"Ron's Week 4 Picks" by Ronald Carthen



"Who dat said the Falcons were going to beat those Saints?" and who said the Cowboys were going to the Texans? That's right I went 12-4 in my Week 3 picks last week and feeling real good all week long. Enough about me let's talk the biggest game of the week.

Donovan McNabb returns to Philadelphia as he and Redskins will pay a visit to Michael Vick and the Philadelphia Eagles. Vick can thank McNabb on Sunday for giving him a second chance in his football career. Last season, McNabb came to the Eagles front office and ask for Vick to join the team. Then Andy Reid and company decided to take a chance and it is paying off so far this season.

After coming on wildcats and short-yardage situations last season, Vick is having fun on the football field and making defenders nervous and slow once again. He is completing 60.7% of his passes for 750 passing yards, six touchdown passes and no interceptions. He's not only the biggest comeback story this season, people are also buzzing about him possibly being an MVP candidate. After 18 months in a federal prison for his part in a dogfighting ring, I enjoy watching his career is back on track.

McNabb was traded to the Redskins during the offseason after leading the Eagles to five NFC Championships, four NFC East titles, and a trip to Super Bowl XXXIX, where they lost to the Patriots 24-21. Now he leads the Redskins into Lincoln Financial Field to meet the nasty and diehard Eagle fans. Ever since his Week 1 win over the Cowboys, things haven't been any better for him and the Redskins. They lost a 17-point lead to the Texans 30-27 in overtime two weeks ago and lost to the St. Louis Rams.

Even though McNabb is throwing 60.8% of his passes for 833 passing yards, only two touchdown passes and an interception, he needs a big game in Philly against the Eagles defense, who allow 20.7 points a game.

Eagles fans if you have a heart please show McNabb some respect when he comes out the tunnel on Sunday. Ever since you were angry you guys picked him over Ricky Williams in the draft back in 1999, he's brought you guys big wins and plenty of excitement in your seats every Sunday. He a real heart and give him a standing ovation.

Now on to my picks and I hope do my thing once again this week. Have a great NFL Sunday everyone.
