I think the Khalil Mack trade is a lose - lose for both teams. The Raiders lose a good player. And for the Bears, one player isn't worth that much, especially since the rules keep favoring the offense. Right now, I'm thinking even if the Raiders had Mack, they still wouldn't be a good team. They have a lot of problems. We'll see if the 4 draft picks that the Raiders got for him, amount to anything. |

Is he really that great? Or are the Raiders really that bad. I have never seen an NFL with absolutely no heart like this seasons Raiders. Even as a Raider hater, it's depressing to watch. |

The Raiders are 32nd in pressuring the quarterback.

I think last year's Browns can beat the current Raiders in a 7 game series.

The Browns would probably sweep them.

Week 9 Picks
TNF: Raiders @ 49ers: Duh(I don't think anyone picked the Raiders)
Bears @ Bills: Bears
Chiefs @ Browns: Chiefs
Jets @ Dolphins: Dolphins
Lions @ Vikings: Lions
Falcons @ Redskins: Falcons
Buccaneers @ Panthers: Panthers
Steelers @ Ravens: Ravens
Texans @ Broncos: Broncos (interesting match up)
Chargers @ Seahawks: Chargers (another interesting match up)
Rams @ Saints: Saints (game of the week)
SNF: Packers @ Patriots: Packers (also game of the week)
MNF: Titans @ Cowboys: Cowboys
I know the Raiders @ 49ers already happened, but I swear on my life I had 49ers winning big. I don't think the Raiders are winning another game this season. I don't really have any upsets. I wanted to pick the Browns to upset the Chiefs but the Browns have allowed the most big plays in the NFL and the Chiefs are the best in the league at creating big plays. I don't think the Browns have enough to keep up, even if Baker has a career game. Texans @ Broncos is very interesting. So many connections between the 2 teams. Both coached by Kubiak, Case Keenum played for both. Demaryius Thomas getting traded there. Both teams appear to be evenly matched. I think this will be a very good and close game. I have the Broncos winning although I think Demaryius Thomas has a big game: 100 yards and 2 td's(please help my fantasy. I need you bad, DT). Chargers @ Seahawks is also interesting because both teams are very hot, yet none of them have beaten anyone good yet and still have a lot to prove. The Chargers a great passing team while the Seahawks have a good pass defense. I have the Chargers winning because I'm a Chargers fan and I also think they are a better overall team than the Seahawks. Melvin Gordon is back after his week 7 absence/week 8 bye. I think the Chargers need to keep their offense on the ground and keep Russell Wilson off the field. I think Rivers has a quiet, but effective game. 3 pass TD's and not too many passing yards due Melvin Gordon and Austin Ekeler moving the ball. I have Saints over Rams because of home field and because it looks like the Rams are now "playing not to lose". I think the Packers would have won that game if Ty Montgomery wasn't being a dumbass. Broncos were able to hang around for a little bit as well. I don't have much to say about Packers vs Patriots. Brady vs Rodgers is the only thing interesting. Patriots have a better team, but I think Rodgers has his night and wills them to victory in Gillette Stadium. As for Titans @ Cowboys; I drafted Zeke over Melvin Gordon in all of my fantasy leagues. I'm really pissed about that right now so Zeke better turn his shit around. Hopefully the addition of Amari Cooper spreads the field a little bit for Zeke.

I think the Texans will win, because I don't trust the Broncos.
What do you like about the Saints?

I trust the Broncos pass offense more than I trust the Chargers kicking right now. Holy moly. Saints are a well rounded team. Great offense. At home. Like I said, Rams are playing not to lose at this point or more like "playing to keep their streak alive" sort of thing.

Whoops, I didn't realize you had your picks next to each line.
I was reading your paragraph, because I thought you talked about every game in there.

Yeah, I was just talking about the games that were relevant to me. Only thing relevant about the Falcons/Redskins game is that I have Matt Ryan and Tevin Coleman in fantasy. I'm sure you don't need me to bore you with my fantasy talk. Zeke and David Johnson better start pretending to be 1st round talent though.

Chargers won. Despite their crappy kicking game. Can't believe that freaking kicker cost us five points and the game came down to the final play. We should have won very comfortably. I cheer for both the Chargers and the Rams. Wouldn't that be the best Super Bowl of all time if they both made it.
