win; can only be #3 or #4

AZ is lock'd in and I would rest players, making this a good opportunity for NE to get the win convincingly. There's also a west coast & dome team angle which favors NE....

notes:
a TRO was granted for the susp'd players making my picks for MIN @DET and ATL @NO moot

should've picked MIA & under, but hindsight is 20-20

ARI has me baffled past wks

PHI as a team is playing much better since QB McNabb came back from benching

STL I guess they're an under team, but are up and down as far as effort

SEA won on stats except for TO's (vs NE)
same w/DAL @PIT, DAL won stat's (except for starting field position)
ATL has better passing stats & 3rd down, but still lost game due to TO's & D allowing NO run game

hmmm should've noticed NFC South teams are winning at home

MIA has me clueless for past 2 weeks

Turkey day really was my undoing, SNF & MNF saved me...

w/DET no turkey could save them, especially w/TEN losing prior wk to NYJ

and w/PHI QB McNabb (as well as team) playing exceptional since controversial yanking of QB at start of 2nd half last wk, I should have seen this coming...
