gantrules Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 So, Who do you guys like to upset this week. My pick is SD over the Jets. Here's why. Jets D is shaky at best. Brees is a little more composed than Palmer was last week. Both corners on the Jets can and will be tested and it will open up more options for LT. I'm not saying the Chargers are going to blow them out....but I do think they will beat them by a FG.
PastaJoe Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 I don't really consider that an upset, San Diego is better than they get credit for. How about the Giants over Washington, that wouldn't suprise me.
Tux of Borg Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 In the work pool I choose Arizona over New England. The cardinals cannot lose on Pat Tilman day!

I'm not saying the Chargers are going to blow them out....but I do think they will beat them by a FG. 34938[/snapback] I watched the Cincy/Jets game. Palmer did better than I thought. Penny picked on rookie Madeiu Williams, who is a safety but was forced into the LCB spot because of injuries. Williams did well in the 2nd half. The Jets did well on special teams. Cincy's running game is almost exclusively between the tackles, and the Jets did well although the B'gal's OL is weak due to injuries. The Jet's cb's weren't outstanding, but in the games I watched last week, it looks like adjustments are being worked out in recognition of the NFL's announced interference and defensive holding emphasis. I've never seen Tomlinson play (is he an outside threat? - I haven't got that impression), and because cincy keeps to an inside run, I don't know if they (the Jets)have problems with combating outside runs.
flomoe Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 In the work pool I choose Arizona over New England. The cardinals cannot lose on Pat Tilman day! 34961[/snapback] I have to agree with this upset too. Besides the fact that it will be Pat Tilman day, I believe the temperature will be somewhere between sweltering and scorching hot. The Cards have at least practiced in this and should be able to handle it better than the Pats.
gantrules Posted September 17, 2004 Author Posted September 17, 2004 Tomlinson can hurt you in so many ways.....my thought is they are going to dump the ball to him more this week b/c the secondary is weak for the Jets. If they can open up some type of down field passing game it should open up the dump pass for LT. And yes LT can run on the outside like a stud. If you've got him on fantasy teams this week I'd be looking for a huge game.
SF Bills Fan Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 My upset special: Bills over Raiders! 34977[/snapback] Agreed, I think we are the upset of the week. ----------- Go Bills
mary owen Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 In the work pool I choose Arizona over New England. The cardinals cannot lose on Pat Tilman day! 34961[/snapback] I did the same thing here. It's an ambush, I tells ya!!!!!! Go Cardinals!!!!!!!
JinVA Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 Agreed, I think we are the upset of the week. ----------- Go Bills 34988[/snapback] I believe that is Dr Z's upset of the week as well
Rico Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 I believe that is Dr Z's upset of the week as well 34999[/snapback] Then we're in trouble.
MDH Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 The last thing I want is for Arizona to shock NE...that would pretty much negate ANY chance the Bills have of pulling an upset 2 weeks later...The Pats aren't losing back to back games to the Cardinals and Bills...
34-78-83 Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 I believe that is Dr Z's upset of the week as well 34999[/snapback] Noooooo!! Not Dr. Z!! Were billsfanone!
YOOOOOO Posted September 17, 2004 Posted September 17, 2004 I'm thinking TB over Seattle....without Alexander Seattle going to have a tough time moving the ball against the TB D....
