Thanksgiving Day boredom reigned as good teams beat bad teams. Major injuries took their toll in Pittsburgh and almost led to an upset in Atlanta. To close out the week the Patriots were further exposed as pretenders on the perfect passing arm of Drew Brees and the Saints.
Green Bay Packers 34, Detroit Lions 12 (predicted: Green Bay Packers 28, Detroit Lions 24)
Happy Thanksgiving!
Green Bay Packers 28, Detroit Lions 24
Why are we forced to watch the Lions on Thanksgiving? Who is thankful for that?
Oakland Raiders 21, Dallas Cowboys 26
With the way the Cowboys are playing, the Raiders could make this competitive.
New York Giants 23, Denver Broncos 13
6 in a row for Denver?
Miami Dolphins 30, Buffalo Bills 14
New coach, same problems. The Bills are awful.
Indianapolis Colts 24, Houston Texans 21
Peyton Manning has made a career of slaughtering the Texans.
Cleveland Browns 12, Cincinnati Bengals 31
Losing to the Raiders is pretty sad, but it seems to be a trend against teams everyone thinks are “good.” Carson Palmer and company should destroy the Browns like pretty much every other team.
Carolina Panthers 20, New York Jets 21
Both these teams are headed in the wrong direction.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 6, Atlanta Falcons 38
The Falcons should be able to shrug off a tough loss to the Giants at home against the miserable Bucs.
Washington Redskins 17, Philadelphia Eagles 22
I don’t know why I think the Redskins will score more against the Eagles than they did against the Cowboys, but oh well.
Seattle Seahawks 16, St. Louis Rams 23
The Seahawks still aren’t a good team. I can see the Rams pulling through in this one.
Kansas City Chiefs 17, San Diego Chargers 35
The Chiefs managed to beat the Steelers (if anyone can explain that one, drop me an e-mail) and hope to carry that momentum into San Diego. The only problem is that the Chargers are the new division leaders and look like they have no intent of dropping a game to the lowly Chiefs.
Jacksonville Jaguars 17, San Francisco 49ers 20
San Francisco should load up against Maurice Jones Drew and force David Garrard to make plays.
Chicago Bears 18, Minnesota Vikings 28
The Bears woes should continue against the red-hot Vikings.
Arizona Cardinals 21, Tennessee Titans 31
Kurt Warner says he’ll play, but otherwise a Matt Leinart-Vince Young matchup would be kind of entertaining.
Pittsburgh Steelers 20, Baltimore Ravens 23
The Steelers have problems everywhere, starting with Ben Roethlisberger’s concussion and ending with their dismal special teams coverage. Both teams need a win to keep their postseason hopes alive.
New England Patriots 34, New Orleans Saints 38
This should be a MNF game for the ages as two of the best offenses in the league are on display. The Patriots have a chance to get a meaningful road win and spoil the Saints’ chances for a perfect season. Drew Brees and the Saints are as good in the Superdome as the Patriots are in Foxboro, but I wouldn’t expect this to be a defensive contest.
Major upsets in Oakland and Kansas City keep the NFC North playoff race interesting. Not many surprises elsewhere, with the Browns claiming the title of 2009’s worst team by losing to the Lions in a surprising 38-37 “thriller.”
Miami Dolphins 24, Carolina Panthers 17 (predicted: Miami Dolphins 16, Carolina Panthers 27)
Several important division games this week, Washington-Dallas, NYJ-NE, and Houston-Tennessee.
Miami Dolphins 16, Carolina Panthers 27
With Ronnie Brown placed on IR with a foot injury, the Wildcat loses its key player. I don’t think Ricky Williams and Pat White will be able to pick up the slack.
Pittsburgh Steelers 28, Kansas City Chiefs 13
After basically surrenduring the division to the Bengals, the Steelers need wins to stay in the wild card race.
Atlanta Falcons 27, New York Giants 31
Hopefully the Giants figured out their many problems during their bye. Matt Ryan has not looked sharp in recent weeks, and a dome team playing in New York in mid-November usually favors the home team.
New Orleans Saints 42, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 24
Despite their first win and making the Dolphins kick a game winning field goal, the Bucs are still a bad team. The Saints know this.
San Francisco 49ers 21, Green Bay Packers 25
Aaron Rodgers is not Jay Cutler, and should be able to put up a respectable score against the 49ers.
Seattle Seahawks 20, Minnesota Vikings 31
Adrian Peterson and Brett Favre look to improve to 10-1 against another injury-wracked Seahawks team.
Cleveland Browns 13, Detroit Lions 20
FailBowl 2009.
Buffalo Bills 10, Jacksonville Jaguars 38
After firing their coach the Bills took a step in the right direction. Unfortunately firing Dick Jauron doesn’t give the Bills a run defense.
Washington Redskins 17, Dallas Cowboys 20
Maybe the Redskins can play spoiler to the Cowboys’ postseason chances again in Dallas.
Indianapolis Colts 31, Baltimore Ravens 28
Last season against Baltimore Peyton Manning led the Colts to a 31-3 victory. While weather might be a factor in Baltimore, the Ravens defense isn’t any better this time around while the Colts are hot.
Arizona Cardinals 33, St. Louis Rams 20
Arizona has been good on the road this year, and the Rams don’t exactly offer up a lot of resistance.
New York Jets 13, New England Patriots 37
Think Tom Brady is pissed that the Patriots lost? I think so too. At home against division rivals the Patriots will be looking to take out their frustrations on a fluondering Jets squad.
Cincinnati Bengals 21, Oakland Raiders 9
The Bengals defense came up big against Pittsburgh, and now they get to deal with the challenge of stopping Bruce Gradkowski. Hmmm…
San Diego Chargers 24, Denver Broncos 23
The AFC West is more or less decided in this one, and these teams are going in opposite directions. The Broncos still have a decent defense but are clearly sliding into mediocrity as everyone expected them to before the season started.
Philadelphia Eagles 20, Chicago Bears 23
Brian Westbrook is out again, this time probably for longer than two weeks. The Eagles lost on the road to the Chargers, and something tells me that the Bears are going to actually try this time.
Tennessee Titans 34, Houston Texans 31
Chris Johnson is putting up MVP-like numbers even though he won’t get it, and even though the Titans started 0-7. The Texans have trouble stopping the run, but this game should be a shootout.
