NFL Football: Week 14 – My Picks Reviewed
Posted on | December 11, 2007 | No Comments
As I already said, I was 0-1 before Sunday even came.
So now let’s see how I did with all the games.
Saint Louis Rams at Cincinnati Bengals
My Pick: Rams 29-21
I was off on this one. The Rams returned to looking horrible and the Bengals did just enough to win.
The Result: Bengals 19-10
Dallas Cowboys at Detroit Lions
My Pick: Cowboys 31-13
The Lions came out ready to play and they dominated – yes dominated – the Cowboys for 3 quarters. But the Cowboys aren’t 12-1 for no reason. They go it together just enough to escape Detroit with a one point win.
The Result: Cowboys 28-27
Oakland Raiders at Green Bay Packers
My Pick: Packers 27-7
This one was the lopsided victory I expected. The Packers continued to look good and the Raiders continued to look bad.
The Result: Packers 38-7
Miami Dolphins at Buffalo Bills
My Pick: Bills 27-14
Yes, I now believe the Dolphins will go 0-16. They’ve quit playing.
The Bills absolutely humiliated them.
Result: Bills 38-14
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Houston Texans
My Pick: Bucs 21-20
The Bucs didn’t play like a playoff team. Not at all. They will win the South but they’ll get crushed by whichever Wildcard team they face. Mark it down.
The Result: Texans 28-14
San Diego Chargers at Tennessee Titans
My Pick: Chargers 20-10
Look out for the Chargers. If they continue to improve then they just might give the Pats or the Colts a problem in the Divisional Playoff. Though Philip Rivers would have to stop holding the team back.
The Result: Chargers 23-17
Carolina Panthers at Jacksonville Jaguars
My Pick: Jags 33-10
This one went like I thought it would. The Jags are a very good team as long as they aren’t playing a good team.
The Result: Jaguars 37-6
New York Giants at Philadelphia Eagles
My Pick: Eagles 17-16
The Giants did just enough to win this game.
Actually they were helped out by a no-call pass interference (that was obviously PI) late in the game. Then they were helped out by Sam Madison of the Giants holding down an Eagles wide out.
The Result: Giants 16-13
Arizona Cardinals at Seattle Seahawks
My Pick: Seahawks 27-17
The Seahawks have strung a few wins together. But they’re still not nearly as good as the Packers or the Cowboys or even the Vikings.
The Result: Seahawks 42-21
Minnesota Vikings at San Francisco 49ers
My Pick: Vikings 33-14
The Vikings are red-hot right now. No team wants to see them in the playoffs.
The Result: Vikings 27-7
Pittsburgh Steelers at New England Patriots
My Pick: Steelers 37-17
Okay, I was way off. I let my hatred for all things Patriots get in the way. I admit it.
Can you 16-0? I can.
The Result: Patriots 34-13
Cleveland Browns at New York Jets
My Pick: Browns 28-10
Cleveland continues to toll.
The Jets have to go into New England next week. Their only hope is that the weather keeps them within 30 points.
The Result: Browns 24-18
Kansas City Chiefs at Denver Broncos
My Pick: Broncos 9-7
The Broncos showed some life. They threw the ball well and they ran the ball well.
Now, can they play well consistently?
The Result: Broncos 41-7
Indianapolis Colts at Baltimore Ravens
My Pick: Colts 41-10
Yup, the Colts crushed the Ravens.
The Result: Colts 44-20
New Orleans Saints at Atlanta Falcons
My Pick: Saints 20-16
It was almost as if there was no Monday Night Football. Maybe worse.
The Result: Saints 34-14
This Week: 11-5
Season: 59-32
(41)
