It's awfully quiet around here.

After another miserable week here at CommonPrejudice - 5-8-1 - sitting nine games under .500 for the season and far back of leader Ben at Curly R who is at 53% for the season. As you can see we've been forced to abandon the offices of our Galactic Headquarters. Now we're going to have run a much more scaled down operation.

Ok, let's turn to some football talk. After all there's no credibility problem here. Nosireee.

Dallas Week
It's hard to recall where I've entered a Cowboys game with less confidence. I simply can't imagine a skins victory. Seeing the defense fall apart in the fourth quarter last week without Taylor against a vastly inferior Eagles team should have every redskin fan this week within arms length of a bottle of their favorite spirit. It's not going to be pretty. Can the skins offense keep up? Virtually any chance rests on the cursed cliche, stranger things have happened. The Redskins best case scenario right now is beating TB, going 6-5, winning three of the next four and playing Dallas in the last game of the year to go 10-6 and make the play-offs.

So
Washington +10.5 at Dallas

What am I supposed to do here? I mean I wouldn't bet a dime on the skins. Being a fan isn't the same as being stupid. It goes without saying I hope I'm wrong.
Cowboys

Carolina +9.5 at Green Bay
The Pack are on a roll.
Packers

New Orleans +1 at Houston
I sense a collapse now by the Saints
Texans

Kansas City +14.5 Indianapolis
Yeah, I'll take that.

Lockoftheweek
Jaguars

Oakland +5 at Minnesota
I'm going against my better judgement  - which almost certainly is a good thing.
Vikings

New England -16 at Buffalo
Let's have some fun and take the points.
Bills

NY Giants -3) at Detroit
Like everyone we are cheering for the Eli collapse and Eli face.
Lions

Miami +10 at Philadelphia
It wouldn't shock me if Miami shows up here but I wouldn't bet on it.
Eagles

Pittsburgh -9.5 at  NYJets
Steelers big

Chicago +5.5 at Seattle
This is a field goal game
Bears

St Louis -3 at  San Francisco
Niners look horrible
Rams

Tampa Bay -3 at Atlanta
Bucs

Cleveland -3 at Baltimore
Browns

Arizona +3 at Cincinnati
Bengals

Monday
Tennessee +3 at Denver
Are you telling me that these teams are equal?
Titans

So as the Cowboys are running up the score in the 4th quarter I can imagine Gibbs' heroic defiance as he screams at Phillips.
