Default NFL Week 6

Back on the horse this week.

Indy -3 @ Wash

This may shape up to be a shootout. Neither pass defense is great. I'll take Manning over McNabb in a shootout. Indy's ranked 6th in 3rd down conversions, and the 'Skins' pass D is 11th in the same stat. Somehow I don't see that blitz-happy scheme being successful vs. Manning.

Seattle +6 @ Bears

Yeah, I know. I'm making bookies rich betting against the Bears, but I'm sticking with my concept of betting against the worst O-line in the NFL. Of course, one definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

SUICIDE PICK - Pittsburgh

Rivalry or not, Big Ben's 1st game back at home. I think almost everybody in my pool is picking this game.

As side note, CHFF's top pick of the week is the Pats over the Ravens. They're adamant in their opinion that getting rid of Moss makes the Pats' offense better. They wrote late last year that NE would not get back to the Super Bowl unless they dumped Moss and use as their evidence that Brady's QB rating is only 70 when targeting Moss. I'd like this to be true. Only time will tell.
