When was the last time we reached the conference championship round of the playoffs and you found yourself able to make legitimate arguments for all four of the remaining teams to win the Super Bowl? It doesn’t happen often, but it has most certainly happened this year. Clearly, we will be watching the four best […]

Last week, I decided to take the week off, since all four games were pretty much no-brainers. I didn’t expect four slaughters, but I did anticipate the four winners correctly. This week, things won’t be so cut and dry. There is only one game that I feel warm and fuzzy making a projection about, and […]

With one week remaining in the regular season, the playoff teams are locked up in the AFC, with the final order of things yet to be determined. In the NFC, things are a bit crazier, with eight teams still in the race. As much as we all hate predictions, we all still make them, so […]

This is a strange season indeed. With three weeks remaining in the regular season, only New England and Dallas were guaranteed playoff berths, and only the Patriots had locked up their division. Seattle joined that party after beating the hapless Lambs this past Thursday, but the playoff picture as a whole is still wide open. […]

Okay, so it took until week 5, but I’ve finally got my second wind. After struggling around .500 for the first few weeks, I finally picked an upset correctly and finished 3-0 for the week. So do I feel confident that all is well and I’m finally figuring out this great entertainment machine that we […]

Okay, I give up. Just when you think you’ve got this league figured out, it all gets turned upside down again. For example, I figured that Rivers and the Chargers had enough offensive power to go to Miami and give the Dolphins a good battle, leaving town as the victor. The problem is, the Chargers […]

Another week, another “Upset” loss. I think I’ve given up on that category this season. I guess that’s why it’s called the “Upset of the Week”! Let’s focus on the positive. I’ve picked the Game of the Week correctly for five consecutive weeks. The Lock of the Week has pretty much lived up to its […]

Here I was, eagerly anticipating another 3-0 week. I was feeling a bit cocky after correctly picking the Browns to upset the Ravens. All I needed was a Packer home victory over the visiting Bears and I had it. Then, in a flash, it was over. My perfect record for the week was smashed when […]

Now that the summer camps and pre-season games are behind us, we can finally look forward to the upcoming season. I’m sure you’d agree with me that predictions of playoff contenders and Super Bowl champions at this point in time are, at the very least, educated guess work. At the very most, they are ridiculous […]

First of all, let’s acknowledge that last week’s divisional round lived up to expectations. It was full of exciting, hard-hitting football with lots of big plays. Okay, so I only picked two out of four games correctly. I’m okay with that. The two games I missed were both decided on the final play of the […]
