Jon’s Week 9 Pro Football Picks

Last Sunday was a bad day for Colts and Bears fans. The Colts lost a big one to the Steelers, and the Bears were throttled by the Patriots. As usual, Jay Cutler is taking the heat for the Bears' loss, but I don't think so. Cutler is far from being a great quarterback, but he is a GOOD quarterback, good enough to win games he should win. The focus for the Bears needs to be on head coach, Marc Trestman, and his system, which is not conducive with Cutler's skill set....at all.

I figured the Cowboys were a lock over the Redskins, but a poor offensive display, and Tony Romo going down late in the game with a back injury helped the 'Skins' to a 20-17 victory over the 'Boys', who are starting to show some chinks in their armor.

I look for the Colts to get back on track this week with a victory over the other Manning, Eli and the Giants, in the monday night game in New York. See my picks for this week below and make your picks here for a chance at $10,000 in the Lucy Bella's Pizzeria Pro Football Pick 'Em Challenge.
