The Buzz:
Local: Tigers are up 2-1 vs. the A's. Josh Reddick cries just as much as the Packers. The Lions are 1-3 and headed for disaster.
National: Biggest game this week if the rematch between the Niners and the Giants. The Giants are a superior playoff team to almost everyone else in the NFL, but they barely rise above suck level in the regular season. Niners win.
BIGGEST WINNERS -
Detroit Tigers - Why not. It's the local slant. Someone has to stick up for the little guy.
Detroit Lions - What is it with our OC? Lose all the calls used in quarters 1-3 and keep whatever it was that was called in the 4th. Literally, every single Lions game comes down the last few seconds of the 4th quarter. Crazy.
The city of Detroit, and state of MI in general - Let's just go all the way with this. Lions win, Tigers win x 2, Michigan wins, Sparty loses. Can't ask for a better weekend than that fans.
Seattle Seahawks - The best QB in the West had his coming out party vs. the Pats. Incredible. The West is up for grabs for just about anyone to take.
NY Giants - Statement win. Whatever they did, that's the blueprint moving forward for beating the Niners.
Green Bay Packers - First ever team to appear in both the winner and losers list. Great win over the Texans. I guess this means the Pack is cool w the refs now?
NY Jets - Of course I had Shon Greene on my bench this week.
Cleveland Browns - First W of the year and it comes against their biggest rivals. Every year this is the Browns Super Bowl.
Buffalo Bills - The Bills get hammered on a lot around here. This week they get some praise for beating a bi-polar AZ team.
Washington Redskins - Big W over a hot Vikes team. RG3 looks like he is what he is. Some weeks the focus will be on the bad hits, turnovers and injuries he takes and other weeks it will be about the great plays he makes to win games. This week it was about the great plays he makes to win games.
BIGGEST LOSERS -
Green Bay Packers - Gonna go ahead and put these big babies here right now for publically stating "the refs are out to get us." What an awful representation of a sports team. I'd rather be 1-3 than have players claiming delusional conspiracy theories. Here is the Packers code of dishonor:
1) If we lose, we didn't lose to the opponent. We beat ourselves and we are still the better team.
2) The refs are out to get us.
3) If we win everything is cool.
AZ Cardinals - If this team has a legit QB they would probably still be unbeaten. If I was the Cards GM, I'd seriously consider doing whatever it takes to secure one in the first round of next years draft.
KC Chiefs - When I was a kid, the Chiefs were really cool with Christian Okoye, the Nigerian Nightmare. Now they are the most insignificant team in the league.
WASP TRAP LOCK OF THE WEEK: Niners will beat the Giants as much as I hate to say it. If they meet again in the playoffs, I'll probably pick the Giants then. Niners 31-21
In an added WTLOTW (so to touch on more than a couple of games) As we all know, the Hawks are a different team at home and the Pats are already 0-1 vs. the NFC West. With that said, I'll take the Patriots to win a tough game in a tough stadium vs. Seattle.
TAKES IT ON THE CHIN: 3-4 Should have gone w gut and taken Hawks. I've had a cosmic connection to them all season. I was wrong to doubt my powers. Never again!
Added bonus BOLD ass prediction of the week: Double Trouble: Fish over Rams 21-17 and Vikes move to 5-0 over Skins 17-13.
A SPLIT: 4-2
MNF Predictions - Phillip Rivers loves playing Peyton Manning. Chargers 38 Broncos 31
current record: 4-0
