Pitt pick over Baltimore
- Baltimore has issues on their offensive line and Pitt's receiving corps has looked explosive in the preseason. Baltimore did get Lee Evans, but Flacco lost two security blankets in Heap and Mason and that won't bode well for them against Pitt's D in week 1.
Buffalo +5 over KC
- I like Buffalo's D this season. Williams and Dareus on the D-line and secondary now healthy is solid. I'm a big fan of Fitzpatrick and I think he makes the difference against a KC team that has trouble passing the ball.
Houston -9 over Indy
- Houston won't take pity on the Colts, who go from a very good team to a very bad one without Peyton.
Philly -4.5 over St. Louis
- Not sure St. Louis' D has the horses to stop Vick and DJack. Don't see their receivers getting open down the field, which should allow Philly to contain them on D. Don't see how they stay in the game, although many are calling for an upset. I just don't see it.
Ten pick over Jax
Like Hasselbeck and the Titans to win their division this year. Jax is not a very good team at all.
San Diego -8.5 over Minny
McNabb is terrible. I don't see SD taking any chances of having a poor start to the season. Rivers will keep the Vikings at arm's length.
SD/Minny over 42.5
See the Chargers putting up a lot of points and AP will run hard and score a few TD. This number seems too low.
Washington +3 over Ny Giants
Like the Redskins as a sleeper this year. Giants have a handful of key injuries on defence and the Redskins have a very solid D. That should be the difference here.
Seattle +5.5 over SF
- Seattle has the far superior team IMO besides Tarvaris of course, but is Alex Smith really that much better? Seahawks should be able to stay in the game.
Dallas/Jets over 41
- Both teams should have 20+ here. Both teams have dangerous threats on offence. This number is too low.
New England -7 over Miami
- New England will roll over Miami...35-10 is my prediction.
Denver -3 over Oakland
- Broncos simply a better team and at Mile High. They get Dumervil back and Von Miller is a beast. As long as they can slow down McFadden a bit and give Orton some time (which I think they can), they should win this game.
