PrintUSE THIS THREAD TO TALK ABOUT ALL THE DAY'S ACTION!!
Each year, I have given my thoughts and expertise a run for their money by publicly making my picks for each game every week. To add a twist, the fine contributors of MileHighReport have agreed to do the same, along with my lovely wife, with the winner laying claim to the Title of "Best Game Picker On MHR Until Next Year..." or something like that.
Full Disclosure -- Everyone had the Broncos on Thursday. Zappa had selected Cleveland earlier in the week until I posted the video of Romeo Crennel "guaranteeing" victory. How bad could it have looked for Z had he not changed his mind?
My thanks to Styg50, HoosierTeacher, Zappa, MDierk and Melissa for agreeing to partake in a little bit of fun. Without further ado, the picks --

Is there anybody out there?
Dominique Foxworth is starting and playing quite well for Atlanta so far
I saw...makes me angry to see

That makes two of us . . .
I’ve always been a Foxy fan.
Never argue with a fool, lest you take on his appearance. - my daddy
I'm not too upset about us giving up Foxworth
Foxworth was a good tackler, but he never stopped anybody from catching the ball. He got completely picked apart when he was on our team, and with our defensive line this year that was not going to change. He was a great guy, but was never great player.
Predictions before the season began: 11-5 and a top five offense (I was probably too conservative).

Also, Paymah has been coming on as of late.
From what I could tell he did fine in the Cleveland game.

Yes, Paymah is showing a good combination of speed, grace and awareness
I hope we are able to resign him. Foxworth was a classy guy, but we all have to move on. At least we got a draft pick for him.

Go Chefs! lol

It's alright. They're still up 7
And this is much better than we could have realistically hoped for.

A field goal before half would be awesome.

Heck with some people here in Denver wanting Shanny fired, I can only imiagine what Kubes is going thru.

Funny I was thinking the exact same thing.

if he can’t even get a first down when given the ball at the 35 yard line….

at least they have terrible field position

what in the world is carolina thinking?
I’m glad they are being stupid because Fargas is on my fantasy team and would like him to still be viable in the game, but really Delhomme has 4 INTs and completed less than a third of his passes, while they’ve gained over 100 on the ground, they have a lead, and THEY ARE STILL PASSING. Their last few drives have taken about 30 seconds off the clock.
Jason
The Hanging Curve
WELL MELISSA!
YOU HAVE A TWO GAME LEAD!
I have no idea what kind of problems, that that, might be causing for you, back on the home front, but, hang in there girl! You know that U R the GIRL of the MHR NET! We R proud of U, and U should just keep makin the right pix.
I love the fact that U will pick picks like Ind over The Steeler nation? My nephew is a Seeler Fan, and so I have to root 4 them whenever they are NOT playing the DBroncos, but, Just keep pluggin away girl!
U do have the support of ALL the MHR fans, because, we just CAN NOT WAIT TO READ WHAT ALL THE LOOSERS HAVE TO SAY, at the end of the season. LOL!
ok, sorry guys, I guess that at this point, I have been Ostersized!? (is that a word?)
i believe
you are look for “ostracized”

NFL OCs should ostracize Herm
His offense is a consistent 10 on the Bore-O-Meter. Yawwwwwnnnnnn.

THANX MAN
MY CORRECTIONS ALWAYS NEED TO B MADE (be) NO B!
lol i APRECIATE THE CORRECTION BECAUSE “i” HAVE NO CLUE!
Who calls plays for the Chiefs?
They should be fired after that 3rd down call! Terrible!!!
GO BRONCOS!!!
them Chefs have life again
very little, but some
Jason

They prove every moment why they're such a terrible team!
I couldn’t imagine being a Chiefs fan.

So, the Lions must be the Yugos of the NFL
when they break, there is no way to fix them. What a waste of draft choices.

WELL...
If you live there then you would have a hard time BOT being a fan! I just thank GOD, that I dont live there.
Lets hope KC drives it in and gets two points--I still can't get the two point try earlier!!!
The best defense is a good defense!
And last week's young players. Yes!
witchg the Colts game here--I know I should be rooting for Pitsburg--for playoff reason

i was for it
until the plays from the one yard line got stuffed….then I didn’t like it
Jason

It's just as well the Chargers won,
if they lost they probably would have to struggle to come up with fresh excuses.
Ugghh, I went over to the DaBolts thread to laugh, and then KC had to be KC.
I would give Herm Edwards credit except that unlike Shanahan, that call to go for two was stupid. Take the tie and let San Diego shoot themselves in their foot.

I see Collingworth is back from his date with Brady Quinn

So, is there any reason I should care about the MNF game?
I usually like watching football on Monday night, but I couldn’t care less about the 49ers or the Cardinals. Anyone have any words that might make this game worth watching for me? Will it be good football? Really bad football? Etc. Or should I just not bother and go to bed early for a change?

I'll stop watching after Warner throws a TD or for 150 yards...because that will mark a victory for me in MHR's fantasy football league.
Look’s like I will see be in the running for the Norvy though. lmao

Get some extra sleep
ARI is for real, so maybe that is an interesting storyline, given their perrenial “suck”, but at best this game will showcase ARI’s passing offense or will feature bad football giving SF a chance to win. Either way it is bound to be boring for most fans…
