Preacher’s Picks week 9

Hope you enjoyed the bye week. I did. No Buccaneer loss—has to go down as best week of the season thus far. Let’s just hope that when we look back at the season we can say that it was the turning point, eh?

Going orange! Nothing like a little Bucco Bruce to rally the troops! Lee Roy Selmon going into the ring of honor, members of the 1979 “worst to first” team on hand, and the first game ever in our throw-backs—this is smelling like the perfect recipe for a Buccaneer surprise. Hey, we’ve got a new kicker, too. Maybe we’ll actually put 3 on the board Sunday. A league low two field goals so far. TWO!

Rumor has it that some of the other Buccaneer alumni have been disappointed that Selmon is going into the ring of honor alone. Let’s see: Who is the lone Buccaneer in the Hall of Fame? Um… I’ll give you sixty-three guesses.

Here’s a question: If the Bucs win Sunday, do they dress in creamsicle the rest of the season?

Time to get back into action. Here are the sure-fire locks for week nine: Bucco Bruce lives! Bucs over Packers; Ravens over Bengals; Patriots over Dolphins; Falcons over ‘Skins (buh bye J.Z.); Bears over Cards; Colts over Texas; Jags over Chiefs; Saints over Panthers; Seahawks over Lions; 49ers over Titans; Giants over Chargers; Eagles over Cowboys (and more Williams impressions of T.O. to come); Steelers over Broncos. Bye: Bills, Browns; Vikings, Jets, Raiders and Rams.

Good pickes, but I am going with Chargers over Giants. Otherwise I am with you all the way.
