Just like last week, there isn’t enough time this week to go into details with my picks.
The Titans are my pick for this week's upset special.
Which is probably a good thing after my 6-8 week last week. I had most of the teams right, but they never covered the spread (Steelers, I’m looking in your direction).
No matter. The best thing about football predictions is the fact you always have a new week to try and improve.
There are some surprises with my picks this week. I have the Giants defeating the Saints (even though they’re playing in New Orleans). This will be a great match-up between two undefeated teams. But I think the defence of the Giants will be too much for the Saints.
My main upset special has to do with the Titans-Patriots game. I think the Titans will start to turn around their season this week, and they’ll be pumped against this Pats team. Not only do I think they’ll cover, I think they’ll win outright.
