Here are our predictions for week #1 in the NFL....keep in mind we had a 73% correct pick percentage last year, so it's worth hearing our point of view on these predictions.
Miami at Pittsburgh 8:30 p.m.
Miami 24-17...We all HATE the Steelers, and besides, C.Batch is a joke of a QB
Atlanta at Carolina 1:00 p.m.
This is the game of the week. I like Carolina's fire power, however, with Steve Smith on the fritz, it will be close. I see them pulling this out, 17-13 Carolina
Baltimore at Tampa Bay 1:00 p.m.
Another interesting match-up that has oddsmakers scratching their heads. We think TB is too tough at home, 14-10 TB
Buffalo at New England 1:00 p.m.
NE still has Brady, enough said. NE big, 30-10
Cincinnati at Kansas City 1:00 p.m.
Another intriguing game here....is Palmer ready? Does KC have a defense? Cinn has too many weapons regardless of how hard it is to play in KC......Cinn 27-20
Denver at St. Louis 1:00 p.m.
Denver is not good in domes or turf, but the Rams are a hurting bunch.....Denver here, 24-20
New Orleans at Cleveland 1:00 p.m.I think Cleveland is a sleeper this year....they take NO, 24-7
N.Y. Jets at Tennessee 1:00 p.m.
A battle of uglies here...will either team win 4 games this year? Tenn is good at home, and that's about it. Tenn 13-3
Philadelphia at Houston 1:00 p.m.
Houston may have made the mistake of the century not taking Bush...Philly all the way, 28-10
Seattle at Detroit 1:00 p.m.
Hawks have too many weapons for Detroit and this well help exercise the demon's of 2005...Seattle big, 34-17
Chicago at Green Bay 4:15 p.m.
Battle of the Norris division...too bad it will be 80 degrees at game time....Chicago here 20-17....Farve we think is done unfortunately
Dallas at Jacksonville 4:15 p.m.Too up and coming teams here...we love Jax D, so we think they can tame T.O. and company....Jax 20-17 in a great game
San Francisco at Arizona 4:15 p.m.
Another battle of uglies, but given the right sauce, AZ might be a good team this year....if they can get Warner out, even better. AZ here, 23-17
Indianapolis at N.Y. Giants 8:15 p.m.
The Manning's duke it out.....Peyton wins this one, 34-31 in a thriller
Minnesota at Washington 7:00 p.m.
Gibbs will have the hogs on a roll.......35-17
San Diego at Oakland 10:15 p.m.
Ah yes, two teams that really hate each other in the blackhole...what could be better? We'll take Oakland with an upset here, 24-20

Point of parlimentary procedure...if you're going to have a link at the top that says, "Seattle Cheerleaders", it should damn well take you to the chicks, not a link to buy a puffy starter jacket.
Oh yea, you give Alex Smith too much credit. He can't put 17 on the board...
Like the picks. I am taking Cinci and New Orleans as my upsets for the week.
