Up two

Chicago over Detroit
Bengals over the Browns
Houston over Oakland
Colts over Seahawks
Tennessee over Jacksonville
Giants over Chiefs
Ravens over New England (I can't believe I am doing this.. I hope Welker doesn't play)
Washington over Tampa Bay
Buffalo over Miami
Saints over NYJ
Denver over Dallas (when in doubt, choose your favourite team. That's what I always say. But seriously, Champ will take Williams out of it, and Newman will do the same with Marshall. I'll take our chances with Witten, because they wont be able to stop the Bronco run game. And the crowd tips it)
SF over STL
Steelers over Chargers
Vikings over Green Bay (what a game that'll be...)
Josh up 2 and Patrick reverts to old-school ways of picking.
Week 4!

Chicago over Detroit

Cincy over Cleveland

Houston over Oakland

Indy over Seattle

Tennessee over Jacksonville
The Titans have had a harsh schedule, and are losing close ones. They are better than the Jags.

NYGiants over Kansas City

Baltimore over New England
Okay, I know I said I was going old school, but come one. The Ravens are tearing it up.

Washington over Tampa
The only thing that will make this interesting is if you pick the Bucs.

Buffalo over Miami

New Orleans over NYJets
This one should be fun, but I think the Saints are too good at home.

Dallas over Denver
Sorry, buddy. If it helps, I'll cheer for the Broncos.

San Fran over St. Louis

Pittsburgh over San Diego
Here is my old school pick. The Chargers are not consistant enough, and the Steelers have a thing or two to prove.

Minnesota over Green Bay
Fuck. Yeah. So excited for this one.

Week 3 and back to square 1. A couple of dartboard picks this week, too.

Baltimore over Cleveland

Washington over Detroit

Houston over Jacksonville

Atlanta over New England
I switched this after I saw the New England injury report.

Green Bay over St. Louis
I don't even know who is starting QB for the Rams, but I'm cheering for him!

NYGiants over Tampa

NYJets over Tennessee
Switched this one a couple times, but, when it came down to it, I would rather have the Jets if it is up for grabs.

Philly over Kansas City

Minnesota over San Fran
This is where we learn if we have a real team here.

New Orleans over Buffalo

Chicago over Seattle
Come on, Hasselbeck, step up.

Pittsburgh over Cincy
Lots of experts have this going the other way, but I just think the Steelers won't lose back-to-back.

Denver over Oakland
I guess 3-0 is the same no matter who you beat, right?

San Diego over Miami

Arizona over Indianapolis
Home team gets the nod. Should be fun to watch!

Dallas over Carolina
Last year this one would have been fun.

Three this week. After one week, Josh is up one. This week:

Patrick's Seahawks against Josh's 49ers.
Patrick's Cardinals against Josh's Jaguars.
Patrick's Bills against Josh's Bucs.

Yeah, i picked the Eagles and Cowboys too, but I wish one of those games counted. They'd be worth it. I also considered Carolina very closely.

Week 2! Exciting. Josh +1. (Boo Cutler. Save your gaks for AFC teams.)

So!

Atlanta over Carolina
With Carolina already with more home losses than last year, it feels like this is not their year.

Minnesota over Detroit
Yeeeah.

Green Bay over Cincy
Come on, Palmer, please prove me wrong.

Arizona over Jacksonville
I think they bounce back. Jacksonville pushed Indy, but I don't think they're a real threat.

Oakland over Kansas City
They both looked impressive in losses and choked late, but I thought the Raiders looked better.

New England over NY Jets
The Patriots win until proven otherwise.

Philly over New Orleans
I wish I was in your head for this one. Both picks make me nervous, but the Eagles.... The Eagles.

Tennessee over Houston
The Texans looked awful last week. They are still a bad team until they prove otherwise.

Washington over St. Louis
Yaaawn.

Buffalo over Tampa Bay
Yaawn.

Seattle over San Fransisco
Should be a good one, but 34-0? 34-0.

Pittsburgh over Chicago
Chicago sucks!

Denver over Cleveland
Just for you, buddy.

Baltimore over San Diego
I likem dem Ravens.

Dallas over NY Giants
Dallas takes this division, so they must win this one. Right?

Indianpolis over Miami
Is Miami reverting? They might be.

Here it goes! I think there will be a lot this week.

Carolina at Atlanta
I like the Panthers, but not on the road with Delhomme throwing that many picks. I suspect we'll differ on this pick. My argument is this: last year, these teams were a combined 15-1 at home, and 8-8 on the road. I'll take the home side. (fun fact: the only regular season home loss was suffered by Atlanta, to Denver).

Minnesota at Detroit
Vikings. Easy.

Cincinatti at Green Bay
If Denver can beat them... if we were betting against the spread, however, i would take Cincinatti.

Arizona at Jacksonville
Tough call. I may get burned on this. But i like Jones-Drew against that defence, and Mathis against Fitzgerald. (I can't believe i just wrote that).

Oakland at Kansas City
I like what Seymour has done, what McFadden will do to that O-line, and think that Cassel won't be 100 per cent.

New England at New York Jets
This is a tough one. I hope Rex Ryan chokes.

New Orleans at the Eagles
No McNabb is tough. I had this pencilled in for him, but if he's not starting, I've got to reconsider. It boils down to this: Eagles > Saints. But are Kolb's Eagles > Brees's Saints? I still think they are. The Saints were 2-6 on the road last year, and gave up 27 points to Detroit last week. Philly will pull it out.

Houston at Tennessee
The Titans are still the much better team. At least, I think.

St. Louis at Washington
Moving on...

Tampa at Buffalo
Leftwich is looking good for them.

Seattle at San Francisco
Call me crazy, but I think the 49er 3-4 will terrorize Hasselbeck.

Pittsburgh at Chicago
Steelers.

Cleveland at Denver
Very few teams will lose to Denver. The Browns may be one of them

Baltimore at San Diego
Tough. I love the Ravens though.

Giants at Cowboys
I'll take Romo, Ware and the new punt-blocking TV at home.

Indianapolis at Miami
Peyton, even without Marvin or Anthony.

Looks like we'll be watching Lambeau. Only one this week. Does it pain you to cheer "Go Cutler"?

PAAAAAACKKKKKKKKKERRRRSSSS
Josh's week 1 picks

Pittsburgh over Tennessee (as texted)
Atlanta over Miami
Baltimore over Kansas City
Philadelphia over Carolina (this was the one I debated for the longest)
Cincinatti over Denver (Ugh)
Vikings over Cleveland
Houston over New York Jets
Indianapolis over Jacksonville
Saints over Lions
Dallas over Tampa Bay
Cardinals over San Francisco (almost went other way on this... will be close)
NY Giants over Washington
Seattle over St. Louis
Green Bay over Chicago (Fuck you Cutler)
Patriots over Bills
Chargers over Raiders
