Compared to last week’s football games, this week looks on paper like a bit of a letdown. I’m sure some upsets might happen, but it looks like some football teams will have it easy this week. Last week I’d rather not talk about.
Last Week: 5-9
Season: 30-16
Arizona Cardinals vs Atlanta Falcons
The Falcons got [...]

Looks like the Madden Curse will continue. Coverboy Shaun Alexander is out with a broken foot, and the Seattle Seahawks need to regroup. They are going to have to find good luck charm. Madden Curse, Super Bowl Jinx, that’s a lot to overcome

Last week, I was on fire with my picks. Granted, it wasn’t the hardest week to pick, but still 14-2. Well, this week of football is going to be tougher to pick, since a lot of strong football teams are on the road. There are some major divisional matchups.
Last Week: 14-2
Year: 25-7

Prediction time. Usually Week 1 isn’t a good guide line for future picks. Things change, injuries start to mount. Some football teams with playoff aspirations need wins this week. I’m happy with my picks last week, 11-5 in week one. Not bad, and I even got some upsets.
Oakland Raiders vs [...]

For anyone who saw the hit yesterday, the Chiefs football season could be in trouble. Trent Green got blasted yesterday, and needed to get carted off the football field. I have to say, that’s one of the hardest hits I’ve seen in a while.
A bad opening day in many regards, the Green injury [...]

The Patriots finally found a way to get rid of Deion Branch. The talented wide receiver has wanted out of New England for the last few months. The Seattle Seahawks traded a 2007 first round pick for Branch.
Deion Branch is a former Super Bowl MVP. The Patriots have been losing a lot [...]

The long wait is over, now its time to watch some football. A little part of me is missing when there is no football. Now that I’m complete, on to some football picks.
Miami Dolphins vs Pittsburgh Steelers
The loss of Ben Roethlisberger is huge for a team that lost Jerome Bettis. The Dolphins [...]

Vijay Singh entered today with a three shot lead over Tiger Woods. Tiger erased that lead pretty early with an eagle and a birdie. Once Tiger gets a share of the lead, he doesn’t give it up. The sad part for Vijay was he didn’t play, Tiger is just on another [...]

Big Ben Roethlisberger’s health is still a problem. This summer he had a near fatal motorcycle accident. Now, he had an emergency appendectomy. Charlie Batch will start against the Dolphins on Thursday. With Hines Ward questionable, the defending champions look like they might get their season off on the wrong foot.

While to most the heavyweight division has fallen on hard times, at least more fights are being fought than usual. James Toney is the most skilled fighter in the division, while Samuel Peter has perhaps the most power. Styles make fights, the counter-puncher vs the puncher. For Toney this might have been his [...]

While the AFC has its usual suspects, the NFC is a mixed bag of teams of teams trying to rebound for disappointing years last season, and the playoff teams trying to prove last year wasn’t a fluke. It’s the NFL, anything can happen.
NFC East
Dallas Cowboys 11-5 - Dallas wasn’t that far removed from being [...]
