Well we have finally reached the halfway point of the NFL Regular Season. A lot of surprises to say the least. I think over half the playoff teams from last season are likely to miss the playoffs this season. One team comes to mind the New England Patriots. They are under .500 (2-5) for the first time in 2 decades (2000). Could it be the bad breaks, or something in Foxboro that we don’t know about. Patriots fans get ready to embrace the Rebuilding word. There loss to the Buffalo Bills proves its not there year. How about the San Francisco 49ers these days? Super Bowl contender or major disappointment? Now Jimmy Garapolo could be lost for the season (6 weeks with ankle injury). The NFC west division is already flawed as it is. Poor Matthew Stafford he can’t catch a break at all. Now he may have to miss a game due to Covid. I think the Lions need to hit the reset button after this season, and start over. Now onto my picks as I went 8-6 last week. So for the 2020 season I’m 76-42-1. Now for the week 9 picks:

Thursday night

Packers over 49ers

Early Sunday

Falcons over Broncos

Seahawks over Bills

Ravens over Colts

Bears over Titans

Giants over Washington

Texans over Jaguars

Chiefs over Panthers

Vikings over Lions

late Sunday

Raiders over Chargers

Dolphins over Cardinals

Steelers over Cowboys

Sunday night

Saints over Buccaneers

Monday night

Patriots over Jets

now my picks are on the board and look for my mid season nfl awards next week
