Don's Crystal Ball Week 3 League Picks
Here's my pick for tonight's game, the rest will be up Saturday at the latest.
New York Giants at Carolina Panthers 1.5 Ovr/Und 52 UPSET OF THE WEEK This is pretty simple. The Giants have had back-to-back games when they've been dominated for most of the game, just to try to make a comeback in the end. In week one it did not work, but they managed to achieve it the following week. They have big problems with their secondary, and they will be without two of their premier players: Hakeem Nicks and Ahmad Bradshaw. The Panthers are coming from a victory against the division rival Saints. It's a short week, the Giants have key injuries, they have trouble getting into a roll early in games, and the Panthers have reestablished their running game. I'll take the home team. Straight: CAR Spread: CAR Ovr/Und: UND |

Re: Don's Crystal Ball Week 3 League Picks
I know It's been a brutal two week start this year, but I'm not the only one. Taking my own league as an example out of 36 members only 2 are over 60%. It's been a weird and brutal start.

Re: Don's Crystal Ball Week 3 League Picks
I don't get why people lambast this guy. He consistently puts out his picks, and does reasonable research. I get he's a dallas fan, but he loves football (i gather) like we do, and sparks discussion on some games. Just sayin' if you don't want to read it, don't open the thread. Not really a hard concept.

Back to the thread topic, I saw a stat after tonight's game that after two weeks, 6 teams were 2-0, 6 teams were 0-2, and the rest of the teams were 1-1. I wonder if we're going to have an up and down season for many teams. Right now, the only contender that I see is San Franscisco, and even that might change. Tough year for picks.

I agree right now only SF, and maybe Houston, seem like sure bets, but I am guessing that by October teams will start shaking out more clearly. |

When we play Dallas, he and the other Cowpatty fans show up and talk all kinds of trash leading up to the game and disappear for weeks after we whip their butts, which we've managed to do many times no matter how bad our team has been. Also, he's a Dallas fan on a Redskin board. If you don't feel the urge to bash him, I have to question your love for the team. It's just natural. If I were stupid enough to show up on Jerrah's forum with a Redskins avatar, I'd expect to be treated like garbage from their fans. We're a LOT more respectful than they are...we still treat him better than we'd be treated if we went to his board.

no, just bashing for the sake of bashing gets as old as his threads...
