Week 10

You can't sleep on the Chicago Bears. Jay Cutler is a tremendous QB if he stays up right. He has good velocity on the ball, but he throws to average at best receivers. Roy Williams should be out of the league. Johnny Knox and Earl Bennett are number 3 receivers at best. Matt Forte and Marion Barber are a great RB combination and the O line coming together. The Defense always keeps the Bears close. The biggest obstacle will be Detroit and this week will be the judge how good the Bears really are.

I still like the Texans and when Andre Johnson returns their offense should pick up. Matt Schaub may never be in the class of Brady and Manning, but he is a top 10 QB and I think he will lead the Texans to their first playoff appearance.

Eli Manning is an elite QB and yet no one seems to give him his due. He won a Superbowl despite his head coach. When everyone counts him out, he puts up a huge game and makes everyone see how good he truly is.

The Washington Redskins are right where I thought they'd be. Mike Shanahan is a fraud. And if he is brought back next season, it will show the true ineptness that is the Washington Redskins.

Last week I finally broke .500 by going 3-1, bringing my totals to 19-17. With Thursday Night Football kicking off this week, here are my week 10 picks a day early.

Indianapolis (+2) against Jacksonville
The Colts are bad, I've said this many times before, but not 0-16 bad. Jacksonville is bad and despite a few more wins, I don't see them much better than Indy. The Colts will win 2-4 games this year and this will be their first. Blaine Galbert is still learning the ropes and I just don't see him as a top QB. I see Indy's Defense all over him
Colts 27 - Jags 14

Miami (-3.5) against Washington
Let's break up the Dolphins, because they will win their second in a row. Matt Moore will have a huge game and get South Beach to actually think he can be the QB of the future. Although I don't see Tony Sporano's job saved, I do see the Dolphins winning big again this week.
Dolphins 38 - Redskins 17

Chicago (-2.5) against Detroit
The Bears are for real and this is their biggest game of the season. Jay Cutler needs to show everyone he is the Man and put the memory of last season's NFC Championship behind him. Detroit will have some rocky games and I don't think they have the running game to control the game.
Bears 24 - Lions 21

Upset Special
Dallas (-5.5) against Buffalo
Dallas is not that good. Buffalo is trying to find themselves. This is a must win for the Bills if they have any hope of a playoff spot and I think Chan Gailey comes back to Dallas and smacks them in the face and beats America's Team. And once again, the critics will be wondering if Tony Romo is a true elite QB.
Bills 29 - Cowboys 27
