Fearless Football Predictions: Week 16

Two weeks two go which means just two chances left to have a perfect week. Last week I somehow knew that the Chargers were going to upset the Colts. This week what other crazy Shames-o-matic prediction will come true? You'll have to read on to see:

Redskins over the Giants: Since I'm no longer picking against Brian this must mean that I actually think that the Redskins will win. Which they will. They're one of the hottest teams in the league right now, are desperate to win out and make the playoffs, and most importantly the Giants have run out of co-owners to die and provide inspiration. Which means no 36-0 thumbing, a closer game, and a Redskins win on a late Eli Manning interception.

Bengals over the Bills: Not only do I think the Bengals will win but I think they'll score 40 points, and win by three touchdowns.

Cleveland over Pittsburgh: Upset city in steel city as the Charlie Frye and the Browns knock the Steelers from playoff contention.

San Diego over Kansas City: You don't knock off the undeafeted Colts just to lose the following week. The Chargers win over the Colts guarantees that they'll run the table and make the playoffs.

St. Louis over San Francisco: Like a large salad for a super model, the high powered Rams offense should be too much for the 49ers.

Miami over Tennessee: Ricky Williams will run for a 100 yards, Chris Chambers (no relation to Kim) will catch 10 balls for 130, and the Dolphins will win easily.

Detroit over New Orleans: If New Orleans wins, embattled Lions CEO Matt Millen will probably get a 5 year contract extension considering how things are run these days in Detroit.

Tampa Bay over Atlanta: In a game that could determine which of these teams makes the playoffs, the Chris Simms, Michael Clayton, Cadillac Williams led Bucs will get the job done and start a nice playoff run that could continue for 10 years.

Carolina over Dallas: The Cowboys collapse will be complete after Steve Smith burns them for mutliple scoring plays over 40 yards.

Houston over Jacksonville: Having already won last week the Texans might look to continue their roll rather than play for Reggie Bush. Considering how close they came to winning some of their earlier games they might not even be that bad of a team.

Arizona over Philly: Hey, why not?

Denver over Oakland: The Raiders unsettled QB situation and the fact that the Broncos killed the Raiders in their first meeting this year made me lean towards the mile high men.

Seattle over Indy: The Colts could still be in shock from last week and the death of Tony Dungy's son could prove to be a distraction. Plus the Seahawks are the NFC's best team. Could be a Super Bowl preview.

Chicago over Greenbay: The Rex Grossman show should continue with another big performance.

Baltimore over Minnesota: The Ravens aren't as bad as they've played this year, are they? We'll find out this week.

Patriots over the Jets: The Patriots are almost back to 100% and Tom Brady is having a MVP year which doesn't bode well for the Jets but does for their fans who have been rooting against the team since week 9.
