Dot's Sure Losers of the Week

Tampa Bay @ Atlanta: Atlanta, given their stellar home record.

Detroit @ Indianapolis: Really. I have to say something? Indy

Seattle @ St. Louis: The battle of the 2-11 teams. The line is even. I tossed a coin, and it said take St. Louis

Buffalo @ NY Jets: I am taking Buffalo, in the hopes that karma helps somehow.

Tennessee @ Houston: Houston. Tennessee is playoffs bound and resting up.

Washington @Cincinnati: 'skins.

San Diego @ Kansas City: Kansas City is bad, but could surprise. I still have to go with SD. When will LT wake up?

San Francisco @ Miami: Miami, as I grit my teeth and pray they lose.

Green Bay @ Jacksonville: Green Bay, though lord knows why.

Minnesota @ Arizona: Arizona, in a big way.

New England @ Oakland: Could the season get any worse for New England? Still, they win.

Denver @ Carolina: Carolina is on a roll, and I need DeAngelo Williams to keep his TD streak alive for my fantasy team. Panthers all the way

Pittsburgh @ Baltimore: I dunno. Pittsburgh, I guess.

NY Giants @ Dallas: Giants.

Cleveland @ Philadelphia: Cleveland has had one Monday night upset. They won't get two. Philly

Football Thursday

I like Chicago tonight, and their defense will come up big to save my fantasy team. You can see how close everything is: I'm in second place by less than 2 points, and I play Kit, who is in third place, this weekend. I need to win and win big to finish first in the league....and then, playoffs!

*1. Tigers 10-4-0 .714 1510.05 L-1 6 30
*2. New England Dotriots 10-4-0 .714 1508.50 L-2 8 15

Tonight's Game!

I'm taking Chicago!!!

Kit's Picks - Week 14!!

Wheee coming in under the wire here today as the 1:00 games get underway!!

Jacksonville Jaguars@ Chicago Bears: Hmmm yeah. Gotta go Chicago here!

Houston Texans @ Green Bay Packers: Texans are lackluster...so is Green Bay. But I'm betting on the Pack to pull it out today.

Atlanta Falcons @ New Orleans Saints: Call me crazy...I think Atlanta will take it!

Cleveland Browns @ Tennessee Titans: *sigh* Hello Ken Dorsey. Goodbye Romeo Crennell (we can only hope). Titans get an early Christmas gift w/this one.

Philadelphia Eagles @ New York Giants: Losing Plax hurts the Giants. Philly is a team in crisis. I think this will be a dogfight...but the G-men will prevail.

Cincinnati Bengals @ Indianapolis Colts: Bengals? Who dey? Another early Christmas gift. Say thanks, Peyton!

Minnesota Vikings @ Detroit Lions: Good god the Lions are so sad. AD runs...well...all day. Vikings take it.

Miami Dolphins @ Buffalo Bills: Buffalo...wherefore art thou? I gotta take my home boy Pennington and the Fins.

New York Jets @ San Francisco 49ers: The cracks are showing for the Jets. But this is a must win...and I think they can do it. And will.

Kansas City Chiefs @ Denver Broncos: The Broncs put another nail in the coffin that is the sad AFC West.

New England Patriots @ Seattle Seahawks: New England has an awfully easy season for having been 16-0 last season. Lucky for them, considering. Winning this one'll keep them in the AFC East title race.

St. Louis Rams @ Arizona Cardinals: The legend of Kurt Warner grows as the angry birds take another!

Dallas Cowboys @ Pittsurgh Steelers: This is a very tough late season matchup for two teams who can't afford to lose right now. The 'Boys need it more, however, and I think they'll take it. Narrowly.

Washington Redskins @ Baltimore Ravens: And...this is the other side of the coin to the Dallas/Pittsurgh matchup. Ironic that these 4 teams got matched up this week. Like Dallas, the 'Skins need it more. Unlike Dallas, they won't get it.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Carolina Panthers: Tight game I think. I'm taking the Bucs.

Dot's Picks of the Week

Kit keeps sneaking up closer in the standings, and this may be the week where I lose it completely. I also got killed in fantasy football last week (Brian Westbrook went for four touchdowns on Thanksgiving, which meant I would never catch up). Still, I am plugging away at my picks, but not with any great confidence this week.

Jacksonville @ Chicago Chicago, I think.

Houston @ Green Bay Green Bay

Atlanta @ New Orleans Atlanta.

Cleveland @ Tennessee Tennessee.

Philadelphia @ New York Giants Giants

Cincinnati @ Indianapolis Indianapolis. Peyton Manning, my fantasy QB, totally screwed me last week.

Minnesota @ Detroit Minnesota. All my Gus Frerotte bashing, and he keeps winning.

Miami @ Buffalo Buffalo, to help save the Patriots' season.

New York Jets @ San Francisco Jets, I guess. But I hope they lose.

Kansas City @ Denver Who the hell knows. Denver

New England @ Seattle New England, in the first of four must win games for the Pats

St. Louis @ Arizona Arizona, as Kurt Warner decimates his former team.

Dallas @ Pittsburgh Pittsburgh. What can I say?

Washington @ Baltimore Baltimore

Tampa Bay @ Carolina Tampa Bay. I honestly thought Carolina was supposed to be good this year. I suppose I was misinformed.

Thursday Night Update

Oakland v. San Diego I'm sure the NFL Network is thrilled to have this on the slate. Sure, Oakland could win, but they probably won't. Then again, LT is MIA. SD gets the W.

Thursday Night Football!!

Oakland Raiders @ San Diego Chargers: Riiiight. In the week 14 version of the Who Cares Bowl...I'll take the Chargers.
