Sundays are for Football!!


NFL SUNDAY!!!

Ive had a great start to the NFL season, and i look to continue that trend tomorrow! I have a nice handfull of games, and i hope you will follow!

49ers @ Vikings (-7)-

This should be a hard hitting, smash mouth football game with lots of running. The revamped 49ers defense has looked great so far this season and is only giving up 13 points per game including a great defensive game at Arizona. Frank Gore had a great game last week, and even though he is going against a tough defense look for him to find his holes. If Shaun Hill continues to minimize his mistakes, and the defense stands tall this could be a very low scoring and close game. I love the match up of Adrian Peterson vs Patrick Willis, as it should be a hard hitting battle. Pick- 49ers (+7)

Washington Redskins @ Detroit Lions (+6.5)- Once again as you have notice, i love home dogs even if they are the Lions. Even though the Lions have lost their first two games against tough teams they look improved. Their problem so far has been turnovers, so you should see a heavy dose of Kevin Smith today vs a lackluster Redskins defense. The  Redskins barely pulled out a win at home vs in my mind the NFL's worst team. I think this could actually be the Lions first win in a long long time as long as they minimize turnovers and put pressure on Jason Campbell. You might call me crazy here, but i have a feelilng this could be the day for the Lions. Pick Lions (+6.5)

Jacksonville Jaguars @ Houston Texans (-3.5)- After a tough week one loss to the Jets, the Texans came back strong behind the arm of Matt Shaub. Shaub looked great last week, and finally starting using his go to man again in Andre Johnson. Slaton has had a slow start to the year, but this should be a good spot for him to get going. The Texans beat a very good Titans team last week, and that was on the road. The Jaguars are not as good as i expected this year, and Garrard has not looked comfortable. I still think Jones-Drew is one of the premier backs in the NFL, but he has no help. The Jaguars gave up a ton of points last week to the Cardinals, and look for the Titans to do the same. Pick- Texans -3.5

Chicago Bears @ Seattle Seahawks (+1)- If you watched the 2nd half of the Seahawks game last week, you know why im picking the Bears in this one. Seneca Wallace is not Matt Hasselback, and he doesnt have the tools at receiver to move the ball on this tough defense. Julius Jones and Justin Forsett will have tough time moving the ball as well, and Matt Forte should be ready for his breakout game on the season. Cutler finally looked more comfortable last week, and let the Bears to an impressive come back win at the end of the game. I think this Bears team could win that division, and this is a big game for them. Pick Bears (-1)

Indy Colts @ Arizona Cardinals (-2.5)- I love Peyton Manning in most games, but i really love him as a dog in a night game vs a defense that can be beat. Look for Peyton and company to have a huge game through the air in this high scoring affair. The Cardinals have looked bi-polar the first couple of weeks, and tried to let the Jaguars back in the game second half last week. They still havent seemed to click yet on either side of the ball. This will be a tough matchup for the Cardinals secondary, and Dallas Clark always causes match up problems. Pick Colts (+2.5)

KC/Phi over 38.5
