" Welcome to the weekend preview brought you mother Verizon football's -- available on vcast only Verizon Wireless mobile device rise of football zone for all your wireless football needs. Brian overjoyed by the former pro quarterback Erik Kramer he -- solid weekend and a lot of football and ice floating around my pumpkin thanks pumpkin time by the whenever coordinator next week maybe anti do you work on though not necessarily has for the playoffs when -- this series and -- let's start with a marquee match up in Green Day. Vikings day DL the Packers at Lambeau Field. -- think Brett Favre will deal with the emotions going back to green that."

" I think it's gonna be a great situation for him obviously he wants to do well in Green Bay. But you know just the whole atmosphere there is going to be electric in I think Brett done a fantastic job this year. A deal with that and he's knows he's got a great team he knows he's got to do things. This can this silly he's thrown twelve touchdowns what three interceptions this year hasn't given a game away yet and his book is relying on a lot of luck components around him. And really has made a lot of people including Sidney Rice a lot better this year. Favre threw the ball over fifty times last week in Pittsburgh do you think the Vikings have to get Adrian Peterson more involved this week yes there's no doubt and I don't know why they didn't stick with that more because they've got. The kind of offensive lines they can do that. What happens to a last week was Casey Hampton in the middle of that 34 defense. Really prohibit those guards from getting up on inside linebackers which is the key to playing that defense I don't think the Green Bay has that kind of front. Seven to do that to actively keep the Vikings from getting bought Adrian Peterson more -- shaky but our Roger's not act last week albeit against Cleveland Browns don't count them as a pro football team I didn't Rodgers will do against the Vikings -- defense well you know -- last week against the Steelers was. If you neutralize Jared Allen. There's not a lot of push anywhere else the run stopping tandem of the Williams Brothers inside. Are just that they don't get a lot of push in the hands inside on a pass you don't have a lot of pressure telephone the other side. And I'm. You know I don't understand why they didn't bring more blitzes. From the linebackers but they were content to let Roethlisberger that back in the pocket and pick them apart I think they've got to get after -- more this week okay let's move on to -- take on the Eagles in a divisional match -- Giants were undefeated to start the year of the laws back to back games. What other big issues and they seem like they got a lot all of a sudden defensively I thought there were gonna go into the season as one of the best front sevens in the game. They've had a ton of injuries in the secondary but the front seven really hasn't asserted itself the last couple weeks. Offensively he Eli Manning doesn't look the same as he did the first four -- he looked confident then. All the receivers were stepping up making plays now Eli looks a little more I think the shelves are also Shell -- the right word we just look quite as confident. And now because of that. They don't have the downfield threat they have before they came in last game against the Cardinals ran the ball effectively for the first quarter and then got away from -- I think they have. An issue right now we've get them gotta get back to the basics they had to start the season. Brian Westbrook try to come back from a concussion he suffered a Monday night with the Eagles without a new dynamic playmaker in DeSean Jackson that it's great and you saw this happening over the course of last season and now. He can do it all he's got. That play making ability is in the return game they got to reverse last week and up and down the field -- an offensive threat in the passing game he's got a knack. For making big plays and I think that's really. Been a comfort zone now for Donovan as he starts to develop that chemistry -- him. They've got Brad delicate tight -- started -- some good things if they can get Brian Westbrook and that running game -- obviously he's he's banged up a little bit but they need somebody to step up in the running game in on the offense -- start affect all of a better TF questions about the Eagles offensive front because seems like Donovan McNabb is facing a lot of pressure this year absolutely yes sacked five or six times against the Raiders -- got banged up last week. There's no doubt in my mind that he has to be protected he's not the Donovan of all he doesn't wanna get out. In run around and make plays with a -- all the time he's a very precise a lot more precise pass of the he's been in the past and I think you have to play that they've got a short something's up. Whether it should -- the up with the wind out of the running backs getting out of reporting get out of the pass dropped the holding the tide in a big guy do something even if it means. Getting him back rolling him out in a designed rollout to get the ball down the field."

" Okay now let's get he says he perspective from Mike harmonies and an out -- and -- baseman Mike does the Halloween Barrett."

" Everybody in my government here happy Halloween. Rarely get there's not. Aren't so is that better or worse you know we all looked out of your staff. Let's get that out of way we got our start sits sleepers for this week let's get Iraq starting right away Marc Bulger yeah -- Mark Mulder going up against Detroit. Pass defense giving up nearly 250. And three course per game. Like the match appear Detroit it's indoors you looking at a possible shoot out between two of the worst teams now got to get excited about something right. Justin Fargas got to give San Diego without Jamal Williams. Line it has been atrocious upfront don't have room to run the look good the last two weeks has finally Matt Forte. Why I'm just trying to give you a vote of confidence you -- a little bit I hope he's your audience clearly given about fought having these two. Per game. Touchdown per money's got to get right some -- it now Eli Manning -- Philly last five games five touchdowns. Four picks averaging 109 yards per game. Not a nice spot for him this week particularly after two lackluster performances he broke Pierre Thomas dorm against Atlanta Mike -- creep -- and seen too much of that. Workload in my opinion. And walls was goal line touches and out and finally Joe Flacco going up against Denver and a Baltimore comes out of the by the Denver defense has been phenomenal. We'll get a 182 yards per game point three touchdowns while. And Elvis Dumervil coming off the edge no answer there how about a couple sleepers go -- go back to back. Detroit -- Donnie Avery scores two of his last 32 catches 58 yards this last time out against Indianapolis. Guy who might be on your radar and James Jones and the Packers touchdowns in back to back in Jordy Nelson out to Michael Finley I expected to go. And -- gonna find somebody deep and Antoine Winfield chill out opportunities abound for Rogers in the passing game."

" Michael thank you we can't can't we he would -- does a Christmas time coming couple break down the game between the Colts and the 49ers. As the Verizon football's all weekend preview could take. Welcome back to the weekend preview brought you -- Verizon football's -- available on vcast on -- rise in wireless mobile device rise of footballs don't -- your wildest football need. Bryan Webber Erik Kramer back we -- we can't let's talk about the 49ers taking on the Colts Alex metal guy -- Francisco when they take on Andy do you agree with a."

" Quarterbacking change I really don't I mean Alex Smith has been there several years and it looks like he's not the long term answer this team he came in and had a good half. Against what I would consider very Vanilla. Texans defense that would just -- with a big lead. There's no doubt to me that Shaun Hill even though he's not the long term answer to this team has guided them to some very you know good wins. A strong start to this season I don't see really the reason to. -- him as the quarterback with wonder to what really a game and a half that wasn't very productive. Given the chance to come out of this thing I think he's the identity that this team has a quarterback right now don't see the need for the shakeup."

" Have a the cult still undefeated Bob Sanders back now on defense he's -- began --"

" What are we really know about this."

" They have and I think what they have as they've gotten some confidence and up front front they've got a few guys up front now played defensive tackle. That are undrafted. Did cast offs from other teams and yet they're played well. Big getting a little penetration of the backfield they're not a consistent defense by any means people are still making plays on a but offensively if they can get up on teams as they have in the past and and seemed to. This year they're gonna put pressure on the quarterback when they play with a lead. Okay let's move all the Broncos still undefeated. Coming -- body take on the Ravens will Denver still be understated let Nellie multiple my guests are my prediction is no. I think the Baltimore Ravens they played not very well these past few weeks they've had to buy now to rest up. Get something straight out and it. -- I am not willing to give up on them just yet eh offensively I think they're gonna put the pressure on this the on this there's Denver defense that. That teams really haven't so far -- I think. You know from an offensive perspective they typically don't make a lot of mistakes and that's what -- been preying upon this year -- the Ravens -- a -- yards this year -- think this is still really -- I -- really I -- confidence in the Pittsburgh Steelers -- still -- watch -- last week against Minnesota but I think there's -- In the secondary for the Ravens. I gotta believe though that over the course this season especially coming off this vitamin and iron out some kinks there usually when your secondary is a little. Suspect it means your offense of the other your defense of line is not getting the pressure on the quarterback and I think that's been a lot of the case this year the mile auto and other games the Cowboys taking on the Seahawks are you buying what Miles Austin is doing out there are two very big day I think so because this guy is big he's physical he's got leaping ability. Good frame good hands and I think Tony Romo for the most part has had define a guy like that to complement Jason Witten he found it. Miles Austin has obviously. Been getting the job done he's got good run after the catch I don't see really. Why he wouldn't continue to the Dolphins take on the Jets in a divisional match up will Miami be able to bounce back after blowing that huge lead against the key really is going to be what they did in the first half they would be able to get a lot of pressure on Drew Brees look at -- interceptions he threw. Coming out of his hands don't they swarmed him around in the pocket. Later in the game they've jumped up list and got a tip off for an interception both the type of things this defense has to do this week. Offensively they're gonna do what they've always done run the football I think I was impressed last week you with the Dolphins have taken a second half a star fall apart when they had to turn over to. But I think this week if they can protect the ball themselves they got pretty good opportunity."

" Okay the Jets have won the top defense is of football please be joined by starting linebacker Calvin Pace Galvin during Sunday's win over the Raiders."

" Quarterback Mark Sanchez was he eating hot dog what's up when the rookie."

" The outlook or some awful -- these are at the apartment and a pocket and Robert you know. Yet and if you let me."

" is plays an up and down they sure that's typical of a first year player you practice again and every day how good you think he debate."

" Another Vietnam out of trouble while it's going to be a war. -- what Abercrombie and he probably -- In my opinion and beyond in the Japanese player hopeful all waiting -- prefer -- Yeah -- opt out you're already. Nope regular top repeat and so you know Pete Carroll -- 00 he already -- that you know. That about it and you know company and -- to they're awful you know go Lamar. And -- thing that they did they keep simple and the company expects. He's he's quite that he'd been -- doubtful he'd keep it no definite."

" W miss the first four games of the season to get a big game in northern California three Jackson a pair of forced fumbles are you working your way back to where you want a big."

" That Uga the human error in the world the part where. He thought -- it's -- new games. Felt you know versus notre counsel -- Bellamy. Went back and missing any action and they -- market like mine and -- Eat. Who do -- per game and you know what's allowed -- you know on the civic there's also. I'll look forward sparked well actually we -- Burke performed well. You know this but -- you know keep working -- there's target back."

" This weekend the Jets have a rematch with Miami we've been talking about the dolphins' wildcat formation causing problems -- lots of teams what makes -- still effective."

" All. You know if this party candidate won the right place when it but it also they do actually. You know extra person. -- out or they corporate government not Uga people. You know you actually have real rock opera about. People and they become good comedies you -- it will be there for right on the right. They were up your package is practically elect as well in the division I will -- in fact it. Not a governor Bob Ehrlich -- don't they keep audited. By Arctic are available. You know whole. Planet that have earned their account to work on it but it all."

" The Jets are led by first year head coach Rex Ryan you guys seem to be buying into what he shelling has -- one over a locker room."

" Bobby and myself. And our topic match because who guards. You know that he. A ball. You know it'll likely be the -- Record so he always keep an OB. Obviously you'd -- they are wary enough wood who will do it. He thought I think that the minute that wanna -- new musical or maybe it so they got integrity. It is our route to -- before 00. Won't -- equally aren't yoga. And you know been so moved OP go on in the cart logo."

" Galvin thanks to dig in it's -- good look on Sunday coming up we'll get you ready for the Monday night game between the Falcons aids as the rise and football's own. Weekend preview roles not. Welcome back to the weekend preview brought you by the Verizon football zone available on. Football needs Bryan Webber Erik Kramer spotlighting the Monday night game -- divisional matchup between the Falcons and it."

" He get your lord of the may very candid about that. The Falcons lowdown the -- Todd."

" They brought some blitzes they -- they pressure the quarterback opened. That Drew Brees hasn't had to face much this year. And that's really the key you kick any quarterback I don't care who has come -- Brady for a couple years going -- who -- the Giants with -- first team that you're a lot to finally get to him. Brees is enjoyable enjoying a lot of time in the pocket. If you don't get pressure on him it's over he's gonna pick you apart a defense giving up. Too many yards too many points but it makes a big plays and Darren Sharper is an outstanding vision he's been really I think. That offensively he's been their captain their playmaker this year he's ended a lot of drives. Last week the -- second half even though Henne put the ball up I think it a perfect spot for Ted Ginn junior on that drive along pro. He ends up bobbled and of course Darren Sharper they're not only make the interception. But to get this team -- about putting opinions on I think that's he's done that many times this year and got the defense. Get the ball back more important for the office."

" Well no doubt the chopper plays a lot of energy many coaches he can't -- as well here's. Brian Billick from coach speak on foxsports.com. With a highly caffeinated story about coffee."

" You talk about game day routine there was a while I think was my third foresees during the game day I was really starting to have some heart palpitations. And I thought my god I'm too young to be -- architect of the business. And so that told doctors are having some difficulty and they did all the treadmill little bit. UK Jesus death and Kuroda couldn't find anything so. Our doctor Tucker Arafat in the stock with the Baltimore Ravens kind of starved trail -- on game day. And after couple weeks to -- release -- Brian what you know on the clock you -- during the week. I said well I'm not a big coffee drink all have a cup probably on the way to work in the morning and maybe half a cup. Later that morning that's about it his I think I know where your problem is he says -- June which coffee -- on game day. What -- found out what I -- up in the morning and go over the paper and have a couple coffee -- start local the game go down pregame meal and have some more coffee cup back up to the room. I'll -- over the game plan again drinks more coffee get the stadium. Drink some more coffee just out of nervous energy I had to Kathy did behind by Thomas don't play in the game or go home would vacuum the garage midnight. Hustle so juiced up on the caffeine I thought I was having a heart attack so routines can be -- dangerous."

" Thanks Brian coming up arrogant I won't gaze into the future. We're back with the weekend preview brought you -- Verizon football's unavailable on -- Sunday Verizon Wireless mobile device rise -- your wireless football needs. Bryan Webber joined by a man -- although it."

" They all powerful Erik Kramer what your pick of the week. Well I think it's so much fun to stick with Brett Favre in games he plays -- there's a lot of big ones obviously this sweeping green Bay's huge I think -- As much as I wanna pick. Brett Favre -- I gotta he's the settlement a favorite among this year however I think the Green Bay Packers are gonna rise up based on what I saw last week in Pittsburgh. Don't -- unwillingness of Leslie Frazier and that defense. Minnesota to put pressure on the quarterback I think is gonna -- disaster this week in green Bay Area writers have played magnificent. The offensively I think the Green Bay Packers Rose up last week although it was against the Cleveland Browns. I think they've got open in mind this week with that 34 defense the stymied them the Minnesota Vikings a little bit last week. I just see the Green Bay Packers going to -- but at home with all the pressure and everything else what I don't think is going to be huge I think their offense rose's take. The burden of most of the board this game."

" I like the reason and like the logic Mike Harmon might be sequestered -- fancy basement but. Mike has strong opinions as well let's check in with Michael for the Halloween version of -- says --"

" Amateur Mike Harmon on the road here in another fantasy basement here for the -- week. We're -- Steve Slaton. I know he was a first round pick but you don't want to last week you were getting nervous had a rushing touchdown at the receiving -- big thing here the rushing touchdowns from one yard out. Maybe he's gonna get the goal line carries Gil on board the Seattle of the matchup this week -- against Baltimore Buffalo giving up 172 point nine per game on the ground. And one point 57 touchdowns you gotta love that he had an opportunity here for another big day out of Slaton and that Houston offense. That's spirit that's gonna be a lock of the week -- might come -- go trick or trading. Happy Halloween everybody."

" Thanks Mike could dive for celebrity picks for that we're heading into the octagon here's a guy who never pulled any global punches. The head of the USC --"

" I'm Dana White the Ultimate Fighting Championship and I'm here with a celebrity NFL picks for week eight the Philadelphia Eagles -- New York giant. I am an eagle fan I do like the Eagles but I don't think they're gonna beat the Giants Giants great football team. You know these guys everybody count them out last season and they're coming back strong again this season I think they're gonna beat Philadelphia. The -- the Green Bay game obvious I gotta go with Minnesota I think that you know. Favre is gonna do it again they beat him already this year and you know I think it's a very emotional game. For Favre and all the other players but I think -- or is a much better team I think they're gonna -- Green Bay again. The Dolphins in the -- Obviously. The Dolphins arrived at beat the Jets already but I like the Jets I think the Jets are gonna beat him this time why. Don't know why they get -- idea but I like the Jets in this game I think they're gonna win the -- ever know obviously I'm a you gotta go Peyton Manning didn't play great football. And -- actually think that across if the Chargers and Raiders gotta go with the Chargers at home I think there you know neither team is playing that great. But I think the Chargers have a better football team I think they're gonna beat the Oakland Raiders so I'm Dana White would deal with fighting championship and that's your week eight celebrity NFL picks. Don't go with me and a lot more about fighting that I do about football with the."
