Theory: Every time I call for a Texan victory, we lose.
Test: I called for a Flaming Thumbtack blowout last week.
Result: We almost squeaked out a win.
Revised theory: If predicting an opponent blowout almost gets a close Texan win, and picking a Texan win equals a Texan loss, then picking an opponent win in close game should equal a comfortable Texan win, right?
Theory: If I call a player's stat line for the game, they end up not seeing the field.
Test: Last week I picked VY to score something like 7 TD's on the ground and throw himself one. Oh, and kick all the extra points.
Result: He didn't play
With no further ado and virtually guaranteeing a Texan victory:
Chargers 24
Texans 13
With LaDainian Tomlinson scoring two TD's on the ground and burning Petey Faggins with a TD throw.
We'll see how the theory goes next week....
