The Hoser’s NFL Picks, Week Four: NFL Picks that miss Jerry Glanville desperately.
You hit the New England thing right on the head. For instance, I no longer have repressed homosexual feelings for Tom Brady.

What makes you think the Raiders will score so many points--in the whole season?

The Vikings are actually *at* Buffalo, though I agree with the result. Entertaining as always.

Thanks, Q -- Pantheon, can you make that edit? And TBH, if that happens, come on in after you finish. I make a mean Prestone-and-peyote egg nog.

Im tired of living on the west coast.every week its San Fran or Oakland that i get to watch..PUT ON SOME REAL GAMES

I hate to tell you dallas, but have you forgotten that San Fran actually has the 4th ranked offense in the NFL right now? They could easily be 3-0 right now, and then you wouldn't be saying that (If San Francisco didn't have that first fumble deep in their own territory against Arizona, thats 7 less points from Arizona and some more points for San Fran most likely, either 3 or 7, which would mean San Fran wins. If they didnt have the fumble returned for a touchdown last week, thats a 14 point swing, which would bring the score to 31-31, meaning OT.). So don't forget that San Fran is starting to be a better team, as long as their defense can come around.

excuse me zachaweenus, if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle! You're right about the 49ers being a better team. Very easy to get better when you're the worst team in the league 2 years running.

If the Texans do beat the Dolphins, I'll drive by your house and shoot out your porch light every Christmas Eve until the day I die. With Culpepper running the show and throwing strikes, how could they possibly lose?

He hasn't had a good start for sure, but we've got this fantastic kid waiting in the wings - a former fourth-placed Heisman trophy candidate no less! He's going to be great! Exclamation marks!

Every week I only really pay attention to the Lions score. If fraze is choosing their opponet I know that he still has his sanity.

Picking against the Lions proves your sane? I hope that's not the test they use in asylums to decide if an individual is appropriate for release into society.

I think this means Roy Williams is the only insane person in the world. Well, maybe him and Matt Millen.
posted by Mr Bismarck at 11:21 AM on September 29, 2006
Roy Williams' pick (guarantee) WAS insane. As for Millen, that train left the station long, long ago.

Another week that the seahawks defense is under rated. I wouldn't be giving Chicago 24 points. "Bears defensive coordinater salivating"? The four wide out package for Seattle is gonna pick on that blitz package. Hasslebeck finally has quick release options. They won't be missing Alexander all that much.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for picking the Bears! Yours is a trusted source of informed sports knowledge!! (pops open a Rainier and tosses another salmon on the grill)

TBH, looks like you're going to be spending a lot of Christmas Eves in Canada. Fourth quarter, Houston handling Miami, Culpepper stinks (like the entire Dolphins team, evidentally).

Ha! Black Hand, I thought about that "breaking the window on every Chrismas Eve" comment the moment I heard that score. :D

Yo Fraze...stock up on light bulbs and Prestone, homie! Jesus, what is up with that piss-poor offense? At this rate, by the time they build a decent offensive line, Culpepper, Chambers and Ronnie Brown will be retired! It's gonna be a long, long year.

The first order of business for Miami is get rid of Mike Mularkey. He's a joke and overrated as a coach and/or offensive mind. Second, Culpepper's not good. He peaked a few years back and it's all downhill from here. I honestly can't think of a quarterback I've seen in the NFL in several years who could perform as badly as him with the decent weapons he has. Piss poor.

He's a joke and overrated as a coach and/or offensive mind. There is an offensive co-ordinator in Cleveland you can have. We will give him to you.

Here in Detroit we wouldn't mind giving you Matt Millen, Rob Marenelli, and of course Mr. Ford.
posted by Ying Yang Mafia at 05:44 PM on October 02, 2006
This week it wasn't Culpepper's fault though. What about Marty Booker droping a pass that would have left an extra minute on the clock. What about Chambers coming out because of cramps on what was one of the more important plays of that drive. What about the D giving up 17 points to the Texans. What about Ronnie Brown only getting 44 yards on the ground. Too many things went wrong to point it a Daunte and too many things went wrong so you can point at Mularkey.
