I have to agree. When I look at the match-ups, there are
a lot of IDK's ... especially the morning games, and in particular,
the first 5 games of The Pick'em Contest:

Bengals, vs. Jaguars
Cardinals, vs. Vikings
Chiefs, vs. Colts
Eagles, vs. Bills - Both teams lost close games, and will be in-the-hunt for a win.
Question is, can/will Philadelphia lose 4 games in-a-row

13-3 this week. Called the Bengels upset.

I say Bengals, Cards, Colts and Eagles in these games.

12-4. again.

I'm actually glad this week's picks include some toss-ups. Gives me a chance to possibly make up some ground since I'm stuck tied at "6th" with about a million guys in front of me.

Those are tough to call but Titans vs Steelers and Bears vs Lions are the games giving me trouble.

taking Cards @ Minnesota

Philly @ Bills - thats right. i'm taking buffalo at home. i feel the eagles run defense will continue to struggle.

the only pick i had trouble making with conviction is Tennessee @ Pittsburgh. With J.Harrison out and their defense not performing, i'm leary of a hot Tennessee team coming in and exploiting a suspect D.

i took the vikings and philly

vikings are at home and cardinals are not good on the road also the cards D is pretty horrible and when AP is your best player against a suspect D i like there chances

as for philly i dont see them losing 4 games in a row bills run the spread offense and philly D can stop thaat there weakness is against TE and over the midle which buffalo doesnt do

i took titants aging slow D cant stop CJ and hasselback is doing pretty decent

also big ben and rashad is injrued

im 6-5 this week so far.

didnt expect buffalo, oak, seattle, kc, to win. And i for some reason thought arizona was going to end their losing skid today and get a win vs vikings.

Same here, I dislike the Cardinals, but picked them to win yesterday. Was that ever a slaughter

Second guessed the Steelers game as well. Every time I do that, I jack my picks. At this point, I
stand at 9, and 3. The best I can do now, is 10-3 on week 5, only if the Lions beat 'da Bears.

At one point yesterday, I was staring 1-7 in-the-face ... then, teams started to rebound. KC won,
the Saints came back, 'da Raiders won, and the Bengals pulled out a win. It was looking very
shaky for a minute.
