I am back with my NFL Picks after being laid up for a week. I went 11-3 on Week 4, thus bumping my record up to 43-18 overall.
Houston Texans @ Cincinnati Bengals
This game will be fun. Houston needs to pass to win, while the Bengals key to victory will be running the ball effectively. I can't see this being a high scoring affair, because both teams need this, but it could be.
Texans 27 Bengals 24
Detroit Lions @ Green Bay Packers
If the Lions are smart, they will sit Matthew Stafford this week. With their bye week approaching the following week, they can rely on Culpepper. Green Bay will be hungry, so no reason to risk the future.
Packers 34 Lions 17
Saint Louis Rams @ Jacksonville Jaguars
The Rams need some good news, but the exclusion of Rush Limbaugh from prospective ownership may be about it right now. The Jaguars are at a crossroads, so head coach Jack Del Rio needs them ready.
Jaguars 34 Rams 14
Baltimore Ravens @ Minnesota Vikings
The Ravens can stop the run, but can they run it against the Vikings? I like the Minnesota secondary a little better at the end of the day.
Vikings 21 Ravens 17
New York Giants @ New Orleans Saints
Game Of The Week
This matchup has a little of everything. The Jints keep winning despite a beat up secondary. The Saints have won despite an inconsistent running attack. Both teams are a bit healthier, and seeking balance on Sunday. Jeremy Shockey will be looking to beat his former team, and the Saints hope Pierre Thomas is ready to carry the load. The Giants have a balanced offensive attack that could give New Orleans fits. It will be fun to watch.
Saints 45 Giants 41
Cleveland Browns @ Pittsburgh Steelers
Well, Derek Anderson is the better quarterback as I had stated long ago. The problem with Anderson finally getting Cleveland a win is that he now has to face a Steelers team trying to stay in the upper echelon in the league. Pittsburgh wants this one bad.
Steelers 31 Browns 10
Carolina Panthers @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tampa Bay has an exciting young quarterback named Josh with a bright future. Too bad they wasted their pick on Freeman, because I am referring to Johnson. JJ likes throwing to the tight end, especially Winslow. I don't like what the Panthers have trying to stop this connection.
Buccaneers 24 Panthers 21
Kansas City Chiefs @ Washington Redskins
The battle for the first pick in the draft. Who quits first? It won't be Washington for once.
Redskins 24 Chiefs 17
Philadelphia Eagles @ Oakland Raiders
JaMarcus Russell has more flashes of incompetence than ability. I'm not quite ready to label him a bust, but he might be called damaged goods by seasons end.
Eagles 45 Raiders 17
Arizona Cardinals @ Seattle Seahawks
Seattle has had two weeks where its defense has been excellent, but the Seahawks are far from consistent. Arizona needs to treat this like a playoff game.
Cardinals 31 Seahawks 27
Tennessee Titans @ New England Patriots
Times are tough for the Titans. Looks like my predicting them last place in their division is looking more solid. The Patriots are still looking for their stride, but the talent still carries them to victory.
Patriots 27 Titans 16
Buffalo Bills @ New York Jets
Buffalo's no huddle offense is a flop. They need to ditch it. The Jets are seeing blood after being embarrassed last week on national television.
Jets 30 Bills 13
Chicago Bears @ Atlanta Falcons
The Bears have a real chance to explore a suspect Falcons secondary. The team that runs the ball will win this game.
Bears 34 Falcons 28
Denver Broncos @ San Diego Chargers
Denver was 4-1 last year when they faced a 2-3 Chargers team. San Diego won that game. History will repeat.
Chargers 34 Broncos 20
