NFL Week 2: Pickin on the NFL
My week 1 picks were absolutely horrible! I was 8-8 straight up and 4-11-1 against the spread. I did hit my survivor lock of the week (CHI) and my upset special (WAS). I can only expect to be better this week, here goes.
PIT @ TEN-5 TEN 20 PIT 14
I can’t see a Dennis Dixon led team going into the Titan’s house and winning 2 in a row.
BAL-1 @ CIN CIN 20 BAL 17
I just flipped my pick in this game, so I’m not feeling to good about this pick. Cincy went 6-0 in the division last year and it would be tough for the Ravens to win two road games in a row against playoff caliber teams.
PHI-7 @ DET PHI 24 DET 16
Michael Vick is starting his 1st game in nearly 4 years and he’ll be the wild card but it is the Lions, so…
ARI @ ATL-7.5 ATL 26 ARI 20
I always like the home team when the visiting team is traveling coast to coast add the fact that Derek Anderson is not good and you have a Falcons victory.
MIA @ MIN-5.5 MIN 27 MIA 17
Bill Parcel’s didn’t leave the Dolphins in better shape than he found them…and they sucked when he got control of them.
KCC @ CLE-1 KCC 21 CLE 14 (Upset Special)
The Chiefs impressed me more than any other team in week 1, I know it’s early but this may a team that surprises a lot of people.
TBB @ CAR-3 CAR 23 TBB 19
The Bucs will get a heavy dose of the running game which is good because Matt Moore isn’t effective at executing a forward pass.
BUF @ GB -13.5 GB 26 BUF 10 (Survivor lock of the Week)
This is easy Packers = good, Bills = bad.
CHI @ DAL-9 DAL 27 CHI 17
I need Felix Jones to step for me in this game for fantasy purposes, please and thank you Jason Garret.
SEA @ DEN-3 DEN 23 SEA 17
I just hate the Seahawks and their coach…that is all.
STL @ OAK-3 OAK 20 STL 16
Do I have to pick one of these teams? Yuck.
JAC @ SDC-8 SDC 27 JAC 20
The Chargers game is blacked out in SD, SD fans are blacked out because Norv Turner is their coach.
NEP-3 @ NYJ NEP 24 NYJ 17
The Jest offense is not good, on a related note the Patriots offense is.
HOU-1 @ WAS WAS 23 HOU 21
Another game where I flipped my pick at the last second. Both teams know each other well so I’m going to go with Mike Shanahan having a better game plan than Gary Kubiak.
NYG @ IND -5 IND 27 NYG 21
No way Peyton Manning loses 2 in a row.
NOS-6 @ SFF NOS 27 SFF 17
The 49er’s looked horrible in week 1 and things are going to get worse before they get better.
Cheers and Hail
