I don't think I did too bad last week. I went 9-7 and picked a lot of road teams, I would've gotten more games right if I would have picked the right road teams though; Road teams went 11-5 last week. Anyway, each week I will announce my picks here (winners in bold) and keep track of my overall performance throughout the year. That way I can check my blog and remind myself that I'm either an NFL idiot or a NFL genius.
 
Panthers @ Vikings
Bills @ Dolphins
Giants @ Eagles
Saints @ Packers
Texans @ Colts
Lions @ Bears
Browns @ Bengals
Bucs @ Falcons
Raiders @ Ravens
Cardinals @ Seahawks
Rams @ 49ers
Titans @ Chargers
Patriots @ Jets
Chiefs @ Broncos
Redskins @ Cowboys
Steelers @ Jaguars

I took 11 home teams this week. Giants over Eagles is my mini upset of the week and my mortal lock of the week is the Ravens over the Raiders. (I would pick Colts over Texans for the lock, but I don't want to jinx my team.) I have a bad feeling the Lions are going to upset the Bears, but I just couldn't pick them and if the Patriots play like last week, which I expect they won't, they could very well be beat by the upstart Jets.

The Colts by the way looked pretty good on Sunday night, hopefully their running game will get on track against the Texans, and sometime in the next few weeks either Addai or Rhodes will assert himself as the dominant running back, because I'm not a big proponent for running back by committee.

Tigers Update: With 16 games to go, they lead the Twins by 1 game and the White Sox by 3 games. So this weekend I'm rooting for Frank Thomas to crush some homers against his former team. And it should be noted that Santana of the Twins will be facing his toughest opponent yet this year: The Great Fausto Carmona. The heavily favored Carmona has a fantastic record of 1-9 with a lovely ERA of 6.24. Let's just concede this one to the Twinkies now. If Carmona could possibly win tonight, I will headline my next blog thanking him.

And finally, after nearly 4 months, I completed 500 subs. Jared Fogle eat your heart out. Seriously, I received the little rocket ship emblem, and I was surprised to see that I am now one of the top 1000 users. I'm going to keep plugging along to remain in that group and hopefully down the road I'll be in the top 500.
