Week Five of NFL Season is about to kick off. Here's a preview of every game with analysis and a pick of the winner.

EARLY GAMES

MIAMI AT HOUSTON 1:00 PM EST
Miami is a bad team this season. Houston has dropped their last two games, one to The Colts and one to The Falcons, but I expect Houston to get back on track to win the game this week, Houston is better than Miami.
HOUSTON OVER MIAMI

HOUSTON DEFEATS MIAMI 22-18

JACKSONVILLE AT KANSAS CITY 1:00 PM EST
Jacksonville's running combo of Fred Taylor and Maurice Jones-Drew will burn rubber on the ground for Jacksonville. Kansas City came back from a 10 point defecit to beat The Minnesota Vikings last week. If Jacksonville can stop Larry Johnson, they will win this game, since Kansas City has no passing game.
JACKSONVILLE OVER KANSAS CITY

JACKSONVILLE DEFEATS KANSAS CITY 17-7

CLEVELAND AT NEW ENGLAND 1:00 PM EST
New England will win this game. Cleveland got a suprise victory over the Ravens last week. Expect a lot of running from Laurence Maroney and Passing from Tom Brady to Randy Moss. Oh Yeah, and to make it worse, Rodney Harrison makes his return to The Patriots in this game.
NEW ENGLAND OVER CLEVELAND

NEW ENGLAND DEFEATS CCLEVELAND 34-17

CAROLINA AT NEW ORLEANS 1:00 PM EST
David Carr will start for the Panthers for the second consecutive week. New Orleans is winless this season, while The Panthers are 2-2. New Orleans has no defense, and that's by far the biggest reason why the Saints are winless this season. Carolina wins this game, pushing The Saints to 0-5.
CAROLINA OVER NEW ORLEANS

CAROLINA DEFEATS NEW ORLEANS 16-13

NEW YORK JETS AT NEW YORK GIANTS 1:00 PM EST
The Battle Of New York. The New York Giants are coming off a record setting defensive performance against The Philladelphia Eagles last Sunday Night. If The Giants can bring as much pressure this week as they brought last week, Chad Pennington and Thomas Jones won't be able to get anything going, meaning the Giants win the game.
NEW YORK GIANTS OVER NEW YORK JETS

NEW YORK GIANTS DEFEAT NEW YORK JETS 35-24

SEATTLE AT PITTSBURGH 1:00 PM EST
This is a rematch of Super Bowl XL. Both of these teams are 3-1 on the season. Ben Rothelisberger has been on fire for The Steelers, and their defense has played well, although Troy Polamalu may not play for The Steelers this week. I'm gonna go with Pittsburgh. They have played well on offense and defense, and they will win the game.
PITTSBURGH OVER SEATTLE.

PITTSBURGH DEFEATS SEATTLE 21-0

ARIZONA AT ST LOUIS 1:00 PM EST
This is always a big matchup because of the history of these two teams. The Cardinals moved to St. Louis in 1960 after spending the previous 62 years in Chicago as the Chicago Cardinals. The Cardinals used to call St. Louis Home. Now The Cardinals call Arizona home. When you add in the "revolving door" Quarterback Carousel going on in both Arizona and St Louis, with Kurt Warner,the Quarterback of The Rams when they won Super Bowl XXXIV, starting the last two games for the Arizona Cardinals, and that St. Louis is benching Marc Bulger for Gus Frerrote, this will be a very good game. I'm gonna go with Arizona to win this game. The Rams have just totally underwhelmed this season, and the injury bug is the biggest reason why.
ARIZONA OVER ST. LOUIS

ARIZONA DEFEATS ST LOUIS 34-31

DETROIT AT WASHINGTON 1:00 PM EST
The Detroit Lions scored an NFL record 34 points in the fourth quarter to beat Chicago and spoil Brian Griese's debut as Bears Quarterback. Detroit will beat Washington in this game. Expect a lot of catches from Calvin Johnson in this game.
DETROIT OVER WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON DEFEATS DETROIT 34-3

LATE GAMES

TAMPA BAY AT INDIANAPOLIS 4:05 PM EST
Cato June will get a loud welcome back to Indianpolis by the home crowd. Marvin Harrison, and Joseph Addai may both not play in this game. Indianapolis has a lot of depth at running back and Wide Receiver, and they showed it last week aganst Denver. Indianapolis wins this game.
INDY OVER TAMPA BAY

INDY DEFEATS TAMPA BAY 33-14

SAN DIEGO AT DENVER 4:05 PM EST
What a sad story the San Diego Chargers have become. They have become muttered into obsuriry and have once again become one of the worst teams in the league. LaDanian Tomlinson finally rushed for 100 yards last week against Kansas City, but it wasn't enough as Kansas City beat San Diego 17-10. Denver will beat San Diego this week. Travis Henry, who is the NFL's leading rusher this season, will play this week but only because he is suing the NFL to prevent the result of his positive drug test from prevventing him from playing. Denver Beats San Diego in this game.
DENVER OVER SAN DIEGO

SAN DIEGO DEFEATS DENVER 41-3

BALTIMORE AT SAN FRANCISCO 4:05 PM EST
Alex Smith may not play in this game. This will be a good running attack on the ground for both teams, Willis McGahee for the Ravens and Frank Gore for the 49ers. Baltimore will come back with a vengance defesnively, and the Ravens will win this game.
BALTIMORE OVER SAN FRANCISCO

BALTIMORE DEFEATS SAN FRANCISCO 9-7

LATER GAMES

SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL

CHICAGO AT GREEN BAY 8:15 PM EST (THE GAME OF THE WEEK)
One week after becoming The NFL's All time leader in Touchdown Passes and Pass Attempts, Brett Favre leads the undefeated Packers back home to Lambeau Field to take on the struggling Chicago Bears. Both of these always play each other hard becuse this is the biggest rivalry in the NFL. I'm gonna go with Green Bay because they are at home, but Chicago has a shot to win this game if their defense steps up and their offense starts to do better.
GREEN BAY OVER CHICAGO

MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
COWBOYS AT BILLS 8:30 PM EST
This is the first Monday Night Football Appearance for the Bills since their Super Bowl days of the 1990s. Marshawn Lynch has ran for a lot of yards his last couple of games, but I expect that streak to end against The Cowboys. Whoever starts for The Bills, J.P. Losman or Trent Edwards, will have a tough time staying on their feet as Dallas will bring pressure early and often.
DALLAS OVER BUFFALO

Enjoy Your Sunday and Watch the games! If The Cubs win tonight, I may skip Football and watch The Cubs-Diamonbacks Game Five on TBS. But before we talk about Game Five, The Cubs need to win game four just to avoid the sweep.
