Please quote or copy and paste...and then boldface the winner of that weeks games by highlighting and then hitting "ctrl" and "b" at the same time:


Thu, Sep 09
MIN @ NO
Sun, Sep 12
DEN @ JAC
OAK @ TEN
CIN @ NE
CLE @ TB
IND @ HOU
DET @ CHI
ATL @ PIT
MIA @ BUF
CAR @ NYG
GB @ PHI
ARI @ STL
SF @ SEA
DAL @ WAS
Mon, Sep 13
BAL @ NYJ
SD @ KC

My picks:


Thu, Sep 09
MIN @ NO - Farve coming into the season late will hurt them here.
Sun, Sep 12
DEN @ JAC - the broncos might have had a shot at home.
OAK @ TEN - What is sadly become the norm for the raiders...another season of futility.
CIN @ NE - Hard game to call...I give the advantage to the bengals early in the season, but then watch them breakdown as the season progresses and egos clash.
CLE @ TB - I love lamp?
IND @ HOU - I am SO tempted to pick the texans here...they ALWAYS give indy trouble, at home or on the road.
DET @ CHI - Should be interesting to see how much, if any, the packers divisional foes improved.
ATL @ PIT - If (*insert a not very witty and tasteless name for a dumbass here*) was suiting up, PIT would be an easy pick. The improving falcons get a road win here.
MIA @ BUF - Hate early rival games when the favored team is on the road...but MIA should pull off the victory.
CAR @ NYG - Going to be a long season for both teams imo, but figuratively longer for CAR.
GB @ PHI - Hard to say in the NFL...does the presence of a new QB throw us for a loop and get them more pts than they'd otherwise get because we don't yet know what trips him up or his tendecies? Or does the not-quite-meshed new QB make some fatal mistakes and looks a little lost?
ARI @ STL - going against the grain for this mild upset.
SF @ SEA - I like turtles!
DAL @ WAS - *ugh*
Mon, Sep 13
BAL @ NYJ - this will be a hard fought game...and imo, a mild upset if the jets win.
SD @ KC - SD should have this one easily.

MIN @ NO -this game will be much like that NFC champ. game
Sun, Sep 12
DEN @ JAC-Jac struggled last year and may have made moves to get worse this year.
OAK @ TEN -Johnson (w/ new contract in hand) repeats last season.
CIN @ NE
CLE @ TB
IND @ HOU -i think Hou finally comes through against Manning
DET @ CHI
ATL @ PIT -Even w/ a QB that's practically a rookie. Pit has a D that's so much better it makes up for it.
MIA @ BUF
CAR @ NYG
GB @ PHI
ARI @ STL -to many ?'s on offence for ARI. I think Bradford comes out and gets W #1
SF @ SEA -SF wins the west easliy
DAL @ WAS

I'm going for some early upsets. I always find it hard to guess on the opening week of the season.
