The NFL is about to become a whole lot less controversial with a new agreement being reached between the NFL and the officials. Last week was a real wake up call for the NFL, with the controversy in the Monday Night Football game being the icing on the cake. The call of pass interference on Shields even though it was the wide receiver making the contact, and the call of roughing the passer on Walden even though he was already in the process of making the tackle (i.e in the air) at the time the ball was released, combined with the touchdown/no-touchdown call by the officials, showed just how bad the NFL can be when top-notch officials aren't on the job. Week III of the NFL was the craziest I can remember, with upsets all over the place, but this round should be a bit more predictable. I got 7/16 for my tips last week.
This week I can't actually be bothered to fully justify my picks, so I'll list games and put in bold who my pick is.
Cleveland at Baltimore
Carolina at Atlanta
New England at Buffalo
Minnesota at Detroit
Tennessee at Houston
San Diego at Kansas City
San Francisco at New York Jets
Seattle at St Louis
Miami at Arizona
Oakland at Denver
Cincinnati at Jacksonville
New Orleans at Green Bay
Washington at Tampa Bay
New York Giants at Philadelphia
Chicago at Dallas
Last weeks tipping results: 7-9
Results so far (started round 2): 16-16
