Let’s just call this the Legendary Loser edition. I’m writing it in honor of my Giants. It’s funny, actually. I always looked at teams like the Browns as throwaway franchises; doorstops you kicked over to get a better record. Yet here we are with another 0-3 season and I still want to believe the Giants are good. They aren’t. They are historically bad. They are right up there with the worst franchises over the past two decades and all I can do is hope they find a way not to suck; not to lose. And every week they find a way to get worse. Blake Martinez is now done. ACL. Really? Are we in a race for the bottom with the Jets and the Jags? How is it I honestly feel both of those teams would beat us by 20?!
Ah, well. I’m not holding my breath for a playoff run, but I’m looking forward to seeing a few good wins at some point. That some point probably isn’t against the Saints. Winston will throw a pick or two, but the end result is a beating. I’m picking the Saints here.
Here are some other picks on the week:
Bengals over Jags
Titans over Jets
Even without both top recievers, they won’t have a problem steamrolling the Jets. That play-action game works because Henry makes it work. I wish my youth team had a run game that unstoppable.
Chiefs over Eagles
Been a rough few weeks for the Chiefs, but I think they bounce back here.
Cowboys over Panthers
You hate to see it….
Browns over Vikings
This Browns team is really good on both sides of the ball. They don’t get the respect they deserve defensively. My kids keep reminding me they suck, but I’m like ‘Myles Garrett???’
Just time for the early games this post. I’ll pick up the rest tomorrow.
