NFL Week #2

Go Packers...beat down the Bengals.

As for the Steelers.......easy win in Chicago. Jay Cutler will spend more time on his back than Big Ben will.

This is what happened when we played the Bears in 2005...

I'm going to take Pittsburgh in a fairly easy win over Chicago. Sure, Troy being out stings quite a bit, but I still think the Steeler D will give Cutler freaking NIGHTMARES!! I hope to see that cryarss on his back as often as possible! :D

I hope you're right. Another 4-Int show by Cutler would be sweet. Meanwhile, I'm hoping Parker can do a bit better than 13 carries for 19 yds....
 
You should keep your opinions on the Falcons to yourself considering the past year you've put your foot in your mouth most of the time. ;)

Just pointing out what could happen my friend. It's early yet, and while we are both fans of our team, we don't know how they will fare against rivals. Carolina will be pissed this week after looking so bad last week, and I'm still not convinced that Atlanta is "all that and a bag of chips" yet. They shut down Steve Smith, maybe they do have a secondary after all...until they do, I ain't seein' it.

;)
 
OK, NOW we can start talkin' about week 2...

Houston @ Tennessee: Tennessee has shown they have a pretty stout D, Houston has some...issues...on offense....yeah, home team here - Houston 13 Tennessee 24

Arizona @ Jacksonville: Jax pushed a very good Colts team to the wall, Arizona looked iffy against a maybe good maybe not so good 49er's team. In Jax, home team again, but close - Arizona 23 Jax 27

Oakland @ KC: Man, Oakland surprised me last night...or did San Diego just play down to their competition? :hmm: Tough call, KC played hard for 3 quarters against the Ravens. I'm goin' with SD being "off" last night - Oakland 20 KC 24

Cincinnati @ Green Bay: Green Bay backed into a win Sunday night, Cincinnati rolled over and died to lose Sunday afternoon. Cincy is definitely not winning here, GB will wake up and play football - Cincinnati 13 GB 28

Minnesota @ Detroit: Minnesota has the most dangerous RB in the last decade, AP is a monster. If Farve doesn't go all "Farve", Detroit doesn't get win #1 just yet, but they will be in this one - Minnesota 24 Detroit 20

St Louis @ Washington: Washington is pissed at losing to the Giants, St Louis is still trying to figure out how to tie their shoelaces - St Louis 10 Washington 31

NE @ NY Jets: NE won because of a stupid mistake last night, all you Patsy honks can argue 'til you're blue in the face, and that fact won't go away. Yes, they took advantage of it, and yes they deserved the win. Question is, will the Jets make a stupid mistake? No, they won't - NE 20 Jets 27

Carolina @ Atlanta: Already picked it earlier in the thread. Not changing the pick. Atlanta ain't all that good on either side of the ball, Carolina will have some vinegar in their attitude after getting squished like a bug at home, and Delhomme will remember which jerseys are his team this week. Not a blowout, but - Carolina 24 Atlanta 17

TB @ Buffalo: Jauron benches his KO returner for being a moron, they take their frustration out on this season's patsy team - TB 13 Buffalo 31

Seattle @ SF: Both teams were winners, but Seattle's win was a gift (i.e. St Louis SUCKS, this year's Lions). Tough game, home team wins - Seattle 21 SF 24

Baltimore @ SD: Both teams were winners again, SD squeaked a win out against the other Lions for this season, Baltimore took 3 quarters to wake up. Road team win - Baltimore 27 SD 17

Pittsburgh @ Chicago: This is a game? Seriously? Cutler looks like someone gave him roofies and spun him in a circle 20 times against a suspect GB defense, imagine what the Steelers will do to him...and the Bears D is in trouble - Pittsburgh 34 Chicago 10

Cleveland @ Denver: Denver wins on a pure luck play, Browns go toe-to-toe with Minnesota for about a half then fold like a tent. Neither team is going far this year, but I'm guessing on Denver luck again - Cleveland 20 Denver 24

NY Giants @ Dallas: Dallas lays an egg in the regular season home opener in their fancy billion dollar coffin. Giants are NOT TB - Giants 27 Dallas 17

Indianapolis @ Miami: Indy wasn't exactly impressive last week, Miami was practically hopeless. Jax is better than everyone thinks, Atlanta isn't. Indy is too much for the 'Phins - Indy 35 'Phins 13

My game...

NO @ Philly: Philly jumped all over a hapless and hopeless Carolina team, McNabb is a tough dude that I respect, but if he plays he'll be a liability, and if he doesn't they put Kolb on the field. This ain't the aints, it's the Saints, get used to it. :smug: Brees and company will hang some points on a Philly defense with some holes in it (they will REALLY miss Brian Dawkins Sunday...REALLY MISS HIM...), and the Saints D is better than everyone thinks (you don't actually think they shown everyone what they have in their trick bag do you? They had 5 preseason games!), but will still give up some points, mostly because the special teams play is still not up to snuff and they will give the short field to the Eagles a couple of times - NO 38 Philly 24
