For the second week in a row I got the Thursday night game right. The Browns seem to have ten RBs on the roster. Now if I could only do that with the rest of the games... Speaking of which:

Chiefs at Titans. I think the Flaming Thumbtacks can keep the ball away from Patrick Mahomes (who has been off his game lately) by riding Derrick Henry. The man is on a serious 'run' the last several games. Titans.

WFT at Packers. The Packers? At home against a WFT with no offense? Since a Week 1 hiccup the Pack and Rodgers have been rolling. Roll on Green Bay! Packers.

Bengals at Ravens. Ravens surprised me last week with a dominating performance against a good Chargers team. Can they keep the big mo against a not-a-pushover-anymore Bengals team? Lamar will figure out something. Ravens.

Panthers at Giants. Two teams headed in the same direction - DOWN! Any prediction on how much longer G-Men coach Joe Judge keeps his job? As for the Panthers... Sam Darnold played to his potential for about three games and has since returned to the dismal level. But I think the Panthers have the wherewithal to overcome the woebegone G-Men. Panthers.

Falcons at Dolphins. Dolphins managed to lose to the previously winless Jags in London last week. Now, jet-fatigued from traveling to the UK and back they host the Falcons. The Birds are still dangerous and the Dolphins are not living up to the hype they received after a semi strong 2020 season. Falcons.

Jets at Patriots. Bill Belichick just loves pitting his D against a rookie QB and Zach Jones... well, let's just say he doesn't have a lot of options at his disposal. Pats.

Eagles at Raiders. Raiders have been a bit of a surprise and the Eagles ain't going nowhere as they say. Raiders.

Lions at LA Rams. For these Lions in the Colisseum (I know they dont play in the Colisseum anymore but I couldn't resist), it will be a slaughter. Rams.

Bears at Bucs. The Bucs are banged up but not so banged up they'll drop one to the punchless Bears. Bucs.

Texans at Cardinals. At first glance it seems a mortal lock - the undefeated Cardinals against the dumpster-fire Texans at home in Arizona .... So maybe it won't be a total blowout laugher but the Cards still win. Cardinals.

Colts at Niners. I can't figure either of these two, but Wentz seems to be playing better each week. Colts.

Saints at Seahawks. No way I'm picking a team with Geno Smith as its QB (Pete Carrolll should have assured himself of a better backup). Even with Jameis Winston as the opposing QB. Sure JW will throw a couple picks. He will also throw a couple scoring bombs too. Saints.

Good Luck Everyone!

Wow! 9 Overtimes! Illinois beats Penn State.

Penn State looked sad on offense.

Looks like Mahomes is quickly becoming the ultimate “Flash in the Pan.”

The Bucs figured out how to stop them and now everyone is doing it. Big Chief Andy needs to make some adjustments.

Two prognosticators believe in the Bengals ...

How do they explain it ?
