I am yet again going to try to make some predictions involving the NFL. Last week I got almost every single game wrong(pretty much everyone did considering there were 5 upsets), but I will try to do better

GB @ DET(1:00 PM)-Aaron Rodgers looked impressive in his first regular season start against the Vikings, but the Lions looked horrible against the team I thought was the worst team in the league...the Atlanta Falcon. The Packers are a pretty balanced team. A good passing offense and an improved rushing offense. The Lions haven't done anything but got worse. I wouldn't be down on the Lions TO MUCH if they would have kept it a close game against Atlanta but getting beat by 14 points against Atlanta isn't helping there chances very much. The Packers beat the Lions in this one.

Final Score
GB:28
DET:16

MVP:Aaron Rodger 22-36, 132 Passing Yards, 3 TDs


NYG @ STL(1:00 PM)-New York coming off of a very helpful victory and the Rams coming off of a dreadful game. The Giants a good talented team. The Rams..not so much. New Yorks defense will be a huge factor in this game. The G-Men take this game.

Final Score
NYG:38
STL:6

MVP:Justin Tuck 11 Tackles, 4 Sacks, 3 FF, 2 FR, 1 Fumble TD, 3 TFL


CHI @ CAR(1:00 PM)-Both of these teams coming off of upset victories. The Bears just (I hate to say it) destroying the Colts and the Panthers (Im happy to say) beating the Chargers on the last play of the game. I honestly believe the Bears beating the Colts wasn't the Bears owning it was the Colts playing a poor game, and having injuries to three of there best players (Joseph Addai, Dallas Clark, Jeff Saturday). The Chargers obviously played a pretty good game but Carolina still pulled it off...WITHOUT STEVE SMITH. Jake Delhomme looked very impressive last week, along with the whole entire Panthers offense. The Bears defense won't play as well as they did last week. Delhomme has a good game and leads the Panthers to victory once again.

Final Score
CHI:16
CAR:30

MVP:Jake Delhomme 27-39, 143 Passing Yards, 2 TDs


TEN @ CIN(1:00 PM)-Tennessee had a very upsetting injury last week with Vince Young injuring his kneee. Cincinnati just came off an upsetting lose against Baltimore. This week Tennessee will show everyone that they don't need Vince Young just like they did against Jacksonville and beat Cincinnati, only because there defense will have a very good game. Tennessee takes this one.

Final Score
TEN:21
CIN:10

MVP:Lendale White 14 Carries, 76 yds, 2 TDs, 2 Rec., 9 Rec. Yds


BUF @ JACK(1:00 PM)-Jacksonville coming off of an upsetting lose and Buffalo coming off of a very very convincing victory. Jacksonville will win this game only because of these 4 things
1.They have Maurice Jones-Drew
2.They have a good defense
3.They have David Garrard
4.There Pissed Off
Buffalo is a good team, but there not good enough to beat Jacksonville. Jacksonville beats Buffalo and improves to 1-1.

Final Score
BUF:14
JACK:31

MVP:David Garrard 16-24, 102 yds., 2 TDs, 4 Rushes, 18 Rushing yds., 1 Rush TD


OAK @ KC(1:00 PM)-Kansas City had a pretty good game last year almost pulling off the upset against New England, Oakland...not so much. Oakland absolutely got demolished against Denver who doesn't have much talent either. Neither of these teams have much talent but I see Kansas City winning this game. They won't destroy Oakland like Denver did last week but they will still come out with a W. Oakland is just a bad...ok horrible team. Larry Johnson has a big game here and leads Kansas City to there first victory.

Final Score
OAK:17
KC:27

MVP:Larry Johnson 14 Carries, 102 yds., 3 TDs


IND @ MIN(1:00 PM)-Both of these teams are coming off of week 1 losses. Minnesota @ Green Bay and Indianapolis at home against the Bears. The Vikings have the best Rushing Offense and the best Rushing Defense but the Worst Passing Offense and the Worst Passing Defense. The Colts have 7th Best Passing Defense and the 29th best Rushing Defense bu
