What did I told you Guys I hate Week 1 I barely survived last week finishing with a 56% overall record but a dismissal 7-9 against the spread; the only bright spot 4 - 2 on my hot picks.
So we finally have a game that counts to base our opinions of the teams for future weeks; and doesnt seem that every team was dealt with a major injury last week? four qb's down twenty eight to go type of week WOW.
I asked Belichick for the video I told him that since I did so bad last week I needed the help more than him.... If I keep up this thing I might be taking suggestions out of Peter Kings weekly picks I hope I don't sink so low
on with the picks..
Indianapolis at Tennessee 7 Ovr/Und 46
This is becoming a real division rivalry last year both took one home but they were pretty close matches, if it the line were for more than seven points I would go with Tennessee, but there's a reason I won't Bob Sander's you guys saw how much difference he makes on that defense last week, he didn't play in both of last years games, if that defense made insignificant the duo of Bush/McCalister how do you think Brown/White will do.
Straight: Ind
Spread: Ind
Ovr/Und: Und
Green Bay at New York Giants -1 Ovr/Und 37.5
I tried to extend my deadline the most I could to see if we would had any more news about the Qb's this week but until now everything is uncertain. it don't matter Giant's will be without three starters thxs to the cowboys even if Eli plays he won't be 100% vs a good young and fast GB defense go with the away team.
Straight: GB
Spread: GB
Ovr/Und:OVR
Cincinnati at Cleveland 7 Ovr/Und 41.5
Cleveland is a complete mess that franchise is a joke, Cincinnati looked good against a tough Baltimore defense can't believe the line is so low.
Straight: Cin
Spread: Cin
Ovr/Und: Over
Houston at Carolina -6.5 Ovr/Und 37.5
Carolina looked like the team of two years ago finally showed some defense, I'm having trouble because I liked what both teams showed in the first week I'll go with the home team in a close match
Straight: Car
Spread: Hou
Ovr/Und: Ovr
New Orleans at Tampa Bay 3 Ovr/Und 42
Can I change my surprise team of 2007 after one week? poor Tampa does saints folks are coming home angry watch out.
Straight: NO
Spread: NO
Ovr/Und: Und
Buffalo at Pittsburgh -9.5 Ovr/Und 38
What a tough week for Bills fans not only because of Everett life threatening injury but losing in the final seconds to a good team tough loss to swallow. Finally Roethlisberger played like his SB season now how much was him and how much was a bad Cleveland's team. I still don't trust J.P to beat a good team.
Straight: Pit
Spread: Pit
Ovr/Und:OVR
Atlanta at Jacksonville -10 Ovr/Und 34.5
I'm having trouble with the line of this game it just to high for a team that surrender 285 rushing yards the previous week and the offense only could come out with ten points.
Straight: Jax
Spread: Atl
Ovr/Und: Ovr
San Fransisco at St Louis -3 Ovr/Und 44.5
Both teams disappoint me last week even if San Francisco won that game for a team with so much hype they just didn't show it, the rookie LB is a bright spot, but Smith looked like he went back to steps in his progress. I believe Stl didn't show their full potential last week and will take advantage this week.
Straight: Stl
Spread: Stl
Ovr/Und: Und
Minnesota at Detroit -3 Ovr/Und 42.5
Minnesota can't depend each week of their defense scoring touchdowns to win games, Detroit is showing it's potential at offense only if their defense can play better this could be a team that could sneak in the playoffs
Straight: Det
Spread: Det
Ovr/Und: Over
Seattle at Arizona 3 Ovr/Und 44
Seattle it's showing they're still the team to beat in the West. Leinart looked off on national Tv overthrowing wr but it looks like Arizona finally has a running game if they fix the little things they could become better later on
Straight: Sea
Spread: Sea
Ovr/Und: Und
Dallas at Miami 3.5 Ovr/Und 40
Even if it was a close game against Was Miami showed what we thought good defense but zero offense they just don't have weapons, and Dallas did the same, showed their potential in offense but the same problems at defense and the loss of Ferguson could become a bigger problem this year but not this week.
Straight: Dallas
Spread: Dallas
Ovr/Und: Ovr
Kansas City at Chicago -12 Ovr/Und 34.5
If you play fantasy this will be the week to play Rex Grossman remember last year some of his 3 td's performances with a bad Kansas team he should shine
Straight: CHI
Spread: CHI
Ovr/Und: Ovr
New York Jets at Baltimore -11 Ovr/Und 33.5
If Pennington had trouble against New England defense wait until he sees Baltimore's both Qb's are expected to start but I didn't like what I saw of Baltimore's offense to justify the spread.
Straight: Bal
Spread: NYJ
Ovr/Und: Under
Oakland at Denver -9.5 Ovr/Und 39
Good moral win last week that should carry on to this Oakland looked better that I expected but won't match up against a good Denver defense
Straight: Den
Spread: Den
Ovr/Und: Over
San Diego at New England -4 Ovr/Und 47
Goodell dropped the ball with his ruling and kept the notion that everyone has that New England receives special treatment, Belichick should been suspended that will show other teams how serious the league is.... Well a great game that has been tainted by all the reports will still see a great game but Brady will take the win.
Straight: NE
Spread: NE
Ovr/Und: Over
Washington at Philadelphia -7 Ovr/Und 40
UPSET OF THE WEEK
McNabb looked slow, and not comfortable I think it was wishful thinking to believe he could be ready this early, Washington offense looked good specially the running game, but they had trouble getting in to the endzone they need to put the ball on their superstars Moss and Coley were almost a no show last week.
I can't believe I've picked you guys twice.... you should put a warning label at the home page "Hanging around here might affect your judgment" hahaha... naaah I just call it as I see it.
Straight: Was
Spread: Was
Ovr/Und: Und
