I look at the Ravens to continue their "winning streak". I will take Atlanta to bounce back against Carolina in a very important NFC South game. Buffalo is a dumpster fire, I think Rivers can manage a win. The big one this week, I will take Green Bay in a nail biter. Saints draw an easy detail and just outscore the Browns. Jets gotta be feeling pretty damn good knocking Detroit around. They need to nut up and take down the Dolphins, their East rivals who last year I would of said would be easier than Detroit, now I am not so sure.
Pittsburgh gets over their brain fart, and gets by KC. Philadelphia takes a dump on Tampa. Houston beats Tennessee's face uglier than their new uniforms. Colts are still bleh, so let's go with Washington who must be feeling pretty good now. I think Detroit will play a little bit better, they won't get shut out at least, but SanFran takes it at home.
Rams squash the Cardinals. Denver surprisingly goes 2-0 as everyone jumps on Chucky's case. New England gets passed the Jags. Dallas looked pretty bad against Carolina, Giants NEED this game badly. If they end up blowing another winnable game in the last seconds...and Seattle takes out Chicago in a game I will honestly probably fall asleep half way through.

Thursday September 13th
8:20pm EST
Baltimore @ Cincinnati - I like the RAVENS to continue their great play and overcome short rest with their superior coaching.
Sunday September 16th
1:00pm
Carolina @ Atlanta - FALCONS to bounce back in a divisional clash.
LA Chargers @ Buffalo - Whether Peterman or Allen, the Bills don't stand a chance with that offensive line against an angry defense eager to atone for their week 1 performance. CHARGERS win.
Minnesota @ Green Bay - there's noise that Rodgers won't play; I think he will and takes the PACKERS to a W.
Cleveland @ New Orleans - Browns are scrappy but won't do what the Bucs did in beating NO at the Superdome; SAINTS will correct their course.
Miami @ NY Jets - JETS are flying after that road win.
Kansas City @ Pittsburgh - CHIEFS win as the Mahomes/Hill combo prolongs Pittsburgh's bad start to the season.
Philadelphia @ Tampa Bay - I have a sneaky feeling that the Fitzmagic continues and the BUCCANEERS pull out the W over the defending champs.
Houston @ Tennessee - Titans are battling key injuries already; TEXANS get on the board with a W.
Indianapolis @ Washington - Luck faces a tougher secondary on the road. I wouldn't be surprised if the Colts let another 4th quarter lead slip away. REDSKINS look good early on and unfortunately win.
4:05pm
Arizona @ LA Rams - RAMS have the talent to beat pretty much any team. Their offense will be even better at home.
Detroit @ San Francisco - Shanahan/Garoppolo carve up Matt Patricia's shoddy defense. 49ERS win.
4:25pm
Oakland @ Denver - Von Miller and co wreak havoc on Derek Carr, and the BRONCOS go up 2-0.
New England @ Jacksonville - PATRIOTS. No Fournette means the Jags are seriously short on weapons with which to beat a terribly tricky foe. Brady will do enough to solve the Jax defense.
8:20pm
NY Giants @ Dallas - Saquon vs Zeke. GIANTS take it.
Monday September 17th
8:15pm
Seattle @ Chicago - Mack will run riot again and Chicago's revamped offense shines at home. BEARS win on MNF.

That slate feels earlier than usual for most teams to get settled in for the season. I don't sense a ton of mystery to this season, other than the eventual weird flips like Bucs over Saints. I'm picking the Bucs to have a letdown against the champs for example, but can't be shocked either way.

That’s two weeks in a row. Your Eagles fan membership has been revoked, but that’s ok since you’ve still got the Redskins, Cowboys, Giants, Lions, and Browns to root for. |

Now it's all over ESPN that Greg Olsen broke his foot, the same foot he broke last year, in the game against Dallas and they are calling him month to month. Sounds like they would be lucky if he made it back by Thanksgiving.

Watching ESPN right now an they're doing a piece on Rodgers right now - he's 'Probable'.

Long work week, too tired for analysis. I've gone back and forth on at least half of these games. Hopefully no ties this week.

For week one, did you consider a pick for the Steelers and for the Browns both wins?

I got to wait until I heard what the status is of Aaron Rodgers' knee before I do my picks. Heard we might hear something at the earliest tonight if AR12's agent or a GB trainer leak the info to an Adam Schefter type person. Otherwise likely hear something tomorrow afternoon. Leaning towards picking the Vikings even if Rodgers does play but if Rodgers knee isn't THAT bad I might just put in the Packers and AR12 going for the revenge game.

I'm also having second thoughts about that situation. May change my pick. We've seen that the Packers are nothing without Rodgers, and even if he plays, he'll be an immobile sitting duck against a very nasty defense. |
