Simmons joined the Tigers in 1936 and hit

We are going to storm into Jacksonville with our heads held high, and we are going to give Tim Tebow and company a fight they will never forget!GOOOOOOOOOOOO DAWGS! SIC EM! . ) Sunday night is always a time to watch some good football, and this week will be no different. The Arizona Cardinals and the New York Giants square off in what should be a great NFC matchup.The Giants are coming off of their first loss of the season and a pretty bad one at that. They took a beating last week against the Saints.The Cardinals were struggling early on, but have finally started playing well and come in with a 3-2 record. So what should we expect out of both teams as far as Free Sunday Night Football Picks goFor the Cardinals, it’s all about the passing game They are led by two-time NFL MVP Kurt Warner at quarterback. Even though he is getting older, he is still one of the most accurate passers in NFL history.When Warner throws the ball, a trio of talented receivers are there to catch it. Larry Fitzgerald is arguably the most talented receiver in the NFL today.

His ability to go up in traffic and catch the ball is what separates him from the pack.On the other side is Anquan Boldin, who is one of the best receivers in the league in his own right. He has been struggling with injuries all season and is listed as questionable going into this game because of a high ankle sprain.If he can’t go, Steve Breaston will fill in, who was a 1,000-yard receiver last season as the third wideout. The Cardinals offense should be able to score some points, but the question will be whetherthe defense can stop the Giants offense.The Giants will try to regroup after an embarrassing loss to the Saints last week. They hope to get it going again on the ground with Brandon Jacobs as well as through the air.With Eli Manning at quarterback, they have spread the ball around nicely so far this year. Expect this to be a pretty even matchup for both teams.Check out Vernon Croy’s Expert Sunday Night Football Picks for week 7..

I have a few ideas at the skill positions that could lend your team a hand if you have a player injured or on a bye.But first, how did we do last weekLast week's sleeper picks : Kyle Orton: 229 yards, 2 touchdowns Jonathan Stewart:17 carries, 110 yards, 1 touchdown Donnie Avery:1 catch, 17 yards, 1 touchdown Brandon Pettigrew: NothingNot terrible. Avery could have had a bigger day had he not left to injury so early in the game. Matt Cassel, QB, ChiefsCassel has been a disappointment thus far in Kansas City, but this week he is up against a Chargers defense that is no longer intimidating.The Chiefs got their first victory last week against the Redskins and will try and continue their winning ways and Cassel will be the key. Expect a shoot out between Cassel and Philip Rivers. Justin Fargas, RB, RaidersFargas had a successful return against the Eagles last week, helping lead his team to a win. He is facing the Jets' defense that has not been the same since facing Miami's Wildcat offense.The Jets will also be without nose tackle Kris Jenkins. Jenkins is a force against the run that the Jets cannot replace immediately. Robert Meachem, WR, SaintsMeachem has "big play" written all over him when he steps onto the field. He is averaging over 25 yards per catch this season and facing a Miami pass defense that is near the bottom of the NFL.Meachem should be able to beat the Dolphins deep on Sunday. Jeff King, TE, PanthersA diamond in the rough tight end is hard to find evident by last week's pick.

King is facing a Bills team that may or may not be trying to win games.The Panthers are mainly a running team, but if they get near the goal line, a play-action pass to King will be open.. Below is part six of this ever-expanding series. This is the final post. Enjoy.Edgar Renteria: We all know that the Tigers gave up Jair Jurrjens to bring Renteria to Detroit for the 2008 season. He was supposed to help put the Tigers over the top and back into the postseason. Things just didn’t work out. Renteria struggled mightily in his one season in Detroit and was gone at the end of the season and the Tigers had nothing to show for it. When he’s not sucking things up in the American League (the Red Sox had a similar experience with Renteria) Renteria is a five-time All-Star that has also won a couple of Gold Gloves. Things just didn’t work out in Detroit.Cody Ross: Ross made his big league debut on that awful 2003 Tigers team. He hit a home run but got only 19 at-bats with the club. Ross was traded the following April to the Dodgers for reliever Steve Colyer who amounted to nothing in Detroit. Ross has hit 46 home runs the last two years for the Marlins and plays decent defense in the outfield.Ruben Sierra: Sierra was once a feared slugger in the 1980s and early 1990s. However, he soon became a journeyman and was involved in trades involving the likes of Jose Canseco, Cecil Fielder, Danny Tartabull and Marcus Thames. Sierra came to Detroit in 1996 in the big Cecil Fielder deal. Sierra hit a pathetic .222 in his 46 games with the Tigers and was gone the following year. Sierra appeared in four All-Star games prior to his time in Detroit and led the league in slugging, RBI, and triples in 1989 with the Rangers.Al Simmons: Simmons is an all-time great and was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1953. He spent his best seasons with the Philadelphia Athletics in the 1920s and 1930s. Simmons retired with over 300 homers and put together a streak of 11 consecutive seasons with at least 100 RBI. Impressive. Simmons joined the Tigers in 1936 and hit .327 with 112 RBI. What’s puzzling is how the money worked out in his deals involving the Tigers. Back then players were commonly bought and sold and Simmons was no different. The Tigers bought him from the White Sox for $75,000 before the 1936 season and he was coming off a down year. He then went to Detroit and had a decent year and the Tigers responded by selling him to the Washington Senators for only $15,000.Matt Stairs: Stairs defined “Cup of Coffee” with his stint in Detroit in 2006. The Tigers got him after the waiver deadline in August, so Stairs was not eligible for postseason play. However, the Tigers needed some lefty pop down the stretch. Stairs played in only 14 games for the Tigers and hit two of his 259 career homers in a Tigers uniform.Sam Thompson: Thompson, like Simmons, is a Hall of Famer who spent only one season in Detroit for the Tigers. Thompson started his career in Detroit with the Detroit Wolverines of the National League. Thompson has seasons of 165 and 166 RBI, topped the 20 triples mark three times, and lead the league in home runs twice. When he retired he was second on the all-time home run list. His only season with the Tigers was his last season in the big leagues, 1906. He joined the Hall of Fame in 1974, over 50 years after his death.Ugueth Urbina: Urbina was a dominant closer before coming to Detroit. He wasn’t awful in Detroit, but his stay was brief. Urbina lead the NL in saves in 1999 with the Expos and was the closer for the Marlins 2003 championship team. Urbina signed a free agent deal with the Tigers prior to the 2004 season and saved 21 games that season. In 2005, Urbina was traded to the Phillies in a deal that brought Placido Polanco to Detroit. Urbina is currently serving a 14-year prison sentence in Venezuela on an attempted murder conviction.Todd Van Poppel: Van Poppel was labeled as a can’t miss prospect when he was drafted out of high school in 1990s by the Oakland Athletics. Except, Van Poppel did miss. He’s kind of like the Darko Milicic or Ryan Leaf of Major League Baseball. He hung around the big leagues for 11 years but retired with an ERA of 5.58 and a 40-52 record. He threw 36 innings for the Tigers in 1996 and posted an ERA of 11.39. It’s hard to stick around for 36 innings when you’re that bad. In fact, that season (he split time with the Tigers and Athletics) Van Poppel had an ERA of 9.06 in 99.1 innings. No one in the history of the game has matched that mark.Earl Webb: Webb is a bit of a baseball footmark. He didn’t debut until he was 27 years old and his career lasted only 650 games. However, Webb is a record holder. In 1931, while with the Boston Red Sox, Webb hit an amazing 67 doubles, a record that still stands. Webb played for the Tigers in 1932-33 and hit only 19 doubles.Lefty Williams: Williams was a World Series winner with the 1917 White Sox and suspended for life after the 1920 season when he was one of the best pitchers in alll of baseball. Williams was a member of the 1919 Black Sox team and he was integral in blowing the series. In 1919, Williams 23-11 and started 40 games and had a 2.64 ERA. However, in the World Series against the Reds, Williams went 0-3 in three starts with an ERA of 6.61. Interesting, right The following year he won 22 games but received a lifetime ban. Williams played in Detroit in 1913 and 1914 and went 1-4 in limited action. This article is also featured on http:// "Fight for position". After the huge amount of points given out at Bound For Glory there is a big group towards the top and another in the middle of the league. Bragging Rights doesn't have many matches which makes each prediction even more vital.
