There is nothing better than having the NFL Network for the entire Thursday night slate. As most of you know, tonight's game will be on the NFL Network and all Thursday games until Thanksgiving then a couple more in December. I am happy this will be my first full season and I am looking forward to watching all the games this season. What's weird is I am still without our NBC affiliate here in Milwaukee so for the second straight year, I am not fully locked and loaded. Remember we are picking both the NFL and college games for Thursday.
Thursday Night NFL: New York Jets at New England (-13) 7:25pm NFLN - The Patriots come into this game banged up and not really impressed anyone in the first game of the season. They will likely be without Danny Amendola and Rob Gronkowski plus Zac Sudfield and Shane Vereen will be gone for the week. If this is a time for New York to beat New England, this is it. The Patriots will need something from Kenbrell Tompkins who looked like the bright lights suffocated him last week. New England's defense looked alright considering they only gave up 14 points. I would not count them out especially against the Jets.
Now the Jets played better than we all expected last week. They were hitting the Tampa Bay offense pretty good and keeping them out of the endzone. Geno Smith looked great, all things considered, but he will have to travel into the bright lights of Foxboro with a drunk as hell crowd fired up to see their team for the first time. Rex Ryan does coach well against Grandmaster Hoodie for at least the first three quarters of the game. Low scoring game, but the Patriots prevail. NE 23-14
Thursday Night CFB: 24.) TCU at Texas Tech 6:30 pm ESPN - Not a bad secondary option for all the football fans out there. TCU bounced back against SE Louisiana last week after falling to LSU although they looked impressive against the Tigers. Trevone Boykin takes the reigns of the offense as Casey Pachall is out with a fractured arm. Many times I would be nervous about a backup quarterback taking over, but Boykin had a ton of experience from last year. Texas Tech is a ragtag team and I like Kliff Kingsburgy's attitude, but a walk-on quarterback, Baker Mayfield, taking on a tough TCU defense does not equal a Thursday night upset. TCU 28-24
