Gage's Later and Later Picks - Week 13

Minnesota (+9) over Chicago
In the shit-tacular NFC, there's going to be a couple of ridiculously mediocre teams that make the playoffs. This week the Vikings look up and find themselves with a chance to win that distinction. I think they just want this one more than the Bears, who will be looking to bounce back, but nine goddamned points?

Washington (-1.5) over Atlanta
It just seems like a good time to pick against Atlanta. Finger-gate continues as Vick has to go on the road. Good time for a complete freefall. Maybe the Jason Campbell experience works out and Washington finally has a quarterback.

Miami (pick) over Jacksonville
Dolphins - a team on the rise. Jaguars - slumping. That said, Jacksonville is utterly unpredictable, but at least they're on the road. And just in case you're keeping track, I just bet on Joey Harrington.

Oakland (-3) over Houston
Gage's Law pick. That's right, go Raiders! We're demoting coordinators as Art Shell considers waking up from his coma any day now. And I'm betting on them. This is why I continue to lose.

Dallas (-3) over NY Giants
It's Romo-rific! Strahan's head explodes under the pressure of knowing he hurt someone's feelings. Seriously, is anybody betting against Romo at this point?

To summarize, this week I'm betting on one crummy team, two rookie quarterbacks, Joey Harrington and the Radiers. I'm an idiot.

Last Week: 4-1
Season Total: 30-27-2

Yeah I'll let you Bengals fans know what the playoffs are like this year. Ooh and I see a Bengals player got arrested this weekend for punching a cop. That's new. Burn!

fyi, if the playoffs started next week the bengals would be in. When was the last time a qb threw three picks and his team won a playoff game.

The Bears will win in the playoffs if they punt on first down every possession. Grossman needs to grow a beard or move over and let Orton play. This time of the year calls for a bearded QB.
