Thursday Night Football Pick

Marshawn LynchMy Overall Record: 58-34

Seattle @ Arizona

The Seahawks are one of those teams that just know how the win ugly.

Their offense hasn’t been great. Russell Wilson has only had one 300-yard game this year, and its been a struggle for this team to score more than 24 points. But their defense has been tremendous, allowing more than 20 points only once all season while forcing multiple turnovers in every game.

The Arizona Cardinals have been a disappointment. Carson Palmer has not even come close to solving the team’s quarterback woes. He’s been just as bad as Kevin Kolb and John Skelton.

Seattle’s defense alone is good enough to win them this game.

Pick: Seattle 27, Arizona 13

Like the Seahawks in this one as 99% of people do..
Seahawks 24- Carfinals 13
Cardinals will hang in there for the 1st hald, but unless their Defense or Special Teams come-up with some Points, they will struggle to hang with Seahawks for the entire game.. Cardinals OL and Palmer have both been bad..
DL Calias Campbell is out also, hurtinfg ht Cardinals Pass-Rush against Wilson… Good Match up with the Cardinals young Secondary who does have playmakers on it (Adrian Wilson,Patrick Petersen, T Matthieu, Jaraud Powers) versus the Seahawk Recievers
Containing Seahawk QB R Wilson will be the story of the game for the Cards, if they can keep him in the pocket and cover well and come up with some turnovers then they have a chance..

I like this game better than the monday night game of 0-6 NYG vs 1-4 Vikings for a combined 1-10 record.

QB Josh Freeman will be playing for the Vikings..
I expect the Giants to start to play domme of their Younger Players as well
since WR Nicks will leave Via Free-Agnecy (Giants have Cruz & Randle) and don’t really need him any longer
DE J P Paul has been a dud all year and has never recovered from his back injury/condtition and has been non-factor since the 2011 Season.
DE Justin Tuck and M Kiawanuka have also disappointed ..
They have gotten more productions from older,Vets DT’s C Jenkins & M Patterson than their BIG 3 (JPP,Tuck & Kiawanuka)
Their Top 3 Tacklers on Defense are

Safety Ryan Mundy
CB Prince Amukarama
LB Spencer Paysinger

Sack Totals by their Big 3
JPP – 1 Sack
Tuck – .5 Sack
Kiawanuka 1.5 Sacks

How bout those Flyers… Do they suck this year or what…
It’s going to be a long, quite WInter down at the Arena this year between them and the 76ers .. Do Temple & Villanova have decent Teams this Year…
The Barnum & Bailey Circus and Mummer’s Show & Ice Show will be the most exciting events happening down at Broad & Pattison .. Good Grief Philly…
