The results are in! A tough week is right.
Man what happened to Green Bay? I thought I had that one in the bag, and they just fell apart. Theoretically, as the weeks go on, I should be able to make “better” picks since, I’ll have more data to go on…The first two weeks are harder because, well, it’s a guess. I’ve been able to see how they play…so no more excuses from here on out. Hah. At least I’m still above .500…barely.

My Pick w/ Spread |
Comments |
| LOSS | Carolina Panthers | Minnesota Vikings | Carolina (pick) | I expect Carolina to come back very strong against the Vikings. The Vikings may have won last week, but they just looked okay against Washington. I expect Carolina to play the way they should be playing. |
| WIN | Tampa Bay Buccaneers | Atlanta Falcons | Atlanta (-6) | Atlanta seems to do either really well or really bad. If Dunn and Vick play well, I expect them to frustrate Simms just like last week. They will pull this one off by at least a touchdown. |
| LOSS | New Orleans Saints | Green Bay Packers | Green Bay (+3) | Favre will make this close or win it out right. That man is a warrior, yes he should retire, but he will have his games, and I think this one will be it. I bet he has a 300yd, 3td game. |
| LOSS | Arizona Cardinals | Seattle Seahawks | Arizona (+7) | If Seattle plays the way they did last week, Arizona will win. Zona has an explosive offense, Warner vs. Hasselbeck…no contest, WARNER. I don’t know why people are so high on Hasselbeck who consistently put up average numbers. I guess consistent is the key word. |
| WIN | Kansas City Chiefs | Denver Broncos | KC (+10.5) | Smart Pick! Kansas City will come back against the Broncos. Although I expect LJ to dominate this game, Damon Huard will be the X factor to make it happen. I think KC will be better with Huard than Green. Seriously. |
| WIN | Pittsburgh Steelers | Jacksonville Jaguars | Jacksonville (+3) | Jacksonville has always been a team I liked, but they always let me down for some reason. This week will be different. I could imagine them losing by less than 3 points. Pittsburgh may win, but Jacksonville will cover. |
| LOSS | Detroit Lions | Chicago Bears | Detriot (+9) | Dumb Pick! After all the hype I gave Chicago last week, why would I pick the Detroit Lions? I don’t know…It seemed real crazy. So I picked it. |
I should’ve picked my Niners!! 3 Wins, 4 Losses. I guess it could’ve been much uglier. I’m still up 1 win 
. Next week I may change my strategy a bit. I’ve been selecting real ‘iffy’ games. I’ll focus on the quality matchups. Stay tuned. How’d you do this week?
