go whiners!

go whiners!

These aren't your uncle's finesse Niners from the 80s. Today's Niners might have the best front seven of all NFL defenses.

Thank God I didn't bet on these. Not one of my pics won?!?!

Indy
Philly
San Diego
SF

Not bad...3 out of 4.  

This week:

New Orleans @ Seattle --> SEAHAWKS (too much D for Brees. Hawks will be fired up at home)
Indy @ New England --> Patriots (tough one to call. Who cares anyway  )
San Fran @ Carolina --> Niners (another tough one)
San Diego @ Denver --> Denver (SD doesn't stand a chance)

Let's see if I do better this week:

Seattle
NE
Carolina
Denver

Apparently I think all the home teams will win, but if I had to pick a close game, it would be SF and Carolina

Johnny Football is going pro, but how good will he become in the NFL? (NFL means not for long Johnny if you take a lot of hits)

Actually, see Tony Romo. That's as good as he'll get.

I think all of the games are close and really too close to call.  Like my wife said, her hopes are on the Niner's but not her money.  I'm going to be a contrarian and here are my picks, ignoring the spread:

New Orleans - Sean Payton is just a good enough coach to pull this one off.
Indy - Luck and Co are really going to be believing in themselves after last week's game.
SF - Not voting with my head since Kap played here in Reno for 4 years and I'm a fan.
San Diego - No logical explanation for this pick.

Seahawks!

Seahawks!

Chip Kelley's signaling system consisting of flash cards would be one way to overcome the noise in Seattle.

But ya also need a lot of good players.

Chip Kelley's signaling system consisting of flash cards would be one way to overcome the noise in Seattle.

How does that change the actual play call by the QB?

Tommy and the boys crushed the Colts, 6 rushing touchdowns.

Ugh... so sick of Brady and co.
