NFL Picks Part 2

First, the Seahawks are falling apart, people. Wow.

New York Giants @ Tampa Bay (-3)
Maaaan. This is a toughie for a number of reasons. One, I can't stand Coughlin. He's a freakin' buffoon. Wade Philips is a boob, Coughlin is a doof. Two, neither of these teams really impresses me all that much. I have to make a call here though, and here's what I'm going with. My whole thing with the NFL is that wins come down two things: QB's and coaches. In this case, the advantage goes to the Bucs.  I like Garcia at home and I think Eli will be what he is: the player you saw in the fourth quarter against the Pats. Thus, Tampa Bay 24, Giants 20.

LaRon Landry takin' charge. Hm.

Tennessee @ San Diego (-10)
Yikes. This one could gut butt ugly real fast. Vince Young is hurt, the Chargers are playing pretty well. Buuut, the Titans defense can cause you some problemas. Like the combination of prunes and apples. That's another story. I despise the Chargers. Really. I think Philip Rivers will be exposed again at some point as nothing more than a mid-level NFL QB. In this game, I think the Charger's offense (LT, specifically) just has too much firepower. The Titans defense might keep them in it, but they won't be able to keep up with the scoring. Hence, San Diego 34 (with the cover), Tennesse 17.

Enjoy.
