Bold and Very Un-Educated Picks For Week One By an Average Joe

My Picks for week One.        

Thursday

Minnesota at New Orleans - Revenge game for Minnesota, and they get it. Minnesota wins.

Sunday

Carolina at NY Giants - Giants start out strong against a rebuilding Panthers team. Giants win.

Atlanta at Pittsburgh - The Steelers keep it close with a strong defense and a back to basics run game, but it isn’t enough to hold off the offense of the falcons.  Falcons win.

Cleveland at Tampa bay - Don’t watch this game. Cleveland wins in a low scoring affair.

Denver at Jacksonville - Denver has too good of a defense to loose this game, despite Jones Drew.

Indianapolis at Houston - This is the year that Houston beats the Colts.

Miami at Buffalo - Miami dominates this game on both sides of the ball, the Bills doesn’t make it tough to do. Miami wins easy

Detroit at Chicago - I want to pick Detroit, but I can’t do it just yet. But they keep it close and show promise.

Oakland at Tennessee - Upset pick of the week. Oakland starts to show some life starting in week one.

Cincinnati at New England - Cincinnati has the defense and on paper to win this game, but I don’t buy into Marvin Lewis. Cincinnati gets to conservative and the pats come back in the 4^th quarter to win.

Arizona at St Lois - Poor Stephen Jackson, it is tough to be on the worst team in the league. Arizona wins.

San Francisco at Seattle - Welcome back to the NFL Pete Carroll. The Niner’s dominated defense and up coming offense has no problem winning here.

Green Bay at Philadelphia - The packers seems to be the sexy pick to make it to the super bowl. I think they continue the talk in week 1 when they beat my Eagles. Andy Reid always seems to start out slow.

Dallas at Washington - I think Dallas is over rated this year. A Stout defense and a strong run game keeps it close, Washington gets there first win with Mcnabb at the helm.

Monday

Baltimore at NY Jets. - Both teams have made some upgrades this year, but the Ravens pay’s off sooner as they beat the Jets in New York

San Diego at Kansas City - Kansas City’s Defense looks to be heading in the right defense, but the offense unfortunately still needs to score. San Diego wins this one.
