The "Quit Your Whining AG" eddition of W.T.L.F!........and picks.

I knew you couldn't stay away.
Well took a 10 hour road-trip before coming into work tonight, so I cannot be held responsible for this column....or it's spelling.

Without any ado, here is What To Look For week 6!....and picks.

Buffalo at Detroit
Look for McGahee to hit the endzone...bringing his year TD total to two.
Look for one of many lame games this week, and look for Kevin Jones to continue to struggle.
This game really just stinks...neither of these teams is doing anything, or going anywhere. It will be a close one, but look for the running game to be the difference.
BUF

Carolina at Baltimore
Look for Steve Smith to reclaim his #1 WR on the team spot with 100 and a score.
Look for Jamal Lewis to lose some carries to Musa Smith....this might be the poor man's Jones-Drew.
Denver exposed an undefeated Ravens team that had really just not played anyone. Carolina (like Denver) has a solid defense. No big fantasy number in this game except for Smith.
CAR

Cincinnati at Tampa Bay
Look for Chad Johnson to FINALLY be the star of his team.
Look for Gradkowski to have another solid day...not worth picking up, but solid.
Cincinnati got spizanked by New England, and had an extra week to think about it....Tampa Bay is about to have some serious points dropped on them, but I think they will keep it closeish.
CIN

Houston at Dallas
Look for Houston to continue to look stupid for passing on Bush without any trace of a running game.
Look for TO to be the #1 receiver on his team...whining helps.
Texas against Texas....too bad they both can't lose. The loss to the Eagles has got to have the 'Boys fired up to beat up the AAA Texans. Not even Bledsoe is going to be able to lose this one.
DAL

N.Y. Giants at Atlanta
Look for Manning to have a great game. He has too many weapons around him to not be able to get it done against the Falcon's secondary.
Look for Vick to get injured. I'm calling it right here.
I don't like this game. I'm not attracted to either of these teams. I think they are both 2nd teir teams that get air-time because of the names of their QBs.
NYG

Philadelphia at New Orleans
Look for McNabb to Baskett again...he will be the #1 WR on the team.
Look for Colston to bounce back and Bush to hit paydirt again.
I do like this game. We have two feel good stories. You have McNabb who has overcome injuries, and TO and has brought his team to be a serious contender. Then you have the Saints...are they really 4-1? Good story...but this good story isn't going to have a happy ending.
NO

Seattle at St. Louis
Look for the Seahawks passing game to finally start producing....can we get some DJax and Branch love???
Look for a shootout...but look for Jackson to be held out of the endzone AGAIN!
These two teams are going to air it out all day long. Huge game for all WRs...except Burleson and Curtis. If you have any players in this game you better think twice before benching them.
SEA

Tennessee at Washington
Look for VY to out-produce Brunell.....believe it or not.
Look for Portis to be a work-horse and the only O for the 'Skins.
Washington got flat-out embarrassed last week against the Giants, while the Titans actually kept things scary for the Colts. I think VY is either going to get progressively better, or get killed...we shall see.
WAS

Kansas City at Pittsburgh
Look for just about nothing from Huard, and a 2 TD day for LJ....if he's healthy.
Look for Roethlisberger to get pulled.
Big Ben just isn't the same....he's done...at least for this year, and so are the Steelers. Kansas City has a chance to actually keep things close in the AFCW with a win. IF they can ride LJ they win...they lose if Haurd has to win it for them.
KC

Miami at N.Y. Jets
Look for Harrington to open things up...thus Ronnie Brown will look better.
Look for Washington to be flying off the waiver-wire next week....you heard me.
The Jets 0-41 loss last week really opened up some eyes. I admit it, I was on the Pennington bandwagon...71 yards and 3 INTS later, I don't know what I was thinking. Maybe it was just a bad day.....speaking of bad days, when Harrington is your starting QB you're bound to have a bad day.
NYJ

San Diego at San Francisco
Look for the 2nd biggest spanking of the week...behind a 2+ TDer from LT2.
Look for NO fantasy options from the Niners this week.
LT2 ALERT!!!! Rushing, receiving, passing......kicking.....Tomlinson is going to be all over the place. He owes it to us who have suffered over the past few weeks for mediocrity. Again, the 49ers are moving in the right direction, but they are no where near where they need to be.
SD

Oakland at Denver
Look for the Raiders to get shut out of the endzone.
Look for Plummer to continue to keep these games close.
Hey...guess what? The Raiders are the worst team in football. Denver is a loss to STL away from being 4-0. Big wins against BAL, and more importantly NE makes me think the Brocos team is the real deal. Denver rolls.
DEN

Chicago at Arizona
Look for the biggest slamming of the week....start your Bears!
Look for me in the stands....taking in my first NFL game....GO BEARS!!!
Here it is folks....my first live NFL game....MLB? been there.....NBA? done that.....NHL? yes even them, but never the NFL.....won't be a good game, but at least I'll see my team. If you have any ability to pity someone, you need to direct that pitty to a Mr. Matt Leinart....he derserves it.
CHI

Alright.....that's it....now it's go time.
Have a great weekend.
On a side-note, I will be in Phoenix over the weekend, so FFN will not get updated because......I won't be with my computer.....I will be away.....if I can get a "fill in" for when I'm gone, I will.

AG? Can you deliver?
