pam Posted January 11, 2010 Report Posted January 11, 2010 (edited) Saturday: Arizona at New Orleans 4:30 ET Baltimore at Indianapolis 8:15 ET Sunday: Dallas at Minnesota 1:00 ET NY Jets at San Diego 4:40 ET I edited to add the times. Should be a good weekend of football Edited January 12, 2010 by pam Quote
nbblood Posted January 11, 2010 Report Posted January 11, 2010 Ok, this time I'll go out on a limb and predict the winners before the games are played. How long is the "edit" option available? I'll take the Saints, Colts, Cowboys and Chargers. I'd like to actually take the Jets, but there's no way I'm gonna do that in Pam's thread.....bad kharma......lol. I'd actually prefer for the Chargers to win anyway. I had a strong western upbringing. My father taught me not to lie, cheat, steal and, under no circumstances whatsoever, don't ever root for any team from New York!! When the Yankees played the Mets in the World Series, I figured the best possible outcome was for the team buses to wreck in the parking lot, injuring enough players to cancel the World Series. Otherwise, one of those teams would have to win. Anyway, I digress. Quote
pam Posted January 11, 2010 Author Report Posted January 11, 2010 but there's no way I'm gonna do that in Pam's thread A very wise decision...very wise. Quote
phatbac Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 i will make predictions..... cards at saints....cards the saints cant stop anyone and the cards can outscore them...take the over cowboys at the vikings....vikings ( cant pick the the boys) Brett Favre can beat the cowboys defense B'more at indy....Indy Flacco hurt and Peyton rested Jets at Chargers....Jets (sorry Pam ....dont ban me pls!) Jets is a tougher team and just aint skeerred...plus Norv is a bad coach! (pls dont ban me, Pam!) Quote
Guest Godless Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) The Colts make me nervous, but I think we can handle them, even with Flacco at less than 100%. He wasn't much of a factor in our beat-down of the Pats, and I think our defense and running game can give us another win. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see more of a spark from our passing game, but I think we can beat the Colts without it. Oh, and speaking of picks, look who's leading our SL Tribune group!!!

I will be rooting for the ravens but i dont think without a good passing game they will be able to overcome the colts. maybe flacco will play himself into the record books but last game he threw for like 34 yards on 10 attempts and without the turnovers that doesnt get it done.

Guest Godless Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 Thought you didn't care anymore? I care, just not a whole lot. My main concern now is seeing the Ravens get to the Super Bowl, but I'm doing well enough in the picks game that I figured I'd keep playing. Besides, I'm not a quitter like some people. Quote
pam Posted January 12, 2010 Author Report Posted January 12, 2010 Hey I didn't quit. I just let the computer make my choices. Quote
pam Posted January 12, 2010 Author Report Posted January 12, 2010 As much as I'd like to see the Chargers go all the way to the big game...I have to be realistic in knowing anything can happen. I just don't want to get my hopes up too much. Quote
Guest Godless Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 Same here. I have a lot of respect for the Colts, and Peyton Manning in particular. That's going to be a tough one for us to win. Quote
pam Posted January 12, 2010 Author Report Posted January 12, 2010 I have a lot of respect for the Jets defense. So of course I'm still worried about this upcoming game. But right now ESPN is showing the sports betting has the Chargers up by 9. Quote
nbblood Posted January 12, 2010 Report Posted January 12, 2010 cowboys at the vikings....vikings ( cant pick the the boys)Brett Favre can beat the cowboys defenseQUOTE]Uhh....his record against them says quite otherwise. Nobody's playing any better than the Cowboys right now. Vikings stumbled, tripped and fell across the finish line. I still like the Cowboys in an upset. I guess we'll see. Quote

I guess we'll see.you dont understand...if the cowboys were playing teh j.v. powderpuff team i cant pick the cowboys to beat the bus home.it will come down to the pass rush for both sides...whoever gets to the QB better wins.

I guess we both need therapy for our vindictiveness (see my previous post about New York teams). You don't have to like them........just because they have FIVE Superbowl rings!!..... Ok, so I'm a Cowboys fan and I'm obligated to pick them....no matter what. I still feel pretty good about it. It's probably just the false sense of security followed by disappointing loss. I do think that the Vikings are the biggest hurdle left for them. They've shown they can dominate New Orleans. Of course the Cardinals are playing awfully well of late.Oh well, I guess we'll see.

pam Posted January 13, 2010 Author Report Posted January 13, 2010 I think at this point, it's anyone's game. Quote
nbblood Posted January 13, 2010 Report Posted January 13, 2010 I think at this point, it's anyone's game.I think you are correct. It wouldn't surprise me really to see any of the remaining teams make it all the way. Especially with the teams that were so dominant (Minnesota, New Orleans, Indy), stumbling down the stretch the way they did. Can they turn it back on? We'll see. I like the way the Cowboys are playing.....if they could just cut their penalties like in half and not give the other team 150 yards/game. Quote
pam Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Posted January 16, 2010 Okay...for today...GO RAVENS!!!!!! Quote
beefche Posted January 16, 2010 Report Posted January 16, 2010 Okay...for today...GO RAVENS!!!!!!BOO! HISS! Quote
pam Posted January 16, 2010 Author Report Posted January 16, 2010 You ARE going to watch the game today...right beefche? Please please please please? Quote
Guest Godless Posted January 16, 2010 Report Posted January 16, 2010 Are you scared yet, beefche? Quote
beefche Posted January 16, 2010 Report Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) Bring it on! You are playing in OUR house. Colts fans are crazy. I've got some friends going to the game and they are setting up Mayflower trucks outside the Ravens locker room.... Scared yet, Godless? Edited January 16, 2010 by beefche Quote
