October 8, 2016

Well, there goes our undefeated season. We were beaten by one point. I could blame it on too many penalties, our defense giving up a late game touchdown, an offensive line with two backups or a fumble that turned into us losing by one point. Enough of last week, let’s move on to week 5.

The Redskins come to Baltimore for the Battle of the Beltway. This will be the D-Line’s toughest test so far. Washington can run the ball and Kirk Cousins can stretch the field. Our defense needs to put pressure on Cousins. Kenneth Dixon RB will play in his first game of the season while Ronnie Stanley will probably miss this game so that means our young running backs will need to carry the load and control the ball. Joe was scrambling a lot last week so look for him to dump the ball off to Smith and Pitta. Our defense will dominate. Look for our power running game to break out an control the game.

Disclaimer: The following comments are not predictions but how we want the games to go. No money should change hands on these picks.

Thursday
8:30pm
Cardinals 33, 49ers 21

Sunday
1:00pm

Ravens over Redskins
This one is  for bragging right. We live in the shadow of Washington, DC but not this week. The Ravens will win with the help of Justin Tucker and Special Teams.

Browns over Patriots.
It is quite obvious that Bill Belichick reads the View and realized we were on to his cheating. The Patriots were shut out last week but Tom Brady comes back this week and the real cheating begins.

Eagles over Lions
The Philadelphia Eagles will remain undefeated.

Bears over Colts
NFC over AFC. The Colts are 1-3. It looks like their luck has run out.

Titans over Dolphins
Both AFC teams are 1-3 but we play the Dolphins in week 13 so we can cover the tie breaker then.

Vikings over Texans
NFC over AFC. The Texans are 3-1 and need another loss to stay behind the Ravens. Vikings go 5-0

Jets over Steelers
Wishful thinking but miracles do happen.

Sunday
4:05pm

Falcons over Broncos
NFC over AFC. We find ourselves rooting for Matt Ryan again. The Broncos are 4-0 and need to lose a game.

Sunday
4:25pm

Cowboys over Bengals
NFC over AFC. The Cowboys young team is proving to be the best team that they have had in a long time. A Bengals loss keeps them behind the Ravens

Rams over Bills
The Rams have some of the worst stats in the NFL but yet they are 3-1. I guess the California Sun has been good for them.

Chargers over Raiders
Both AFC Teams. The Chargers are 1-3. The Raiders are 3-1 after beating us last week. We need them to be a game behind us.

Sunday
8:30pm

Packers over Giants
Both NFC teams. The Packers needed the rest from last week’s bye. They are 2-1 but have not put up good numbers.

Monday
8:30pm

Buccaneers over Panthers
Both NFC teams. Rooting for the home team. Cam Newton may not play but the Panthers defense should make the difference for a win.

BYE: Jaguars, Chiefs, Saint, Seahawks
