I just looked through those picks
and I have the exact same picks as Dave. Oh and I gave a co-worker my picks yesterday, so I am 1 for 1 with that game being one of my 7 “locks”.
Steelers (done)
Patriots
Ravens
Saints
Colts
Vikings
Chargers
There you have it, you can go ahead and count those 7, well 6, as in the books. Hahahahaha, I hope so at least
i put the boys down for my suicide league pick... what better week to pick them?

Seahawks over Rams

Browns over Vikes?
I would love to see that happen. The Cowboys need every AFC win over NFC teams and the Vikes should be in the thick of it.
Browns should stick 12men in the box.

Panthers, Bears, and Jets..
I see those as the only real difference in my books. They will beat out the other teams (and these are ones that all three agreed on).
The Lone Wolf
I guess I am the lone wolf that chose the Titans to win tonight. Now they may not have won but not one of the people making that prediction would have predicted to end the way that it did. The Titans in my eyes are still a team to worry about more than the Steelers.
Tony Romo off in dat hole, Watch roll and watch him throw, Watch him lead dem cowboys to the super bowl, now watch me "yua!" crank dat cowboys, Now watch me "yua!" crank dat cowboys, Now watch me "yua!" crank dat cowboys, Now watch me "yua!" crank dat cowboys!

I thought they looked like the better team
except in the kicking game.
Never wrestle with a pig. You both get dirty and the pig loves it.
i disagree
I think the titans will be around 500 this year. I think they are one of the most overrated teams this year, but only time will tell.
I can’t stand the stealers either way.

Then the Steelers must really bite.
They only rushed for like 80 yards all night. Tenn gave it up in the end, and forgot how to rush the QB. As the famous quote goes “The only thing the prevent defense prevents is winning”.

The Titans did not make enough plays, dropped passes that killed drives, and missed field goals (2) affected the score. The stillers executed their plays better nuff said.
Ignore the Mainstream Media, EMBRACE THE HATE!!!!
It's not that hard to execute blocking 4 with 6.
Berger had so much time I could have gotten open.

+1
Nobody but nobody comes after Ben and he sits back there all damm day til someone comes open. pisses me off.

I'm picking
Tila over Merriman
Ben over Accuser Lady
Terry over Tex
Hasish over hashishkebab
Opium over DalaiLuke (in a close one)
Keyboard over dunkman

Can you post the current odds on those matchups?
The USA Today didn’t have them.

Good point
I’ll need to do some research…

You have a tough matchup this week, dunk.
Did you see what Keyboard did to bad knees in the preseason?

I know
he ate knees up. But this is the regular season, so I’m scheming for Kreybor Keyboard.

So blog control only works
if the other team is on the field? Good Xs and Os point…

Well, let's see...
You already lost the first one, Tila was a liar…
Ben’s a decent pick…
Terry wins every argument he’s in, so does Tex… how to resolve?
Hashishkebab has no chance … I’m sure he’d admit it
Opium is never close enough for me to know whether it’d win… but if it was, I’m sure i’d let it win as often as possible.
… and you were winning that fight against the keyboard until I started pulling for ya!
Doomsday returns... Wade Phillips style.
FO on DMN
Maybe it’s because I havent fully woke up yet this morning, but the Football outsiders guy on the DMN blog this morning comes across as a wee bit douche-y.
Gimme the Panthers over the E-gals
Call it the Cowboy embarrassment factor. Carolina’s last game may have been uglier than our last game…. and while the Panthers D is banged up, I see a spirited effort by them… which should be enough to pull off the upset. I’m also predicting Mike Goodson takes a kickoff to the house!
it's going to be
a total blow out. the Eagles will probably score nearly 40. the Panthers have no run defense at all. They’re so soft up the middle, Siavii would be their every down starter.
The Eagles oline
hasn’t exactly been impressive
and likewise, without bradley and dawkins and with a different D coordinator, the Eagles may have problems stopping carolinas ground game. The Panthers have a pretty good oline of their own.
I'm a pickin' and Raf's a grinnin'
Cowboys win…who cares about the rest. Is anyone else actually playing?

And I’m starting to look like him…so I’m ok with that.

I had picked the steelers with the home opener and the pumped up crowd.
Dolphins, saints,Cowboys, Vikings, Colts, Pats, Chargers,Texans, Eagles, Packers, Redskins, Cards, Seahawks, Bengals, and Ravens

I think Carolina has a great shot to beat Philthy
If they can get their power running game going, they can control the clock and limit the Iggles possessions. If CAR defense can get to McFlabb (Andrews is out replaced by Winston Justice, and Peters has to win against Peppers or the rookie Everette Brown, not a given) I think CAR wins.

Which team jumps to prominence this year?
It’s someone every single year, which makes picking week one even more difficult. Not that picking all the games is easy any time. Green Bay really looks good, albeit preseason.
the Bengals beat the Broncos
the Saints run it up on the Lions
the Colts always struggle with the Jags, but the Jags are not the same team anymore.
the Falcons win at home Dolphins
the Vikings beat the Browns with their wheezy QB
the Packers beat the Bears, and it’s not as close as one might think.
the Giants win a low scoring affair against the skunks
the Cards take the phonyniners
the Seahawks win as the Rams begin to relearn how to play football
the Cowboys over the Bucs convincingly
the Eagles run right through the Panthers pathetic tackling
the Ravens win handily over the Chiefs
the Texans actually win an opener against the Jets
the Chargers spank the Raiders
the Pats chew the Bills up and spit them out as Moss upstages the incredible human mouth
Last night I lay in bed looking up at the stars in the sky and I thought to myself, "where the heck is the ceiling?"
raiders over chargers
if not the raiders atleast show they won’t be push over anymore
What the French?! Toast!

I was thinking that same thing.
The Chargers may be in for a surprise, or at least a closer game than a lot of people think. I hope they know that Russel throws bombs 1/3 times he takes a deep drop.

Looking ahead...
If the Giants somehow manage to lose this week to the Redskins, and then they’ll of course lose to the Cowboys next week… Does the universe tear itself apart? One of the top picks for the NFC BEast at 0-2?
Sucks for them, two division games to start the season.
