nfl week 2

MINNY -2 vs.Carolina
All may not be as rosy as predicted for the Panthers. They were never in the game at home against the Falcons, and go on the road to face a pumped up Viking team with a new coach/attitude and a possibly re-vitalized Brad Johnson. The Viking D could be good enough to contain a slow starting Panther offense. Gotta love a pumped up, winning home dog. +116 on the money line.

NYGIANTS +3 at Philly
I posted on this earlier. This will probably be my strongest play, especially at +150 on the money line.

ATLANTA -5.5 vs.Tampa Bay
Falcons may well be the hot surprise team early on,while the Bucs may be the season-long whpping boy. Laying less than a td, with the Falcon D facing a much less potent offense than they did on the road at Carolina.

ST.LOUIS -3 vs.San Fran
I agree with whomever posted on this game earlier. The Rams still have a decent offense and a tough running back. The 9ers still suck. Lay the small #, and hope nothing motivates the home team.

WASHINGTON +6 at Dallas
Always enjoyable to watch Dan Snyder's teams lose. They have a lot of expensive talent(?) as always, but never put it together. Joe Gibbs needs to hang it up. They need a better showing after last Monday night's big home debut disappointment. They don't have to win this game for us to win $$$. The Cowboys also need to show up. I am skeptical about their offense. No surprise to lose to an always tough Jag team. I expect a close game, and the Skins are+235 on the money line.

ARIZONA +7 @ Seattle
I may be the only person around who doesn't like the Seahawks. I don't like their qb or his recievers. I love the way Seattle always chokes at the end of big games. I see them as over-valued this season, particularly early on. I wasn't impressed with the Cardinals last week, but see them as a team slowly putting it together. They should get quietly better as the season progresses. Another game where Zona doesn't have to win in order for me to win.


JACKSONVILLE +1 vs.Pitt
The Jags may well have the better team. They looked good against Dallas, particularly on the defensive side, which was hardly a surprise. I just don't veiw the Steeler offense as the same this year, and still see the team as over-rated. Of course, I would prefer to see Batch remain at qb, and it well may happen. Big Ben may be a little rusty and out of synch if he returns anyway.

Will Smith be back and 100% for Carolina? Gotta believe they wake up here! I was impressed with Minnesota, Johnson can manage a game and they will be tough all season. I call this one for Carolina.

Giants should destroy Philly...although predictions of Philly's demise were a bit premature. Giants by 10.

Atlanta and TB...this game screams "Danger, Will Robinson" to me. Atlanta not as good as they looked in week one and TB certainly not as bad, TB pulls the upset here.


St Louis always fools me, which bunch shows up this week? SF has a nice young offense..Bryant, Smith and Gore are players. Upset #2...SF surprises.


As a life long Skins fan...pass! But if I had to bet the house...Cowboys in double digits.

Arizona and Seattle....Alexander had an off day, this week he may score 10 times! Not really, but Seattle will win this one!

Jacksonville has a nice team, playoffs are within reach again...Pittsburgh is the best team in football...Steelers roll with either Big Ben or Batch at the controls!
