NFL Recap - Week 16

It was a decent week with Big Blue finally clinching a playoff spot. We've been avoiding sports talk radio so we don't have to hear the endless debate about who the Giants should play in Saturday night's game vs. the Patriots.

Giants -3
at Bills
Down 14-0 in minutes, we were ready to throw a remote control in earnest for the 1st time since game 5 of the 1994 NHL Eastern Conference Finals. Then the Giants dominated and all was right with the world. RIGHT

Steelers -7.5 at Rams
Blow out city. Unfortunately for the Steelers, Willie Parker's fibula also got blown away. RIGHT

Cowbys -10.5 at Panthers
Jessica Simpson was nowhere to be found, but the Cowboys still barely beat the Panthers. WRONG

Browns -3 at Bengals
Browns blew a chance to help seal up the wild card. Now they are at the mercy of the Colts-Titans. WRONG

Packers -8.5 at Bears
A blow out.....except the wrong team won. WRONG

Colts -7 vs Texans
The Peytons crushed. RIGHT

Chiefs +5 at Lions
The big push. PUSH

Jaguars -13 vs. Raiders
Jags keep on rolling. RIGHT

Eagles +3 vs. Saints
Eagles are hot...too little too late. RIGHT

Cardinals -10 vs. Falcons
This is why the Cardinals should NEVER be favored by double digits. An OT win means - WRONG

Bucs -6.5 vs. 49ers
Bucs stunk out the joint. WRONG

Patriots -22 vs. Dolphins
A cake walk..and they didn't cover! 1 point shy. WRONG

Seahawks (NL) over Ravens
Seahawks cruised. RIGHT

Jets +8.5 at Titans
We knew it was too big a spread for the Titans. RIGHT

Vikings -6.5 vs. Redskins
Did not see this one coming. WRONG

Chargers -8.5 vs. Broncos
Chargers rammed the Broncos. RIGHT

Week 16 - 8-7-1
129-107-7 overall

This Week in the NFL - week 16

Wow, just 2 weeks to go in the NFL regular season. Hard to believe. It also means less than 2 months until spring training! Here's this week's picks.

Thursday

Steelers -7.5
at Rams
The inconsistent Steelers should be able to cruise in this one.

Saturday

Cowbys -10.5
at Panthers
Unlike the debacle that was the Seahawks-Panthers game, the Cowboys will bounce back from last week's loss in a big way.

Sunday

Giants -3
at Bills
Are we concerned? Damn straight!

Browns -3 at Bengals
Big upsets have occurred in this series, but not this week.

Packers -8.5 at Bears
No reason to have any confidence in da Bears right now.

Colts -7 vs Texans
Texans have been as unpredictable as the Colts have been injured.

Chiefs +5 at Lions
Maybe because we just needed to take an underdog.

Jaguars -13 vs. Raiders
We hate the big point spreads, but the Jags are hot.

Eagles +3 vs. Saints
Okay, so we took another dog. And both these times have been tremendous dogs this year, if you know what we mean.

Cardinals -10 vs. Falcons
Even the Cardinals can't blow this one. Right?

Bucs -6.5 vs. 49ers
The Niners can't think they would win 2 straight.

Patriots -22 vs. Dolphins
Back to the agony of defeat.

Seahawks (NL) over Ravens
Questions about the Ravens QB has the line off.

Jets +8.5 at Titans
Jets have been awful, but that's an awfully big spread for the Titans

Vikings -6.5 vs. Redskins
Big WC game

Chargers -8.5 vs. Broncos
Tough one to predict
