NFL Week 3 Prognostications:

Lines as seen Wednesday on http://www.footballlocks.com

Let's face it...if you listen to the recording of our week 3 prognostication audio, you will hear 8-Ball challenging The King's picks for the week...this from someone who went 3-9 against the spread last week versus The King who told you to take Arizona, the Giants and the Ravens money lines as upsets last week...I have challenged 8-Ball to beat the "Blind Monkey" this week before he challenges The King's picks again...yes the same King that is 14-3 for outright games on the season...so for each of his games, I flipped a coin (Heads means the home team covers the spread, and heads for the Over/Under means that the game goes over)...so 8-Ball is going against the "Blind Monkey" this week...let's see how it goes...my money is with the Monkey!...Challenging The King...LOL, what a joke!...Beat the Monkey and then talk...here are the picks:

All, keep in mind our picks are made on Wednesday's, lots of changes in weather, injury status, etcetera may have an outcome on a game.  Please consider this.  For example, this week in Buffalo, lots of rain expected...might change the game to a run, run, run one...might not...just keep it in mind. 

 

Chiefs

@

Eagles

Sun (9/27  1:00 Eastern)

The Chiefs are on a 2 game losing streak.  The Eagles just got done getting shalacked by the Saints led by Drew Brees & Co. at home.  Kolb put up over 300 yards in a valliant effort and the Eagles offense is still talented, even if Westbrook does not play.

Lions

Sun (9/27  1:00 Eastern)

When you have been picking games like 8 ball….you gotta go with your gut in hopes your biorythms are right to stay ahead of that monkey.  I know the Lions are winless in their last 21 but something tells me this is their week!  Stafford, Megatron and Smith will score just enough to give the Lions the edge.

Sun (9/27  1:00 Eastern)

The Rams played tough last week while the Packers lost a tough one at home to the Bengals.  Expect Rodgers and Jennings to reestablish that Old Loving Feeling and connect early and often against the Rams.  S-Jax will struggle running the ball but will make his points in the passing game.

49'ers

@

Vikings

Sun (9/27  1:00 Eastern)

The 9'ers come in hot, surprising the NFL with a 2-0 start.  Favre plays his best game of the year and throws for 240+…this along with All Day's 2 touches will prove to be too much against what the 9'ers can throw at them.  Gore owners are still celebrating over his 200+ yard effort last week but watch in horror as he struggles to get 80 this week.  The Vikings will not go undefeated, but will lose another day...not this one.

Sun (9/27  1:00 Eastern)

This is the classic letdown game.  The JETS come off a big win, while the Titans have yet to drink from victories cup.  That ends this week!  The Titans kick a last minute field goal to walk off the field as victors and humble all the JET fans.  Take that to the bank Monkey!

Let the points begin!  The Falcons new Defense will be exploited by Terrific Tom, who will rebound in a big, big way.  Brady to Moss will be the theme of the day as the Patriots show all who doubt them that once healthy…they are a force to be wreckened with.

Texans

Sun (9/27  1:00 Eastern)

The Texans are at home after a big win in Tennessee.  The 3rd ranked offense of last year put up 34 on a solid D…expect them to get their running game together this week after a tough first 2 weeks match ups.  Slaton shows there is hope and Andre does his thing.  The Jags face 0-3 after this game, but don't expect them to go down without a fight.  MJD and Sims-Walker come up big in this one.

Giants

@

Buccs

Sun (9/27  1:00 Eastern)

The Giants are rolling.  Manning looks like the surgeon that The King was calling for last week.  Manningham and Smith are both must starts!  The Buccs defense, even at home, is no contest for such an attack.  You saw what the Giants did on the road in Dallas Sunday night.  Remember week 1 against the Skins they gave up 1 passing TD and only 211 yards...Expect more of the same in Tampa.  Tampa will be able to run the ball some...who will be the beneficiary?  Spread the wealth baby!  This high scoring game pleases everyone except the TBB passing game!  Especially those that picked up a top 5 Leftwich only to see their top 5 turn into top 12 in one week...

Sun (9/27  4:05 Eastern)

Chicago comes off a big win over the Steelers while the Hawks wait to see if Matty plays.  If Hasselback was healthy I would pick the Hawks to win.  However, his limited ability if he plays downgrades all Hawks this week.  Play Forte and Hester as they show whey they went early in the draft.
