Week 8 Predictions

Last Week: 11-2
Season: 62-42

Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Minnesota Vikings: I know most people don't, but I really like what Greg Schiano is doing with that team, especially in the locker room.
TB: 20
MIN: 17

Carolina Panthers @ Chicago Bears: I've done nothing but trash Cam Newton all year and that isn't going to change this week against the best defense in the NFL (at the moment).
CAR: 10
CHI: 23

San Diego Chargers @Cleveland Browns: This, could be an interesting game. Its in Cleveland, in what could be terrible weather in lieu of Hurricane Sandy and the Chargers are traveling across the country, coming off about as bad a loss as possible. The Browns have been a lot better than their record would suggest and if those receivers can catch the ball, I think they have a good chance this week.
SD: 16
CLE: 19

Seattle Seahawks @ Detroit Lions: Megatron struggled mightily against Peanut Tillman last week and now he gets the best secondary in football. If Russell Wilson can lead that offense to two touchdowns, they'll win.
SEA: 20
DET: 19

Jacksonville Jaguars @ Green Bay Packers: The Jaguars sucked enough before losing their best player.
GB: 41
JAC: 13

Miami Dolphins @ New York Jets: Eventually they have to let Tebow at least lead a drive, right?
MIA: 17
NYJ: 9

Atlanta Falcons @ Philadelphia Eagles: This is a tough call. Andy Reid is 13-0 coming off of bye weeks, but the Falcons are undefeated. Philadelphia is expected to get hit with some strong winds and rain, which spells trouble for Michael Vick's turnover rate, but Atlanta isn't used to these kind of conditions at all. I'll take Philly, mostly because the Falcons aren't as good as their record suggests.
ATL: 23
PHI: 27

Washington Redskins @ Pittsburgh Steelers: Dick LeBeau's only loss to a rookie since joining the Steelers came against Troy Smith in week 17 of 2007, when Pittsburgh was resting starters. On top of that, Washington's pass defense is absolutely horrendous. Ben should have a field day regardless of the weather.
WAS: 17
PIT: 38

New England Patriots @ St. Louis Rams: New England is 0-2 against the NFC West this season, but I have a really tough time believing they'll continue that streak this weekend in London.
NE: 31
STL: 20

Indianapolis Colts @ Tennessee Titans: I had both making the playoffs in August...
IND: 23
TEN: 24

Oakland Raiders @ Kansas City Chiefs: I also had Kansas City... who have since decided they would be better off with Brady Quinn under center than Matt Cassel.
OAK: 27
KC: 20

New York Giants @ Dallas Cowboys: Tony Romo is average against every team except the Giants but Eli is undefeated at Jerry World.
NYG: 30
DAL: 29

New Orleans Saints @ Denver Broncos: Toughest call of the week.  Call me crazy, but I still think that both teams will make the playoffs. Saints are more desperate, and they just got their "real" interim Head Coach back.
NO: 34
DEN: 31

San Francisco 49ers @ Arizona Cardinals: I tried to get smart last week and picked San Francisco to lose. Twas a mistake.
SF: 23
ARI: 17
