I have 125 wins in the Pig Skin Pick Em and will toss mine out here since I get spammed by a lot of people that think they are the bomb

I took the Skins on Thursday and was actually worried about that one so Im 1-0 already

Miami at Buffalo=All week I was thinking this could be  Dolphins chance at their 1st win but since I didnt want to lose my lead, I went with the Bills.....Buffalo, 19-16, in an ugly one.....

Dallas at Detroit=Well lets see, the Lions started out 6-2 and the Boys are looking like a Super Bowl team......Hmmmm, let me do a coin flip......LOL, Dallas wins, 38-17, in a game that could be over by halftime......

St.Louis at Cincinnati=Now this one also made me think; 2 teams that are capable of lighting it up but neither can play any kind of defense, Rams give up 24.8 ppg (27th) and Bengals 26.3 (29th)......Bengals win an exciting one,     35-34.....

Oakland at Green Bay=If I picked my Raiders last week I would have gone 14-2 instead of 13-3 but I was thinking how could they win 2 straight AFC West game's after their long losing streak??? Hitting my head against the online brick wall.....This is closer than the line on the game, Favre is coming off an injury and GB cant run the ball.....The Raiders have a top 5 pass defense and will keep it close, Packers, 23-16.....

Tampa Bay at Houston=Bucs on road and the Texans have come down to earth after a good start, Bucs, 20-10....

Carolina at Jacksonville=This game was a TD and created a meltdown by Cassidy vs NcshvDavid.....Apparently Cass thinks Jags by 17, not even close.....Jags 24-17......

NY Giants at Philadelphia=Giants beat Eagles earlier this year but in Philly, its a different story.....Eagles have some pride even if they are all but eliminated from the playoffs, Philly wins, 20-17.....

San Diego at Tennessee=Titans barely beat Texans last week in a game that they should have won by a lot more to put the doubters in check.....Chargers are in form and will win but Titans get to 9 wins and a wc with wins over Jets and Chiefs.....SD wins, 23-21, in a very good game.....

Minnesota at San Francisco=Vikings easily......Wait, it should be easy but they dont make anything easy especially since Jackson is inconsistent.....Vikes, 24-14......

Arizona at Seattle=If the Cards win, the NFC West becomes an interesting race the last 3 weeks.....Nah, Seattle is still class of this weak division, 27-16......

Pittsburgh at New England=It happens!!! Steel the Feel, I mean, Feel the Steel wins, 24-20.....Where is Woodson 26, he is MIA the last few weeks.....Right, he musta been deleted.....LOL......Pitt's pass rush and lockdown secondary win the game as Philly and Baltimore "blue printed"......Without Troy, its a little tougher to accomplish but I think Pitt pulls off the upset in Pats' backyard.....Anthony Smith better hope so or he might be looking for a place to call home next year.....Game of the week as Ben proves what a real QB can do after Boller and Feeley played well against NE.....

Kansas City at Denver=The Chiefs could be the worst team in the NFL.....The Broncos win easily at home to keep alive their faintest of faint chances at a wc.....Broncos, 24-10.....

Cleveland at NY Jets=The Browns have an easy 2nd half schedule according to EfBasketball or so I have been told.....I looked it up and it does look easy but Browns defense is god awful and this is 1 of those gut feelings I have......Jets have played awful for the most part but their defense has showed some guts this year......14-38 Pats.....Ummm, wait a minute, 31-28 over Miami, no.......19-16 WIN OVER PITT, there we go.....Plus Jets spanked Miami, 40-13 last week while my pick of Cards over Browns crystalized.....Miami has a better defense than the Browns by the way so Jets pill it out AT HOME, 28-24.....

Indianapolis at Baltimore=This wouldnt be a bad upset pick since Manning is minus Harrison and Ravens botched a win over the Pats when Boller "Boller-ized" the Ravens......Nah, Colts win a close one though, 24-23.....
