NFL Picks

WEEK 2

Thursday, September 13

Chicago at Green Bay, 8:20

I can’t do the Saturday previews anymore because the Thursday games are already completed. I picked the Packers, because of Lambeau, and because I thought the Bears were overrated, but yeah, you know.

Sunday, September 16

Tampa Bay at NY Giants, 1:00

I know the Panthers are a suspect squad but are the Bucs actually good? They seem like a team that has the fire power to tear up the secondary just like the Cowboys did. Also, the major story is that the Giants don’t win at home as they should. My feeling all year is that the Giants were going to let some people down this year and that the NFC East would be a 3 team race. Tampa.

New Orleans at Carolina, 1:00

The Saints got embarrassed last week. It won’t happen again. New Orleans

Arizona at New England, 1:00

West coast team going East for a 1 o’clock game. And one team is vastly superior in every way. New England

Minnesota at Indianapolis, 1:00

I think the Colts are a bad team for certain. They’ve been terrible against the run and the other team has AP. As much as I would like Luck to win this game at home… Minnesota

Baltimore at Philadelphia, 1:00

I do think that Vick will be better. I also think that the Ravens will be a monster this week.  Maybe this Philly team is better than the one that was manhandled by the Browns. Baltimore.

Kansas City at Buffalo, 1:00

I can’t get rid of the fact that they gave 48 points to the Jets.  Kansas City

Cleveland at Cincinnati, 1:00

I’m not betting on the browns to win anything anytime soon.  Cincinatti.

Houston at Jacksonville, 1:00

Houston. Division rival.

Dallas at Seattle, 4:05

This game has been keeping me up at night. On one hand, the Cowboys are a better team on paper. Russell Wilson couldn’t put up 200 pass yards against the Cards, why would they be relevant against the Cowboys and DWARE. On the other hand. Seattle, and Century Link field. They don’t lose there. And for the 50 millionth time, Romo in Seattle. Jittery QB + Insane Crowd noise. Dallas

Washington at St. Louis, 4:05

Another potential letdown game for a division rival. Yes, the Rams are bad. But this is the type of game the Redskins lose, right? St. Louis.

NY Jets at Pittsburgh, 4:15

The Jets are supremely overhyped and they aren’t that good on offense. On the other hand. Big Ben continues to get sacked often and the Jets only have blitzes. Sounds like a week of “Should Tebow be the starting QB” nonsense.  Pittsburgh.

Tennessee at San Diego, 4:15

I hate the NFL for this game. Who are the Titans anyway? A run-first team with no decent running backs. How are things this bad for Chris Johnson. Why is he on my fantasy team (come on, you know you care)? San Diego.

Oakland at Miami, 4:15

Because Miami is bad. And all of the Oakland players learned the snap counts from Hard Knocks. Oakland.

Detroit at San Francisco, 8:20

After the shellacking of Green Bay, I’m assuming that the 49ers are the best team in the NFL until absolutely proven otherwise. 49ers

Monday, September 17

Denver at Atlanta, 8:30

Part Two of AFC West vs. Atlanta. Same result. Atlanta.
