How about Sean Alexander with 5 (count ‘em) 5 TD’s in the FIRST HALF for the Shehawks!!!
La Danlian (sp?) Tomlinson rushed for 217 yards on 27 carries, pretty impressive too.

…..and how about dem Cowboys???

 

[Mooster7]

Yeah, how about them Cowboys? Unbelievable, but very welcome. There were a few strange results this week that I didn't mind getting burned on with my picks. Number one on the list was Denver losing. I'll take some more (non Chiefs) AFC West losses. That's why I'll be pulling hard for Buffalo.

MOOSTER PICKS WEEK 5:

Atlanta
Buffalo (Unless it's a no-brainer, go with what you want rather than what will probably happen)
Dallas
Tennessee (can you believe how badly the raiders smashed them?)
Indy
Miami (KC showed that you can run against the Pats, San Diego had no choice but to run against them, Miami has Ricky Williams)
Pittsburgh
Arizona (one of the stronger teams in the NFC West this year
)
KC (This is the week to pick them)
Denver (looked like hell against the Ravens, but I need them to pull out and beat San Diego)
San Fran (0-5 for St. Louis? Yup. Kurt Warner is out)
Philly
Cleveland (Cleveland is real. Baltimore had an amazing game - nothing more)

TMF: Green Bay - The Pack are playing a bit numb, but I would be disowned by half the family if I didn't pick them for this ancient rivalry match-up.

 

[X_box_X]

I'm fairly happy with my week 4 results. However, 8 of the pace will be extremely hard to make up.



Atlanta
Oakland
Dallas
Tennessee
Cincinnati
Miami
Pittsburgh
Arizona
NY Jets

Hopefully I can get atleast 10 winners in week 5 *Here's hoping*

we stopped the Priest....but Gonzalez burnt our secondary BAD for a career best 3 TD game (7-140)
most WR's don't get those kinda numbers, let alone a TE ...... OUCH !!!!!!
(I can still smell the toasting that Arturo Freeman received)

(it sure ain't gettin any easier tipping in the NFL)

Philly
Cleveland (Rocks)

How can I give Winston a hard time? He's kicking me in the pool!

You stopped Priest Holmes? To what end? The only way to stop Holmes is to cheat your Linebackers and Strong Safety up. That leaves gaping holes in your secondary, and that is the reason Tony Gonzales owned the field.

Yes, you can hold one of the best Running Backs in the NFL. IF you ignore the best Tight End in the NFL.

Conversely so far, teams that have focused on Gonzales have been shredded by Holmes. Either or, no one has really stopped our offense (Jags did, but we had poor play calling IMO). Now, if we could plug up our pass D, we could go to the Super Bowl. Otherwise, we are an 8-8 team.

 

[Mooster7]

PS: We stopped Ricky Williams.

ALSO PPS: How about when Arturo Freeman got knocked on his ass by.........Trent Green.

OK, that's enough gouging at Winston - who is kicking my hindQ in the pool.

Then what's the MetroStars' excuse, Kasey?

The pitch at the ground looks gawd-awful this year... saw if a few weeks ago on the SBS review show, and anyone there should feel personally offended that no one there-- the Jets, Giants or the MetroStars-- cannot play on a quality grass pitch.

Cheers,
William
