Preacher’s Picks Week 13


Out with the new and in with the old?  Well sort of—Mike Holmgren is reportedly interested in returning to Seattle as President and General Manager now that the job(s) are open.  Anything would be better than coaching in Buffalo, eh?  Quick!  Get linked to a job OTHER than the Bills.  Besides, that job is all wrapped up for Marv Levy to return.

Where do you suppose Mike Shanahan ends up?  Sources say he had a series of great meetings with Bills execs.  Here’s a thought: those reports came from the way Shanahan looked at the airport leaving town.  You’d be happy, too.  Dancing, maybe.

Hey!  How about Charlie Weis?  Now there’s a candidate.

The Saints and the Colts remain perfect on the year.  Either team have a chance to run the table, you ask.  No.  There will be a loss in both teams’ tallies before it’s over, but I tell you that both look like they have Super aspirations.  Do you think a team that wins in a bury-them style (Saints) or a team that finds-a-way-to-win (Colt) has an advantage?

On the Buc front, you have to love how people are saying “Jake Delhomme is out” like the Bucs are better off facing Matt Moore.  Truth be told, the Bucs secondary is sad.  They watched a weekend to pad the INT stats go down in flames.  Oh well. 

Let me give you the edge on this weekend’s slate.  Here goes: Jets over Bills (this is the Bills we’re talking about); Eagles over Falcons; Bucs over Panthers; Bears over Rams, Patriots over Dolphins; Bengals over Lions; Colts over Titans (reality check for Vince); Jags over Texans; Broncos over Chiefs; Steelers over Raiders (best cure for Ben’s headache… the Raiders); Saints over Skins; Chargers over Browns; Cowboys over Giants; 49ers over Seahawks; Vikings over Cards; Packers over Ravens.  There you have it.

About Darin:

Darin Shaw has served as the Senior Pastor at Christ's Church of Amherst, N.H., since January 2000. He's written a few blurbs, led a few projects and produced a few cool things over the years. The very best of what he's produced are four wonderful girls - Amanda, Katie, Becky and Emily - he managed to pull that off along with his lovely wife Shari. Together they all live in a red house surrounded by lots of trees in the same community with lots of really great people. He is known to hang out on Sunday mornings with people of a much higher caliber than he, and counts that among life's greatest privileges. Then, on Sunday afternoons, Darin and his family settle in for the full slate of NFL games, shouting loudest when the Buccaneers take the field.

Key Stats: 6-2, 240 ... 16-year veteran of Pastoral Ministry out of Florida Bible College and Southwestern Bible College and Theological Seminary ... Boasts of being able to count on one hand the number of Buccaneers games he has missed (either having been there in person, watched on television, or listened to the radio) since they entered the NFL in 1976. ... Sports a lifetime 74 percent accuracy in NFL prognostication ... Certifiable Jesus freak; loving husband; devoted father; zealous blogger.
