NFL Pickems Week 5

The bird on the left was originally flipped to Shawn and Ryan a few years ago during the Ny Penn All Star game in State College..
 This week it's being given to the Mighty McBeams and their 0-4 record..
You have found a new way to lose every week, And thank god for the Pirates getting in the playoffs.Otherwise I would have nothing to root for!!


OK... Enough on that rant.. With week 5 being a bye week for the Steelers, They are assured they will not lose this week!! There is always a bright spot  somewhere..


Buffalo(2-2) At Cleveland(2-2) 8:30 PM NFL Network

If you told me the Browns would be in a 3 way tie for first place in the AFC North, And Pittsburgh would be 0-4,I would  never believe it.. But kudos to the Brownies for making the tough changes they needed to do.It sure looks like they worked!
 I have said before I am not a huge fan of the Browns. But I sure like them better then the Ravens!!So please Cleveland, If Pittsburgh can't win..At least keep pace with those thugs from Baltimore..

Buffalo is riding a sort of hot streak also. Beating the Ravens in Buffalo last week. RB CJ Spiller is a game time decision to play(I'm sure he won't.. Yet another rough fantasy week) I think this game may actually be watchable.. But...... Pirates and Cardinals game 1  will be on.. And if I am not working.. I am pretty sure you know what will be watched!

Final Score, Red White And Blue Cows 21- Cleveland Show 24.

        Detroit(3-1) At Green Bay(1-2)  1:00 PM FOX

These are the games I wish I could watch!! With work,I can't really get up early enough to catch the 1 PM games..Detroit has a new dimension with Reggie Bush.. Matt Stafford actually has someone not named  Johnson to throw to!

Green Bay.. After finally getting a running back who rushed for over a 100 yards in week 2.. They had another do it in week 3.. Nice for Rodgers to have someone to hand the ball off and kill some clock at the end of a game..Kind of torn about this game.. Rodgers is my fantasy quarter back, Reggie Bush is my running back..

Guess I have to hope both do well, Just hope the QB does better.. Final Score, Blue Lions 28-Cheese Heads 38.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Philadelphia(1-3) At New York(Andres)(0-4)  1:00 PM FOX

Now this is a game that could be unwatchable. Chip Kelly's "high octane" offense lasted all of 1 half opening night. After getting the bejeebus beaten out of them last week by Peyton Manning and the Broncos,They now have to face the younger brother.. Boy this could be ugly.. The sad part is the NFC Least  is basically a 2 game swing from first to third,And 3 weeks of bad Cowboy games and Andre wins,This division could be almost fun ..

Final Score, Screaming Eagles 21- Andres 24. They finally win!! Of course that's my opinion..
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jacksonville(0-4) At St Louis(1-3)  1:00 PM CBS

It's games like this the networks wish they didn't have to show!!Maurice Jones Drew has gained more yards walking to his car then he has on the field... I can't even find a bright spot here.. This could be a game that decides the first round pick next season!

Final Score, Spotted Jagoffs 13- Horned Goats 24..

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There you have it.. Yet another week of not really thought out, Non scientific  football prognostications.. As always, If you think you can pick them better, Challenge me.. Until,. next time!
