Hey there everyone.  We have only about an hour before the early games begin, so here is a brief preview of who I am expecting to win.

Miami 17 @ Atlanta 27 (Atlanta has too much offensively for Miami to stop)

Kansas City 3 @ Baltimore 23 (No Cassel, no win, wait, no touchdowns for KC, Ravens D all the way)

Philadelphia 27 @ Carolina 20 (McNabb has lots of new weapons that will be tough for the Panthers defense to stop.  DeAngelo Williams and Steve Smith will keep the Panthers in it)

Denver 13 @ Cincinnati 24 (A healthy Carson Palmer will be too much for a sorry Bronco D) 

Minnesota 34 @ Cleveland 10 (Game 1 of the Viking Favre era begins, with an easy W)

New York Jets 20 @ Houston 27 (The Texans need to get off on a fast start this season.  They have the offensive firepower to do it, and it will start this week against the Jets)

Jacksonville 20 @ Indianapolis 24 (The Jags always play the Colts tough, but the Colts know they must get off to a fast start this season to hold off the Titans and Texans)

Detroit 17 @ New Orleans 38 (Drew Brees has to be licking his chops going against this D)

Dallas 24 @ Tampa Bay 10 (Storms are in the forecast, but the big storms are going to come from Jason Witten and Marion Barber with big plays all day)

San Francisco 17 @ Arizona 31 (San Fran plays the Cardinals tough, but Fitzgerald and Warner will make sure that they can't get that close)

Washington 13 @ New York Giants 24 (The Redskins D will keep them in the game, but in the end Brandon Jacobs and Eli Manning will be too much)

St. Louis 13 @ Seattle 27 (Both teams have new coaches and only one can win, sorry Steve)

Chicago 20 @ Green Bay 27 (Both teams have prolific QBs.  But the talent surrounding Aaron Rodgers is better)

New England 34 @ Buffalo 17 (Welcome back Brady, the rest of the league may not be wishing that after they see him in this game)

San Diego 31 @ Oakland 13 (L.T. and Philip Rivers will lead a prolific offense against (pause) the Raiders.  Enough said)

That's all I have for today.  Enjoy the games everybody.

Heh, good call on the Cinci-Denver game. Obviously Palmer & Co looked WEAK against the tough Bronco D all day long---except for the final drive when Denver was in prevent. You made the mistake of underestimating how big of losers the Bungles really are. You also got caught up in the pre-season hype about the "vastly improved Texans."

Overall not a bad job so far, though----we'll see how he later games go.

I agree. I look a little stupid after week one with a couple of picks (you mentioned them). I still can't believe the ending to the Broncos-Bengals game. That play could have happened only to the Bengals.
