And now to my picks for NFL Week 9. I Will Not pick the JETS over BUFFALO at BUFFALO. No matter how much I'd like to, since I am a JETS fan. I'll also take the BILLS to cover the - 5.5 point spread in this one. I also Will Not pick the Chiefs over the TAMPA BAY BUCS even at Home, although this game could be the upset of the week. However, I am picking the EAGLES over the Seahawks as my BONUS-LOCK instead, 26 - 17, covering the - 6.5 points as well .

In my 50 - 50 games I'll take the DENVER over the Dolphins 23 - 17, also covering the -3.5 points, and MINNESOTA over the Texans 24 - 20. My BONUS 50-50 is the COLTS over the Patriots 27-20. This is a Must win for the COLTS and I never pick against them at HOME. In my (pretend you don't read these next, imaginary) Fake - Out picks, l like the RAMS over the Cardinals 30 - 26, the RAIDERS over the Falcons 20 - 19, and I would not even be surprised if the BROWNS beat the Ravens this time.

And now since some people are gonna tell ya, Matt Forte is gonna hit pay 'DIRT' this sunday. My LOCK N' LOAD for NFL Week 9 is the

CHICAGO BEARS over the Detroit Lions 30 - 16
