Not even factoring the spread which could get ugly for you (24-17 Broncos, LOL), there's 5-8 losses there depending on how the games that scare me go.

No way San Fran or the Rams come close in those games. No need to be worried there. And San Diego has proven to be less than stellar, Colts will pull it off.

I don't know what other ones your seeing, of course your probably still on the Cardinals cock.

Vikings, Dolphins, Falcons and yes I am still going down on Warner & Co.

The Vikings screw me every week (win when I pick loss, lose when I pick win), but so do the Jaguars and I had to pick one.

At least the first 3 are games that could go either way. I hear you 100% on Vikes/Jags.

Seriously? He's a God in NCAA Basketball or whatever, but I think he sucks calling anything else. Pays way too close attention to the punters and their hangtime/stats. And I noticed Werder reporting on the Jets/Titans too. Hilarious.

Vikings 14 Jags 0.. although I have no faith in that lead holding.

I think he's solid doing football, although not nearly what he is for basketball. He's still better then half of the Fox guys. Unfortunately, he's with CBS. I'd put him over Ian Eagle's crew, and probably 3 or 4 of the Fox crews.

One guy I think is VERY under-rated, Matt Vasgersian. It's a shame he's always stuck with the Lions or some other crappy game.

And I'm STILL trying to figure out how Buck/Aikman got sent to Dallas instead of NYG/ARI.

JaMarcus Russell is 10 of 11 today. I can't imagine that the Bronco's secondary sucks that much, so I'm going to say he must have gotten extremely lucky on some of those passes.

Probably will, which isn't going to make the Longhorn fans too happy next week. Granted, Oklahoma might deserve it because of their non-conference wins over Cincy and TCU.

Head on over to burntorangenation.com, they were already spinning it last night at about halftime of the OU/Tech game. Basically their argument is OU played two really bad non conference teams, lost to Texas on a neutral site, didn't beat Missouri, and ran the score up on Tech.

Basically the Big 12's big four have all won the games against each other at home. If OU goes into Stillwater and beats OSU, it would be the only game the road team won which I personally think should be the trump card over Texas since their best true road game win was Kansas.

Part of the problem I think is that the writer keep trying to one-up themselves. Also, they just write the season as it goes on so they end up writing themselves into dead ends.

Yeah. The last season 2 years ago was alright, but you could tell the quality was lacking. I think Redemption will be good, but I'm worried for the season at the whole. Just don't want to see what was a fantastic show fall apart.

I remember it happening to That 70's Show a few years ago. Sometimes you should just call it quits a season sooner. Hopefully they prove me wrong.
