Well the NFL picks standings may currently be 36-10 for Lucas and an underwhelming 29-17 for me, but I'm not the Rams. I'm capable of coming from behind and winning, and I'm going to see this through all the way to its completion...

NO at DET: NO. The Lions almost beat the Packers last week, must to the chagrin of Lucas. This week they're playing a team with a defense, though.

CAR at GB: GB. Oh those lucky lucky Packers. As unimpressive as they've looked all season, they still manage to not only have a winning record, but they still have a "healthy" Terry Glenn. Not that he's had any impact whatsoever, but at least he hasn't been a distraction...yet.

MIA at KC: MIA. The Patriots may have overlooked the Chiefs, but the Dolphins saw last week's game and won't make the same mistake. While tearing my hair out last week watching the Pats give up yard after yard to Priest Holmes, one couldn't help but scream out "HE IS THEIR ONLY GOOD PLAYER! COVER HIM!" And I did. Numerous times.

CHI at BUF: BUF. The lucky Bears finally lost last week, and now they get to play at that wacky stadium they have in Buffalo. Buffalo's entire secondary is injured, but look for Bledsoe to throw 2...no 3 picks anyway.

DAL at STL: STL. For the third straight week, the Rams are "not panicking" despite the fact they have no wins this season and their all-world quarterback looks like he may have pulled a Rookie of the Year and lost whatever magic he obtained 4 years ago. Note to the most arrogant coach in the NFL: if you lose to the Cowboys, it's time to start panicking.

HOU at PHI: PHI. Don't need to back up this pick at all. David Carr is averaging about 90 yards passing per game. That's not good.

CLE at PIT: PIT. You don't honestly expect the Steelers to go 0-3 do you? Not as long as Bill Cowher is their coach. He scares the hell out of me, and he gets madder and madder the more they lose. If Kordell struggles early, we may have a Tommy Maddox sighting.

NYJ at JAX: JAX. I don't think the Jets could beat their own practice squad right now. I'm not kidding.

NYG at AZ: AZ. The Giants only beat the Seahwaks by 3 last week. Therefore I don't pick them this week. They've done the crime, now they'll do the time.

TB at CIN: TB. Hahahahahahaha. The Bengals' organization is one gigantic joke. Laugh it up folks, I smell 0-16.

TEN at OAK: OAK. The Tennessee Titans (still the stupidest name in sports) may or may not show up to this game, depending apparently on a variety of factors that have nothing to do with football. How else to explain their loss to Dallas?

NE at SD: NE. I pity Drew Brees. The Super Bowl Champion defense probably got their asses kicked this week in practice for letting the Chiefs put a 38-spot on them. I don't think all of the Chargers will leave the stadium alive.

MIN at SEA: MIN. Is their ever anything going through Randy Moss' head? "Hmm...that woman is stopping me from making an illegal turn. Gut reaction: push her down the street. Go with it Randy. You're the man." He's like a walking circus act. If he and Brian Griese ever got together, the world might cease to spin on its axis.

DEN at BAL: DEN. Brian Griese may have been pushed down the stairs by his own dog (you just can't make this stuff up people), but last time I checked the Ravens had one touchdown all season. Note to to the second-most arrogant coach in the NFL: you must score points to win.
