Favorite Japanese title: Don't Own
Bears @ Packers: Packers (It'll be nice to have the Packers and the Bears at 1-1 each.)
Buccaneers @ Giants: Giants (I don't think this is much of a contest...)
Raiders @ Dolphins: Raiders (Slopfest of the week?)
Texans @ Jaguars: Texans (Psh.)
Browns @ Bengals: Bengals (I like the Bengals; Dalton, Green, Green-Ellis... they've got a good thing going.)
Chiefs @ Bills: Bills (I've got a good feeling about Spiller, but Fitzy needs to get it together.)
Ravens @ Eagles: Ravens (I don't think the odds of the Eagles winning are too great here...)
Saints @ Panthers: Saints (Newton needs to get it together for my fantasy team's sake.)
Cardinals @ Patriots: Patriots (Great home team against a poor road team... yeah.)
Vikings @ Colts: Vikings (With Peterson playing like he was never hurt, the Vikings should beat the Colts.)
Redskins @ Rams: Rams (I hate the Redskins in any match-up, and the Rams are OK.)
Cowboys @ Seahawks: Cowboys (The Cowboys beating the Giants and the Seahawks losing to the Cardinals makes this seem like an easy pick... but you never know with the Cowboys.)
Jets @ Steelers: Steelers (I don't know what to say other than that the Steelers should win this.)
Titans @ Chargers: Chargers (Meh.)
Lions @ 49ers: Lions (An absolute homer pick, but this should be a good game.)
Broncos @ Falcons: Falcons (Peyton was impressive, but so was Matty Ice. I think this will be another great game.)

My picks for Week 2:
Bears @ Packers: Packers (Though the Bears D is tough, I can't really go against Rodgers, I don't see the Pack starting 0-2 either, should be a good one nonetheless)
Buccaneers @ Giants: Giants (Don't see a way the SB champs let the Bucs upset them here)
Raiders @ Dolphins: Raiders (Sucky game of the week, Raiders should pull it out though)
Texans @ Jaguars: Texans (I trust Arian will run over the Jags defense)
Browns @ Bengals: Bengals (Even though the Browns surprised the Eagles, the Bengals' Dalton/AJ Green combo is more dynamic than anything the Browns can offer; both secondaries are fairly good though)
Chiefs @ Bills: Chiefs (After the Bills got blown out last week, I'm not expecting them to comeback and pick up the win)
Ravens @ Eagles: Ravens (As much as I hate saying it, the Ravens are a better team than the Eagles all around. There's a good chance that if Vick isn't consistent and they don't give Shady the ball, that Flacco will be bombing passes downfield all day and outscore them.)
Saints @ Panthers: Saints (Don't bet against the elite QBs much and this is one of those times)
Cardinals @ Patriots: Patriots (I expect the score to be 90-6.)
Vikings @ Colts: Vikings (It's a toss up, but I'm guessing Andrew Luck improves on last week, AP should lead the way to a win)
Redskins @ Rams: Redskins (Same as above, RGIII does better against a less tough defense)
Cowboys @ Seahawks: Cowboys (Cowboys probably get the win because they have good momentum, then again Russell Wilson could prove me wrong)
Jets @ Steelers: Steelers (I expect Big Ben to rebound, should be a good one)
Titans @ Chargers: Chargers (Another elite QB I don't see losing, though this is another possible upset)
Lions @ 49ers: 49ers [Should be a fun game, two solid offenses going at it: Megatron (provided he's healthy enough) vs Vernon Davis, Stafford vs Alex Smith, etc.]
Broncos @ Falcons: Broncos (Another great game between great quarterbacks, though I'm riding the Peyton bandwagon right now)

I didn't know it was even possible to play an NFL double-header.

WE ARE NOT THAT BAD. :P

Apologies, got caught up in schoolwork and America's Got Talent yesterday, will post after dinner.

I meant to pick the Falcons. I seriously did pick them, thus my comment (I knew Matt Ryan was going to blow them out, and lo and behold he racked up 4 TD's on them). I forgot to switch the team when I C/P'd the list of games, though, so it said Chiefs... I'm putting down a loss for myself unless you guys are exceedingly nice and sympathetic. :P

Very clumped rankings, but that was expected. It'll be nice and spread out by Week 3, Week 4. No other comments, really...

By the way guys, can you all use the format I listed above? Whoever posts their picks first, use that template, then everyone else copy and paste and sub in their own picks. It makes it much easier for everyone to read and compare, for me to look them over and update standings without error, as well as making the process of y'all posting picks much quicker. If you already posted this week's picks in a different format than everyone else, then you have the option to edit it or not, but from this point on I want all of you to use the format above. Thanks in advance~
