2008 SEASON
WEEK 10 PICKS
By DonCanabis/D'BOYZ

Many of you didn't got my Thursday's pick but, if you were wondering I took Cleveland. This 2008 season is getting ridiculous. For three quarters I was right on the money on my prediction. I said Quinn will manage the game not make stupid mistakes and get rid of the ball quickly taking advantage of Denver's injured and bad defense. Also I said that Denver without a RB will become one dimensional making it easier for Cleveland's defense to defend.
Well all things were going right with a 13 point lead in the 4th quarter and in 5 minutes the whole game changed. Ending with another loss in my season.
I did good last week in the straight up but bad on the spread once again too many close games. I still cashed in by taking Atlanta,Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.
Lets see how we do this week I already started with the left foot.
Jacksonville at Detroit 6.5 Ovr/Und 44
Culpepper 4th era starts Sunday. Expect a simple playbook with plays they run that are familiar with what he knows. The Jaguars have been awful.I expect them to win but it will be close Culpepper isn't what he used to, but the man can still throw a deep ball to a tall fast receiver.
Straight: Jax
Spread: Det
Ovr/Und: Und
Tennessee at Chicago 3 Ovr/Und 38.5
The Titans play their second NFC north team in 2 weeks and this will end with the same result, with Grossman back in the lineup, don't expect the Bears doing much. They Face a Titans defense that has a way of producing turnovers and being that Rex is the turnover machine this will be done by halftime.
Straight: Ten
Spread: Ten
Ovr/Und: Ovr
Buffalo at New England-4 Ovr/Und 41
The bills after a hot start have gone to Alaska the past few weeks. You have to give Belichick props for keeping this team together after the loss of Brady. This is a clear example of how hard the 2008 season is to predict. both teams have solid teams with some small weaknesses and yet you don0t know who's going to show up on Sunday.
The bills need this win with a 0-2 record in the division they need this week if they want to make it to the playoffs. take the upset.
Straight: Buf
Spread: Buf
Ovr/Und: Ovr
New Orleans at Atlanta -1 Ovr/Und 50
Ryan has been a good surprise this season, the kid has looked good. Atlanta has been perfect at home they have a good defense and running game. if this gets into a shootout New Orleans Might have a chance I just don't think Ryan can keep up with Drew. But, N.O defense can stop the run and New Orleans hasn't been good on the road. Take the Home
Straight: Atl
Spread: Atl
Ovr/Und: und
St. Louis at New York Jets -8 Ovr/Und 44.5
Well the rams hot streak it's over. Jackson wont play so they go back on being one dimensional. The Jets have been up and down all year. they are playing good at home
Straight: NYJ
Spread: NYJ
Ovr/Und: Ovr
Seattle at Miami -8.5 Ovr/Und 43.5
Miami has been playing great defense, Seattle has no swagger and they're no good at the road, and they're still without their QB take the home team.
Straight: Mia
Spread: Sea
Ovr/Und: Und
Green Bay at Minnesota -2.5 Ovr/Und 45
Green Bay lost a close game against the undefeated Titans while Minnesota almost blew a huge lead against Houston. Minnesota it's just avrg, take GB

Carolina at Oakland 9.5 Ovr/Und 37
The panthers are playing well, Oakland it's the complete opposite they're just a mess. take the panthers

Ovr/Und: Ovr
Kansa City at San Diego-15.5 Ovr/Und 47.5
This division it's just not good. There are no more disappointing and talented teams in the NFL like San Diego and Dallas so much high expectations for two teams that haven't delivered.
Straight: SD
Spread: KC
Ovr/Und: Und
Indianapolis at Pittsburgh -3 Ovr/Und 42
Pittsburgh has the best defense, they'll be without Parker and maybe Ben but the team looked good with Byron. this will be the last nail on the coffin for the colts season.
Straight: Pit
Spread: Pit
Ovr/Und: und
New York at Philadelphia -3 Ovr/Und 43
New York has shown to all doubters that their Super Bowl win was no fluke , the eagles with Westbrook back look completely different and they're bouncing back. it will be close a good divisional fight, take the home team this time.
Straight: Phi
Spread: Phi
Ovr/Und: Ovr

Baltimore has found their mojo, the offense is working, they're being dominant and playing at a high level.
