After having a great few weeks going 5-1 I came back to reality going 1-2 on my predictions. Last night the Colts and Titans kicked off our football week in exciting fashion, and there are several games this weekend that will follow suit. Take a look at our selections for this week, wish me and my crystal ball good luck.
San Francisco 49ers @ New Orleans Saints
Colin Kaepernick has not looked up to par this season, and is poised for a breakout game. The problem is that the Saints are looking like the class of the NFC at this point. My Niners had a rough outing last week against the Panthers, but I have an odd feeling that the offense will breakout this weekend after having a horrible game last week. Call me crazy, but I have to roll with the home team. Niners win.
Kansas City Chiefs @ Denver Broncos
The Chiefs have the best record in football as of now. Alex Smith has been the perfect game manager to go along with the Chiefs stout defense. Peyton Manning and the Broncos are a high scoring team, and it’s hard seeing them lose to a team that can’t score that well. I don’t believe Alex Smith & co can’t muster enough offense to keep up with the Sheriff Peyton Manning. Broncos win big.
New England Patriots @ Carolina Panthers
Quiet as kept the Carolina Panthers may have the best defense in the NFL. Combing the defense with Cam Newton and his offensive weapons the Panthers are pretty hard to beat. Tom Brady and the Pats have a good record, but I don’t think they are an elite team. I see the Pats having a tough outing against the Panthers falling just short of a victory.
We hope you enjoy our selections, we’ll see you next week.
