Week 9 Pick'em

Season Record: 82-34 (Tied for #1 out of 8 ESPN analysts)

New York Jets @ Buffalo
The Bills have an opportunity to really put some distance between themselves and the Jets.  I'm not ready to give up on the Jets as a playoff team just yet.  Revis will remove Stevie Johnson so Fitzpatrick will need to get Scott Chandler and David Nelson involved early.

Pick: Jets

Seattle @ Dallas
The Seahawks couldn't win at home last week, how can I expect them to win a road game with the quarterbacks they have.

Pick: Cowboys

Atlanta @ Indianapolis
This could be a trap game for the Falcons....if it was against anyone but the Colts.

Pick: Falcons

Miami @ Kansas City
What a difference a month can make.  At the start of October, Todd Haley was on the hot seat.  As we move into November, he has the Chiefs right back in the playoff race.  The Dolphins really want Andrew Luck.

Pick: Chiefs

Tampa Bay @ New Orleans
The Bucs always play well against divisional opponents so expect a close battle.  The Saints have looked 'off' the last few weeks and I have to think Sean Payton's injury has something to do with it.

Pick: Saints

San Francisco @ Washington
The 49ers didn't seem bothered when they made the cross-country trip to Detroit.  The Redskins are banged up and in need of a long-term answer at QB.

Pick: 49ers

Cleveland @ Houston
It's time for Houston to stop thinking about winning the division and start thinking about home-field advantage.  The Browns got bit by the Madden Curse.

Pick: Texans

Cincinnati @ Tennessee
I was a believer in Andy Dalton, but never thought he's be playing this well so early in his career.  Does anyone know where Chris Johnson is?

Pick: Bengals

Denver @ Oakland
We'll see how much Carson Palmer progressed over the bye week.  Could this be Tebow's last start...ever?

Pick: Raiders

New York Giants @ New England
The Manning-Brady matchup!  The Patriots rarely lose two games in a row.  They're at home and the Giants secondary isn't the greatest.

Pick: Patriots

St. Louis @ Arizona
Kevin Kolb might be out and the Rams put it to the Saints last week.  Even without Bradford, Steven Jackson could be the difference.

Pick: Rams

Green Bay @ San Diego
We'll see if the bye week slowed down the Packers momentum.  Somehow I doubt it.

Pick: Packers

Baltimore @ Pittsburgh
The war continues in Pittsburgh Sunday night with the Ravens coming to town.  Since the Ravens blew out the Steelers in the opener, both teams have kind of switched paths.  The Steelers sit atop the AFC while the Ravens have struggled considerably on offence.

Pick: Steelers

Chicago @ Philadelphia
The Eagles look like they have finally figured things out.  If they can limit Matt Forte, the Bears are finished.

Pick: Eagles
