Mikey's Crystal Ball: Week 14
Last week: 10-6
Season record: 124-68
Okay, not to pat myself in the back here, but I picked the exact final score of the Saints/Lions game last week--31-17 Saints. Maybe I should go play the lottery today. With that, let's have a look at Week 14's slate:
Cleveland at Pittsburgh--What is it about this match up that has the NFL Network salivating every year? Steelers 20, Browns10
Indianapolis at Baltimore--So how many of your took the Patriots giving the 21 points last week, only to watch in horror as 31-3 became 31-24 in the blink of an eye? And hey, who needs Peyton Manning or Andrew Luck when Dan Orlovsky puts up a 113.2 passer rating? That said, 0-13 is a foregone conclusion. Ravens 27, Colts 7
Atlanta at Carolina--Cam, we are counting on you. Panthers 21, Falcons 17
Houston at Cincinnati--Can the Texans hang in there and win their division? Winning this game would go a long way, but I don't see it happening. Bengals 19, Texans 16
Minnesota at Detroit--If the Lions win this, as they should, it will raise the question--when is the last time this team won 8 games in a season? Lions 37, Vikings 20
Oakland at Green Bay--The Raiders pose the equivalent of a speed bump for this Green Bay team. Packers 34, Raiders 13
Tampa Bay at Jacksonville--Two Florida teams playing in December. It's enough to make old school NFL fans cringe. Jags 17, Bucs 16
Philadelphia at Miami--How much worse can it get in Philly? Dolphins 23, Eagles 20
Kansas City at NY Jets--This is precisely the kind of game the Jets could lose, but I don't think they will. Jets 20, Chiefs 9
New Orleans at Tennessee--I feel gravity pulling me toward the Titans, and it's probably because #28 is playing like he's supposed to. Ehhhhh, okay I'm gonna give in. Titans 31, Saints 24
New England at Washington--Same old Redskins. Patriots 26, Redskins 17
San Francisco at Arizona--Don't look now, but the Niners are pretty good. Niners 23, Cards 17
Chicago at Denver--Too bad Cutler can't play in his homecoming, but even if he did, I'm quite sure the Bears wouldn't be able to derail the Tebow train. Broncos 19, Bears 13
Buffalo at San Diego--Wait, the Chargers are actually still alive? In other news, Norv Turner sure is better than Marty, isn't he? Bills 37, Chargers 35
NY Giants at Dallas--It's go time, fellas. Giants 34, Cowboys 31
St. Louis at Seattle--Really? I wonder what's on the Food Network Monday night. Seahawks 20, Rams 17

Heck of a matchup on Monday night. Yawn Skyrim it is.
Why is Tom Quinn still here? I loves me some Coach Clawfin.
Loving Skyrim
between that and Minecraft I could waste months….
I have 60 + hours in . Just beat the compaions quest line and
I’m now working on the main Quest. Love this game!

I will soon be joining the endless ranks of Skyrima addicts.

I had to tear myself from it
because I was moving and still unpacking and getting things in place, plus Christmas to deal with but as soon as I get past all this, I will jump back in hard.
Course… not sure a Skyrim thread really belongs here but it is linked somewhat because the Giants will dictate when in January I start.
PC….these kinds of games (i.e. Elder Scrolls, Fallout) definitely seem better on the PC to me…and that’s because I have experience with both…though in my case its Fallout 3 on PS3.

Mike, to answer your question about Food Network on Monday
I think its a mini marathon of Guy Fiatti’s ‘Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives’…. so I’ll be watching that instead of this clash of titans

Why the NFL insists on putting......
lousy teams like the Browns, Seahawks, etc….on prime time is unbelievable. There are no reasons for some of these teams to be on. Tonights game is a joke and the Steelers will probably win by more than 3 TD’s.
TCB
Van Pelt on the tackle....
Wide right forever.....
18 and 1 GIANT lose.......
I don't know why the Giants got the MNF game vs the Saints this year...
The Giants/Rams game was different because of Spags. If the Giants didn’t blow games vs the Seahawks and Eagles then Sunday night’s game wouldn’t even matter either.
nywins42 needs a new screen name - "nywins46" sounds great!
Just ordered FatHeads for all available Giants. Now I have something to aim at when punching holes in my wall.
I know that
they have to plan ahead and teams have to sell tickets and all….but it sure would be great if MNF could flex like SNF does the last few games.
Though I like the prediction on the Dallas game
God, I hope the score is not that close. I need a break from the tension and would like a 3 score lead with 5 minutes to go. Not that anyone will listen to my whining but what the heck.
I got a GIF for that!

How about a 3 point lead
with 5 minutes to go and we have the ball, make a couple of 1st downs when we’re ahead (when is the last time that happened) and run out the clock? Would you settle for that?

I'm listening

I’m with you Fester. Not sure how much more of this my dog and wife can take (from me….). Sure would be nice to see them get up on the Cowboys early and stay there. Of course we will all take a win, one way or other. So write that down – Foster’s with Fester… :)

Hopefully the Cowboys.....
will keep talking crap and the Giants will just do their talking on the Field this week. But I am sure Mr. Jacobs will open up his mouth. Where’s Parcells when you need him?

off topic: Does anybody know HAM's status for Sunday?
We’ve never had a package of Nicks-Cruz-Manningham-Barden…..EVER. If Barden continues to develop, that’s the top WR lineup in the NFL….or at least tied with the Saints/Packers.
I support the Giants like bras support Kim Kardashian's boobs. It can be a struggle, we've had some jiggles, but we're still firm.

HAM's status
Says he expects to play Sunday nite
DavebrownNOT
Idk what they are smoking in TX. I went over to BTB and seen a comment that read " If Rodgers can pick apart that secondary than Romo can". SMH…. They are some of the most delusional people in sports.

Hope you're right but
How do we stop Bryant, Austin, Robinson, Witten, Murray and Ogletree?
DavebrownNOT
We could do a few things...
Get them to go for a joy ride with Suh.
Get them to go to a nightclub with Burress/Cruz.
Get them to hang out with McClain in Alabama.

Nicks, Cruz, Manningham, Ballard, Barden, and Bradshaw?

Put Ware on McKenzie or Diehl.
Ware on McKenzie I think is KEY to this game. And I dont like this matchup.
DavebrownNOT
Well Ware against anybody is a mismatch
The thing is not to stop him but to limit him and move away from his side.
Peyton May Have The Wins!!
But Eli Will Have The Rings!!!

The Raiders
Are more interesting this week than people are giving them credit for. Don’t care much about getting blown out by Miami (a team that is better with Chad Henne on the bench). Not to mention the west coast to east coast thing always gives teams a hard time. Going from California to Wisconsin shouldn’t be nearly as bad.
I’d take them on an eleven point spread, at least.
well...
i definitely had something to say about this post before when i read it…but then i got side tracked and totally lost it…so this is what I’m posting instead.

oh yeah...
i think it had something to do with giving the Redskins too much credit with 17 points…
with Fred Davis out for the rest of the season they’re going to look even worse on offense.

Seriously
When making the schedule who thought “Rams vs. Seahawks” would matter, and what were they on when this thought crossed their mind?
