Take The Points In Steeltown and D.C.
Gambling Pays Off With C-Note; FFL Team Drops to 2-2
NFL - Week 5
$20 Pick Three
Buccaneers (-3) over N.Y. JETS
Coming off our first week in the money, the Bucs look like a safe pick despite giving three points to the desheveled Jets. If New York stays close the point totals will have to be under 20.
Redskins (+7) over BRONCOS
Seven points to the stingy 'Skins is quite alot, especially if you don't believe Denver is for real.
Steelers (+3) over CHARGERS
A win by San Diego would certainly give them elite status except that their secondary may be porous against Roethlisberger.
Last Week: 3-0; Season, 6-7. Lost, $40.00
(Home team in CAPS)
Fantasy Football - Week 5
Team Wonderbread (2-2-0) vs. Columbia Clowns (3-1-0)
This is the first of consecutive weeks without the big two of Terrell Owens and Randy Moss because of bye weeks for the Raiders and Eagles.
It's not the philosophy of Team Wonderbread to make personnel decisions on a weekly basis, but the pickup of Joe Jurvicius was made solely because he's seemingly the only receiving threat in Seattle's injury-wrecked corps. It's a roll of the dice, but worth it without Moss in the lineup.
Going into the season, the lineup at wide receiver was off the chart, but the running back position was predicated on some unknowns blossoming. RB Julius Jones is bound to take off and the Team is patient, but Cincy RB Rudi Johnson is looking like a second or third option in the Bengals high-flying offense. Injury-prone RB Stephen Davis gets the nod over the again-lowly Cardinals.
Lineup: QB Carson Palmer, WR Terrell Owens, WR Santana Moss, WR JOE JURIVECIUS, RB Julius Jones, RB STEPHEN DAVIS, TE L.J. Smith, K Mike Vanderjagt, DEF Carolina.
