stop counting.
Going 3-1 in our four differences, I’ve expanded my lead in the head-to-head competition with MDS to 11 games. With 10 weeks left.
He will need to pick up more than one game a week to catch up with me. This week, the most he’ll capture is just one game.
Last week, I was 11-4. MDS 9-6 is gone. For this year, I’m at 77-46-1. MDS is 66-56-1.
Scroll to all selections.
Eagles (-14) in Texas
take MDSThursday night’s games haven’t been particularly entertaining this season, and I don’t expect much of a difference this week, as the Eagles are likely to jump into a big lead early on and sprint towards a big win.
MDS selection: Eagles 28, Texas 10.
Take Florio: The Eagles did not start the season 8-0. Until this season.
fluoro choice: Eagles 34, Texas 17.
Number of chargers (-3) in the Falcons
take MDS: The Hawks were better than expected and the chargers were worse than expected, but Justin Herbert You have to beat the game Marcus Mariota Where chargers improve to 5-3.
MDS selection: Chargers 24, Falcons 17.
Take Florio: The Shippers have had two weeks to prepare for the game they need to win, if they hope to continue to be a factor in the post-season conversation.
fluoro choice: Chargers 27 Falcons 20.
Dolphins (-5) in Beers
take MDS: A bears defense that he suddenly didn’t have Robert Quinn or Ruchuan Smith You will struggle with the big game of dolphins.
MDS selection: dolphins 30, bears 20.
Take Florio: The Dolphins were the only team that defeated the 1985 Bears. Thirty-seven years later, the Dolphins are simply the latest to defeat the 2022 Bears.
fluoro choice: dolphins 31, bears 24.
Panthers (+7) in the Bengals
take MDS: Give the Panthers coach Steve Wilkes a quarterback PJ Walker to compete at a time when many thought the Panthers were quitting the season. But this Carolina roster doesn’t have enough talent to beat the Bengals who will be too excited to play a big game after Monday night’s ugly performance.
MDS selection: Bengals 24, Panthers 21.
Take Florio: The Bengals at a crossroads. They’ve got a team that may still be reeling from a dwindling result in Atlanta.
fluoro choice: Bengals 27, Panthers 17.
Packers (-3.5) at Lions
take MDS: Aaron Rodgers They only need one win to turn things around, he says. They will get it on Sunday.
MDS selection: Packers 34, Lions 27.
Take Florio: Now or Never for Aaron Rodgers and Co.
fluoro choice: Packers 38, Lions 27.
Ponies (+5.5) in the Patriots
take MDSThe Colts fixed the full-back position last week and fired the offensive coordinator this week. I think we’ll see in New England that the Colts’ problems go much deeper than that.
MDS selection: Patriots 20, Colts 10.
Take Florio: There will be no raising the Indiana flag after this.
fluoro choice: Patriots 27, Colts 13.
Billing (-12.5) in Jets
take MDS: I don’t see any possibility Zach Wilson Keep the Jets competitive with Josh Allen.
MDS selection: Bills 34, Planes 17.
Take Florio: Bills should dominate which teams should dominate.
fluoro choice: bills 31, planes 14.
Vikings (-3.5) in leaders
take MDS: Leaders have played better with Taylor Hynek what they did to it Carson Wentz. But they won’t play well enough to play the Vikings who are beginning to emerge as a legitimate contender to make it to the Super Bowl.
MDS selection: Vikings 28, Commanders 21.
Take Florio: Until the Vikings fail to find a way to win a match against an inferior opponent of late, I’ll assume they won’t.
fluoro choice: Vikings 27, Commanders 21.
Raiders (-1.5) in Jaguars
take MDSRaiders coach Josh McDaniels has apologized for his team’s poor play last week. He’ll have more apologies to offer this week.
MDS selection: Jaguar 21, Raiders 20.
Take Florio: If the Raiders lose this, Josh McDaniels could be orchestrating a New England crime by Christmas.
fluoro choice: Raiders 24, Jaguars 17.
Seahawks (+2) at Cardinals
take MDS: I believe in it Jeno Smith, even if he had enough of the skeptics the cardinals favored in this game. I’d say Seattle gets off the road turbulence and stays No. 1 in the NFC West.
MDS selection: Seahawks 24, Cardinals 20.
Take Florio: Seahawks is still underestimated. Cardinals continue to be overestimated.
fluoro choice: Seahawks 27, Cardinals 20.
Rams (+3) in Pirates
take MDS: In January, we saw these two teams play a classic playoff. In November, neither looks like a playoff team. But I think the Bucs are a little closer to the transformation.
MDS selection: pirates 20, rams 14.
Take Florio: The Bucs need to find a way. It won’t be easy, but the Rams are not the team they were in 2021.
fluoro choice: pirates 24, rams 23.
Titans (+12.5) in Chiefs
take MDSTwo teams meet 5-2 in a match that has major implications for the Asian qualifiers and could decide which of them would be at home if they meet again in January. I just can’t see Attack of the Titans score enough to keep up Patrick Mahomes & Co.
MDS selection: Chiefs 28, Titans 17.
Take Florio: How can a 5-2 team be under 12.5 points against another 5-2 team?
fluoro choice: Bosses 30, Titans 21.
Crows (-2.5) in Saints
take MDS: The Saints made a statement with their blast of Raiders last week, and I think they’ll be in competition with the Ravens. But in the end I think the Ravens’ massive Special Teams advantage will make all the difference in this game.
MDS selection: Crows 26, Saints 20.
Take Florio: The Ravens are taking full advantage of the 11 days between matches to find a way to continue pushing for a potential division title.
fluoro choice: Crows 27, Saints 17.
