Ok, now to finish up the weeks predictions.  Sorry these picks are so spread around.  To clear up confusion, the Chiefs/Dolphins game picks can be found here, and the 1 pm games are here.

 Read on for the late games.

 

Denver @ Oakland

Current Line- Denver -9.5

Current Points- 33 points

Weather-62 and mostly sunny

Gabs Take- Ok, you’re joking right?  Terrible offense vs. great defense?  This game is never in doubt, Oakland is backsliding every week.

Denver- 31

Oakland- 0

Yeah, that’s right, I said it, ZERO- Oakland has one of the worst offenses I have ever seen.

Fantasy Notables

Jake Plummer- 225 yards, 2 TD

Tatum Bell- 100 total yards, 1 TD

Mike Bell- 75 total yards, 1 TD

Rod Smith- 50 yards, 1 TD

Javon Walker- 120 yards, 1 TD

Honestly, it’s an impossible game to call from a fantasy perspective, Denver could score about any way they choose.  That being said, the final score will probably be 5-2.

 

New Orleans @ Pittsburgh

Current Line- Pittsburgh -5.5

Current Points- 45.5 points

Weather-43 and showers

Gabs Take- What an intriguing game.  Probably the toughest call of the week, other than the Giants and Bears.  Despite all this intrigue, Drew Brees is hot as a pistol, and the Steelers are falling fast.

New Orleans- 27

Pittsburgh- 17

Fantasy Notables

Drew Brees- 300 yards, 2 TD, 1 INT

Duece McCallister- 80 combo yards, 1 TD

Reggie Bush- Get back to me when you do something in an NFL game

Joe Horn- 70 yards

Devery Henderson- 50 yards 1 TD

Marques Colston- 100 yards, 1 TD

Big Ben- 200 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT (somebody find some pine for this guy)

Fast Willie Parker- 100 combo yards, 1 TD

Hines Ward- 90 yards, 1 TD

 

Dallas @ Arizona

Current Line- Dallas -6.5

Current Points- 43

Weather- 80 and sunny (it’s a dry heat)

Gabs Take- I’m still not down on the Cowboys.  They’ll continue their trend of win/lose.

Dallas- 27

Arizona- 13

Fantasy Notables

Tony Romo- 225 yards 1 TD, 1 INT

Julius Jones- 80 combo yards

Marion Barber III- 100 combo yards,  2 TD (seriously, might be time to snatch this guy up)

Terrell Owens- 120 yards, 1 TD, 2 drops

Jason Witten- 60 yards

Matt Leinart- 200 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT

Edge James- 100 total yards

Anquan Boldin- 75 yards, 1 TD

 

St. Louis @ Seattle

Current Line- Seattle -3.5

Current Points-44 points

Weather- 49 and showers

Gabs Take- Probably a lot of people are taking Seattle.  Not me, I’m not sold on Wallace, and I don’t think Sean Alexander is going to be 100%.

St. Louis- 34

Seattle- 21

Fantasy Notables

Marc Bulger- 300 yards, 3 TD

Stephen Jackson- 100 combo yards, 1 TD

Torry Holt- 150 yards, 2 TD

Ike Bruce- 80 yards, 1 TD

Give a TD to the Rams D thanks to Seneca

Seneca Wallace- 200 pass yards, 50 rush, 1 TD, 2 INT, 1 FUM

Sean Alexander- 70 yards, 1 TD    Maurice Morris can have these stats, Alexander likely will not play.  Either way, it only makes my pick easier.

Darryl Jackson- 65 yards

Deion Branch- 80 yards, 1 TD

 

Chicago @ NY Giants

Current Line- Giants -1

Current Points-37.5 points

Weather- 61 rain

Gabs Take- I know the G-men are banged all up, but Rex Grossman vs. Eli Manning is what this game is.  Eli is better, and has better weapons. 

Chicago- 17

New York- 26

Fantasy Notables

Rex Grossman- 200 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT

Thomas Jones- 100 yards, 1 TD

Muhsin Muhammed- 65 yards

Desmond Clark- 50 yards, 1 TD

Eli Manning- 240 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT

Tiki Barber- 100 combo yards

Brandon Jacobs- 20 yards, 1 TD

Plaxico Burress- 75 yards

Amani Toomer- OUT

Jeremy Shockey- 50 yards, 1 TD

 

Tampa Bay @ Carolina

Current Line- Carolina -9.5

Current Points- 37 points

Weather- 44 and clear

Gabs Take- I hate both these teams, I love Steve Smith.  Smith also happens to be the only strong play this week. 

 Tampa Bay- 10

Carolina 20

Fantasy Notables

Jake Delhomme- 250 yards, 2 TD

Steve Smith- 140 yards, 1 TD

Keyshawn Johnson- 50 yards, 1 TD

 

Wow, going over all these games was much more work than I expected.  I will have to come up with something new and more abbreviated for next week.
