Clutch16's Picks of Extreme Awesome:
STEELERS over Browns: Buy a house for the price of a VCR!
Patriots over REDSKINS: That near-collapse at the end of last week's game vs. Indy gives me some doubts about this pick, but the Pats still have yet to clinch their division, so I'm looking for a bit of fight out of them.
JETS over Chiefs: The Jets still have their somewhat-functioning offense starting games.
Texans over BENGALS: Smoke clears and mirrors shatter here. The Texans take their opportunity to wrap up a playoff spot this week.
RAVENS over Colts: I'll pick Indy at some point this year, but not until they've locked up Luck.
PANTHERS over Falcons: If the Falcons couldn't do anything against TJ Yates, they truly are the awful road team everyone accuses them of being.
Buccaneers over JAGUARS: Josh Freeman should be back, and that should be enough to overcome an injury-plagued Jags team.
Saints over TITANS: Tennessee has been a mystery to me all season, but Sean Payton and Drew Brees combined are slightly smarter than me (probably), so I trust them to figure it out.
DOLPHINS over Eagles: The 'phins are surging right now and playing at home. I know it's stretching the bounds of credibility, but I'm looking for the Eagles to play even worse than they have been.
LIONS over Vikings: Any defense that gives up 200 yards and 28 points to Tim Tebow at home is not worth considering versus Megatron.
49ers over CARDINALS: Gotta keep up the pressure. Funny how the Alex Smith Story has given way to the Jim Harbaugh Story though, isn't it?
BRONCOS over Bears: Until either Jay Cutler or Matt Forte come back, there's no use picking Chicago to win versus Duke, much less the Unstoppable Tebow.
PACKERS over Raiders: This one won't be as close as people think. The Giants gave GB a scare, and I'm betting practice won't be a lot of fun this week.
CHARGERS over Bills: San Diego is a tough place to play, and the Bills are on the ropes. Look for a healthier Chargers team to knock 'em out of the chase.
Giants over COWBOYS: The Legend of the Late Season Cowboys Collapse continues apace, and the Giants picked up some confidence by playing GB close. I'm saying there's a tie atop the NFC East standings after Sunday night.
SEAHAWKS over Rams: Over/under on APC MNF Open Thread comments is now set at 73.5
You should tell me what you think, don't you think?

Bengals over Texans. Not totally sure why. I just think the Bengals will be fired up, and Dre’ hurting that hamstring again isn’t a good sign.
Broncos over Bears. I can’t believe I’m actually picking Tebow. I doubt the Broncos score more than 13 points but I also doubt the Bears score more than 7. Caleb Hanie looks terrible. The real question is do I start the Bears defense against Tebow or the 49ers defense against Arizona?
Cowboys over Giants. Seems like a toss up really.

I know everybody else picked Philly to lose, but they can’t have THAT many bad games in a row….. unless Reid wants his head on a pike paraded around town.

"Show me a good loser, and I'll show you a loser." - Vince Lombardi
I'll give it a shot here ...
Steelers over Browns – send in the Browns; those sad, sad, Browns.
Patriots over Redskins - Brady gets the NE up by 35 this time, but Rexy still throws for 300.
Jets over Chiefs – Should be able to score the 13 points needed to win this one.
Bengals over Texans – Dalton to Green has been a excellent combo to go with a stout D.
Ravens over Colts – Cue Chris Berman here – why are they playing this game?
Falcons over Panthers - Should be able to run well against the Carolina D.
Buccaneers over Jaguars – Battle of Florida? Vote for the creamsicles and Freeman.
Lions over Vikings - Stafford and the Lions showed some moxy in staying with the Saints.
UPSET: Titans over Saints – Titans can run the ball and the Saints can’t stop it, especially on the road like their loss to the Rams earlier in the year.
Dolphins over Eagles – Miami has been hotter than the Marlins front office this month.
UPSET: Cardinals over 49ers – after clinching the division the 49ers have a letdown.
Bears over Broncos – the Bears defence finds a way to shutdown the Tebow and Heine gets it together enough to win. Hester takes one back.
Chargers over Bills – SD starting to ramp it up to save Turner’s job … for now.
Cowboys over Giants – The ‘Boys bounce back this week. And with the way the NFC Least has gone this year, the team you don’t except to win does.
Seahawks over Rams – Coin flip says so.
Packers over Raiders – Rodgers continues his majesty over the injury-plagued Raiders.
Proud fan of the 2010 Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks and the 2010 Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers.

Hahaha thanks
Sad thing is, my internet was down for three days until about ten minutes before I posted that. Then I wake up this morning and it was down again. Stupid company is redoing lines.
