I'm picking the Browns tonight at home



I have lived as a warrior. I have died as a god. Having suffered the ultimate sacrifice, I have been denied release. I...I will defeat Olympus. I will have my revenge

Well my switch is looking awesome right about now...



Hoyer dead, Browns lose

Feeling a bit better now!

I was a little scared at first when Hoyer went down. Feeling glad that I picked the Browns.

These Bills wouldn't be so bad if they had a QB. Sigh...


Oh, I dunno: coughing up 37 to a Weeden-led offense imples that they're still pretty bad. Not to mention that the Browns lost their QB first.

The Bills offense completely collapsed after Manuel went out though (aside from Spiller doing his job to finish that drive). But yes, we need to be fair and acknowledge that the Browns had to play with their (now) backup QB for a much longer time.

So now that the Browns won, shall I change your picks that differ from mine to match mine?

Flip the Falcons pick please!

Bears could've been 4-0 right now. Cutler couldn't remain mentally stable and they blew away the middle of the game to a strong Lion team. They will rebound in Chicago for a narrow win on a hot NO team that will be overly cocky.

As for the rest of my reasoning... BECAUSE I SAID SO!

Come on, superchunk. The Bears are masters of blowing their division lead and sliding to third. There's no way you believe that they can stop the Saints.


Of course they can. #1, the Saints don't do as well outside a dome. #2, Sean Peyton may break his leg again. #3, Drew Brees may die in a horrible accident. #4, a meteor might land on the Saints' sideline, murdering everyone.

You just don't know when it comes to football...

Validated.


Reason #5: The Saints are 0-3 in Chicago in the Sean Payton era. Uh oh, I just gave everyone a free point.
