NFL Picks Nov 29

Here are my week 8 NFL picks. As always, winners in green.

SEASON TOTAL: 117-84
Carolina at NY Jets
Indianapolis at Houston
Jacksonville at San Francisco
Chicago at Minnesota
Arizona at Tennessee
Pittsburgh at Baltimore


I was looking at the Colts' schedule yesterday and the last six games are all against middle-of-the-road teams. On an individual basis, none of them really have a chance to beat them, but combined on a short-season schedule (meaning the remainder of the Colts' season) it's more than likely the Colts will slip up and beat themselves somewhere between now and the playoffs. (Like Minnesota losing the Pittsburgh... does anybody seriously think that would happen if they played again today?)

The Saints aren't much worse off. If they get past the Patriots on Monday night, the chances of meeting the Colts in an historic Super Bowl match-up of two undefeated teams becomes a lot more likely.

That said, I'm still going with the Colts and Vikings in the Super Bowl.
