Week 1 2006
Dolphins at Steelers...At first I was thinking the Steelers will win but there seems to be something special brewing in South Florida...Dolphins 20-16
Falcons at Panthers...Panthers as good as advertised? You bet! Vick overrated as advertised? You bet! ...Panthers 38-10
Ravens at Buccaneers...Ravens will sink the Pirates ship early in the season...Ravens 17-13
Bills at Patriots..Patriots wil like superbowl contenders against a team run by a bunch of grumpy ole men...Patriots 35-3
Bengals at Chiefs...Bengals a better team but the Chiefs cheat , I mean win at home....Chiefs 45-42
Broncos at Rams...Only question is which bronco running back will get 150 yards...Broncos 30-20
Saints at Cleveland...One of these teams will be undefeated after this..amazing!....Browns 24-21
Jets at Titans...Titans will win because the Jets have no place to land...Titans 28-10
Eagles at Texans...Someone please explain to me why there is a cow on the Texans helmet...Eagles 24-17
Seahawks at Lions...Lions should change their name to the *****cats...Seahawks 48-0
Bears at Packers...Favre may retire at half time...Bears
Cowboys at Jaguars...The entire fan base in the NFL outside of Dallas will be waiting to see if TO will get his head knocked off...Cowboys 20-13
49ers at Cardinals...New stadium will have nothing to do with this outcome...Cardinals 38-17
Colts at Giants...Giants are a tough hard nosed blitzing team which means Payton will panic...Giants 18-17
Vikings at Redskins...I doubt if Clinton Portis will play defense...Redskins 17-14
Chargers at Raiders...Raiders have Moss!!! Oh wait, they had him last year too...Chargers 52-7
 
Steelers over fins with or without ben, the fins will lose by 9 points.
panthers over falcans
ravens over bucs
pats over bills (i hate to do it, but untill i see some change i cant predict a major change)
bengals over cheifs. awsome O vs a horrible D... what do you think will happen??
rams over broncos (those overrated bums in denver will finally reveal who they really are)
Browns over saints (upset pic. the browns suck, but i think the saints will suck even worse)
Titans over jets (and the titans lose out on the #1 draft pick next year)
Texans over eagles (another upset, i just hate the eagles)
seahawlks over lions for obvious reasons
bears over packers (even if brett was in his prime they couldnt win more than 3 games this year)
jags over cowboys (cowboys are all hype, bledsoe can't handle the blitz, and the jags have a very good D)
Cardinals over 49ers for obvious reasons
colts over giants but it will be a good game.
Skins over vikings. the skins will suck this year.... but the vikings will be worse
Chargers over raiders. go Rivers :D
 
FINS over Steelers in a close game
Panthers over Falcons
Bucs destroy Ravens big time
Pats over Bills
Bengals over Chiefs
Broncos over rams
Saints over Browns
Titans over jets
Eagles over Texans
Seahawks over Lions
Bears over Packers
Boys over Jags

IMO, most people who pick the fins to win because big ben is injured.

i basically see the current fins as the same team as last year's fins with a new QB. but there were a lot of concerns about culpepper in the off season and i need to see him perform like you all think is will, before i say you can upset the defending SB champs.
 
rams over broncos is my upset pick of the week. think of what we did to denver last year at home with linehan coaching. ;)

Note: I'm considering of possibly changing to Atlanta but can only do so before the game starts... with that being said... any significant injury updates before gametime could also change my mind but this is most likely my final decision(s).

UPDATE: 09/10/06 at 12:09 P.M. I have changed my pick to ATL due to Steve Smith's injury and not playing... this will probably be my last and only changed pick, the edit thing should tell my time of update.

I got Atlanta over Carolina. :)

I really like their secondary, and the addition of John Abraham is huge. Ashley Lelie was another great addition, finally Michael Vick has a real target to throw to. And that new rookie runningback looks like a stud. Plus Warrick Dunn and Alge Crumpler are great as well.
