The Twins Week 10 Picks!

Yvonne’s Game of the Week – Philadelphia Eagles @ Washington Redskins

Nothing beats Monday night Football! And this match-up will be intriguing. This is a tale of two teams on two different trajectories; the Eagles going up, the Redskins going down. The rested Washington Redskins, despite McNabb’s call to “move on”, are still reeling from their loss to the Detroit Lions and Coach Shannahan’s questionable 4th Quarter QB change and baffling series of explanations thereafter.

The Eagles, on the other hand are ready to avenge their Week 4 loss; Mike Vick was knocked out of the game early, and his absence was immediately felt. Michael Vick looked incredible last week against the Indianapolis Colts, easily his best game of the season (if not, ever) thus far.

The Redskins will need the same kind of physical play from their defense as in week 4. They will also need to rely heavily on their run game, since their air game appears to be sputtering.

The Eagles will need to match the Redskins physicality. Their run defense in Week 4 was missing, but has since improved. And of course, Mike Vick will need to continue his fantastic play.

Overall, The Eagles just appear to be a team on the rise, the Redskins are not. Philadelphia Eagles, 24-10



Yvette’s Game of the Week - New England Patriots @ Pittsburgh Steelers
Sunday Night Football. Two 6-2 teams. Both are arguably the best of the AFC…
Well, I happen to believe that the New England Patriots aren’t as good as people tout them to be. And Sunday evening, the Pittsburgh Steelers will prove it.
With an Un-Patriot-like loss to the Cleveland Browns last week, I fully expect them to rebound.
However, facing the toughness of the Pittsburgh defense is not what you want, when you are trying to get over a tough loss.

Although the Patriots have their newest weapon, Peyton Hillis performing out of his mind, The Steelers will take away the run, leaving Tom Brady to will the Patriots to Victory. But the sack-happy Steelers will make Brady’s job very difficult. Some teams have had some success passing against the Steelers; I don’t expect the Patriots to be one of them.

Pittsburgh on the other hand has the tough Big Ben Roethlisberger at the helm and I not certain they have an answer for him.

I just believe that the Steelers are the better team. Pittsburgh Steelers 28-14
