NFL 2004 Season Week 7 Picks

Titans 3 @ Vikings 20

Jeremy: You can say all you want about Daunte Culpepper. He's on pace for easily the greatest season any quarterback has ever played. Going into the Saints game he was already on pace for the best season. It’s hard for people to believe players can sustain their torrent early season pace. Well he UPPED the pace amassing more yards then the Saints had and threw for 5 tds for the 3rd time. That is all great, but the most telling thing about Daunte this year, perhaps because it goes directly against a common knock on Daunte, is he had his best game EVER without Randy Moss on the field for half the game. With Randy Moss in street clothes rooting from the sideline he led the Vikes to 24 points. As many points as 21 teams had in their entire game. The Vikes had 10 more points without Randy than with, 5 teams scored 10 or fewer points in their game last week. If Randy doesn’t suit up he ends his starting streak, he's never missed a pre, regular or post season game. If he doesn't dress oddly enough his consecutive catches and TD's lives on, because it only counts games you play. (Rice, who holds the TD record, apparently missed almost an entire season.)

Matt: As a protest to Jeremy's random and dictatorial decision to post this page early and before my picks were in, I will make no game comments this week other than this: Free Larry Ned.

Jon: Moss, no Moss, no matter. Minnesota is on a roll.

Sarah: I dislike Tennessee. They shamed us at OUR house. I hope they do that at the dome, but I am going to have to pick the Vikings as long as they keep hanging in there. Even though they have been putting the points on the board, they haven't been keeping them off either. AKA defense needs a little work. Tennessee really kind of sucked last week. COME ON!

Cowboys 20 @ Packers 41

Jeremy: I don't know where to go with this one. On one hand the Packers always seem to lay an egg after a big win, on the other hand they can't really go 0-4 at home....can they? I'm still pissed about my phantom Lions pick last week, I picked the Packers...I did...I don't know what happened. The Packers owe me for the win because I've only hit one Packer game this year. So I'll pick GB cause if they win, I'll get it right and if they lose I wont care because it's always good when they lose.

Jon: Hey Sarah, how do you like your tuna? With a side of creamed corn?

Sarah: OOOOO the hated cowboys. It's like the mid 90's all over again. Except, both of these teams suck. :( Last week's game was a bit invigorating though. I really didn't think we had it in us. But, something turned the Pack around and they played with some heart. That's what has been lacking these last 4 weeks. Driver turned it up a notch, and I loved the TD pass by Green. He is being bothered by a sore achilles tendon, so he might not get much playing time again. The team just has to work together, and anything is possible.

Broncos 10 @ Bengals 23

Jeremy: John is going to kill Boomer in this matchup.

Jon: This week I'll be starting at running back for the Broncos.

Sarah: Oh my boys the Bengals playing Monday night. I am picking them to win and I am not sure why. Anything could happen I suppose. A better game to talk about would be the Pats Jets game. That should be interesting. The Pats will really be tested, and maybe their streak will end.
