Only 3 games on the card. That just means that I'm REAL confident on these 3 games.

YTD : 27-20-2

Week 8 Sunday Morning/Afternoon Games Lack of time = Lack of writeup<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:City><st1:place>San Diego</st1:place></st1:City> Chargers -3.0 vs. <st1:City><st1:place>New Orleans</st1:place></st1:City> Saints (<st1:City><st1:place>London</st1:place></st1:City> Game)<o:p></o:p>
Both teams had high hopes to start the season. Vegas had both teams at less than 2:1 odds to win their division at the start of the year. Both teams have failed to live up to expectations so far. And Both Teams can’t afford to lose in this one. Unfortunately 1 will, and that team is the New Orleans Saints. The Chargers are going to expose the very weak defense of the New Orleans Saints in this one. No Reggie Bush for the Saints, and there’s a 50% chance that Shockey won’t go for them either. Not only do I like the Chargers to win this game, I like them to use this game as the start of a win streak that will see them back to the top of the AFC. Chargers roll here, and the Saints season is done.

Mac Picks: San Diego Pick -3.0<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<st1:City><st1:place>Cleveland</st1:place></st1:City> Browns at <st1:City><st1:place>Jacksonville</st1:place></st1:City> Jaguars -7.0<o:p></o:p>
I’m taking <st1:City><st1:place>Cleveland</st1:place></st1:City> here not only on the spread, but on the money line as well.
<o:p> </o:p>
Mac Picks: <st1:City><st1:place>Cleveland</st1:place></st1:City> +7.0<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
<st1:State><st1:place>New York</st1:place></st1:State> Giants at <st1:City><st1:place>Pittsburgh</st1:place></st1:City> Steelers -3.0
This game is a complete mismatch. These two teams are not even on the same level.

Like the NYG too Mac. PIT is tuff at home, which is why the public like them, but NYG are road warriors. Jacobs has proven time & again that he and his oline can run on strong "D"s. I think PIT won't know how to stop them when they really need to. And sack-happy Ben should get pressure from NYG's good pass rush.

Both CLE & SD are gutsy pix, IMHO Mac. So I wish you the best there! Ride that CLE!

A brash statement considering that the sportsbooks have the Steelers as favorites to win the AFC. If the Browns were better than the Giants when they faced each other (a nice call on your part) and the Steelers aren't even on the same level as the Giants, by God the Browns should be -245 to win the AFC, instead of the +9500 currently being hung on them!

These picks stink. They have no chance. Steel City in a romp. Nahlins gonna fool ya. JacksonJerky easy money. 0-3 you go.












Just kidding. I respect your picks and you may have changed my mind on the NYG/Pitt game. I'm going to look at it a little closer. Good luck Mac.

word is Aaron Smith may not play today due to "personal reasons". Last year teams ran all over the Steelers when he was out of the lineup
