Week 9 NFL Picks Part 1
Well last week went rather well for me, and I am sitting pretty at 71-49 Overall. Let’s get off to another fast start in this intra-conference clash in Cincinnati.
Bengals at Dolphins
(6-2-0)
—
(3-4-0)
—
Miami has struggled as of late, and the Bengals are coming off a blowout 49-9 victory over the Jets. Cincinnati also has four straight wins so don’t expect much to change this week.
My Pick: Bengals
Falcons at Panthers
(2-5-0)
—
(4-3-0)
—
Carolina seems to have gotten hot at the right time, while Atlanta is trying to shake off a loss to the Cardinals. Crown the Falcons the NFC’s biggest disappointment as their Super Bowl dreams vanish for good this weekend.
My Pick: Panthers
Vikings at Cowboys
(1-6-0)
—
(4-4-0)
—
It seems the gameplan for taking Adrian Peterson out of the game is proving effective for NFL defenses. If only there was a certain quarterback that could come out of retirement and join this franchise to make them relevant again….Just kidding! I don’t think even Favre would want to come out of retirement to “re-join” this team.
My Pick: Cowboys
Saints at Jets
(6-1-0)
—
(4-4-0)

My Pick: Saints
You didn’t seriously think I’d pick the Jets did you?!
Titans at Rams
(3-4-0)
—
(3-5-0)
—
As terrible as both these teams are, having a starting quarterback leading your team versus a backup leading your team is a huge advantage in the Titans favor. There’s also Chris Johnson to deal with too…
My Pick: Titans
Chiefs at Bills
(8-0-0)
—
(3-5-0)
—
Granted the Chiefs haven’t played the best competition, but they’re still 8-0 and they know how to win football games. You can’t say the same for the Bills though.
My Pick: Chiefs
Chargers at Redskins
(4-3-0)
—
(2-5-0)
—
Considering the pleasant surprise the Chargers have been this season I expect for them to get the win in our nation’s capital. Washington has talent, and I still don’t trust San Diego’s defense, but by the same token Washington’s offense has proven to be very inconsistent. Inconsistency loses football games.
My Pick: Chargers
Eagles at Raiders
(3-5-0)
—
(3-4-0)
—
Trick or treat, the Raiders will be .500 if they win this game. I think Oakland will “treat” themselves to a win, while Philadelphia “tricks” no one in the loss and commits multiple turnovers.
My Pick: Raiders
Buccaneers at Seahawks
(0-7-0)
