1. Here I go

Buffalo over New Orleans
Denver over Jacksonville
Tampa Bay over Detroit
Cincinnati over Houston
Indianapolis over Tennessee
New England over San Diego
Seattle over Washington (seems strange to type that)
NY Giants over St Louis
Baltimore over NY Jets
Oakland over Dallas
Atlanta over Minnesota (that hurts to type that)
Philly over Kansas City
Arizona over San Francisco (I see this game as the "someone's gotta win bowl" for the week)
Carolina over Green Bay

[trotsky]

2. Tough picks.

Lots of headscratchers this week.

New Orleans
Jacksonville
Tampa Bay
Cincinnati
Tennessee (my upset special!)
New England
Seattle
St. Louis
Baltimore
Oakland
Minnesota (I can dream, can't I?)
Kansas City
Arizona
Carolina

[KitchenWitch]

3. I so wanted to pick Minnesota, because I want them to win

but I do not know how the O-line is going to handle Atlanta's defense, and how the defense is going to handle Michael Vick!

[trotsky]

4. I am considering a few factors.

It's a road game, but it's indoors. Big plus.

They aren't expected to win this one. No pressure.

I thought I remembered reading somewhere that we've never lost at the Georgia Dome.

Ah, it just feels wrong to pick against 'em. I can't do it!

[WeRQ4U]

13. I picked them because they I think they should win the game.

I haven't been impressed with Atlanta yet. Their run game is ridiculous, but Vick is hurt. He was stationary last week. And with Minnesota's two shutdown corners, unless Crumpler catches 15 balls (he'll catch at least 8 and a TD) they should win the game. Vick's arm strength is NEVER questionable, but his accuracy IS. How's that for wishful thinking? LOL.

[trotsky]

14. Hmmm, some pretty good points.

And I read today that Atlanta's really suffering in the secondary. Lots of injuries. Bad news against Culpepper and his group of receivers.

[nickinSTL]

5. mine for week 4:

Buffalo over New Orleans
Denver over Jacksonville
Tampa Bay over Detroit
Cincinnati over Houston
Indianapolis over Tennessee
New England over San Diego
Seattle over Washington
St. Louis over NY Giants
Baltimore over NY Jets
Oakland over Dallas
Atlanta over Minnesota
Philadelphia over Kansas City
Arizona over San Francisco
Green Bay over Carolina (hate to say this, as a Bears fan, but GB is going to win eventually)

[nickinSTL]

16. As of Sunday evening

no final in the Sunday night game...

8-4

(SF is leading Arizona just before halftime...not going my way there)

[nickinSTL]

19. Arizona pulled it out...

So, with Sunday done, I'm at 9-4.

[Scurrilous]

[trotsky]

15. NICE call on the SD-NE game, Mojambo.

Next time you have a feelin', let me know, OK?

[Mojambo]

17. You got it.

Didn't expect a blowout. Tomlinson is an absolute freak!

Can't believe my Seahawks couldn't beat the Skins when they had the game practically gift wrapped for them!

[WeRQ4U]

12. My picks and the reasons for them.

Buffalo over New Orleans - Even if it's a home game, the Saints are away

Denver over Jacksonville - Denver is rolling and coming off big win. Fred Taylor sucks.

Tampa Bay over Detroit - Tampa at home against a poor Detroit team.

Cincinnati over Houston - Cincinnati cannot be stopped and Houston can't score

Indianapolis over Tennessee - Indi will score some points this week

New England over San Diego - New England is hurt and full of holes but are at home.

Seattle over Washington - Washington's sucks. Their wins are miracles

NY Giants over St. Louis - Giants offense against a hurt Marc Bulger

Baltimore over NY Jets - Baltimore's D will step up against 3rd stringer Bullinger.

Oakland over Dallas - Randy hasn't EVER lost to Dallas.

Minnesota over Atlanta - Minnesota goes into bye week suprising people, but in a good way now.

Kansas City over Philadelphia - KC at home, coming off tough loss.

Arizona over San Fran - Who cares, I just picked the home team.

Carolina over Green Bay - Carolina at home against an aweful GB team.

:silly:

[Tafiti]

22. Hell of a job K-Dub!

You stand alone on top now, but let's see if you can hang on. But hey, no pressure or anything! ;)

Already posted the Week 5 stuff. Obviously, your first instincts are on target, so jump right in! :thumbsup:

I thought my GB pick was gonna hold up there for a minute. Did you watch the whole game? Favre mounted a hell of a comeback.

[KitchenWitch]

23. I was amazed that he got that close

after looking like shit for the first half!

As much as I do not like Favre, I gotta respect his ability!

[KitchenWitch]

21. dupe

delete...

[nickinSTL]
