PUNT!

* If my team had to travel to London in mid-season, I'd be pissed!  Why doesn't the NFL just give them the Browns and call it a day, mate.

* The perfect storm is headed towards Philadelphia.

* Can the Giants stay undefeated in JerryWorld?

Let's roll some Bagels...



 

 

 

Football Sunday - Week Eight:

Friday Line ~ NYDN

 

 

 

Giants -1 1/2 (COWBOYS)

Dallas is beat up.  Big Blue is primed to enjoy some "Glory Hole" Texas style.
WIN; 29-24 Giants

 

 

JETS -2 (Dolphins)

The Jets defense should be good enough this week to enable a win, in spite of Marc Sanchez, Tim Tebow, and Tony Sparano.  Playing desperate should help too.
LOSS; 30-9 Dolphins

 

 

Patriots -7 (RAMS) *London

This is a bloody shame.  Why don't they move the Pro Bowl to England and play the game in the week between the championship games and the Super Bowl.  Just sayin'
WIN; 45-7 Patriots

 

 

TITANS -3 1/2 (Colts)

Colts will need more than Luck on the road.  The Titans have their moments.
LOSS; 19-13 Colts

 

 

PACKERS -15 1/2 (Jaguars)

The spread says it all.  If the Pack is going to win by fifteen, then they will win by seventeen as well.
LOSS; 24-15 Packers

 

 

BROWNS +2 1/2 (Chargers)

It's the Browns.  I originally thought Chargers.  That's why I am reversing course, and going against myself.  Brilliant!
WIN; 7-6 Browns

 

 

Falcons +2 1/2 (EAGLES)

Super storm, Hurricane (Matt) Ryan is headed towards Philly.  When it rains, it typhoons in Philly.  Andy Reid was made to suffer this season.  Only his team can save him now.
WIN; 30-17 Falcons

 

 

LIONS -2 (Seahawks)

Seattle is a different team when away from home.  Detroit might finally be taking this season seriously.
WIN; 28-24 Lions

 

 

BEARS -7 1/2 (Panthers)

Sometimes bruised ribs does the soul some good.  I'm looking for the Bears to keep on growling.
LOSS; 23-22 Bears

 

 

Redskins +5 (STEELERS)

I'm officially downgrading my opinion of the Steelers for a week.  They deserve it.  I like the Skins to cover.
LOSS; 27-12 Steelers

 

 

Raiders +1 (CHIEFS)

...Because whenever I see a home team laying just one point, what's the use?
WIN; 26-16 Raiders

 

 

BRONCOS -6 (Saints)

No defense..., no win for the Saints.  The fireworks should be nice though.
WIN; 34-14 Broncos

 

 

49ers -7 (CARDINALS)

The Cardinals are faltering of late.  San Fran wants to hit the reset button, and get back to fundamentals.
WIN; 24-3 49ers

 

 

 

Schmear of the Week:

BEARS -7 1/2
LOSS
