Fearless Football Predictions: Week 7

Inspired by the movie "Two For The Money" I aim for 80%. Here's what I'm thinking:

Bengals over the Steelers: It's really tempting to lean towards the Steelers with their big game experience and the fact that the Bengals could be overrated having not beaten any good teams yet. But with injuries taking their toll and the Bengals being at home I'm tempted to lean towards them. Should be the game of the week but the Bengals win in overtime.

Chargers over the Eagles: The Eagles are at home and coming off the bye but I'm really high on the Chargers who are only 3-3 because they played one game without TE Antonio Gates and have had a brutal schedule. Should be another great game though.

Chiefs over the Dolphins: Moved up because of Hurricane Wilma which means nothing other than that you should bring an umbrella if you're going to the game. The game itself will be raining rushing touchdowns from the Chiefs as they should easily pound the Dolphins.

Lions over the Browns: Following last week's game Browns head coach Romeo Crenel said his team has to get back to basics. If this were Wall Street everybody would be selling the Browns. Which is why I'm picking the Lions despite their struggles.

Packers over the Vikings: Chasing 8 I have to go with the Vikings knowing that Brian is likely to pick the Packers. Plus the Vikings can't be this bad and the Packers only win was against the Saints and they are really banged up on the offensive line.

Redskins over the 49ers: Now that Alex Smith is the QB the injury depleted and not that good to begin with 49ers might not win a game.

Seahawks over the Cowboys: The Cowboys have looked good so far but they don't have a running game and the Seahawks always win at home.

Cardinals over the Titans: The Cardinals passing game has come along now that Josh McGown is the starting QB and the Titans have a weak secondary so the Cardinals should be able to win easily.

Ravens over the Bears: Should be won by field goals and defense and the edge usually goes to the home team but I like the Ravens defense to prove to everyone that they are still an elite unit.

Broncos over the Giants: The Giants are a good team but not as good as the 5-1 Broncos who have been one of the early eason surprises so far. Except the Broncos to control the time of possession with their running game, taking the ball out of Eli Manning's hands.

Bills over the Raiders: Playing without Randy Moss, no chance. Playing with Willis McGahee, good chance.

Falcons over the Jets: Both mascots can fly but only one team has a player who can (see Vick, Michael.) The Falcons should destroy the Jets which is why I can't wait to watch the game with Brian M.

Rams over the Saints: The Rams almost beat the Colts before losing QB Marc Bulger to injury. That should favor the Saints but the thing is I think Rams backup Jamie Martin is better. Expect the Rams to roll at home.

Colts over the Texans: The only undefeated team against the only winless one. I think you know who I'm picking.
