The Preacher is on the road this week, too. Not in London with the Bucs, but gathered with family to officiate my niece’s wedding. Happy times! So happy, in fact, that I’ve forgotten all about the drumming I took in my picks last week. Really. I’ve forgotten. Gone. Never to be mentioned again. Understand? Never. When is my bye week?
The Bucs and the Patriots in jolly ole England. Sit down and have a few pints, Bucs fans. We’ll need ‘em. Everyone is talking about whether Jim Zorn is on the hotseat in Washington. When is the Redskins’ bye week? I suspect that there may develop an all-out track meet to fire some coaches in the next few weeks to be first in line to talk to Cowher-Shanahan-Holmgren-Gruden. You have to wonder if being in London this week will turn the pressure up a bit on the Glazer family to prove their love and affection for the Bucs rivals that for their successful franchise there. Time will tell. When is our bye week? Oh… NEXT WEEK.
Let’s get to the picks. Watch ‘em and week (like I was weeping last week): Bears over Bengals; Packers over Browns; Steelers over Vikings; Texans over Niners; Chargers over Chiefs; Colts over Rams; Bucs over Patriots (I will not pick against them, Paul Stewart!); Panthers over Bills; Jets over Raiders; Saints over Dolphins; Cowboys over Falcons; Giants over Cards; Eagles over Redskins. Bye: Ravens, Broncos, Lions, Jags, Seahawks and Titans.

I have four wrong so far. We both picked the Eagles, so tonight’s contest doesn’t matter in head-to-head.
