Pickin' Pigskin with Kristin: Week 8

The magicalness of Bob and Kristin's wedding.

Every week, in addition to the picks by Bob and I, his wife Kristin picks games. She is behind Bob right now, but kicking the crap out of me, so I have no qualms about pointing out that at least her Redskins won't lose a game this week.

Houston over BUFFALO (3.5)

Kristin: Houston

I always think about the weather in Buffalo as the major determining factor of their success. It's going to be a pleasantly warm Halloween (at least in Virginia) so I'm thinking that Buffalo is going down.

CHICAGO over Cleveland (14)

Kristin: Cleveland

Last weekend, we got a bar to turn from the Dallas game to the Bears game for a friend to watch his home team. I'm almost surprised we didn't have the game changed on us or worse when the Bears were made to look foolish and we all went home at halftime. While they will obviously not look as foolish against Cleveland, I don't have faith that they go up by more than 14.

DALLAS over Seattle (9)

Kristin: Seattle

I hate Dallas. They lose because they're not fabulous this season, but then they win when I call them out and predict a loss. I don't think they are good enough to beat a decent team by 9.

DETROIT over St. Louis (4)

Kristin: Detroit

I think the Lions are the better of these two terrible teams - isn't that sad?

INDIANAPOLIS over San Francisco (13)

Kristin: Indianapolis

San Fran was cool to watch at the being of the season, but I'm over them. Indy may not be as good as years past but they still can put up big points in big wins.

NY JETS over Miami (3.5)

Kristin: Miami

Ooooooooh go Miami go! I get super excited at the idea of anyone beating the Jets. I hate hate their “yellow-faced I have hepatitis from my secret second career as a 1970s porn star” quarterback.

PHILADELPHIA over NY Giants (1)

Kristin: Giants

Ewww. I hate picking the Giants, but how can they blow it three weeks in a row? It would be nice for everyone to see just how pathetic the Giants really are. You can't survive on a shaky spiral and a bullheaded assmunch offense that relies on giving Tom Brady a concussion instead of heart and talent forever.

BALTIMORE over Denver (3)

Kristin: Denver

Grumble. Denver played us much better than Baltimore, and despite loving the Baltimore 30 On 30 episode and feeling so sad for those fat crying men, Baltimore were sore losers so I hope they lose again.

TENNESSEE over Jacksonville (3)

Kristin: Jacksonville

I think this might finally be a Tennessee win, but I'm not ready to pick them.

SAN DIEGO over Oakland (17)

Kristin: Oakland

Sorry, too big a spread for me. I don't think my teddy bear former husband would allow them to lose by that much. Miss you!

ARIZONA over Carolina (10.5)

Kristin: Arizona

Muh.

GREEN BAY over Minnesota (3)

Kristin: Green Bay

I taking Green Bay because they are at home and because Minnesota couldn't beat the Steelers last week, which made everyone tease me.

NEW ORLEANS over Atlanta (10.5)

Kristin: New Orleans

I heart the Saints.
