Before we get to this week’s stellar NFL predictions, I would like you to sing along with me using that incredibly annoying theme song from the Coors commercial.
Oh, you know the one.
So hit it.
“I … love … picking football games,
Dodging getting mange
Never picking ‘Fins
And WINS!
I … love … quarterbacks named Mike Vick
Eating till I’m sick
What you staring at?
I’m not fat!
I … love … using my crystal ball
Shopping at the mall
“Legends of the Fall”
Brad Pitt’s kind of tall
My mom wears a shawl,
I sing like Lou Rawls,
Don’t sail in no squall,
Please accept this call,
Boy, you have some gall,
What was I talking about?
Oh yes, WINS!”
And here now, the picks.
Philadelphia (3-0) at BEARS (1-2)
Noon, WFLD-Ch. 32,
Things you should know: Jonathan Quinn’s biggest hurdle is convincing his offense that he’s as cool as Rex. Good luck; as if. The Bears played OK against Detroit, very well against Green Bay, pretty good against Minnesota. But can Chicago overcome the downer of losing their starting QB? Can the Bears’ running game sustain the offense? Can David Terrell (0 TDs) out-Terrell Terrell Owens (5 TDs)? Can the Eagles take pity on the Bears and spot them 14 points and play with only nine men on the field? Philly is one of the best teams in the NFL. Chicago is … the biggest city in Illinois.
The line: Eagles by 9 Over/under: 40 Final shake: Eagles. And let’s pray for fog.
