Ken Hawk's Friday Huddle Quick Hits - Week 13

  • Coach Hawk is back! The guy is lucky to be here, spending the Thanksgiving weekend in the hospital after receiving third degree burns to his wanger. If someone tells you to check that turkey with a "meat thermometer", think before you act.
  • Week 13 of the NFL season and what do we know so far. Well, some here and there. Ken Hawk went 13-3 last week in his picks, which goes to show even a guy who drinks mustard and knows nothing about football can chose a winner.
  • This weekend the Cowboys and Giants face off, and regardless of what direction each team is going this is heating up to be a statement rivalry game. Dallas says let's go. New York says no way in hell.
  • There are too many names in the news, too much press and too many people voicing in the Giants camp to convince me that this team has re-focused itself for this showdown. This is an angry, confused group publicly voicing its discontent, and is becoming increasingly individual, and less a team.
  • I can't see this team coming together to overcome the soaring Dallas opposition, it's that simple. There's a lack of confidence, leadership, and some send this message like they don't even care. That won't make one difference to the Cowboys.
  • I could go both ways with Parcells's decision this week. Vanderjagt has a pretty accurate history behind him, but the question is what can you do for me now. I was half expecting Dallas's post-season to end with a wide kick in a windy stadium.
  • Here's the Miami Dolphins cheerleaders. They give Ken that funny feeling he used to get trying to climb the rope in gym class.
  • On Sunday the Seahawks will square off against the Broncos in Denver. A new era begins, as the sword is passed to Cutler, as Plummer has just run out of time.
  • The day had to come, the question was when Shanahan would move on. At 7-4 in the playoff push, a victory here would undoubtedly spark this team and its fans and keep them in the wild card race. However, with the pressure on Cutler, to get it going, to turn this season around (thats why he's in now, isn't it?) I don't believe he will be able to instantly pull this offense back together in seven days. Despite the short week I'll take the 'Hawks for the upset.
  • That should do it for Ken Hawk, lets do some picks for week 13 (Week 12: 13-3)
  • Cincinnati > Baltimore UPSET
  • St Louis > Arizona
  • Atlanta > Washington UPSET
  • New England > Detroit
  • Ken Hawk slapped > Ken Hawk getting laid
  • Indianapolis > Tennessee
  • Kansas City > Cleveland
  • Chicago > Minnesota
  • NY Jets > Green Bay
  • San Diego > Buffalo
  • New Orleans > San Francisco
  • Oakland > Houston
  • Miami > Jacksonville
  • Dallas > NY Giants
  • Pittsburgh > Tampa Bay
  • Seattle > Denver UPSET
  • Carolina > Philadelphia

Once again, wonderful insight and great picks. Maybe Ken Hawk needs to seek advise from himself on how to pick up the ladies. Oh wait, that will get him more than just slapped, plus people will wonder why he's talking to himself.

Damn blogger!!!

Ken Hawk's advice on how to pick up the ladies? Brilliance.

Ken Hawk has got the work day off! Thank you snow. I can't wait to throw myself down a hill because I don't have a fucking sled. But man, this rocks. Ken Hawk approves of Snow Babes.

Looking forward to seeing some good games this weekend.

Thanks, Rex.

Some picks I didn't want to go with my instinct on today, that was a mistake. Dallas looks pretty damn good.
And again, thanks Rex.

I'm excited about New Orleans at Dallas next week. I think New Orleans has made its case in the NFC this year. Keep in mind, they're 8-4 after a tough schedule against those AFC North teams. This will be a damn good game.

Me too Ken! Two 8-4 teams begin the battle to see will take that second first-round bye. Reggie Bush is awesome, but the Cowboys run defense has gotten pretty tough over the last few weeks. If the Saints have any chance of winning this game, Breese will have to do it in the air.

My money is on my Cowboys! Romo is quickly becoming a superstar.

10-6 this week, argh.
