NFL Week 7: Frey's Picks of the Week

My apologies for not posting last week my friends! 

I was feverishly attempting to get my 3 year old ready to head to the bar to watch the Broncos game and simply ran out of time.

In week 6, I decided to play road warrior as I had Broncos, Patriots, Packers, and Chargers.  

As tradition demands, I went 2-2.  Again.

 

This week, my powers of prognostication have led me to be a homer.

Atlanta @ Baltimore -6.5

Atlanta has lost every road game this year by double-digits.  This includes ass-kickings at the hands of juggernauts such as the 2-4 Vikings with a rookie QB and the 3-3 Giants who have yet to beat a team with a winning record.

The Falcons are a lot like Kathleen Turner.  They used to be interesting and attractive but when you take a gander at them now they look like crap and cough up cigarette butts on your shirt.

Minnesota @ Buffalo -3.5

I’m picking Buffalo.   

My God have mercy on my soul.

FYI-- I was just kidding when I wrote a few weeks ago that readers should line up to punch me in the dong if I picked them again. 

Kansas City @ San Diego -4

I have always been told that home field is worth 2.5 to 3.5 points in an NFL game.  Phillip Rivers is a wang so lets say that it is only a 2 point advantage for the Chargers.

So what Vegas is telling me is that the Chefs are only 2 points worse than San Diego on a neutral field.

This smells like a trap but I’m going after the cheese anyway.

Cincinnati @ Indianapolis -2.5

The Colts almost always lose to good teams even at home.  

Unfortunately, I can’t tell if Cincinnati is a good team or not.

3 weeks ago I would have taken the Bengals without hesitation but after making Cam Newton look like Steve Young on steroids last week, I can’t image them keeping it under 10.

Besides, Indy is unbeaten at home against Ohio teams ever since Andrew Luck returned from his pilgrimage to Mecca.
