Seven weeks into the NFL season and we have seen some great action so far.
We are down to one team that is still undefeated. The Arizona Cardinals stand alone as the NFL’s only team without a loss. We also have just one team that has yet to win in the Detroit Lions. As for this weekend I can guarantee that we will get some more great drama.
So here are the picks.
Lock of the week (7-0, last week Arizona was the pick)
Kansas City Chiefs over the New York Giants. This isn’t the most obvious lock of the week but I am feeling like this is the turning point for the Chiefs. They are either going to keep going down this road of underachieving or figure it out. The Giants are the right team to figure it out against.
Upset of the week (2-5, lost with the Broncos over the Browns last week)
Jacksonville Jaguars over the Seattle Seahawks. Going on a limb this week with the one win Jags over Seattle. Short week for Seahawks and extra time for Jacksonville to prepare. The Seahawks look lost at times without Russell Wilson. Hard to believe if they do lose this one that they would be (0-4) at home.
Games That I Feel Good About
Cardinals over the Packers. And still undefeated. Short week for Green Bay and the loss of a couple of key receivers will make this very difficult for Green Bay.
Bills over the Dolphins. Buffalo is just too good and Miami hasn’t won in weeks.
Bengals over the Jets. Bad matchup for New York this week and Cincinnati has found something. Bengals need to keep this thing rolling.
Rams over the Texans. This looks like a blowout and should be a blowout.
Chargers over the Patriots. New England put up over 50 points last week but they won’t have the same success this week against Los Angeles. Chargers are the pick here.
Buccaneers over the Saints. This game is a rivalry game but Tampa is playing too well offensively. Look for the Bucs to keep it going.
Cowboys over the Vikings. This might be a little closer than I am making it but I really like Dallas here in this one on the road.
The Rest Of The Games
Panthers over the Falcons
49ers over the Bears. This feels like a make or break week for SF.
Steelers over the Browns-just too many injuries for Cleveland
Lions over the Eagles. Yes, Detroit wins their first game of the season.
Titans over the Colts in a well played game.
Broncos over the Washington Football Team.
