Default Gotta Have Action NFL picks 9/25

NCAA 2-2-0
NFL 0-0-0

After one day of college picking I am 2-2. Other than my picks, there are only two ways to do as well with your money:

1) flip a coin
2) figure out how much money you want to bet and then burn 10% of it.

Here are the picks.

Steelers -3
Last year the Steelers beat the Pats at home 34-20. This Steelers team has gotten better and this Pats team has gotten worse (albeit not very much worse). The Patriots defense seems to be a more susceptible to the run this year and the Steelers are one of the top rushing teams in football.

Rams -6.5
Call this one my gutshot pick of the day.

Saints +3.5
Minnesota has looked terrible so far this year and I see no reason for that to change. The Saints had 422 total yards last week to the Giants 257 but turned the ball over 6 times to lose the game. Look for the turnovers to be fixed this week and the boo birds to be out in Minnesota.

Good Luck all

Caveat Emptor

Geez, guess I was wrong about New Orleans fixing the turnovers. Fumbling the opening kickoff and a Brooks INT already [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

It's too bad the Minnesota O didn't show up until the 2nd half. Wonder who those guys scoring all the points were...

I didn't realize that NO and StL were replacing the water in their bottles with vodka this week [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]. Not as many turnovers as last week but some really ugly ones deep in their own territory for both teams.

Thought I might get StL and was praying for a back door cover with NO but it looks like Pitt is going to have to keep me from getting shut out.
