Default NFL Week 14

9-5-1 so far, +3.5 units.

A couple of dogs this week now that we're in crunch time.

Bengals +8 1/2 @ Pitt

Classic trap game, sandwiched between big games (Ravens last week, Jets next week). Steelers are banged up, the planet-sized Flozell Adams ("He blots out the sun" - Bill Belichick) is way less than 100% as well as those already out. Cincy sucks, but they aren't getting blown out here.

Rams +9 @ NO

Rams are a dangerous team, and the Saints may get caught looking ahead to a couple of tough road games (Ravens next week, Falcons the week after)

The official "were I not already dead" SUICIDE pick:

JACKSONVILLE

My blinded by the Cowboys sucking elimination not withstanding, I haven't missed before or after (well, that IS the point of a suicide pool, close doesn't count ). 5 left in the pool I was in. 4 took Jax, 1 took NO. Longest lived suicide pool I can remember.

I have a bad feeling we are going to lay an egg at Indy this week.

Colts Offense is predictable. Their defense sucks without Brackett. They almost coughed up a big lead against a dead team with a washed up backup QB. This should be the Jags' game.

It's been 11 years since I sat in our stadium for a playoff game... I hope you are right.

I hope you get to. Of course if you win, there's a good chance you'll have to come up and sit in OUR stadium, and the weather(and the opposition) won't be nearly as accommodating.

FWIW, if I lived in your climate, I'd be much more likely to want to see a playoff game live. Up here, TV is just fine, thank you.

Well, it doesn't look good now. I will be a big Raiders fan this weekend!

Even w/o a home playoff game this has been an amazing season here; I was in the stadium for Scobee's walk-off 59 yard game winning FG against the Colts (on my birthday) and the 50+ yard hail mary as time expired to beat the Texans. Very cool.
