I had the chance to catch up with our friend FSBlueApocalypse and ask him 5 questions about the Bedazzlers.
1.  Maurice Jones-Drew seems to be handling being the feature back pretty well.  Do you think he will hold up for 16 games?
Jones-Drew has been a 20-25 touches a game back for awhile now w…

Bad news out of Florham Park. Lito Sheppard and Donald Strickland are probably out Sunday. So much for the hopes raised by not signing a free agent corner.
Playing the run-oriented Tennessee Titans without two-fifths of your starting secondary is one thing. Facing Saints quarterback Drew Brees with a banged-up defensive backfield is quite another.That’s what th…

Week 4 NFL Pick Suggestions Brought to You by SportsIntensity

This years NFL Picks are brought to you by SportsIntensity your place for live NFL betting lines.

A little bounce back last week, hopefully this week is a full fledge jump in the right direction.

1. Houston Texans (-9 1/2) vs. Oakland Raiders
The Texans offense is sure to put up 28 points which means the Raiders offense would have to put up at least 20 to beat the spread. JaMarcius Russell is lucky if he completes 20% of his passes nevermind scores 20 points. The Raiders are terrible.

2. Dallas Cowboys (-3 1/2) at Denver Broncos
I know the Cowboys seemingly get a few more points than they should every week thanks to the countless amounts of front runners in our nation, but I still like them to beat the Broncos by more than 4. I'm sorry but I don't believe in the Broncos 3-0 record at all. I think they are the worst 3-0 team in the history of football and that their slide starts this weekend.

3. Detroit Lions (+10 1/2) at Chicago Bears
The Bears have won their last two games late in the 4th quarter via a late score, granted the vcitories came against potentially solid teams, but 10 1/2 points still seems like way too much for them to give.

4. San Diego Chargers (+5.5) at Pittsburgh Steelers
Without Polamalu getting in their way the Chargers will be able to put up points. They'll be able to keep the game close at in the final quarter and I think like the Bengals last week will put together a game winning drive.

5. New York Giants (-9 1/2) at Kansas City Chiefs
The offense of the Chiefs is poor and with the Giants coming off the absolute destruction of the Bucs should be able to replicate that performance this week. The Giants are very very good.

Survivor Pick of the Week: Giants
You can pick the Giants this week or next given their next two games are against the Chiefs and Raiders. This week I think the safe money is on them to cruise to an easy victory so I'm not going to wait.

The Rest of the Picks

Spreadless

Updating the injury file; Kyle Cook has his work cut out for him.

Updating the injuries file. Andre Smith is finally out of his walking boot. Cornerback Johnathan Joseph has dealt was a foot injury the better part of a year (like, actual calendar year). He's missed Wednesday's practice because of a foot injury and rested on Thursday. However, David Jones went through a full practice on Thursday. Even so, Joe Reedy writes, if Joseph can't go, then Geoffrey Pope would be the one whom replaces him. Maualuga, who learned that his younger brother…

New York Giants news and notes: Lawrence Tynes, Brandon Jacobs and more

There is lots of New York Giants stuff to talk about today. So, I hope you have some time on your hands as we wind our way toward the weekend. We'll go topic-by-topic.
Lawrence Tynes and his "shaken" confidence
If you play golf, which I do, you know what it is like to stand over a seemingly simple three-foot putt with a million thoughts running through your head and zero belief that you can actually put the ball in the hole. Or, to tee off and hit what feels and looks li…

Roundup: Moving on …

The hype won't stop for a few more days, but "Brett Favre Day" has come and gone, and we all survived. (At least I think so. Can I get a roll call?)Let's take a spin through the headlines before both teams return to the practice field today …FAVRE WATCH* Favre downplayed his feelings about Monday's game against the Packers. But his close friend, Vikings K Ryan Longwell, said the longest conversation he had with Favre all summer was about facing his old team.* Mike Vand…
