Saints are practically undefeated at home in the last few seasons (its something ridiculous like 33-5 or something) and 49ers are in shambles right now, I think Saints are a good pick.

I like all those picks except the Bucs/Falcons one. Bucs passing defense is last in the league, Falcons passing offense is in top 10 (granted that stat is heavily buoyed by their one curb stomping of the season, which happened to be the Bucs to the tune of 56 to 14, and those 14 Bucs points were garbage points at the end after Falcons pulled all their starters.). I dont think its gonna be a blowout but the Falcons got the Bucs figured out the first time, and the Bucs are still playing quarterback musical chairs.

I picked the Lions over Dolphins straight up. Dolphins are showing themselves to be a legit playoff team but I think Lions take it at home, the Dolphins are overdue for a reality check. Lions D is #1 in the league, though Miami isnt too far behind at #3. Reggie Bush and Calvin Johnson are coming back today after missing last few games and Lamar Miller is questionable for the Dolphins. It will be close game, but Lions will cover the spread.

As far as the Chiefs game, I'm a bit wary of that one. If it was still EJ Manuel, Chiefs pick would be a no brainer but Kyle Orton is playing pretty impressively in last 2 games and the game is in Buffalo. I think the defense/offense matchups favor Chiefs. They'll be running the ball a lot and shutting down Orton. I got Chiefs as my pick. Oh and Sammy Watkins messed up his groin 4 days ago so he is questionable for today's game.

3-1 (and the 1 being questionable) since 2011. All but 1 of those in NO. Stats don't lie. It's ok, you can admit you jumped the gun and were wrong.
