NFL 2009 Week 10 picks

The NFL is rolling out its neo-traditional, late-season (often deadly dull) Thursday night games (that a good chunk of the country can’t watch without the NFL Network).

Yay!

Of course, that also means I have to get off my lazy butt earlier in the week and give you my picks (7-6 last week, 86-43 overall).

Since it’s week 10, I’ve decided to bring back revive my favorite/only gimmick. Let’s break these games down in 10 words.

CHICAGO @ SAN FRANCISCO
The loser is probably out of the playoffs — sorry Niners.

NEW ORLEANS @ ST. LOUIS
Do we really need 10 words to describe this bloodbath?

TAMPA BAY @ MIAMI
Cancel those playoff tickets, Bucs fans — our defense still blows!

DETROIT @ MINNESOTA
Read what I wrote for Saints/Rams. Apply it here.

JACKSONVILLE @ N.Y. JETS
A win here should get the Jets overconfidence back again.

BUFFALO @ TENNESSEE
Chris Johnson’s 10-win prediction…is still bat s--- crazy.

CINCINNATI @ PITTSBURGH
Fine, Cincinnati is REALLY good — but Pittsburgh wins at home.

DENVER @ WASHINGTON
A LOT more interesting if Shanahan were already coaching Washington.

ATLANTA @ CAROLINA
Carolina WILL beat Atlanta after almost winning in New Orleans.

KANSAS CITY @ OAKLAND
You know that Pats/Colts game? This is the opposite.

SEATTLE @ ARIZONA
I think the Cardinals SHOULD win, so watch them lose.

DALLAS @ GREEN BAY
Tony Romo’s late-season swoon has to start somewhere, right?

PHILADELPHIA @ SAN DIEGO
People in Philly aren’t COMPLETELY panicked yet. They will be.

NEW ENGLAND @ INDIANAPOLIS
I will pick Indy to lose when they start losing.

BALTIMORE @ CLEVELAND
Brady Quinn…Derek Anderson…Really — what difference does it make?
