2007 NFL Week 8
Sunday October 28, 2007
Oakland Raiders at Tennessee Titans
Eddie – RAIDERS
The Titans won an emotional game against the Texans last week but the Raiders are a different team. Some may call this an upset but the Raiders have the better team.
Fred – TITANS
Just like I said last week, Vince Young = a Win. And he didn’t even play last week! His presence on the sideline was enough.
Indianapolis Colts at Carolina Panthers
Eddie – COLTS
In 2003 the Colts came off a short week looking to stay undefeated. Deja-Vu. This year they play the Panthers looking to stay undefeated. Unlike 2003 though the Colts will win this time.
Fred – COLTS
It’s meant to be for the two best teams in the NFL to be undefeated when they play each other in Week 9.
New York Giants at Miami Dolphins
Eddie – GIANTS
The Giants can only lose this game if they beat themselves.
Fred – GIANTS
It’s the Patriots, but c’mon! The Dolphins looked like a pee wee league football team against them last week. The Giants are still hot and will definitely get the “W” on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.
Detroit Lions at Chicago Bears
Eddie – LIONS
The Lions appear to have their running game established with Jones back in the mix. This will help keep the Bears defense honest.
Fred – BEARS
In their previous game this year, Detroit put up 37 points against the Bears. They want revenge, and they are at home this time. The Bears win, but it’s an extremely close game.
Cleveland Browns at St. Louis Rams
Eddie – RAMS
Welcome back S Jax and let’s all congratulate the Rams for their first win.
Fred – RAMS
In 6 games, Cleveland is averaging 1 sack per game, which is tied for 3rd worst in the NFL. Bulger should finally have time to complete his passes and will have S-Jax in the backfield again. Upset pick #1!
Philadelphia Eagles at Minnesota Vikings
Eddie – VIKINGS
Peterson will “Fly like an Eagle” as the hungry Vikings will look to dominate the defensive side of the ball.
Fred – EAGLES
The loser of this game will be 2-5, and probably not have a chance at a wild card bid for the playoffs. The Eagles have more veteran players, and a better coach. They pull this one out.
Pittsburgh Steelers at Cincinnati Bengals
Eddie – BENGALS
Steelers should dominate the game especially after an upset in Denver but because this is a divisional rival I’m going with the Bengals’ upset.
Fred – STEELERS
Bengals defense is horrific so the Steelers will win in a high scoring game.
Jacksonville Jaguars at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Eddie – BUCCANEERS
No Garrard no win.
Fred – BUCCANEERS
If Garrard was the QB, it’d be an easy pick. But, with a QB that has no control of that arm, it’s going to be easy for the Bucs to stack the box and prevent Taylor and MJD from running wild.
Houston Texans at San Diego Chargers
Eddie – CHARGERS
The Chargers will be playing to help relieve the stress of their city. Expect a major blowout.
Fred – CHARGERS
Chargers are off a bye week and Texans have yet another injured player…their starting QB. Even if Schaub plays, there’s no way they can win this one. The Chargers are refreshed and going to want to win this one for their city.
Buffalo Bills at New York Jets
Eddie – JETS
Man-Genuis should have started Clemens several weeks ago. Although he may not get the start he’ll win this game for the J-E-T-S .. JETS JETS JETS
Fred – JETS
Pennington gets pulled from Clemens and the Jets comeback and win.
Washington Redskins at New England Patriots
Eddie – PATRIOTS
This is getting ridiculous.
Fred – PATRIOTS
Refer to comment above.
New Orleans Saints at San Francisco 49ers
Eddie – SAINTS
The Saints have the momentum and it appears Brees is back on track.
Fred – 49ers
As of right now, it appears Gore is playing. With Alex Smith back, and the game in San Fran, they should barely win this one. Upset pick #2!
Monday October 29, 2007
Green Bay Packers at Denver Broncos
Eddie – BRONCOS
Broncos at home are a tough team to beat. Ask last week’s Steelers.
Fred – PACKERS
Off a bye week, and on a Monday night, the Packers secondary will put the clamps down on the Denver passing game and pull out the upset. Upset pick #3!
