Pickin' Up the Pieces

Wednesday November 5, 2003
Lately, my picks have resembled the play of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers... up one week, down the next. One week I look like the owner of a Super Bowl contender, the next, I'm cleaning up empty beer cups under the bleachers. For the season, I'm at 83-47 straight up. My first picks of the year against the spread (7-5-2) were nothing to write home about either. This week, I'll go against the spread again, and as always, read on for this week's regular picks.

My picks are in bold.

Arizona at Pittsburgh, 1:00 pm
Atlanta at N.Y. Giants, 1:00 pm
Chicago at Detroit, 1:00 pm
Cleveland at Kansas City, 1:00 pm
Houston at Cincinnati, 1:00 pm
Indianapolis at Jacksonville, 1:00 pm
Miami at Tennessee, 1:00 pm
Seattle at Washington, 1:00 pm
Tampa Bay at Carolina, 1:00 pm
Minnesota at San Diego, 4:05 pm
Buffalo at Dallas, 4:15 pm
N.Y. Jets at Oakland, 4:15 pm
Baltimore at St. Louis, 8:30 pm
Philadelphia at Green Bay (Mon)

Season record heading into week 10: 83-47
