It's that time again. It's time to once again go around the internet and see who the "experts" are picking on Monday night.
Chris Mortensen - NYJ | Adam Schefter - NYJ | Tom Jackson - Mia |
Mike Ditka - Mia | Pete Prisco - Mia | Harmon Forecast - NYJ |
PFT - Mia | Peter King - Mia | Mike Golic - NYJ |
Mark Schlereth - Mia | Chris Carter - NYJ | Clark Judge - NYJ |
I'm a little surprised that so many people like the Dolphins' chances on Monday night. I always get a little uneasy when the Dolphins - as an underdog - are a popular pick.
I won't post my prediction yet for this game because I'm yet to even post my "keys to victory" post - which will go up on Monday morning. So I'll hold off until then before making my pick. On the year, I am 2-2 picking the Dolphins games, having been correct in each of their last two.
I need a lot of work, though, with my "weekly locks." I've gone 1-2 in each week now and need a solid 3-0 week to get back to .500. My locks are below.
My Week 5 Locks
Colts -3.5 over Titans - When I said in my season prediction post that I didn't think the Titans would be as good in 2009, I had no idea they would struggle like this. Vince Young time yet?
Panthers - 2.5 over Redskins - Washington is the worst 2-2 team I can recall. The Panthers face a must-win situation if they want to get back into the hunt.
Patriots -3.5 over Broncos - If Denver can win this game, I might just become a believer. But for now, I'm still not buying it.
Last Week: 1-2
Season: 3-6
