CHILDREN OF THE POD NOSE PICKS: WEEK 3

Children of the Pod's resident NFL betting "experts" give you some of their picks for the week and explain why.  They are by NO means professional handicappers so you can't say we didn't warn you...

Bears (-2) at Seahawks
PAUL SAYS WHY: Take Hassel"I-broke-my"back away from this team they have no chance. Watching this offense with out him is like seeing your Grandfather slam a Viagra pill with his gin and tonic and than accidently getting a boner while he is cutting the turkey before Thanksgiving. Just f*cking awkward man. Why haven’t they gotten a legitimate back up quarterback?

49ers at Vikes (-7)
CHIP SAYS WHY:  Do you guys remember when Mike Singletary dropped his pants at halftime of the Seahawks game last season? It was his first game as a head coach, and he wasn't even full time yet!  The man who looked as though he was going to be a running joke for bloggers everywhere has created a winning mentality once again in San Fransisco.  It's a team based on toughness, looks like he really has shown them how to grow some balls.  (see what I did there?)

Steelers (-4) at Bengals
PAUL SAYS WHY: Bottom line the Steelers aren't losing to the "Who Deys."  Oh and did you see Hard Knocks? If you are too poor to afford the Sunday Package or HBO let me enlighten you, yes the Bengals are bad. So they beat Green Bay - big f'in big deal. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut.


Giants (-6.5) at Bucs
CHIP SAYS WHY: The Bucs D looks bad.  Real bad.  They have talent out there, but something isn't working.  Raheem The Dream has figured out a way to have Byron Leftwich be a fairly productive quarterback, but the defense keeps giving up 30+ points per game.  The Giants offense looks great right now with Eli and the Mannings - easy TD win for the G-Men.

Dolphins at Chargers (-6)
PAUL SAYS WHY:  I will bet against Norv Turner every time. I don’t care what the circumstances are. The guy just finds a way to lose time and time again. If Norv Turner was going against two quadriplegics in the Special Olympic high jump I would put my life savings that Norvy would win the bronze. He has to be the most over rated coach in the National Football League. I wouldn’t trust this guy to wipe Chip’s ass, and Chip doesn’t wipe his ass.



Colts at Cardinals (-2.5)
CHIP SAYS WHY: My pick of last week was absolutely washed down the tube when Kurt Warner decided he was going to beat me up and take all of my lunch money.  Seriously, the same guy who was riding around training camp on a segway decided to check out of the nursing home and come play football.  Colts played their asses off on in the heat of Miami on Monday, then travel to Arizona.  Love the Cards at home.

Panthers at Cowboys (-8.5)
PAUL SAYS WHY: How does Tony Romo get laid? He is that douche bag you see at the bar with the hot girl, and you can’t help but think there has to be something wrong with her. There is a reason he went Eastern Illinois. There is a reason he did not get drafted, and there is a reason he almost got cut until Quincy Jones was caught smoking a splif.

 This guy is not good and he never will be good. I don’t get the hype. Right now I don’t know who I would take Campbell or Romo. Somehow Tony Romo has charmed America. His smile and goofiness glamoured us all into forgetting that botched hold in the playoffs. Surprised Norv Turner didn’t draft him.
