Slow and Steady Wins the Race

Here at Commonprejudice we just don't believe being down 21 games in the win column is enough. So, demonstrating our customary generosity we decided to purposely call the first two games this week incorrectly as well. Now, finally, with three weeks left in the season it is time for us to make our charge. Watch out.

Denver -1.5 at Houston
We thought it was Houston all the way so we chose the Broncos
Cincinnati -8 at San Francisco
Of course the Niners were going to win. Duh. So for that reason we took the Bengals.

Now on the Sunday games (Note: CommonPrejudice reserves the right to subsequently claim that these picks too are purposely incorrect)

Baltimore -3.5 at Miami
I think I'm going with Ravens. It's too cute a pick to take the Fins.
Buffalo +5.5 at Cleveland
Game of the Week. Let's go with the points. Bills
Philadelphia +10.5 at Dallas
I don't think Philly shows up this week. Silly Nannies
Green Bay -9.5 at St. Louis
Easy pick. Packers
Indianapolis +10.5 at Oakland
Colts rocking and rolling.
NY Jets +23 at New England
I'm going to claim that the reason I waited so long to make my picks this week was because I was waiting for the last possible weather update from New England (yeah right).
Snow...Freezing rain with a chance of sleet this morning...Then rain likely this afternoon. Precipitation May be heavy at Times this morning. Total accumulation of 4 to 8 inches. Windy and not as cool with highs in the mid 30s. Northeast winds 15 to 20 mph...Increasing to 20 to 30 mph this afternoon. Chance of precipitation near 100 percent.
Jets
Arizona +3.5 at New Orleans
GO CARDS damnit. Saints
Washington +4.5 at NY Giants
I like what I'm hearing about this Collins kid. He could be a star someday.Skins.
Jacksonville +3.5 at Pittsburgh
Really big game for Jacksonville. For that reason let's go with the Jaguars.

Detroit +10 at San Diego
I like Detroit in this game. I mean I really really like Detroit here ....to get blown out. So for old time's sake:

Chargers
Seattle -7.5 at Carolina
Always take the heavy favorite this time of year against teams as demoralized as the Panthers. Seahawks.
Atlanta +13.5 at Tampa Bay
Garcia is back so I will go with the Bucs (but don't be surprised if the Falcons play with a bit of a chip on their shoulder with their coach bolting like that)
Tennessee -4 at Kansas City
I don't see how the Titans don't roll here given the stakes. If they don't they deserve their fate.
Chicago +10 at Minnesota
And speaking of demoralized.... Vikings.

Sometime soon we'll get an updated version of the standings as the Commonprejudice tortoise sprints to the finish line. Now we must attend to some important Commonprejudice business.
