Which one if these teams has no shot at winning this week? I ask because, in a pool where I need to pick one team each week to lose. Do any of these two have a chance in hell of winning? Browns coming of bye vs. NYG. Will STL get anything going with a new coach this week against WAS? Only 19 of the orginal 131 left due to all of the upsets so far. Winner gets over $2600! Who would you bet your last dollar against? I thank the SNMB for their wisdom.

Neither have a shot in hell. If I had to pick which has a worse shot it's the Clowns.

I think you're good either way. The only way I would lean towards the G'ints is because the Skins have had 2 very brutal division games and they are primed for that Bronco-Chief letdown. Not saying it will happen but I can see them taking a breather.

I would pick the Rams as being more likely to lose...While the AFC North has yet to win against an NFC East team (soon to change), I get the feeling that Cleveland will have the same kind of fire against the Giants as they did against the Steelers. They played much better vs. the Steelers than they have against anyone else, in my opinion. However, Derek Anderson will be SOL if Winslow misses the game.

I'm sorry, y'all. I hate the rest of the teams in the AFC North as much as anyone in here but I am sick of the east coast bullsh*t. Wash, NYG, Dal, and Phil are the only teams any of the analysts talk about being any good...and for some reason, the cheatriot nut-swinging has continued to go on even though they SUCK!!!

The rest of the AFC North will drop out of the playoff race in the next 4-5 weeks. The Steelers should, on paper, carry a 6-0 divisional record this season. That being the case, I will be cheering for the hated teams in the Steelers' dust to steal some wins from people that pose home-field and playoff matchup problems with Pittsburgh. With that said, my picks for this weekend.

Chicago over Atlanta...too much defense for Matt Ryan
Houston over Miami...Hou got cheated last weekend and I expect a letdown from a young Miami team
Ratbirds over Indy...Indy is a mess this year, and they won't be able to stop Baltimore's D
Minnesota over Detroit...ugly game, better team will likely win
NO over Oak...Each year Al Davis lives is another that Raider Nation has no pride. :-)
NYJ over Bungles...O-line will dominate Cincinnati's front 7, Jones and Washington are salivating.
Carolina over Tampa...Carolina is very good
Washington over StL...no explanations needed here
Jax over Denver...Steelers beat a good team on Sunday night, and I think Denver is overrated
Arizona over Dallas...upset special of the weekend! Dallas is starting to come unraveled already!
Philly starts a 3-4 game streak with SanFran...any team that is good enough to beat us....
Seattle over Green Bay...in Seattle, just have a feeling...both teams are really beat up
San Diego over Cheaters...hopefully...
NYG over Stains...NYG looked great last weekend, but looked very beatable against Cincinnati. I honestly think it will be a competitive game, though.

Just pick against the Bengals every week - you should be safe.

They do play Houston once. That one could be close.

You are probably right

The Browns will be wearing their throwback jerseys....and the pic they show of the uni has their receiver dropping the ball.....sounds like an omen to me.

Since the Browns are at home and the Rams will be in Washington, I'll say the Rams have a better chance of losing.

I participated in SN's suicide pool years ago. Week 1, I picked the Cowboys as the sure winner, since they were playing the expansion Houston Texans. The pool would not let me pick a team as the "sure winner" more than once, so I figured picking a mediocre Dallas team was a good bet, since they were playing against a squad involved in their first ever NFL game.

Houston beat Dallas and I was out of the pool after week 1. So, don't look for advice from me.

Bulger= Maddox
Why hve they been unable to get Holt the ball, with Bruce gone have teams been playing Holt over the top, Pace is back but it could be that Alex Barronn sucks almost as much as Colon.
thier DL seems decent Little Glover Carriker Long
LB's thin other than Witherspoon 2 turds.
And a secondary full of nobody's.

They look like 1-15-3-13 team if so take Laurantis and keep building that D, they should call about Roy Williams WR & Housh to take pressure off Holt.

Can't trade Holt 4 shit,

tough call, but the Browns have weapons and a very good Oline, Cincy took the Giants to wire in NY, so I'd lean toward the Rams losing. The Redskins can run and throw.

good OL, DL is all they have, Aside from Braylon & Winslow lousy WR's u would think they would of done research on Donte's injury riddled career before giving him 30 mill/5yrs.

Secondary avg, its no Doubt Anderson had Maddox yr and reality has settled back.

With Winslow in the hospital, I feel better about the pick
