Make your week 2 picks!

Also, I will willingly throw out my pick of Houston over Washington and revert to -1 if people would prefer. I thought everybody would pick Washington due to retooled WRs and defense.

 

Vikings OVER Patriots
I'm hesitant to make this pick, but I like the way Mike Zimmer's defense matches up with New England's offense and don't trust New England's OL. Revis can't shut down Patterson, entirely, and I expect Cordarrelle to make more big plays. AP should run roughshod over New England if Knowshon Moreno did.

Chargers OVER Seahawks
I really liked how both Arizona and San Diego's defenses looked last night, and with Seattle primed for a loss or two on the road, San Diego looks like a good, surprising spot for that to happen.

This one is difficult because most of the ones I think may be upsets are basically coinflips. (Falcons/Bengals Panthers/Lions and Eagles/Colts)

 

So let's tentatively go with:

 

Browns > Saints

 

Probably not happening, I have next to no confidence in this but... Brian Hoyer is not garbage and the Saints are on the road. Anything is possible when your man smells like old spice.

Chargers over Seahawks: Seahawks aren't that great in road games and San Diego plays well at home.

 

Rams over Buccaneers: Neither team looks that good, and TB Is a 5.5 point favorite so I consider this an upset.

How're we defining upset? General consensus or point spread?

 

Either way, gimme the Ravens over the Steelers, and the Giants over the Cards.

Let's go with general consensus. We know football better than the general fan. I trust our opinions.

I tend to agree, but am hesitant to throw it out with the way Jacksonville folded like a tent in a storm against an Eagles team that isn't that much better than the Jags. :shrug:

Dallas over Tennessee. Dallas is one of those wtf teams year in and year out. Will look like crap and then look awesome. This should be one of the awesome weeks.
