…tonight I’m eating crow! So much for my guarantee. Nine incorrect picks later and I am left picking up the pieces yet again. Can I salvage a 7-9 week tonight? I guess it’s worth a try…
Tampa Bay (2-6, 0-3 away)
at
Carolina (4-4, 2-2 home)
In the last two games that they’ve played, the Tampa Bay cornerbacks have been burned by speedy receivers (Marques Colston and Plaxico Burress). They’ll encounter an even tougher hurdle tonight, facing Steve Smith, the most explosive receiver in the game. Coming off a BYE week, I am pretty sure that John Fox will have a pretty good offensive game plan that will implement the finally healthy Smith as much as possible. Bruce Gradikowski was a feel-good story at first, but in his last couple outings he hasn’t looked too impressive. I don’t think he has what it takes to lead his team to victory on the road against a hungry, rested and well-prepared Panthers team.
My Pick: Steve Smith leads the way as the Panthers roll
SAFE PICK
