Chuck & Risse’s NFL Week 4 Scores

September 29th, 2008 . by Risse aka TownBiz

Another NFL Sunday has come and gone. Let’s see if our resident experts know what they are talking about when it comes to gridiron action:

Carolina-24 vs Atlanta-9

Chuck: Yeah this one is was pretty easy to call, although Atlanta may be able to pop up and shock some teams…. they still aren’t ready to battle with established veteran squads. Win.

Risse: No big surprises in this one. Well, maybe seeing Muhsin Muhammad (Moose!) get 8 receptions, 147 yards with a TD this week. (Win)

Tennessee-30 vs Minnesota-17

Chuck: Tennessee’s defense is too stubborn for just about anybody right now. I said they would put 8 in the box and stop purple jesus and thats exactly what they did. If you have succcess against this team I think it will be by air… not by ground. win

Risse: Let me find out that the Titans are 4-0. I know my peeps in Cashville are feeling themselves. Albert Haynesworth looked like a straight bruiser against Peterson and the Vikings. If the Titans go deep in the playoffs, please mark my words: Vince Young will no longer be a Titan by the end of next season. (Win)

Jacksonville-30 vs Houston-27 (OT)

Chuck: Aahahaha….. I knew Houston would lose… Jacksonville is playing with a little bit of urgency, but the main reason they were going to win is because the Texans suck. Always have and always will. win

Risse: Even though I picked the Jags, my Texans almost did it. But when you are going up against the Jags at home, featuring Josh Scobee’s cannon-like leg, almost doesn’t make the cut. Just ask the Colts. There were definite rays of light in this loss, though, as Schaub momentarily muted the haters by passing for 307 yards. (Win)

Denver-19 vs Kansas City-33

Chuck: Just wow… This game was like the final fight between Craig and Deebo at the end of Friday. Kansas city got sick of being picked on and hit Denver in the head with a brick. Game over. The Chiefs may now continue their regularly scheduled program of losing… loss

Risse: “That’s why they play the games. You play to win the game.” Who would suspect that same statement would again hold true for a Herm Edwards team? Larry Johnson got the workload he requested and everyone who has tuned into the NFL this season was stunned that the Broncos fell to the Chiefs?!?! All I could think afterwards, though, was that I should have listened to my Hanky on Thursday when he confidentally called the Broncos falling against the Chiefs this week. (Loss)

New Orleans-31 vs San Francisco-17

Chuck: J.T. O’Sullivan just wanted to take the time out to remind the world that he’s J.T. O’FUCKING SULLIVAN. We all got a little ahead of ourselves and forgot this guy is a career backup player. He threw 2 or 3 crucial interceptions in the endzone. Had he not done that, the niners would have won…. so Im a little optimistic for their chances. (loss)

Risse: I have been accused of gaining pleasure from other’s people’s pain so it should be no surprise I relished the squeals of my coworkers as JT O’Sullivan managed another 49ers loss, stamping another fantasy victory for the TownBiz franchise. Nice. (Win)

New York-56 (NYJ) vs Arizona-35

Chuck: See… this is vintage Brett Favre… just when he’s down and out, the old man will pop up looking like he did 10 years ago. I really hope Anquan Boldin is okay though, I haven’t seen someone get knocked out like that since Tarver vs. Jones pt. 2. (loss)

Risse: Who in the hell left the gate open? How does Brett Favre throw a career-high six TDs–three of them to Lauverneus Coles. Stop it! Update: Reports indicate that Anquan Boldin is okay after a scary helmut-to-helmut crash with under two minutes left. (Loss)

Cincinnati-12 vs Cleveland-20

Chuck: I dubbed this one “The Stupor Bowl”… each team was just begging the other to win….finally Cleveland managed to put something together. Poor Chad… (loss)

Risse: Anyone who knows me, knows I love me some Marvin Lewis, but call keep the movers on call because there just might be some changes if things continue like this in Cincy. Also, do we need to put an all-points bulletin out on Ocho Cinco? But, really, why haven’t I learned my lesson about benching T.J. in Fantasy-land? (Loss)

Tampa Bay-30 vs Green Bay-21

Chuck: While I LOVED this win, I just didn’t see it coming. John Gruden must be cracking the whip on this team of old timers because they consistently surprise the hell out of everyone. Oh yeah..and Aaron Rodgers didn’t have such a great day… AAHAHAHA. I love it. (loss)

Risse: Tampa Bay won and Rodgers might be have a separated shoulder. Just great. On a different note, I am very glad Tampa Bay’s Kicker Matt Bryant had an inspiring game the day after burying his infant son (Loss).

San Diego-28 vs Oakland-18

Chuck Oakland….Oakland…..Oakland…. Did everyone get together and sign a pact to play football for only 3 quarters? That defense turns into completely sissies in the last 12 minutes of the game. (win)

Risse: The silver & wack live up to their reputation one mo ‘gin. I actually have really come to like Kiffin. He is clearly a victim of Al Davis maniacal madness and is being both stand-up publicly while still being shat upon by the carrying-ons of the Raiders organization. But my affection for him grew tremendously somehow in that call for Janikowski to kick a 76-yard field goal. Was it not the the best middle finger a head coach could ever render? (Win)

Buffalo-31 vs St. Louis-14

Chuck: Saw this coming… the Rams head coach should be fired, for no reason other than because I want to pick up Marc Bulger from the free agent list in my fantasy league. (win)

Risse: Stephen Jackson finally made a real impact in fantasy land. Thanks. The Rams take the loss but I’ll take the points. (Win)

Dallas-26 vs Washington-24

Chuck: Why Must I Cry? …. What happened?.. .This seriously saddened me. How do y’all lose at home against Jason Campbell? (loss)

Risse: I had my doubts if they could do it on the road but I have seen the light! Campbell and the ‘Skins rolled into Dallas, saving their best for last in the rivalry’s final Texas Stadium shootout. The Cowboys honestly got punked down the stretch with another classic Romo turnover in a 4th-quarter clutch moment. T.O.’s post-game press show was better than any episode of I Want to Work For Diddy. Stay tuned to Valley Ranch this week because I am sure the drama will continue to bubble. (Loss)

Chicago-24 vs Philadelphia-20

Chuck: Chicago is the most schizophrenic team in the league. They don’t know whether they want to be contenders this year or not. This is the exact reason I’m probably going to pick every one of their games wrong. (loss)

Risse: This was a really good Sunday night game but the Native Son McNabb could not cash in on his Chi-City homecoming game. In the end, I felt denied like Buckhalter at the goal line. (Loss).

Pittsburgh vs Baltimore

Holla back on Tuesday.

This Week’s Earnings: Chuck (5-7) Risse (6-6)
Overall Points: Chuck(3) vs Risse(3)
