Almost all NFL teams have hit the quarter mile pole in the NFL season and we are beginning to see the cream of the NFL. The season is too long 12 more games to go for most to count any one in the playoffs yet. Last week went 8-5 to run my guess record to 41-20. Here we go with week five.
Minn @ Green Bay: Picked the Vikes beating Atlanta but won't even think about them this week. There is no doubt career quarterbacking numbers State Farm man is best ever. Especially when he has time Aaron Rogers and company 38-31 over Vikes.
Chicago @ Carolina: Cams not 100%. He is not that good a quarterback when they don't rush for anything to help him in the passing game taking pressure off. Panthers need this one but so do the Bears. I think Panthers win in a close one 24-22
Cleveland @ Tennessee: Here is the game of the week in Cleveland and Nashville only. Browns win 26-17.
St Louis @ Philadelphia: I think the NFL has seen the Eagles passing game now and everyone realizes you beat the Eagles by out scoring them. The Rams are not the team to do it. 34-14 The City of brotherly Love.
Tampa Bay @ New Orleans: TB beat a bad Steelers team so what, now they get a shot to beat the Saints under Drew Brees almost unbeatable in the Super Doom. They sure couldn't beat Dallas in the Jerry Dome. 36-24 Saintshandle the Bucks.
Houston@ Dallas: This has the makings of a really good one because the Texans have a defense and maybe the best defensive player in football in Watts. The Cowboys have a running game which means Tony Romo doesn't have to mess the game up in the clutch. Houston 35 Dallas 31
Buffalo @ Detroit: Who would ever have thought that Coach Caldwell was the man to calm the Lions down. Once again Buffalo starts 2-0 and fails to make playoffs Lions 34-Buff 20
Baltimore @Indy: I just don't know why I like Indy in this one. I think Ravens have let down after making sure they beat Steve Smith's old team the Panthers Indy 38-Bal 28
Pittsburgh @ Jacksonville: Could this be a win Jaxsonville? I'm thinking, I'm thinking hard. No way Steelers regroup at their embarrassing finish at home to Tampa Bay. 31-17
Jets@ Chargers: Jets need one badly. Since Mike McCoy Has been head coach at San Diego Philip Rivers has a QB rating of 107. Jets secondary is spotty at best. If Chargers stay healthy in all the right places they are trouble for somebody this year. Way too much trouble for the floundering Jets. 31-13 Super Chargers
Arizona @ Denver: Talk about game of the week. Everybody that thinks they have playoff hopes still in both the AFC and NFC will be watching this one. I like Zona a lot but not in Denver. 31-26
Kansas City@ San Fransico: I think the Niners found something against the Eagles. You don't win by just showing up plus look at their schedule so far toughie. SF 26-KC 21
Cincinnati @ New England: Here is a chance for the Bengals to make a statement on Sunday night football. Tigers 27- New England 24
Seattle @ Washington: Seattle is great at home but 50-50 on the road under Russell Wilson. If the Giants can dominate the Redskins then it's the Seahawks. 35 -23.

History Of The Ryder Cup
We have a history in this country when we have sporting events and compete against the world we want to win everything. Just let us lose a Olympic Basketball Gold Metal with a bunch of college players and we will send Michael Jordan and company the next time to show you.
The Ryder Cup was started in 1927 when America hosted the best Golfers from Great Britian and up until WWII we won every time. By 1973 we dominated the Ryder Cup so much that it was be decided to add European players to at least give us a challenge. There was one unexpected event that happen from the Ryder Cup adding Europe was the European Golf Tour pick up in quality and now may have better players than the PGA tour. One reason in the last 20 years European golf has improved is coverage by the Golf Channel, letting more people see it in Europe and if you are young a want to be a golfer.
The PGA has more money available but there are more great players in Europe than in the US. So one of the reasons we not longer dominant the Ryder Cup is we no longer only have to beat Great Britian but all of Europe. That's almost like Greenville Rose playing North Edgecome but now Rose has to beat both DH Conley and South Central all on the same team.
Here is another failure of US Golf. There is no longer a go for broke player like Arnold Palmer or Tiger Woods who played to make every shot. There is so much money on tour these days that players settle for hitting the ball in the middle of the green instead of trying to hit the ball in the hole. In other words there is so much money to finish fourth in a tournament why do I risk a bad shot which might drop me to tenth. Most tournaments these days fourth makes 200,000 which ain't a bad week of work. I know a gulp and a great shot might make you a winner and win a million this week but a bad shot I will only win 50,000 for tenth.
So the bottom line is we have better competition to win the cup and PGA players aren't use to playing in competition where every shot could get you in the losers column. The PGA tour is you have to make shots to shoot about 275 shots in a weekend to win where the Ryder Cup every shot either you win this hole or fall behind.
Quite frankly I like it when there is a challenge and it means you had to work your butt off to win. Not a whole lot of challenge to just show up and be guaranteed a win. Our only problem we can't send Michael Jordan and company to fix this losing. We need to improve our golfers we send. Europe sure has.

Mr. Yankee Calls It Quits
The 20 year baseball career of Derek Jeter is over. If you look at his career numbers he has over 3,400 hits which should be enough by itself to make the Hall Of Fame. His career 310 batting average is pretty good too.
If there was ever a player who could deliver when the spotlight was on it is Derek Jeter. He was steady but never a great defensive shortstop. He did however win five Gold Gloves. He always seemed to do the right thing. Remember the World Series game when Jeter flipped the ball to home to cut down a runner when he was in foul territory on the first base side ten feet from home plate. What in the world is the short stop doing there? He just knew where the ball was going to be on a throw from the outfield.
Despite being a Hall of Famer in waiting the Yankees will be a better team next year because they have become old. If you look at New York City teams and I say that as the Giants, Knicks and Yankees the news media if you play for those teams make you great and those sports organization hold on to players too long because of media pressure and fans expectations from media hype.
The Dallas Cowboys need to keep Demarco Murray Healthy. This newly discovered running game made them look like world beaters last night. We all know the Cowboys will finish 8-8. Isn't this the way the NFC East goes. Every four games another team looks unbeatable and the team that was 2-6 wins the division.
In case you haven't heard the Packers and the Bears did not punt in their game yesterday. It is only the second time in NFL history that there were no punts in a game. The last time that happened was 1990 when Buffalo and San Fransico met and the quarterbacks were Jim Kelly and Steve Young. They both passed for over 400 yards And 1100 total yards. The score was 34-31.
Sunday the San Diego Chargers rushed for 42 yards on 20 attempts which is awful. No problem as Philip Rivers throws for 377 yards and three touchdowns . His top two rushers out with injury, he was sacked twice and hit on several other attempts Rivers manages to avoid the rush and for the 24th straight game throws a touchdown pass which is a San Diego a Charger Franchise record .

Gurley Continues To Be A Monster
Todd Gurley goes over 200 yards rushing for the first time in his college career but unless Georgia comes up with a defense Georgia will not win enough games to help Todd win the Heisman even though he has shown through four games he is the best player in college football. Gurley had over 100 yards rushing in the fourth quarter alone.
Those of you that thought N C State wasn't that good after the so called poor schedule had better take notice now. They showed today with good quarterback play they can play with anyone. The first time this year Florida State's offense looked like last year's national championship team. However The Pack rushed for way too many yards on Florida State for them to make it to the National Championship game. As much improvement as the Wolfpack has shown you could just see they didn't have enough speed to play with FSU.
The Battling Bishops went on the road Saturday and won at Ferrum 34-30. Jacque Alston rushed for more yards than Todd Gurley 218 and lead they way. NCW now stands at 2-2 on the 2014 football season. They are home next Saturday at 1pm. If you have been by the Sports Complex lately you will notice there are signs calling the Football stadium at the sports Complex as Bishops Stadium.
Just about everyone in the area has completed their non-conference schedule, there will be a big game next Friday as Tarboro travels to Southern Nash. Big East fans probably can look and see the top three being Fike, Hunt and Northern Nash. The bottom tier looks like Southern Nash, Rocky Mount and Nash Central. What order is up for debate.
North Carolina has scored 76 points the last two games but were outscored by 44. You know ECU had a defense like this in Ruffin McNeil's first season in Greeenville. This is not the first year for Larry Fedora in Chapel Hill.
Wake Forest and Duke both had no offense at all in their losses on Saturday. Duke offense the fourth quarter was throw into double coverage and hope.
Finally this fall Pat and I have followed Campbell volleyball as we have passed through Texas, California, Arizona, Virginia and Maryland. Friday night the Lady Camels in front of about 700 fans at home in Buies Creek won their conference opener beating their top rival High Point in four sets. Morgan's freshman year the Lady Camels lost all 14 conference games and last year under new coach Greg Goral were 6-8 in the Big South. That did not get a top eight spot in and a conference tournament invite. The Lady Camels look as if they will be middle of the Big South and if they are in the conference Tournament we will add South Carolina to our road travels as the conference tournament is at Coastal Carolina in Conway. Look out Mytrle Beach here we come.

All Four Public Nash County Schools On the Road
Rocky Mount High School scored a touchdown in the first and second quarter to take a 14-0 lead on The Hawks of Triton High. Juane Sanders scored from five yards out to put the Gryphons on the board in the first and Nick Bynum scored in the second on a 3yarder to give the Gryphons a 14-0 lead in the second. Triton had a eleven yard run by Juwan Thompson to cut the Gryphon lead to 14-7 at the half.
Bynum scored again in the third to give the Gryphons a two touchdown advantage and Chase Miller added all three extra points as the Gryphons hold off the Hawks 21-7. Rocky Mount rushed for 133 yards in the game while Triton had 146. The stats were close during the game as Triton passed for 31 yards while Josh Carter and Forest Bell combined for 67 giving the Gryphons a 200 to 177 lead in total yardage. The Gryphons go to 4-2 heading to a week off before conference play starts two weeks from tonight at Nash Central.
Speaking of Nash Central the Bulldogs had plenty to worry about tonight as Hillside shuts out the Dogs 47-0 to add the Nash Central's misery in losing their 19th straight game.
Northern Nash made a trip down I-95 just a little shorter than the Gryphons did stopping in Smithfield to play the Spartans of Smithfield Selma. Seems as Randy Raper Knights are primed for Big East play as Northern dominates SSS 42-0.
Can't wait to hear about this one as Southern Nash made a trip to Ayden to take on Ayden-Grifton and this game comes down to a missed extra point. Can't wait to hear whether it is a missed kick or if AG missed a two point try but the Firebirds win 7-6.
Rocky Mount Academy continues to roll as they smother Lawrence 64-8. Seems as if every year fewer and fewer teams are playing eight man football. The Eagle success recently bringing more players out for football might be time to make the jump to 11 man.
As expected North Edgecombe had little trouble with Kipp Pride winning 52-8.
The one game win streak for Rocky Mount Prep is over as SE Halifax manhandled the Jags 58-8
Hunt rolled over Beddingfield 42-12 and I'm interested in this score Fike 41- South Johnston 35. Only picked seven games this week and went 7-0.

Last Chance To Prepare For Conference
Last week went 7-2 for the second week in a row to run my over all record for this high school now stands at 35-10. Several teams need to get themselves in order while several just need to refine what is working. Limited schedule this week as both Tarboro and SouthWest Edgecombe are off
Rocky Mount@Triton: Two years ago when these two signed to play each other both needed each other for a quality non conference game. Not this year as Triton is winless and after what Rocky Mount has faced the last two weeks they need to play a quality team to get their house in order. A romp will not do them any good. If this one is close then Rocky Mount has big problems. Gryphons 35 Triton 13
Rocky Mount Prep@ SE HAlifax: Two wins on the season but three will not come this week as SEH will host and take down the Jags. SEH 32 Prep 16
Northern Nash @Smithfield Selma: I like it when conference foes take on the same teams that others have played. Last week Fike played SSS and this week Northern. I think Northern gets settle for conference with another big win. Northern 44 SSS 13
Beddingfield @Hunt: This is big one in Wilson County. So far Hunt hasn't played to the level we consider Hunt like while Beddingfield lost by 25 to Fike. This will be closer. Hunt 26 Beddingfield 20.
Nash Central @ Hillside: Hillside has been picked to be one of the best in 4-A the last two years and they have never quite gotten to that level of superior. Despite that they are plenty good to handle Nash Central who has proven to be a bottom feeder again this year. Hillside 52-Nash Central 20
South Johnston @Fike: Not close at all Fike 53 SJ14
Lawrence Academy @ RMA : The Eagles soar again as they take down the visitors from Bertie County. 49-14.
Just about all the Big East teams will be off next week as two weeks the conference plays starts for them. As far as the Big East is concerned looks like Fike is the team to beat as thought and Hunt and Northern chasing close behind. Question marks remain about Rocky Mount and Southern while Nash Central needs to have something good to happen to them

Bad Week For A Bye
If I was Ruffin McNeil I would want to play somebody this week after winning as Carolina calls it ECU's Super Bowl. Two weeks off before a Poor SMU team might not be the best thing for the Pirates resting on their laurels. Last week had a mediocre 6-4 record losing both games played in Rocky Mount to extend my college pick record to 36-10 for the season.
Congratulations to Shaun Draughn from Tarboro high extending his life in the NFL after being dropped by the Bears. The San Diego Chargers picked him up Wednesday to replace injured Danny Woodhouse and Ryan Matthews. Draughn has played in a total of 22 NFL games to date having played on special teams in the Bears first two games this year. His career so far he has made the teams he has played for as a special teams player with back up running back where he has been able to lumber for 256 career rushing yards. Unless you have Direct tv NFL package should see the Chargers a lot on tv after this week. They play the lowly Jacksonville Jags so no National coverage this week.
Western Michigan @ Virginia Tech: The Hokies need to beat somebody and it might as well be W Michigan. 36- 22
Colorado State @ Boston College: Here's one that I know nothing about the Rams. This game is as BC so I pick them 36-28
Akron @ Pitt: This is one of those games at the end of year you can't afford to lose. Pitt 37-13
Florida State @ NC State: I think the Pack is better than what people realize and I don's see FSU # 1 for long. Just quite can't pull the trigger for N C State but I think this is a great game. FSU 26 Pack 23
Kent State @ Virginia: Hoos all the way 44-14
Wake Forest @ Louisville: Have you ever noticed that the Deacs win games when you don't think they have a chance, but not this week 36-18 the Cards.
NC @ Clemson: Who can win a game when both teams should be spitting nails after the losses last week. Clemson gave one away while Carolina gave way. Clemson 35 Carolina 24
Duke @ Miami: Might be the hardest game in the country to pick this week. I believe in CUT Duke 38 Miami 34
Notre Dame @ Syracuse: If Maryland can beat the Cuse so can the Irish. 37-23
N C Wesleyan @ Ferrum: The Battling Bishops are hard to figure out. Ferrum 32-NCW21
