Football You Make The Call

scott free · 11-23-2012, 05:37 PM

I'm having more trouble with several of my weekly picks than i have all season, so i'm doing the only logical thing... throwing them out for the judgement of the Planets collective wisdom.

Minn @ Chi - leaning bears pride at home after that drubbing even if without Cutler, but it still smells vaguely like a shocker after last week.

Tenn @ Jax - Henne over Locker at home? or is jax just as bad as the Chiefs?

Atl @ TB - Schiano is instilling some mean will in that team, Freeman is looking like Raper 2.0, and a newfound run game at home? its somehow too easy to envision them pulling one off.

SF @ NO - it seams too easy, but Brees at home is almost always nails and their D usually *ahem* picks it up a notch there.

Pack @ NY - toughest call o the week, maybe leaning giants, is this is where Eli pulls his annual late season turn back into a two time super bowl MVP?

Even baltimore in eggo doesnt seem so easy to me, norv and rivers are always good for winning a few games when its almost too late in the year to matter, they do garbage time wins like cassel does td's. Rams at zona, same thing, doesnt seem like a gimme though i do maybe lean STL.

Anyway, who ya got?

Out of my ass -

- Chicago
- Tennessee
- Atlanta
- San Fran
- Green Bay

That's a shitload of road teams. DON'T THINK, JUST PICK. Or something.

I took the Titans since the Jax D is shit, and I just have a feel about this Atlanta team, although I love what Schiano is doing in Tampa. Nice up and coming team he has there.

I had the same though but then said **** it, im sticking with my picks. I went CHI, TEN, ATL, NO, GB. Unless you are talking spread, the only difference then is MIN over CHI.

Another pick for titans on the road, hmm, Henne lighting it up against a top d was pretty impressive, maybe he sparks that team? what do the titans really have, even Johnson is pedestrian anymore.

I dunno though, its a tough call.

As far as the spread and all of that, i dont play it, its just something hardcore gamblers do to make things even harder.

Every bit of this. Since there is almost guaranteed to be one upset at a bare minimum, take the Giants. They're in a slump, but don't bet against them. They've proven it over the last couple of years.

You're helping me go giants here... at home, and under any real pressure... thats when the Book of Eli and everyone else seems to play their best.

Manning has been pretty bad lately, but at home, after a few embarrassing losses, and its getting late... i'm starting to think giants as well.

Rodgers & co will do their part, but the pack D wont hold up here, thats my pick.
