Upset Specialists: Week 4

Recommended Posts

Current Standings:

Spartan Havoc 10

GA_Eagle 7

Bware 6

Zack 6
Bucman 6

Vin 5

Razor 4

blots 2

Bay -1

Rain Man -2

SteVo -2

Packers Dynasty -3

Chernobyl -9

 

Note: Added Pick Option, moving forward--The Absurd Upset Pick, worth 5 points. Each week, moving forward, I'll throw out some games that posters can pick in an attempt to make a climb in the standings. They're worth 5 points if they happen, but count for -3 points if they miss.

 

This week's Absurd Upset options--Tampa/Pittsburgh, Jax/San Diego. Choose at your own risk.

 

My upset picks for the week:

 

Vikings over Falcons

-I don't believe Minnesota has a better team than Atlanta, but I'm feeling a huge debut week (as a starter) for Bridgewater and a refocused gameplan by Norv Turner that doesn't abandon the run, prematurely.

 

That's the only one I'm feeling.

49ers > Eagles

 

Nothing is sacred in Pittsburgh, so screw it, I'll try one of those absurd options.

 

TAMPA > PITTSBURGH. A team notorious for playing down to it's competition? YEAH I'M FEELING IT.

The 49ers are favored by 5.5 points. How is that an upset?

My guess is Dallas moves towards a push as the week goes on. That game is a toss up, but I think Dallas screws up at home. So despite the Saints looking like pretenders the first three weeks, I can't pick the Boys to beat them.

 

I'll go Tennessee and Carolina for this week.

 

Despite the line mess, I'll go with my heart here and go Eagles over San Fran,

I have no idea why San Fran is favored over Philadelphia. I'm fine with that upset pick.

Gimme the Chiefs over the Pats, and the Cowboys over the Saints if you'll accept it.

49ers > Eagles was easy money. If the Eagles defense weren't on steroids, the Niners would have blown us out.
