The official football picks thread

My upset pick of the week to the shigrin of LL players is
Kansas City beating the NY Giants.

You heard me!! KC is like 47-3 at home in last 50 games.
They are 0-3 and this is the NFL.
Temps is the 40's.
And of course mine and Targetguy's brilliant pick of Seattle losing to Indy

Not a good idea to pick home teams to lose, no matter what team it is.
Remember Detroit?

lol, last year the week Klink picked KC in the LL was the first game they'd won all season (if not one of the only ones!)

I like the Detroit Tiger to score 1 run and lose the American league Central to Minnesota today.

No way KC beats the Gmen. NYG are the best team in the NFL right now.

Lock of the day: Indy beats SEA by whatever the hell the spread is and Ravens beat the Pats, ignoring the spread. They don't need the points, the Ravens are the #2 best team in the NFL.

Also, GB to cover at home vs MIN.

It was the ONLY game they won that season. KC finished 1-11 last year. I picked them week 4 and they got their only win.

So obviously I picked them again week 4.

Sweating this one hardcore.

KC rattled off 12 straight home wins vs. NFC foes beginning with a 20-17 OT victory vs. the N.Y. Giants (9/10/95), a streak that was snapped with a 13-3 loss vs. the N.Y. Giants (9/23/01).

That was a decade ago.

I bet a JAX/TB straight up bet on centsports today. Paid over 8:1. I rule.

still up in the air about tonights mnf football game. I dont want to let my hate for brett favre skew my decision.

[kingsnthahole]

As much as i hate Favre, I still think his team has more weapons than the Fudge-Packers. Given, the Packers D is LEGIT, i feel that old man Favre and A.P. will take the game over. If this game becomes a scorefest, which it may, look for the Vikes to give the ball to Favre to do with as he pleases, and A.P. will be forgotten about. But remember last year, A.P. ran wild for 192 Yds. and 2 touchdowns. My picks are as follows...

250 untis on the over @ 47 Pts.

100 units on the Packers to beat the spread @ 3.5

if you get offered Minn -3 or less, take Minnesota


Minnesota 27-Green Bay24

:Happy thirsty thursday everyone!
Are you ready for some football picks???!?!?!!

BIG GAME TONIGHT!
No. 22 Nebraska @ No.18 Missouri

this is gonna be a great game, guaranteed.
Both teams are off to a solid start of the season, and approaching the midway point...

I think Mizzou wins this one by atleast 7, mostly because 3 of Nebraskas DB's are injured/out...2 safeties and a cornerback. And we all know how Mizzou is a "pass first" type of team. Nebraska will score some points but will fall short in the early 4th quarter in this game. One thing that bothers me is how well they played defense against Va. Tech. They lost 16-15 to a top contender in the BCS running. My pick for this game is either Missouri beating the spread at 3.5(100 units), or Missouri moneyline(50 units), as well as the UNDER @50 Pts.(200 units)
