My Official Green Bay Packer Blog

Jac @ Chi
Hou @ Packers - I’m not feeling great about a 6 point spread with a team with it’s current track record, but the Texans don’t have too many weapons.  Playing on guts alone probably won’t get it done in 15 degree weather.  Gotsta have skeelz.
Atl @ NO - The Saints provied against the Packers that they’re a really good team.  I think, better than the dirty birds.
Cle @ Ten
Phi @ Nyg
Cin @ Ind
Min @ Det - The Lions can’t do anything right. Including the perfect season in reverse.
Mia @ Buf
Nyj @ Sf
Kc @ Den
NE @ Sea
Stl @ Ari - Damn.  14 point spread?  ‘Zona can put points on the board.  Hopefully it’ll be a lot.
Dal @ Pit
Was @ Bal
TB @ Car

New blog theme update:  I have the new theme coded into a static html page that renders perfectly in IE7 and FF2, but looks stupid in IE6.  So I’m still tweaking.

Well my friends, we’re getting into the pumpkin pie of the NFL regular season; most of the meal has been eaten, but you’ve still left room for some late dinner awesomeness.  Last week? 8-7.  This week?  Put all your chips in.

Winners are BOLD. All picks are against the spread.  Man’s game.

PHI @ BAL
NYJ @ TEN - After the Packers took the Titans to overtime, I hate picking Favre to break the Titans unbeaten streak. But somebody’s gotta do it, and the Jets are H-O-T-T Hot-Hot-Hot
TB @ DET - Detroit’s been good at covering big spreads.  This one’s only 7 points, but maybe this is their week.
MIN @ JAC - NFC North implications, otherwise who cares?
BUF @ KC - Who cares.
CHI @ STL - St. Louis has a shot with Jackson in the lineup, without him they’re just a bunch of toofless lions.  Lions that can’t even say toof right.  ‘Cause they have no teef.
NE @ MIA - Don’t expect a repeat of week 3 when Miami crushed the Pats.
SF @ DAL - Even with a QB who’s throwing the football like he’s holding a tea cup, Dallas has enough to dispatch the Niners.
HOU @ CLE - Who cares.
OAK @ DEN - Big rivalry.  Not.  Who cares.
CAR @ ATL
NYG @ ARI - Looking forward to this one.
WAS @ SEA - If the ‘Skins don’t win it, Zorn’s early hype was unjustified.
IND @ SD - If the Bolts were as hot as their cheerleaders this would be over by halftime.  But they aren’t, Norv Turner’s still in charge of the Bolts, and it’s a big game.  What I like about this team is that they can collapse down so nice and tight that you can fit them in your back pocket.  Why yes!  That IS a football team in my pocket, not some misshapen, limp thingy.
GB @ NO - The Saints are getting less than the customary 3 point spread for home field advantage, which means the odds makers expect this game to be tight.

PHI @ CIN - Philly’s giving nine, but my Magic 8-ball says they’re gonna roll after getting punched in the face last week.
BAL @ NYG
DEN @ ATL - I keep waiting for the Falcons to come back to earth. Broncos can’t fly, so I don’t expect them to be able to do the job.
OAK @ MIA - Last year this would have been the Battle for the Basement. This year? Just a notch in a dolphin-skin belt.
HOU @ IND - Feelin’ good at home after a good roadie to Pittsburgh
NO @ KC - Herm Edwards has all the guys wearing T-shirts that say Refuse to Lose. The itchy Chinese fibers work against Edwards and the Chiefs, lose again.
CHI @ GB - The perfect matchup - Chicago’s great run defense against a shitty running game, and a crap Bear secondary against a receiver corps with all the tools. It’s a big game, so expect McCarthy to stick a hypodermic full of laughing juice in his brain and decide to resurrect the Ryan Grant “Run Straight Into the Pile” ground game. You might also expect to see a circle path word around the turf at McCarthy’s feet as Lovey Smith again out-thinks the Packer coaches. Yeah, I picked the Packers to win. I took a hit from McCarthy’s juice bottle.
MIN @ TB - The Bucs do what the Packers couldn’t.
DET @ CAR - I don’t think Detroit covered last week, but they’ve tended to do well against big-ass spreads. Like that girl Rhonda I dated tears ago. Big, had the spread, and I did pretty well.
STL @ SF - Expect a dancing, naked chorus line from the Singletary staff if the Niners are losing at halftime.

ARI @ SEA
TEN @ JAC - Why do I think DelRio will be able to get his guys ready for a game as big as this? Because I’m not very good at making picks, that’s why.
SD @ PIT
DAL @ WAS - Payback.
CLE @ BUF - oops! Forgot this one.
