The Colts' 28 million dollar question - Where goes Peyton Manning?

Jan. 26, 2012: On the heels of a 2-14 season, and having recently replaced virtually their entire front office and coaching staff, the Indianapolis Colts are unquestionably entering a new era. At this point, there appear to be a lot more questions than there are answers with regards to what the future holds. What happens now to Peyton Manning? FULL STORY

Pigskin Picks - Tom Brady will lead New England back to Super Bowl

Jan. 19, 2012: In a game featuring the conferences top two seeds, the Baltimore Ravens (2) look to upset the favoured New England Patriots (1), who historically have put home field advantage to good use in both the regular season and in the playoffs. This should be a great game, with each team having definite strengths they will wish to deploy and weaknesses that they will wish to cover up. FULL STORY

Pigskin Picks - Look for Manning and Giants to find their way back to the playoffs

Dec. 30, 2011: Dallas Cowboys vs New York Giants - Two very talented playoff calibre teams square off in a huge battle from which only one playoff team will emerge. Tony Romo's sore hand has received much attention. Look for Eli Manning and the G-Men to find their way back to the playoffs. Giants win! FULL STORY

Pigskin Picks - Manning, Giants will upset Jets in Meadowlands

Dec. 23, 2011: The New York Jets have the brash talk of Coach Rex Ryan and the outstanding play of Darelle Revis, who has kept opposing WR on Revis Island all season. The New York Giants have a defensive line, led by super sophomore Jason Pierre-Paul, who thrive on getting to the QB. FULL STORY

Pigskin Picks - No comeback this week for Tebow against Brady

Dec. 17, 2011: The Tim Tebow show continues to roll, and at the risk of incurring the wrath of the Divine intervention which has seemed to define his short tenure as the Broncos starter, my best guess is that he will seem somewhat less than godlike when matched up against the Pats Tom Brady. Patriots win. FULL STORY

Pigskin Picks - Tebow expected to lead Broncos to victory

Dec. 10, 2011: No Cutler and no Forte spell doom for da Bears. The Broncos, meanwhile, continue to surpass expectations based on a solid defence and the inspiring play of QB Tim Tebow, who may not look like an NFL passer (unless you are looking way back in the vaults at very early NFL game film), but has certainly demonstrated the ability to run his team to victory.

Pigskin Picks - Hanie will pick up first win against Orton's Chiefs

Dec. 3, 2011: The Chicago Bears run at success figures to get a bit rockier with the loss of Jay Cutler, who had really been playing well. His replacement, Caleb Hanie, can make plays with his feet, but is no Cutler in the air. Thankfully for Hanie and the Bears, the Kansas City Chiefs are led by Tyler Palko in what figures to be his last ever NFL start before he gives way to newly acquired Kyle Orton. FULL STORY

Pigskin Picks - Stafford, Lions to upset Packers on Thanksgiving

Nov. 24, 2011: Pigskin Picks went 4 for 6 last week (don't ask why I went with an extra game - I do not know myself), leaving my season average just shy of 80%. Detriot has a chance for the upset, provided that they can get a few breaks and keep the pace with GB's league best offence. Look for a high scoring affair in Detroit. FULL STORY

Pigskin Picks - Chargers to upset Bears in Windy City

Nov. 19, 2011: Chicago is favoured at home, where they have played surprisingly well. Look for the Chargers, who have not played to expectations all season, to do so today. Chicago at home is going to be a tough one, especially with Forte, Cutler and company playing as well as they have, but look for San Diego and Philip Rivers to finally snap out of their funk today.
