NFL picks

ok, my picks for yesterday's games were

Saints vs Bears - I'll go with Saints by 7
Patriots vs Colts - I'll pick the Colts by 6

The results were :
Bears by 25
Colts by 4

So I went 1 for2 bringing me to 4 for 10 - not that good. (which is what I predicted at the start of all this)

The Superbowl on feb 4th will see Da Bears vs The Colts. I will pick the Colts to win. I'm basing this on the fact they had a tougher road to get there and will be hungrier. The Bears have had it easier and may get lazy thinking they have it sealed up.

NFL Week 2....not so good this time around

Okay, prior to this weeks games I was 3 for 4 by correctly picking Philadelphia, Seattle, and Indianapolis to win their games.

My picks this week were :
Colts vs Ravens - Ravens by 17
Eagles vs Saints - Eagles by 6
Seahawks vs Bears - Seahawks by 3
Patriots vs Chargers - Chargers by 7

Here's how the games actually went down :
Colts vs Ravens - Colts won by 9
Eagles vs Saints - Saints won by 3
Seahawks vs Bears - Bears won by 3
Patriots vs Chargers - Patriots won by 3

You'll notice I went 0 for 4 this week, which brings my total to 3 for 8. Not good!

Next week's matchups go like this :
Saints vs Bears - I'll go with Saints by 7
Patriots vs Colts - I'll pick the Colts by 6

Tune in next week to see how I did. Probably not much better than I did this week. I'm better at picking CFL winners than I am NFL games.

NFL Results

ok, first weekend of NFL Playoffs is done, lets see how I did

Jets vs Patriots : I picked Seattle by 3. Las Vegas picked the Pats by 8. Patriots won by 21.
Giants vs Eagles : I picked the Eagles by 14. Vegas had the Eagles as 7 point favorites. Eagles won by 3.
Chiefs vs Colts : I picked Colts by 10. Vegas said Colts by 7. The Colts won by a 15 point margin.
Cowboys vs Seahawks : I picked Seahawks by 6. Las Vegas had Seahawks by 3. Seahawks won by 1 point.

The Tally : I got 3 out of 4 right. Not too bad but they were fairly easy picks this weekend.

Next weeks games :

New England Patriots vs SanDiego Chargers - I say Chargers by 7
Indianapolis Colts vs Baltimore Ravens - Ravens by 17
Seattle Seahawks vs Chicago Bears - Seahawks by 3
Philadelphia Eagles vs New Orleans Saints - Eagles by 6

NFL picks (resurrected from the old blog)

ok, I'm not a huge NFL fan but since I will likely be forced to sit through all of the playoff games this year I figured I may as well make some picks so that all of you who are NFL fans can laugh at my lack of knowledge.

Kansas City Chiefs @ Indianapolis Colts : I am going with Indianapolis by 10 (Las Vegas has Indy by 7)
Dallas Cowboys @ Seattle Seahawks : I say Seattle by 6 (Las Vegas has Seattle by 3)
N.Y. Jets vs New England Patriots : This is my "upset" pick - N.Y. Jets by 3 (Las Vegas has N.E. by 8)
N.Y. Giants @ Philadelphia Eagles : I'm picking Philly by 14 (Las Vegas has Phi by 7)
