Can you believe it's already week five in the NFL season?? Shoot, ten weeks from now, the Dallas Cowboys may actually have their starters playing.

After 4 weeks of picking, I am proving to be much more of a radio DJ than an NFL expert. I'm dangerously close to picking wrong more times than right, and in the world of straight-up picking... Uh, that's not very good.

I'm 33 - 32, desperate for a good week. I think I have that here!

Indianapolis at Houston, 8:30 PM

This game went down exactly how I saw it... Colts and Texans both looked decent but the Colts would looked a little more decent. Quality play from back-up quarterback Matt Hasselback led to the Colts victory in Houston. Good for Andre Johnson, who caught two TDs against his old team. Here's my prediction from last night.


Actual score: Colts win, 27 - 20

Buffalo at Tennessee, 1:00 PM

The Bills somehow lost to the Giants in Buffalo last week. I think I know why. After three weeks of not doing so, I finally started Tyrod Taylor in my fantasy league. Of course he played horribly for the first time this season, why wouldn't he? They rebound this week against a rookie quarterback.

Winner: Bills, 23 - 21

 

Chicago at Kansas City, 1:00 PM

Chicago pulled it off last week against the Raiders with a last-second, game-winning field goal. The Chiefs defense has been absolutely demolished by opposing QBs this season, and I expect that trend to continue. Bears pull out another win in Kansas City.

Winner: Bears, 34 - 31

 

Cleveland at Baltimore, 1:00 PM

The Ravens are coming off a win in Pittsburgh against the Big Ben-less Steelers. They are flying high right now and I can't justify picking the Browns in Baltimore.

Winner: Ravens, 37 - 20

 

Jacksonville at Tampa Bay, 1:00 PM

One of my fantasy strategies has been to pick up whichever defense is playing the Jaguars. The strategy has worked for me so far, but I'm not picking up Tampa Bay this week. I do think they'll win though. I think this game will be high scoring with the rookie QB playing the best game of his young career. Winston with 4 TDs.

Winner: Buccaneers, 38 - 27

 

New Orleans at Philadelphia, 1:00 PM

It took everything the Saints had to beat the most depleted team in the NFL last week in New Orleans. Unfortunately for them, the Eagles are not depleted. I see this game being an absolutely Chilly-wap in favor of the home team.

Winner: Eagles, 27 - 13

 

St. Louis at Green Bay, 1:00 PM

 

St. Louis has sneakily put together an impressive season so far. They are 2-0 in their division with wins against the Seahawks and Cardinals. Sadly, those games were at home, and this game is in Green Bay. Rodgers throws his first pick at home in God-knows-how-long, but that won't matter next to his 4 TDs.

Winner: Packers, 38 - 14

 

Seattle at Cincinnati, 1:00 PM

Cincinnati has looked hot this season, and the combo of Dalton to Green has been down-right deadly. The Seahawks were one hideous non-call away from losing in Detroit last week. They do not look like the Seahawks we all know and hate, which is why (I can't believe I'm doing this) I'm picking the home team.

Winner: Bengals, 20 - 10

 

Washington at Atlanta, 1:00 PM

Atlanta could be one of the best teams in the league this season when it's all said and done. They look downright unstoppeable. Dispite the Redskins coming off a huge divisional win against the Eagles last week, I think they come crashing down to Earth here. The Falcons own the NFC East this year and that continues.

Winner: Falcons, 41 - 26

 

Arizona at Detroit, 4:05 PM

 

The Lions will come into this game very angry after the refs chose to ignore the rule book during the final minutes of last week's game against Seattle. Their anger will cause them to play some serious ball agasint the Cardinals, but it won't be enough. How will the Lions lose this week? Stay tuned to find out!

Winner: Cardinals, 24 - 21 in OT

 

Denver at Oakland, 4:25 PM 

The Broncos are undefeated, but for some reason, it doesn't feel like that. Maybe it's Peyton's declined play, or maybe the Super Bowl blowout loss to Seattle forever changed the way we view this team. Either way, they're undeafeated and I won't pick against them in Oakland.

Winner: Broncos, 28 - 17

 

New England at Dallas, 4:25 PM

Help should be coming for the most depleted team in the NFL, just as they need it the most. This week, you'll see Greg Hardy and Rolando McCalin back. After next week's bye, you should see Randy Gregory and Dez Bryant. Then a few weeks later, Tony Romo should be back under center. They will be a very dangerous team to play come December... Unfortunately, that won't matter because they'll be 2 - 10 at that time.

Winner: Patriots, 48 - 27

 

San Francisco at New York Giants, 8:30 PM

The 49ers look absolutely putrid. The Giants are coming in hot after pulling off an impressive victory in Buffalo last week. I have no clue what will happen in this game, it all depends on QB play. I'll go with Eli against a horrendous 49ers defense.

Winner: Giants, 31 - 17

Pittsburgh at San Diego, 8:30 PM

I don't think I'll ever pick the Steelers to win with Michael Vick at QB. Not happening this week. Rivers > Vick.

Winner: Chargers, 31 - 20
