I'm too lazy to type it all out so I copy and pasted yours and changed the ones I wanted to change.


san diego loses to GREEN BAY. Never underestimate Favre and their solid defense
KANSAS CITY over minnesota Larry Johnson is going to let loose at some point this year and I think it will be this week.
NEW ENGLAND over buffalo-duh
NYJETS over miami Both teams are equally inept so it's a crapshoot.
detroit over PHILLY Philly is floundering and Detroit is on a roll. Don't underestimate Philly D and McNabb though.
PITTSBURGH over san francisco. SHouldn't even be close
st. louis over TAMPA BAY. Who knows on this one?
BALTIMORE over arizona. Another blowout. Baltimore's D is made of steel and is fast as hell.
HOUSTON gets slaughtered by indianapolis. I wonder how many touchdowns Manning will throw for? 4 or 5 or more?
DENVER over jacksonville. Really close game. MAybe battle of the week. Jax is on a roll and Denver is Denver- always solid.
cleveland over OAKLAND. At least Cleveland has an offense instead of being totally lame like Oakland.
SEATTLE over cincinatti. C'mon Holmgren, get that d working and let Alexander put his legs to use.
carolina over ATLANTA. I wonder if Atlanta will win 4 games this season?
WASHINGTON over nygiants. Barely because both teams are wallowing in mediocrity. The NFC East has fallen upon hard times if Dallas has no competition this year.
CHICAGO gets played by dallas . No offense besides Devon Hester equals no possible way to win against Dallas's high powered offense and halfway decent defense. Herman is right, if Dallas gets the lead, it's over because of Grossman's ineptitude and penchant for f*cking up and throwing interceptions at the worst times.
NEW ORLEANS loses to tenessee. No Madden curse here for Vince Young. He's the real deal. Him combined with a stingy defense, a passable running game and a few no-name but capable receivers equals a credible threat. A demoralized New Orleans doesn't have a chance.

We get 6 games a week now here so manage to catch at least some gigs permitting been a huge fan for 20 plus years though so pour over web sites and god knows what else for most of the info.

herman. I would have thought you were just another beer-swilling premiership supporter.

American blood?

Im more of a Jamisons swilling Premiership man myself no US blood just a rather tragic sports fan generally.

No College games mean nothing here to be honest with the allegiance thing there a bit of a hard watch to be honest.

Simmons I do read but his picks suck as bad as yours :)
