I like the Seahawks/Cardinals game. I expect a heated divisional game.

Well there is one game this week that actually has divisional leaders facing off and that is Broncos/Texans. Throw in there are a lot of story lines to this one such as Kubiak facing his old team. Osweiler having his chance to prove the Broncos letting him go was a mistake while the defense finally gets to hit him. Both teams needing a good game to show they are the real deal. So plenty to get excited about.

Still if I was a bit more objective the Cardinals/Seahawks game looks much more intriguing. At least more than just a couple of weeks ago when the Cardinals looked to be down and out.

Especially since they will be going up against the refs too.

Touche`. I will put you down as one that prefers that more flags be thrown so the outcome rests firmly in the hands of the refs.

I wouldn't say any fan wants more flags just for the big calls like that in the Seattle/Atlanta game to be called. This is why I wouldn't mind especially late in the game for those kind of plays to be reviewable because they are such big moments and you hate to see the officials get it wrong really costing a team a great chance at winning the game.

Understand I'm not saying the Falcons lost only because of that missed call. They had their opportunities at other points in the game and didn't capitalize. Just that was a big missed call at a critical moment.

If a ref keeps the flag in his pocket when there should be a call he is changing the outcome of the game. It goes both ways.

Oh I know which is why I wouldn't mind seeing some of that pressure on the officials to get it right taken away from them. I'm sure they wouldn't mind either where if you make some of that reviewable or have another official up in a booth that can make the obvious calls that are missed then at least to me as a fan I feel better about them getting things right especially at the end of the game.

Let them play unless it is obvious. 3 all pros going for the same ball. Expect a contest in that situation

 

[Tidergirl]

Seahawks and Cardinals for sure. Fighting for supremacy in the NFC West. This could be a great game!

Agree with this. A good physical game. Team that gets to 20 will win...

I like Texans @ Broncos, will be interesting to see Oz smoke the team that let him go ... heheh
Homer pick: Pats @ Steelers

It's so funny to see your tears over that game. Atlanta couldn't move the ball at that point without a penalty. That's why they called a play looking for one, and used illegal contact to get downfield to get it. I can see why you liked their pussy ass strategy, sorry it didn't work out for ya.

so why didn't you vote?

He wanted a guarenteed 78% return.

1. Minny and Philly. Let's see who's real.
I would've voted NE @ PIT but with no Big Ben it lost a little of the attraction.
2. WA @ DET this looks like two evenly matched teams. Good to see them both doing well.
3. SEA @ AZ. Important game for AZ no doubt but the way this season has gone it's lost some luster.

Cards/Hawks, but other was close for me. I think GB/Chi will be a close competitive game.

I'm so mad. In my weekly office pool ATS, we have until 11:59 PM Wednesday night to change our picks. I was really thinking about changing to the Bears but I kept the Packers.

That's a tough one. I keep going back and forth. I feel like Arod could go all Arod at a moment's notice.
