My Football Picks for Week 16 - UPDATES

Monday Night Game UPDATES - So the Chargers own the Broncos now.  I mean own them big time - the 2 games they've played this season, the Chargers have held the Broncos to only 3 points each game.  LT has now taken the lead in rushing yards this season.  Elam has now played in more Broncos games than Elway.  I end this week at 10-6, and the season to date at 126-52.  (for those of you keeping track, that's .70%)  Just one more week of regular season!  And that's it for Monday Night Football until next year. 

Sunday Late Games UPDATES - Why did I pick the Ravens again?  I wasn't serious, was I?  What the hell was I thinking?  And what in the world were the Buccaneers thinking, to let the 49ers beat them?  And apparently the Vikings didn't want that playoff spot as bad as the Redskins did.  Congratulations to my Beloved Patriots for beating the old "most TD's in a season" record, formerly held by the '84 Dolphins.  And also for being the first team in NFL history to go 15-0.  Oh, I'm doing the Snoopy happy dance, you know it!

Don't forget - tomorrow (Monday) is the very last Monday Night Game of the season! 

Sunday Early Games UPDATES - Well Packers, you gave the Cowboys home field advantage.  Kiss those playoff hopes goodbye, since you can't win in Texas!  And Browns, you just might have to settle for a wildcard spot, since you couldn't even hold your own against the Bengals!  C'mon!  You're giving the division to the Steelers, you know.  Guess you don't want it that bad. 

Saturday Night UPDATES - Will T.O.'s ankle injury impact the 'boys efforts for home-field advantage in the play-offs?  So far they have a first round bye.  The Panthers are out now.  Both the Steelers and Browns are hoping for a Titans loss tomorrow, but ... they're playing the Jets. 

Thursday Night UPDATES - You played your guts out Rams.  The Steelers just needed it more to clinch their division.  Congratulations to Marshall Faulk on the retiring of his number.  You gave Rams fans a lot of great memories Mr. Faulk.  Well done.

Woo! 1 and 0! WOO!

LTY!

Vanessa said...

Lol, yeah, I better celebrate while I still have only 0 in the loss column! Woo!

DarcKnyt said...

2 and 0! Yippie! Nice!

Owens will be back by the playoffs, you'll see. And if they make it to the 'Bowl (and I don't see why they won't), he'll be THERE for SURE.

Ouch. Bad week, love. Teams that needed to step up can't seem to do it, and the return of Garcia to SF wasn't quite as he imagined, I'm sure. (I think he's a he. He's the most effeminate football player of all time, that's for sure.)

You'll do better next week, I'm sure.

Go Chahgahs!

Vanessa said...

Yeah, ouch, 6 down so far. :( I know, you'd have thought some of those teams would have fought harder for playoff spots. Sheesh. Lol about Garcia! Yeah, he's sort of a fem, isn't he. Married though, but we know that doesn't "mean" anything. And Yes, go Chargers! I like the Boston spin you put on it! LTY!!

This was a weird week. I'd have picked the way you did, so don't feel bad! You're doing very well over the whole season.

Sherri,
It is kind of a weird week, isn't it? Thanks for the support sweetie, it means a lot to me. :)

hugs for you!

DarcKnyt said...

10-6 ain't bad; 70%? That's not shabby at all! Congrats, and with one more week to go, you can still improve.

You should be proud of yourself. I sure am!

LTY!

Vanessa said...

Thanks My Love! Maybe I'll get really lucky and have a 16-0 week next week! Woo! I should have at least one win, on Saturday! Wouldn't that be like, the bomb, if I had a 16-0 week, and the Pats have a 16-0 season?! That would rock! lol LTY!
