Observations through Week 5:

 

Steelers and Packers are overrated. Steelers will still make the playoffs because the division sucks. Aaron Rodgers is done.

 

Cowboys and Vikings are for real but not good enough to beat the Patriots.

 

Pats will be in the Super Bowl and probably win because the AFC sucks and the NFC teams will beat the hell out of each and have nothing left in the tank.

 

Tom Brady is the Greatest of All Time...deal with it.

 

Do not agree with Line

 

 

2 -----Rogers is certainly not done. Steelers are a talented squad

 

3-------------Vikings are good enough to beat New England

 

4-------that statement is really not logical

 

But Brady is GOAT !!!

 

Steelers are talented but not that good. Big difference.

 

Rodgers is done. I always felt he was a little overrated.

 

Vikings and Cowboys are good enough...they just can't do it. Sam Bradford and a rookie against Brady and Belichick?...please!

 

Who is that good on the AFC? The conference stinks. NFC has Vikings, Cowboys, Seahawks, Atlanta can't be overlooked. I would take any of those teams against Pittsburgh, Houston and even Denver.

 

Teams are figuring out Denver's defense and the rookie QB. New England all the way.

Re read my line 3, I said the Vikings ( yes Bradford) could beat the Pats. I did say not the Cowboys ( as you put it the rookie) beating Belichick ...ah I say no.

 

It is a little soon in the season still to say a good all around team could not emerge from the AFC to challenge the Pats for the top spot.

 

I agree Denver is suspect now. How did you even mention the Texans in the same breath as Pittsburgh? Is it because they made the playoffs last year?

 

I agree at the close of week 6 the AFC is not matching up to the talent in the NFC....hell even my Skins have won 4 in a row !

 

Possibly KC or San Diego could get it in gear by December?

 

At least Cam and his Panthers are not grabbing headlines for good reasons ! lol

[touch]

What do you boys feel are the 3 best match ups for today Week 6?

 

I will go with ATL at Seattle

Dal at G Bay

KC at Oak

 

Interested to see what Cam and Cap can do as they return as starters for their teams as starting QB's today

 

A little worried about my Skins Defense against our NFC rival Eagles, but it is a divisional game and Wash almost always rises up for those.

 

 

 

.

 

I think Kansas city blows Oakland out.

 

 

 

Nice call Mr. ATL !

I agree. Can someone tell me why Marvin Lewis isn't gone in Cincinnati? He should have been canned after the playoffs last year.

[touch]

ODB!

 

Amazing talent .....amazing distraction ....amazing attention lover...... Enough with the antics #13 you have the big boy talent, act a little more like a big boy

on the field. Right?

I don't agree on the Steelers. They have a pretty easy schedule, and they made the playoffs last year with Rothlisb missing 4 games. The Ravens and the Bengals are scuffling along, and they could beat the Browns with me at QB.

 

If he's gone for the rest of the season, sure... but they're not saying that.

Needs to rein in the antics for sure. Just let his game talk. Guy can make dbs look like they are standing still.

If anyone comes back from injury earlier, it's Big Ben.

[knock it close]

Honestly I'm shocked they already ruled him out for this week. They got a bye after the pats so he's only gonna miss one game.

MNF who you got tonight? Predict the score for fun as well.

I would agree if it wasn't a primetime game. I feel like every sunday/monday nighter goes over.

 

I have no stats to back this up

 

Edit: Sunday/Monday nighters are 5-5-2 on the O/U

I think Rodgers is hearing footsteps now that he didn't used to hear. Making some pretty poor judgement with the ball at times.

2 on the number pushes on the total aye?

 

The Vegas line opened at 47 and is going to go off at 45 1/2 . The public likes the over 55% to 45 %

I just took a peek at the team stats for Offense and team Defense on ESPN before making my prediction.

.Both teams are just a tad above middle of the pack in the NFL regarding team stats on both sides of the ball.

The kind of big edge goes to the secondary of Arizona.

 

 

Looks to be a AZ -7 points at kickoff.

I don't know why but I would take the td with the Jets tonight. It just might be redemption time for the bearded Harvard QB !!!

 

Then again the Cardinals have way under performed this season too, and are due for a statement game.

Cards 20 Jets 13 I take the 7 1/2 and win by the hook!

Let's go Ryan

[CommerceTiger]

I feel like the cards snap out of it.

 

34-20 cards

Yea I mean IMO everything points to the opening 47 being way to high and I think the 45.5 is still a touch high, but what do I know

[touch]

Now the sports writers are calling for Ryan to sit it out and Gino (worst NFL backup qb) to start.

 

Man it would be heck to be a Jets fan right now.

It's a good thing they didn't reach in the second round for a QB that struggled through much of his college career and chose to leave school early...

and my Skins say Thank you

Black and Blue rivalry tonight boys in the NFL

 

Chicago +8 and the total is 46 1/2 At Lambeau Field 8:25 EST on CBS

 

For fun ------ Make your predictions please

 

 

VS

[CommerceTiger]

I'd take the Packers and the points in this one. Bears should lock down on Jordan Howard and Hoyer is really just an average quarterback. Rodgers should be able to throw all over these guys.

 

My prediction is 28-14 packers

Pfft...this is an ignorant homer comment if I've ever seen one. As a Vikings fan, the Patriots are the absolute last team I'd want to meet in the super bowl, but the wau that defense has looked it's asinine to say there's any team they couldn't beat on any given week.

[touch]

Packers 24 Bears 17

[CommerceTiger]

Not too far off my prediction. Called Howard getting completely shut down

Maybe last night's performance will quiet some of those Rogers critics who have been chirping loud lately.

 

He really had to make a statement last night as he had been slumping .....and he did.

 

39/56 326 yds 3 TD 0 INT qbr 78.9 and lots of dancing around in the pocket. lol he is so great at that

 

He is right in their with QB's Brady, Brees, Big Ben, Rivers, and Ryan as the cream of the crop currently playing .

Your statement on the AFC being crap outside of the Pats is looking stronger now indeed.
