Week 5 Fun Times
Week 5 offers a number of intriguing games. The Grizzly Bear & I are back to offer our picks for this week!
Oakland @ Houston:
Grizzly’s Pick: HOUSTON; Houston is the team to beat in the south
Fred MRMins Pick: The Raiders should be charged up after the passing of Al Davis but they are facing a team that is far superior. Look for the Raiders bereavement to keep the game closer than it should be with the Texans winning 31-20.
Tampa Bay @ San Francisco:
Grizzly’s Pick: TBAY; Tbay will show what philly and cincy tried to do the past 2 weeks but failed
Fred MRMins Pick: Potentially the best game of the week. Two teams destined for playoff contention can solidify their playoff hopes. Expect a defensive battle with the 49ers pulling it out 17-13.
Jets @ Patriots:
Grizzly’s Pick: JETS; jets WILL NOT go into their MNF game against Miami under .500
Fred MRMins Pick: The Jets have looked like a high school football team the last few weeks; expect that to continue with the Patriots smacking them around 45-3.
Green Bay @ Atlanta:
Grizzly’s Pick: GBAY; Atlanta is a diff team and will not win the championship game of last year that should have happened
Fred MRMins Pick: Atlanta’s offense has looked stagnant at times this season. Green Bay’s offense has yet to sputter this year. I expect more of the same with the Packers winning 42-24.
Chicago @ Detroit:
Grizzly’s Pick: DETROIT; Detroit to remain undefeated
Fred MRMins Pick: The Bears are a mediocre team that seems to have outplayed who they are for some time now. The Lions continue to improve in every facet of the game. If Stafford doesn’t get hurt the Lions should coast to a 34-10 victory.
