The Football Prophesies: Week 8

The Football Prophesies predict the outcomes of the week’s NFL games. Each week we’ll announce our expectations along with selective commentary in the Football Prophesies.

Week 8 Football Prophesies:

New Orleans at St. Louis:

Here’s an eerie coincidence: Saints QB Drew Brees completed 31 of 35 passes last week against Indianapolis. That same night, 31 of 35 pedestrians were successfully sucker-punched in East St. Louis.

Cincinnati at Seattle: Cincinnati

The Queen City cats visit the King County…king-a-ma-jigs. Because its Seattle, Bengals personnel places 14 players on suicide watch, cuts up their pregame meal for them.

New England at Pittsburgh

This battle of AFC titans will captivate as Bill Belichick’s hoodie takes on Mike Tomlin’s hat.

Cleveland at San Francisco:

“The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco,” has long been attributed to Mark Twain. The famous author remarked of Cleveland, obscurely: “Egad man! What passes for a city these days! Driver, hasten us southbound toward Louisville and don’t spare the
