J! E! T! S! Jets, Jets, Jets (can't believe it)

Jets vs Steelers

God damn it. How did Rex and the boys pull that off. Now they play the Steelers. I really hate the Jets, but I might just hate Hines Ward more. He just annoys the crap out of me. His million dollar fake smile doesn't fool me. Hines number one asset might be his ability to piss off the opposing team. I wish someone would just lay him out. I like Tomlin, Vikes should of kept him, Mendenhall, Ben, Troy, and pretty much the rest of there team minus James Harrison. So why does Hines bother me so much? I used to like the guy. He worked his way up the depth chart and played his butt off. It seems like after he won the first Super Bowl a switch flipped.


Anyways I can't stand Rex Ryan either but he just coaches. The Jets looked pretty solid last week against the Patriots. I didn't see any real weakness. I think Mark will have to have a 3 td passing performance to win this week.

Prediction Steelers 27 Jets 34

Steelers self-destruct early and can't pull off another comeback win.


Packers vs Bears.

Well like I said last week, Jay Cutler has a 3 int game. I don't think he's ready for this stage yet. But Rodgers is. The Pack are looking solid. Woodson and Williams have a field day picking off Cutler, while Rodgers throws for 2 scores and runs one in.

Packers 31 Bears 17

New Computer = New Blogger

Man, I've been out of commission for awhile. Early October my laptop took a dump on me and I kind of forgot about blogging. Well the Anal is back, with a new netbook and same old attitude.

My brothers have been blogging about sports predictions and it got me thinking that I should start posting some thoughts about sports. I mean if I told you the Chiefs were going to win the AFC west this fall, like I predicted, people would of laughed. That brings me to my preseason Superbowl picks. Packers vs Ravens. It still could happen, but unlikely. I like the Packers chances because the NFC is weak, but the Ravens have a rougher road to the Superbowl, so if they make it Joe Flacco will have to channel his inner Tom Brady.

Here are my NFL playoff predictions.

Ravens vs Steelers.

Wow, this is the game I'm looking forward to the most. Very similar teams. Both have a great young RB, great defenses, veteran safeties that could change the game, and tall QB's that came from smaller colleges. The difference is Mike Wallace. I don't think anyone on the Ravens is fast enough to cover this guy.

Prediction. Steelers 24 Ravens 17. Big Ben finds Wallace for 2 big gains throughout the afternoon and that will be the difference.

Packers vs Falcons.

Not a big fan of either of these teams. Probably because of nickname "Matty Ice" or maybe the Dirty Birds beating the Vikes in 98 and Packer fans still wearing those stupid cheese heads from the 90's.

Prediction. Packers 31 Falcons 14. With the Packers finding a running game, they have been missing all year, last week. I think they pull of the upset and "Matty Ice" melts down in his first important game of the season.

Jets vs Patriots

Man I hate Rex Ryan. I mean how class B can you be. Especially with a name like Rex. How old are you? I can just see him now in 2nd grade. The big fat kid who tries to make everyone laugh, then picks a fight with you if you don't. What a loser. Go eat some M&M's with John Daly. On the other hand, I really like what the Pat's have on defense. They are so young and talented. There defense should be able to keep them as contenders for the next decade.

Prediction Pats 21 Jets 10. Mark Sanchez has a terrible day. Rex Ryan has some pathetic post game press conference about it being personal and Tom Brady moves on.

Bears vs Seahawks

This one I thought was a closed case with Bears blowing out the Seahawks, but then I starting thinking about Jay Cutler and how much rides on his shoulders. Also the Seahawks looked like a one seed playing the Saints last weeks. Did you see Lynch's run? It might go down as one the best of all-time. Given the situation.

Bears 30 Seahawks 17. Matt Forte and the Bears defense pull it together. Jay Cutler puts up decent numbers, but his mental breakdown will happen next week. Seahawks magic runs out and Matt Hasselbeck plays in his last game as a Seahawk.

There are my predictions for this week. I'll post more after the weekend games.
