Week 9 Predictions! after the jump!

Star-divide

Picks

Week 9 Matchups  
Prediction
Packers (6-1) @
Chiefs (4-3)
 
Brett Favre has beaten every NFL team in his career except the Chiefs. This will probably be his last chance and seeing as though this has been his year of accomplishments, I'm giving him another to knock of his list.
 
Redskins (4-3) @
Jets (1-7)
 
Neither Kellen Clemens or Chad Pennington can turn around the Jets miserable season. Bring in Tuiasosopo!
   
Jaguars (5-2) @
Saints (3-4)
 
The Saints are still march again, but the Jags are not going to be an easy opponent. If the Saints get their game going early, they can pull this one off.
   
Bengals (2-5) @
Bills (4-3)
 
How the hell do the Bills have more wins than the Bengals?
     
Çardinals (3-4) @
Buccaneers (4-4)
 
The Bucs are coming off a rough loss and the Cards have a lot of key injuries. Flip a coin to find the winner of this mediocre battle.
     
Broncos (3-4) @
Lions (5-2)
 
Anyone remember the last time the Lions had this many wins at this point in the season? Things are going too well for this team for it to end now...expect them to dominate the weak Broncos! Fun Fact: This is the first game where the two Bailey brothers, Champ and Boss, face each other! (Who names their kids Champ and Boss?)
     
Panthers (4-3) @
Titans (5-2)
 
A win is a win, but they aren't pretty for the Titans. Vince Young threw for 42 yards and 6 completions last week against the Raiders, but thanks to their defense and kicker Rob Bironas, they still are pulling `em out. This team isn't cursed, it's lucky beyond belief!
     
Chargers (4-3) @
Vikings (5-2)
 
Wonder why the Chargers are winning? Because Norv decided to finally run the ball! This game is going to be all about the run game and expect both LT and AP to get 100-yard games.
     
     
Seahawks (4-3) @
Browns (4-3)
 
Anyone notice that Derek Anderson is still number #2 in passing TDs? They have waaay too many offensive options for the Seahawks to stop.
Cowboys (6-1) @
Eagles (3-4)
 
Well-deserved Sunday night game. How come there was no talk about T.O. returning to Philly again? So far he hasn't beaten the Eagles in a blue and white uniform, but this one is going to be different. Romo for 4 TDs!
Ravens (4-3) @
Steelers (5-2)
 
If the Steelers pull this out, they'll be all alone at the top of the AFC North. Seeing as though they haven't lost in a Monday night in 16 years (that's the majority of my life!) and the Ravens are playing inconsistently, this should be all theirs.
Patriots (8-0) @
Colts (7-0)
 
Game of the week. Which one is going to stay undefeated? Why are the Pats the favored team even though the Colts have the homefield advantage and 13 straight home wins? Is Brady of Manning better? Which one of these two teams is going to win the Super Bowl? Why isn't this game on Monday night? Too many questions and I have no answers. The coin I flipped said the Pats were going to win...
     


Some Tony.psd flavor in ya ear!

Prediction
   
49ers (2-5) @
Falcons (1-6)
 
Ugh. This game is going to be horrendous to watch unless the 9ers can finally pull some offense against an equally crappy team. There is really nothing to analyze in this one - it's just not going to be pretty.
     
Texans (3-5) @
Raiders (2-4)
 
Both teams can't seem to pull it off in the end and neither is playing remarkable football. Matt Schaub and Andre Johnson are going to be out on this one, so it's going to be hard for them to get an offense started. Unfortunately, the Raiders are having the same problem...

Pats vs Colts
Oooh, this is gonna be a dandy. I'd say the last regular season NFL game this big was 49ers vs Cowboys in '94.

GO COLTS!

GO.......
COLTS! I hate the patriots with a passion. If you couldn't tell, I'm a Raider fan.

It's all about...
...the New England Patriots! I would be perfectly happy for Peyton Manning to get intercepted ten times today. I can't stand him. Oddly enough, though... kinda like Eli.

Go COLTS!
I'm becoming nauseated with the thought of a Pats/Celtics/Red Sox trifecta in Boston.  We'll never hear the end of it.

Just awful
Man the Niners are terrible.

Oh boy
Have to hand it to the Pats. That was clutch.

$10 says Bill Bellicheck isn't going to take Tony Dungy out for a cold one tonight. Seriously what was up with that at the end of the game?

by Atma Brother ONE on Nov 4, 2007 4:48 PM PST reply actions   0 recs

Heh
"The cold one" probably better describes the handshake itself...

Pats lucky to pull this one out, obviously. These teams are damn evenly matched. I'll be fairly shocked if they don't meet again in the AFC championship...

Yeah seriously though
What was that frigidness all about? Is there some interesting side story?

by Atma Brother ONE on Nov 4, 2007 6:18 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

There is but it's a short story...
Bellichek is an @_$hole.

Although I will give him props for wearing something different for a change.  It's a shame they won because Boston area fans are probably the most annoying in sports thank goodness BC lost. Although it will be nice to see the Colts win the rematch in Foxboro!!

The Patriots have the greatest free agency era dynasty but how tainted are those second two Super Bowls with Camera-gate?  The first was tainted by the Tuck Rule.  Even if this team runs the table there's no way they run with the non free agency dynasty teams of the 70s-80s-90s.

In other words
You hate the Pats, which "taints" any of their accomplishments. Full stop.

by Sleepy Freud on Nov 5, 2007 6:36 PM PST up reply actions   0 recs

I've always considered...
...that Dungy is kind of any underrated jerk for other things. Except Belichick is just kind of sour and reclusive about his job, whereas my problems with Dungy relate to his social awareness.

That aside, I think the Patriots have once again gotten into the Colts head as they used to be. The Colts nearly won that game because their defense was terrific and Joseph Addai went out of his mind. When Manning decided it was time for him to take over, though, he threw up all over himself. While Brady struggled early with the load on his back and got stronger as the game wore on, Manning started off running the offense pretty conservatively, decided to work himself in a little more, and got knocked around.
