Suicide Picks for Week 7

It was good to see that I was able to give some good advice after a big loss in week 5.  The only one that I missed on was telling people to stay away from Dallas, which for all intents and purposes just means there are better options.  For week 6, it looks to be one of the toughest weeks out there.  I am going to stick with what has worked and pick the Chargers.

San Diego is travelling to the opposite coast to play the winless Jaguars.  Now, this is by far the best pick in my opinion, but this would not be the biggest surprise for the Jags to pull this one out.  The big thing that San Diego has going for it, was the fact that the Jags played Denver last week and really gave a good effort, which may lead to them giving a bad one this week.  The Chargers have been known to lay a dud against lower opponents, but they are the best option on a tough week to pick.

Brady to Gronk will get underway
for the first time this week.  I am sure
Brady is pretty excited to get a
familiar face back.

If I couldn't go with San Diego, I would probably go with either New England over the Jets or Green Bay to beat Cleveland.  Neither of them are going to be easy, but sometimes tough decisions need to be made.  The Patriots will most likely finally get Gronk back this week, but just in time to lose Jerrod Mayo out for the season.  I would like to think with the fact that Billy B has more tape on Geno Smith, that he should be able to throw more at him and cause him to make mistakes, much like the first time they played.

Green Bay are losing receivers left and right, but they still have Rodgers and the Browns still have Weeden, who I did like at one point, but he has not really turned the corner.  The Browns have a strong defense, but little offense and they are going to Lambeau, which is never an easy place to play.  The Packers should be able to score enough to win.

Stay Away

KC and Houston, I realize that Case Keenum is starting for the Texans and KC has a great defense, but they don't have a high scoring offense and Houston has a pretty good defense as well.  I am not saying that Houston will definitely win, but there are better options.  Foster and the Texan line can do work against a middle of the pack run defense.
