What a long week to belong to the Redskin Nation. That was an embarrassing loss that can only be erased with a win this week against Philthy. Besides the home team let- down, Denver and St. Louis continue to impress, while it\u2019s the same ole same ole for the Vikes, Pack, Lions, Browns and Titans. Thanks to the 9ers for handing the Bucs a conference loss. Also special thanks for all the well wishes on the latest addition to the Texas Hog family. Everyone is doing great!<\/p>\n
Cincinnati at Baltimore <\/b>
\nJamal Lewis continues to run like he doesn\u2019t want to get hurt and even went so far as to say so.
\nPick \u2013 Bengals<\/p>\n
Tennessee at Cleveland <\/b>
\nAs hard as it is to pick the Browns, I have to pick them at home and with the better defense.
\nPick \u2013 Browns<\/p>\n
Houston at Jacksonville <\/b>
\nThe Texans still stink.
\nPick \u2013 Jags<\/p>\n
Oakland at Kansas City <\/b>
\nThis is always an easy pick. The Faiders never win in KC. Look for Holmes and Larry Johnson to have a big day rushing.
\nPick \u2013 Chiefs<\/p>\n
Atlanta at Miami <\/b>
\nThis is probably the toughest pick of the week. The Fish could pull off the upset, but I like the Falcon defense and running game.
\nPick \u2013 Falcons<\/p>\n
Detroit at Minnesota <\/b>
\nThis is the surprise pick of the week. At home and with Brad Johnson at the helm, look for the Vikes to win a close one. Plus, Harrington may start.
\nPick \u2013 Vikes<\/p>\n
San Diego at New York Jets <\/b>
\nThe Jets have the 30th ranked rush defense. Look for LT and the rest of the Charger offense to have a big day and put up a bunch of points.
\nPick \u2013 Chargers<\/p>\n
Carolina at Tampa Bay <\/b>
\nThe Panther\u2019s rushing defense will force Simms to beat them. It won\u2019t happen.
\nPick \u2013 Panthers<\/p>\n
Seattle at Arizona <\/b>
\nAlexander will continue his dominance over the Cards and pad his stats, helping his campaign for a new (well deserved) contract. The Hawks continue to roll.
\nPick \u2013 Seahawks<\/p>\n
Chicago at New Orleans <\/b>
\nHaslett said it best \u2013 they\u2019re a bad football team.
\nPick \u2013 Bears<\/p>\n
New York Giants at San Francisco <\/b>
\nThe 9ers will be starting their fourth-string QB. At least they\u2019ll have an excuse if they get shut out and flat out spanked!
\nPick \u2013 Giants<\/p>\n
Pittsburgh at Green Bay <\/b>
\nRoethlisberger is hobbled but will surely play, and he and the Steelers will, as usual, play just well enough to win.
\nPick \u2013 Steelers<\/p>\n
Philadelphia at Washington <\/b>
\nAs bad as Philthy is playing, it\u2019s still hard to find a reason to pick the Skins. Who besides me will hate hearing N.D. Kalu\u2019s name over and over, with Samuel\u2019s being out or at least hobbled? The Skins have lost 3 of their last 4 and haven\u2019t beaten the Eagles since 11\/25\/01 (seven in a row). That doesn\u2019t change Sunday.
\nPick \u2013 Philthy<\/p>\n
Indianapolis at New England <\/b>
\nThink the Colts will be fired up for his one? The Colts will finally get their win over the Pats. Their first since October 2000.
\nPick \u2013 Colts<\/p>\n
Last Week\u2019s Results:<\/b>\t 9-5
\nSeason To Date:<\/b>\t70-46<\/p>\n
