NFL Week 5 Thread

I think an interview the week he is about to play his first game in more than a year is called a 'news peg.' Also, it's not the metaphor folks are upset about.

 

A little hyperbole, anyone?

If any of you assholes are still alive in your survivor pools, I suggest using Atlanta this week, if you haven't already.

 

I'm already out. Arizona killed me last week.

 

All the Colts need to do for a 9-7 finish is beat the Bucs, Saints, Dolphins and finish sweeping the AFC South. And the Bad Grandpas will get to host a playoff game to boot.

 

Still alive. I write out all 17 weeks before and tweak when necessary. Have Baltimore this weekend. Atlanta looks tempting... too tempting. I try to keep what I consider the best 8-10 teams in the NFL for the last 10 weeks. Surviving on mediocre teams winning at home to this point.

 

I assume Baltimore will win, but that's a lot of faith in a team that should be 0-4 and will be without its only legitimate receiving threat.

 

Bishop Sankey muffs the opening kickoff, Buffalo recovers at the 5 ... only to have it wiped out by being offsides.

 

KC-Chi over 45
GB -10
NE -9
DE -5.5

 

Just switched my ESPN eliminator from Ravens to Giants. Don't screw me, Eli, I'm still unbeaten.

Not a lot that I like on spreads this week in NFL...

Rams +9. Also love the halftime under -23.5. Packers offensive line concerns me a lot.
Seahawks +3.5 and I like them straight up.
Patriots-Cowboys OVER 50.5
Bills PK.
Raiders +5.5. Waiting for the Peyton Meltdown game. Same as I'm waiting for Michigan State to cover this year...

 

Fox's ticker just showed the Chiefs with a 1-0 lead. Nice rouge.
