And this week's best bets:

Rank Pick Vs Spd
1 NE @ NYJ +1.5
2 GB @ DET -3
3 TEN @ CIN +1
4 BAL @ HOU +4.5
5 NO @ WAS -1
6 PHI @ DAL +7
7 MIN v. IND +2
8 SD @ DEN -1.5
9 CHI @ CAR +3
10 OAK @ KC +4
11 BUF @ JAC +5.5
12 MIA @ ARI +6.5
13 TB v. ATL -7.5
14 SF @ SEA +7
15 CLE v. PIT +6.5
16 STL v. NYG +9

 

I love the NE pick, and I think there's a definite overreaction to Brady's (tragic—I am a Pats fan, after all) injury in Vegas. Not to mention the Jets BARELY beat last year's worst team.

I also love the GB pick, but I'm not in love with TEN. Kerry Collins is a little too cromagnum for my tastes, and I think Carson Palmer will be out to prove he's still got an ability to win, even with Senor Ocho Cinqo.

BAL is another good pick in my opinion, and as long as Flacco remains marginal, they should have a solid season ahead of them.

WAS is another team I just don't get, I think Jason Campbell is totally overrated, and Jim Zorn is totally confused. Big money has poured into PHI after the STL thrashing, but it'll be a tough contest in DAL.

I hate the MIN pick, and I think IND will crush them, but the stats do the picking, I just do the cringing.

Look for more commentary here and more articles on Bleacher Report to come.
