Remember, use my picks to wager $$$ at your own risk. I pick heads-up winners, not the spread. If you lose, I had nothing to do with it. If you win beaucoup $$$, a 10% tip would be cool.  But, I’m realistic. This is just for your entertainment…or not, and for me to keep my sports “mojo” going until “I’m back in the saddle”. Remember the league’s unofficial motto…“ON ANY GIVEN SUNDAY, MONDAY, THURSDAY, FRIDAY OR SATURDAY……….

LAST WEEK: 9-4  SEASON TOTAL: 53-37

SUNDAY

CHICAGO BEARS (3-3) -1.5 vs. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (4-2) O/U 43.5 pts
-This game’s in London, England. NFL suits have decided to have more than one game in merry old England through the 2016 season in hopes of gaining a fan base to permanently put a team in London. Bucs owner Malcolm Glazer owns soccer’s Manchester United. Who cares. Here’s an idea. How about concentrating on putting a team in the second largest market here…Los Angeles and fixing stadium issues in your current markets before looking to London!! BUCCANEERS

WASHINGTON REDSKINS (3-2) +2.5 @ CAROLINA PANTHERS (1-5) 43 pts
-Redskins with QB issues starting John Beck. Panthers just fine at QB with rookie and top overall draft pick Cam Newton throwing darts in every game. PANTHERS

SAN DIEGO CHARGERS (4-1) +1 @ NY JETS of NEW JERSEY (3-3) 43.5 pts
-Chargers off to a strong start for the first time in five seasons. Jets can’t run the ball. QB Mark Sanchez is having issues and that Jets defense isn’t what it was the last couple of seasons. CHARGERS

SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (2-3) +3 @ CLEVELAND BROWNS (2-3) 41 pts
-Browns GM Mike Holmgren going against one of his former teams. BROWNS

HOUSTON TEXANS (3-3) +3 @ TENNESSEE TITANS (3-2) 44 pts
-Texans banged-up. QB Matt Schaub, WR Andre Johnson questionable. DE/LB Mario Williams out for season. TITANS

DENVER BRONCOS (1-4) PK @ MIAMI DOLPHINS (0-5) 41.5 pts
-It’s Florida Gators Day in Miami. Broncos QB and ex-Gator gets his first start of the season. BRONCOS

ATLANTA FALCONS (3-3) +4 @ DETROIT LIONS (5-1) 47.5 pts
-Let’s hope the post game handshake between Atlanta’s Mike smith and Detroit’s Jim Schwartz goes well. I don’t think the Lions will lose two straight at  Ford Field. It’ll be close. LIONS

KANSAS CITY CHIELFS (2-3) +4 @ OAJLAND RAIDERS (4-2) 41 pts
-Raiders starting Kyle Boller at QB after Jason Campbell went down with a broken collar-bone last week. One bad throw and here comes newly acquired Carson Palmer. .Either way, Raiders better. RAIDERS

PITTSBURGH STEELERS (4-2) -4 @ ARIZONA CARDINALS (1-4) 44 pts
-First meeting since that incredible Super Bowl 43 Steelers win. Cards with issues coming off a bye week. Steelers have Troy Polamalu back but are missing James Harrison who returned a Kurt Warner interception 100 yards for a score in Super Bowl 43. CARDINALS

ST; LOUIS RAMS (0-5) +14 @ DALLAS COWBOYS (2-3) 43 pts
-Rams made a trade for WR Brandon Lloyd. That filled an absolute need. Problem is QB Sam Bradford is out with a high ankle sprain suffered last week at Green Bay. A.J. Feeley starts for the Rams. COWBOYS

GREEN BAY PACKERS (6-0) -9.5 @ MINNESOTA VIKINGS (1-5) 47 pts
-Norseman rookie QB Christian Ponder takes over for veteran Donovan McNabb who I think is getting a raw deal. Not his fault his receivers drop balls right in there hands or the Vikings defense gives up two second half 20 point leads. Anyway, Packers could go 16-0. PACKERS

INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (0-6) +13.5 @ NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (4-2) 49 pts
-First meeting since the Saints’ Super Bowl 44 win over the Colts. No Peyton Manning in this one. SAINTS

MONDAY

BALTIMORE RAVENS (4-1) -9 @ JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (1-5) 40 pts
-Ravens coming off a bye week. RAVENS

BYE WEEK: BUFFALO, CINCINNATI, *LOS ANGELES, NEW ENGLAND,
NY GIANTS, PHILADELPHIA, SAN FRANCISCO

*LOS ANGELES (16 seasons, 7 weeks)
