Week 5 in the NFL......

After going 11-4 last week I am finaly on the plus side at 32-30 for the season. Let's see if we can build on that this week although I have started this week 0-1 as I picked the Cards and they lost Thursday Night. Sunday starts with the Redskins at Atlanta. Finally a test for the Falcons defense against a truly mobile QB. RG3 should give them something different to look at. Redskins have enough to win. Giants over the Browns. Broncos travel to New England for another showdown between Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. My first upset pick...I am going with the Broncos. Texans too much for the Jets on Monday Night. My next upset is the Dolphins over the Bengals. Reggie will play and play well enough. Dolphins defense is much improved over last year gets it done. Packers over the Colts. Looks like the injury bug has hit the Colts again. Too much Aaron Rodgers & Clay Matthews. Ravens over the Chiefs. Steelers at home against the Eagles. Hard to bet against the Steelers at home. Pittsburgh wins. Apparently, I am the only one who believes the Seahawks are good. Seattle over Carolina today. Bears over the Jags who are still searching. Minnesota handles the Titans. Vikings are much improved over last year. Forty-Niners at home will handle the Bills on their cross country trek. Finally, tonight on Sunday Night Football the Chargers are at New Orleans. Although the Saints are winless, they face a Chargers team that has yet to find an identity. Call it split personality, but they seem to choke when it counts most, couple that with a hungry and dangerous  Saints team with a lot to prove in front of the home crowd and it spells trouble for San Diego. In prime time over the last several years especially at home the Saints have been on fire. This game will probably be a little closer but look for New Orleans to pull away in the 4th Quarter for their first win of 2012. Have a great football weekend!
