Thursday NFL Picks

Last week when I made my last minute (sunday morning) picks I went about 4-38. And this week since there are turkey day games, I'm once again making last minute picks... so I'm only picking two games today, and I'll pick the rest tomorrow or saturday.

So this week my first thoughts were: to pick against Detroit (because they seem to like to lose on Thanksgiving) and with Denver (since they seem to be pretty good this season, at least thats what others think). BUT here are my picks:

at Detroit OVER Atlanta - So I believe I have picked Atlanta two weeks in a row and they've failed me both times. I'm picking against them once again... just watch this is the week they'll turn it around and beat Detroit on a day Detroit hasn't been very good the past few years. Michael Vick will throw for 325 yards, run for a TD and throw two. Anyways, I don't like picking this game because, aside from highlights, I haven't seen either team play since about week 1 or 2.

at Dallas OVER Denver - Denver is everyones favorite team behind the Colts, but Dallas seems to win on Thanksgiving. So I'm going with Dallas because I think they are a good team with a good coach. I don't think Mike Shanahan is all that good of a coach (John Elway and Terrell Davis got him that Super Bowl) and I'm waiting for Jake Plummer to throw 3 interceptions... it HAS to happen.
