11-5! Nice! Hope I can keep it up this week.

I actually think there were a couple tough games for me to predict this week. One being Raiders-Dolphins, since it's gonna be a perrenial suck-fest, and the other being Broncos-Falcons, since it's gonna be a good QB matchup.

And the good part is, I have Monday off of school, so I'm gonna watch the SNF Lions game! Woop woop!

Also, unrelated: I <3 the SNF theme song.

Bears @ Packers: Packers (They're Green Bay. They have my new favorite photobomber, Rodgers. They'll bounce back from a loss against Super Bowl contenders and whoop Chi-Town at Lambeau.)
Buccaneers @ Giants: Buccaneers (Hey, I went against the tide on CAR-TB and got that one. I feel like Tampa Bay can keep the momentum going. Freeman-Jackson will win it if they actually do stun all of you.)
Raiders @ Dolphins: Raiders (Top 5 pick for the Fins in the draft? Magic 8-Ball says "You may rely on it.")
Texans @ Jaguars: Texans (Oh man, this could get ugly. For Jacksonville, I mean. It'll be like Madden for Houston, in some likelihood.)
Browns @ Bengals: Bengals (Yes, the Bengals got crushed, but it was against my AFC Super Bowl Rep pick. Andy Dalton will air it out well against a secondary that just lost Joe Haden to a suspension.)
Chiefs @ Bills: Bills (Battle Of The Teams Who Got Lit Up In Week 1! I say the Bills cut down on their turnovers, and C.J. Spiller continues his hot streak. Plus, they had more total yards and yards per play than the Jets last week on offense. No joke.)
Ravens @ Eagles: Ravens (Great game here, but I think Baltimore gets the edge, even playing in Philly.)
Saints @ Panthers: Saints (What a slugfest this should be. I can see New Orleans getting the edge in this one, though.)
Cardinals @ Patriots: Patriots (Most mismatched game of 1-0's I've seen in a while.)
Vikings @ Colts: Vikings (I hate this pick. I really do. I can't decide on this one, and originally went Indy, but merely a hunch tells me to go Vikings here, especially since I had the same intuition last week and ignored it. Look what good that did me.)
Redskins @ Rams: Redskins (We're playing at home after marching into Detroit and nearly stealing a win and a huge upset, but the 'Skins just crushed N'Awlins, RG3 was a behemoth, and our offense struggled against Detroit a decent amount.)
Cowboys @ Seahawks: Cowboys (Seahawks are even worse than everyone thought! Unfortunately, this win will only mean even more undue hype for an NFC East team... most overrated division in football, easily.)
Jets @ Steelers: Steelers (Jets may have just curbstomped Buffalo, but the Steelers are back at home and looking to rebound from a loss against quite a tough opponent. I see them doing so and shutting down the New York Soap Operas.)
Titans @ Chargers: Chargers (San Diego's coming off a win, are at home, and the Titans are in for some major struggles this year. However, I can see a possible upset here, perhaps. It's the Chargers, you never know.)
Lions @ 49ers: 49ers (Gotta give the Niners the edge at home here, but this is Game Of The Week right here. San Francisco is arguably the most balanced team in the league, with the Texans being the only competition I can think of.)
Broncos @ Falcons: Falcons (This is Matt Ryan's year, and Julio Jones's supposed breakout has pretty much passed Phase 1 after last week's performance. If Atlanta's defense can step it up, I can see them being serious contenders.)

Most overrated division? NFC East?

*agrees*

...I made some horrible picks.

Did I really say the Chiefs would beat the Falcons? *goes back in time to physically assault past dtigers*

Damn it, I pulled an S-Jax. I accidentally chose the Bears for some reason when I meant to pick the Packers. *(censored)*...

Hey, Paul's not dead!

Also, it looks as though S-Jax got his wish. RD didn't get his picks in, so now we're down to 16

Holy Buffalo and Arizona and Miami and Cincy and Tampa and...ugh.

Lotta upsets today.. it's upside-down. Brady scoring no TDs.. what?

Well the standings are gonna be all screwed up after this week. My Saints are 0-2.

I don't care what my record ends up looking like; the Rams won today in the worst-officiated game (for both sides) I will ever see. So I'm proud.

My week so far: 7-7. But I'm the ONLY one who called the Dolphins over Raiders upset!

Umm, you picked the Raiders...

I THOUGHT I CALLED THAT!!! I TYPED IT BACKWARDS!!! I MEANT FOR THE PHINS TO WIN!!!
