(Home team in caps, my pick in bold)
8 dogs, 8 faves, a balanced week. Indy tends to fart around with bottom feeders but I think this early in the season they'll bring the wood. Ditto New England. Not sure why Philly's getting 6 against a Lions team that looks like they can score. Hard to tell if the Steelers are as good as they look, strangely enough SF is a good test for them. Still waiting for the Rams to get it right, got to feel like this is the week. I think the Packers are looking pretty good, I like the Chargers to get the W but not to cover. Not sure why Baltimore is giving 9, they're not exactly an offensive machine. I have the kooky feeling that the Vikings could be the surprise team of the year. Oakland might've found someone they can beat, hard to imagine the Browns putting up fitty again this week. Seahawks-Bengals may be the best match of the week: these are 2 squads struggling for some identity, we'll see who gets it. Broncos-Jags may be the most frustrating match of the week: ditto the identity-less squads, but this one could get ugly. If the Falcons win at all this year, the schizo-Panthers may be their best shot. Curious to see if the Redskins can actually string together a coupla good games. Who gets the 'overrated' tag all next week on talk radio, Cowboys or Bears? C'mon Saints, you're supposed to be America's team, so start scoing some points or Vince Young will clown you on national TV!
