Pigskin Pick'ems


11/26/2009

Matt Kuzawa (4-0 last week, 30-14 overall)

Packers 37 Lions 20 - Aaron Rodgers will mash the Lions secondary, and Pepper's passing will be painful to watch. Not a good combination.

Giants 20 Broncos 13 - Both teams are in a bit of a funk, but the Giants experience gives them a leg up on the Broncos.

Patriots 37 Saints 33 - The game of the B's ... Brady, Belicheck, Brees, Bush. Beeeautiful.

Ravens 19 Steelers 16 - This is going to be a war. Talk about a completely opposite game than the Pats-Saints game. Neither team is playing up to the level they are capable of and one team's goals will be crushed in the end.

Greg Monahan (4-0 last week, 33-15 overall)

Packers 24 Lions 23 - I'd pick the Lions if Matthew Stafford was playing, but the Packers should edge out an amped up Lions team on Turkey Day.

Giants 31 Broncos 17 - The Broncos have been in a complete free-fall these last 4 weeks, and it should continue on Thanksgiving against New York.

Saints 38 Patriots 31 Saints - I can't wait for this Monday night game. Both defenses will be overwhelmed, but the Saints D should have the edge over New England.

Ravens 13 Steelers 10 - Both teams in desperate need of a win, with Roethlisberger's status uncertain, I'll give the edge to the Ravens.

Jared Greenleaf (4-0 last week, 30-14 overall)

Packers 28 Lions 10 - With no Matthew Stafford or Calvin Johnson, the Lions are hopeless. Aarons Rodgers goes for a big Turkey Day throwing for three touchdowns.

Giants 31 Broncos 7 - The Broncos have been on a downward spiral ever since Baltimore beat some sense into them. Meanwhile, I look for the Giants running game to take it to a damaged Bronco defense.

Patriots 41 Saints 31 - Drew Brees and the unbeaten Saints have been nothing more than stellar this season. However, they will run into an angry Patriots team determined to overcome the Belicheck fiasco against the Colts.

Ravens 20 Steelers 10 - In arguably the most physical rivalry in football, the Ravens defense will show up against the Steelers offense no matter who the starting quarterback may be.

Aaron Brandt (3-1 last week, 29-15 overall)

Packers 34 Lions 17 - The Packers are better than the Browns, and an injured Matthew Stafford can't help the Lions.

Giants 29 Broncos 23 - Eli Manning might have found his stride last week, which means trouble for Denver.

Saints 36 Patriots 27 - New England hasn't been consistent enough this season to beat the Saints.

Steelers 27 Ravens 16 - Joe Flacco has come down to earth this year, and the Ravens can't seem to finish teams off this year.
