NFL Picks Week 8

I am back for this week of NFL picks and we have a couple good key matchups....

Tampa Bay (5-2) at Dallas (4-3)- This is our first critical game because if the Cowboys lose, they might kiss their playoff hopes goodbye and Wade Phillips might be saying good-bye. Although I actually like this matchup in the favor of the Cowboys, I just havent been all that impressed with Tampa. DAL 28-24

Washington (5-2) at Detriot (0-6)- Oh the Lions, they might not win a game all year as the road ahead is not good to say the least and the Redskins will not drop another game to a winless team. WASH 34-3

Buffalo (5-1) at Miami (2-4)- Many are saying the Bills are unproven because they havent played anybody inside their conference but they will get to prove themselves in the next couple of weeks. They shouldnt overlook the Phins as they get up for good teams, I think the Bills win by a field goal. BUF 24-21

San Diego (3-4) vs New Orelans (3-4) (at London)- "Oh you say your from London, dont ya?!" Many people are not fans of this international style but no matter what, this a huge game for both teams. I think the Saints without Reggie Bush, and Jeremy Shockey will lead to a defeat against the Chargers. SD 31-17

Kansas City (1-5) at New York Jets (3-3)- This game will get ugly as the Chiefs dont have a quarterback again and the Jets will want to respond after a defeat against Oakland. NYJ 31-0

Atlanta (4-2) at Philadelphia (3-3)- Early 2000, the Eagles were the thorn in the Falcons side during the playoffs as they could not beat them and with a damn-near must win for the Eagles, they will get it done as I am still not convinced with the Falcons. PHI 24-14

Oakland (2-4) at Baltimore (3-3)- I dont see much out of this game but the Ravens have been dealing with distraction from one guy in Terrell Suggs talking about bounties and Joe Flacco not being his quarterback. Something tells me it comes and bites them. OAK 17-14

Arizona (4-2) at Carolina (5-2)- Somewhat of a surprising matchup with two divison leaders but I think the Carolina is much tougher than people are talking about and that will create problems for the Cardinals. CAR 20-10

Cleveland (2-4) at Jacksonville (3-3)- Both teams could use a win in this one as the Browns try to stay above water and the Jags are just trying to keep pace with the Titans. I think the Browns have too much distractions going on. JAX 28-14

Cincinnati (0-7) at Houston (2-4)- How lucky are the Texans, get to rebuild that schedule with the Lions and now the Bengals, should be smooth sailing for the Texans. HOU 35-17

New York Giants 5-1) at Pittsburgh (5-1)- Battle of two very good teams but to me, I think this one will get out hand as the Steelers do not have four of their starters and the D-Line of the Giants is one of the best. NYG 31-17

Seattle (1-5) at San Francisco (2-5)- First game under the Mike Singletary era and the Seahawks will be without Matt Hassleback this week. Really hard to predict which is team is better off, I will take the home team in an ugly one. SF 14-10

Indianapolis (3-3) at Tennessee (6-0)- Probably the most critical game of the weekend as the Colts could see the change of power in the AFC South and which they will as they cannot stop the run as the combo of Chris Johnson/LenDale White will go nuts. TEN 28-17
