you can't possibly be serious?

the Patriots escape a loss to the Buffalo Bills on a single mistake. I don't think there was anything for the Patriot's to be excited about tonight.

looks like the raiders will be going to the super bowl

Pats got lucky. Brady looked mortal for the first time (outside of getting injured) for the first time in a long time. His accuracy just wasn't there in some of the early throws. I didn't watch the second half but the Pats are going to be so-so early on until Brady starts getting back in the groove of things late in the year. The Pat's D is definately rebuilding right now, so calling the Pats a SB "lock" is far-fetched at this point.

Honestly if the Ravens had some better WRs, I'd call them one of the favorites in the AFC despite the loss of Bart Scott and Rex Ryan. Flacco can only get better, the O-line and RBs are above average, and the D is still tough.

My SB picks:

NFC: Falcons or Cowboys
AFC: Ravens or Chargers

Yes, I'm a homer. But the Boys have three solid RBs, the best TE in the league, and a solid D. If Romo can finally not duck it up in december, the Boys will not only win their first playoff game in over a decade, they might just win it all! Besides, the last time the Cowboys opened a new stadium (71,) they won the super bowl. Have you seen the new stadium? It's epicly awesome. The scoreboard is like 70 yards long. And yes, I've been in there for a game (specifically, my old high school was playing in the first HS game in the new stadium.)

Falcons O might be the best in the league if turner can produce like he did last year, and if "Matty Ice" continues to improve on his impressive rookie season. The D is still a question, but if the falcons can control the clock and keep things from a shootout (might be tough against the Saints,) they are definately a tough team.

Ravens I've talked about earlier. Chargers are always up-n-down during the season, but turn it on for the playoffs. If they can get a consistent running game, and the D continues to get pressure (with Merriman coming back,) they can easily make another run like last year.

Those are my thoughts. The Giants have a great D but the WRs suck and Eli has more 3+ int games than Jay Cutler + Jake Delhomme combined (for now.) The Eagles O-line is still banged up, as is McNabb. Garcia could keep the team in contention (assuming he plays eventually, as they just signed him,) but I just hate the eagles too much to pick them.

You analyze sports like those douchebags on espn. All you needed to do was throw in the word "intangibles" a few times and you're in.

It's week one. Start talking about teams that look good enough to make it to the superbowl around week 6-7.

It's always nice to make some early predictions so you can look back and judge how (in)accurate you were. As for the ESPN comment, I do watch it quite a bit so I'm not surprised. TBH wouldn't be a bad job to have...

My star player may not feature against the Ravens this weekend after missing 2 consecutive practices. Just gets worse for me

BigBear3 · #**114** 09-19-2009, 01:35 AM

Somebody post the standings, I'm too lazy to check and then other people can see who's winning.

Eee... 11th place. I forgot to take out Berrian last week and Mason and Marshall sucked. Brees is the only reason I'm not dead last.

BlackSolider · #**115** 09-19-2009, 03:31 AM

It's week two, so half the teams are 1-0 and half are 0-1. Standings are fairly useless until after week 3 or so, but I'll post em here if I remember.

MysticX2X · #**116** 09-19-2009, 03:45 AM

well by comparing points

Unkownsoldier · #**117** 09-19-2009, 05:59 PM

Ahh... French Smashers is going down who ever that is.
