NFL Week 5: Frey's Locks of the Week

THAT’s what I’m talking about!  A little 4-0 is exactly what was needed to get things rolling.

Now that I've lanced the unsightly pro-Buffalo boil that was disfiguring my blog after week 3 by picking against the Bills, we can all attempt to move forward in our lives with some degree of normality.

Buffalo craps the bed again.  All is right with the world.


Week 5:


Arizona Cardinals @ Denver Broncos (-7)


This game reminds me of the Winter War between Russia and Finland in 1939-1940.

The Finns were resilient, well-led, and came out of the gates looking great.  Russia was sluggish, over-confident, and inconsistent.

However, Russia had 10,000 aircraft and tanks and Finland had like 6.

Denver has tons of weapons and the Cardinals have Drew Stanton.

In this game, the bully has the home turf and the little guy is invading.

Try as they might, the Cards are probably just going to get tossed around by their underpants


How anyone can not think that Peyton Manning at home after a bye week isn't worth more than a TD is beyond me.

I don’t like picking my boys, but the Broncos cover here.


Tampa Bay (+11) @ New Orleans


I’ve no illusions of a Saints loss here, but that is a lot of freaking points to lay for a team that looked like a fat man running a 10K even in their victories.

The Saints on their way to finishing off the mighty 1-3 Redskins


Backdoor cover?  Were we come!


Cincinnati (+2.5) @ New England


I don’t know why everyone still thinks “The Hoodie” is such a great coach.  He’s just a mean guy who thinks he’s better than you.

As far as New England is concerned, if they can’t cheat, then they can’t win.

This year, Cincinnati is the better team.  Pure and Simple.

Brady better start Ballin’ or he’s gonna lose his Uggs contract.

Only a champion gets to market these bad-boys....


Buffalo @ Detroit (-6.5)


There are forces in the world that we cannot even begin to understand.  In this game, 2 such forces are at odds.

1)      Detroit, even at home, ALWAYS plays down to the level of the competition.

2)      Every time I pick against the Bills I win on every pick that week, my fantasy team wins, and the weather is summer-like.


I could go for some good weather this weekend so I’m gonna grab me some Lions.



Season Record against the spread:  10-6
