Week 3 Picks

Just what you have been waiting for all week long:

Arizona +3.0
@ Washington -3.0
I like this Cardinals team, but Jason Campbell did a nice job against New Orleans last week. Take the points and Kurt Warner.
Pick: Arizona

Cincinnati +13.0
@ New York -13.0
Poor Cincinnati. 0-2, going on a third straight loss. Carson Palmer is not his self from 3 years ago, Chad Ocho Cinco couldn't score in the Red Light district and their defence is a mess.
Pick: New York

Oakland +9.5
@ Buffalo -9.5
Them Bills are looking pretty good. I'm putting this down now, Buffalo will make the playoffs.
Pick: Buffalo

Kansas City +5.0
@ Atlanta -5.0
Pick: Atlanta

Houston +5.0
@ Tennessee -5.0
The Kerry Collins experiment is working down in Nashville, and Houston had an involuntary bye-week. Chris Johnson will run all over Houston, but Matt Schaub may be able to sling it enough to make it close.
Pick: Houston

Tampa Bay +3.0
@ Chicago -3.0
Pick: Tampa Bay

Carolina +3.5
@ Minnesota -3.5
The Vikings benched Tarvaris Jackson for Gus Frerotte. Carolina moves to 3-0, while the Vikings, a sexy pick before the season, is in the dreaded hole of 1-2-ness.
Pick: Carolina.

New Orleans +5.5
@ Denver -5.5
Should be a good game, hopefully it will be a close one. These teams both have issues on the defensive side of the ball, so I'm going to go with the points on this one, and hope that the Saints D steps it up a notch.
Pick: New Orleans

Detroit +4.0
@ San Francisco -4.0
This is a dangerous game. On one side, we have the 49ers, the team that beat Seattle a week ago, but still gave up almost 30 points. On the other hand, you have Detroit, the nearly-come-from-behind-victory 2 weeks in a row. I am not sold on either team, so I will not put money on this one.
Pick: San Francisco

St. Louis +9.5
@ Seattle -9.5
Divisional matchup in the crappiest division.
Pick: St. Louis

Pittsburgh +3.5
@ Philadelphia -3.5
Pick: Philadelphia

Cleveland +2.5
@ Baltimore -2.5
The Browns looked like that (get it?) against Dallas, and a bit better against Pittsburgh. Baltimore played solid against the hopeless Bungels so we won't know about them yet. Clevelands defence is still a mess, so take the Ravens at home.
Pick: Baltimore

Jacksonville +5.0
@ Indianapolis -5.0
Pick: Indianapolis

Dallas -3.0
@ Green Bay +3.0
The Battle for NFC-supremacy? Maybe. It's gonna be a great game no matter what. I'm not sure who to pick here, but I like Green Bay's defence enough to make it a close one.
Pick: Green Bay

New York +9.0
@ San Diego -9.0
Which of these teams do I hate the least? Hard to say, but San Diego is in deep, deep trouble if they lose this game. I don't know which unit is worst: the Charger defence or the Jet offence.
Pick: New York

Last week: 8-6

Season: 17-12
