

Denver (5-6) @ Oakland (3-8) Oakland will no way win 2 AFC West games in a row.

New York Giants (7-4) @ Chicago (5-6) Going with the Giants. I know, they suck in the second half, but meh.

Tampa Bay (7-4) @ New Orleans (5-6) Tampa Bay here because the Saints really aren't that good. They're just so spotty.

Cincinnati (4-7) @ Pittsburgh (8-3) Cincy can't defend much of anything, I think the Steelers win here.

New England (11-0) @ Baltimore (4-7) I hate Baltimore, so I'm hoping for a blowout.

[Stolin]

lol..That reminds me of another incident. In the early days of football didn't the bears put 80 points on a team when the opposing team's owner insulted the bear's owner's wife or something?

Anyway, I'm hoping for at least 60 points.

[Daahan]

The score will probably be somewhere in the 50's again. NYJ will probably get a field goal or something.

I wonder Belichik will say to Mangina after the game is over

[Tyche]

Green Bay (10-1) @ Dallas (10-1) Just because they have home field.

Detroit (6-5) @ Minnesota (5-6) They get AP back? If not, I still think they win.

Seattle (7-4) @ Philadelphia (5-6) Seattle is a good team and I doubt philli can play 2 outstanding games back to back.

San Diego (6-5) @ Kansas City (4-7) Entirelly too much talent on the chargers to lose.

New York Jets (2-9) @ Miami (0-11) 1-15, jets play spoiler.

Jacksonville (8-3) @ Indianapolis (9-2) The colts...a wild card team??? No.

San Fransisco (3-8) @ Carolina (4-7) I really don't think Carolina is a good team. niners are bad, but they can pull it off

Houston (5-6) @ Tennessee (6-5) What is it, 2TDs and 11 picks over the last 7 games or something? Sophomore slump ftl.

Atlanta (3-8) @ St. Louis (2-9) Yeah, noone cares.

Buffalo (5-6) @ Washington (5-6) Washington, in my opinion, is the best sub .500 team.

Cleveland (7-4) @ Arizona (5-6) Arizona will make the damn playoffs eventually! They can't be so bad for so long. Im still riding this bandwagon

Denver (5-6) @ Oakland (3-8) Revenge for shanahan starting a horrible trend.

New York Giants (7-4) @ Chicago (5-6) Grossman...against the giants D? 2 fumbles, 2 picks, 6 sacks.

Tampa Bay (7-4) @ New Orleans (5-6) Tampa bay, in my opinion, is the most overrated team in the league.

Cincinnati (4-7) @ Pittsburgh (8-3) Gotta pick a wildly stupid upset somewhere.

New England (11-0) @ Baltimore (4-7) Give baltimore a 25 point lead in the first quarter, and it may be close.

I picked, like, completely opposite as akiyama.

[Dense]

I'll take Green Bay in the big game. I like how Dallas is playing, and what they are capable of, but I think the old man Favre is making this his last hurrah before he retires, and that guy can game.

I'm picking Detroit over Minnesota. Yes, homer pick. I don't really have a solid reason, other than not being able to pick against the Lions. I love it how the rest of the NFL fans came over to pick Detroit for a couple of games (mostly following the Denver win), quickly saw what it's like to be a Lions fan, and now have gone back to picking against them. I have to admit, I'd do the same, lol...

Taking Seattle over Philly, as the Eagles have been THE most inconsistent team that I can think of this year (well, next to Detroit, maybe).

SD over KC.
I'm hoping for Jets over Miami, lol.
Indy over Jax
Carolina over SF
Tenn over Houston
Atlanta over Stl
Wash over Buff I agree with the comment "best sub .500 team" when talking about Washington.
Cleveland over Az
Denver over Oakland
Chicago over NYG Gogo Bears playoff hopes.
TB over NO
Pitt over Cinn
NE over Baltimore

[Keno]

Green Bay (10-1) @ Dallas (10-1) If Favre can manage to play like he has been and the GB secondary can shut down TO, this game should be a no brainer.

Detroit (6-5) @ Minnesota (5-6) Adrain Peterson is back + Vikings defense = sad Kitna.

Seattle (7-4) @ Philadelphia (5-6)

San Diego (6-5) @ Kansas City (4-7)

New York Jets (2-9) @ Miami (0-11) Miami is looking like they may get their first win of the season with this game. If theres any team that can blow up like the Dolphins, it's the Jets.

Jacksonville (8-3) @ Indianapolis (9-2) The Colts have been playing sloppy football for the last few games. Expect Payton to throw at least 2 INTs.

San Fransisco (3-8) @ Carolina (4-7)

Houston (5-6) @ Tennessee (6-5)

Atlanta (3-8) @ St. Louis (2-9)

Buffalo (5-6) @ Washington (5-6)

Cleveland (7-4) @ Arizona (5-6)

Denver (5-6) @ Oakland (3-8)

New York Giants (7-4) @ Chicago (5-6) They won't kick to Hester. If Eli can keep it out of the defense's hands this shouldn't be a problem for NY.

Tampa Bay (7-4) @ New Orleans (5-6)

Cincinnati (4-7) @ Pittsburgh (8-3) I'm not sure Cinci's gun slinging will be so effective against Pittsburgh's #1 rated defense.

New England (11-0) @ Baltimore (4-7) ...yawn.

[Akiyama]

I picked, like, completely opposite as akiyama.

And you'll probably be right, rofl. Half of the picks I made were on the whimwtf picks anyway. The Lions aren't too good and with AP back, the Vikings will play even better (even though Chester has played great). I don't see the Packers breaking their curse of Dallas, but going with em anyway. Cardinals/Browns game will be an interesting game of no defense I feel. I'm hoping Miami keeps their beaten streak alive, I don't think TB is the most overrated team, I hate Cincy, and yeah. =P So my picks this week are more sentimental than statistical. Oh well.

[Headspace]

I hate Cincy

Well we hate you too.


and your cakes.

[Keno]

I just want to add that Harris v. Owens is going to be the best match up of the season. I can't wait to watch this game... Does anyone know what resolution the NFL.com streaming broadcasts will be?

[Akiyama]

I hate Cincy

Well we hate you too.


and your cakes.

I know you guys hate me.

I know you love my cakes though.
