Dot's Picks, NFL Week Two

Kit has made some amazing football inspired clothes--the "Old School" collection is now available at CKS Designs!

I edged out Kit last week, with a 10-6 record. Will the tables turn this week? We shall see.....

My picks for this week:


Tennessee at Cincinnati

I like the Bengals. I'm expecting Vince Young's mother to call me any minute to bitch at me for not supporting her son.

Green Bay at Detroit

At least Detroit has the Raiders to point to as being worse than they are. Of course, this is like a South Dakotan making fun of a North Dakotan, but you have to work with what you have. Green Bay all the way.

Oakland at Kansas City

And Oakland, searching for a team to feel superior to, chooses the Washington Generals. Since they don't play the same sport, Oakland is confident they won't be called out. Kansas City wins.

New York Giants at St. Louis

The picks this week are so easy and logical that there has to be catch. This game isn't it. Giants.

Indianapolis at Minnesota

I'm going out on a limb and picking Minnesota. Indianapolis' offensive line leads to Peyton Manning being double stuffed more than once.

New Orleans at Washington

The Saints.

Chicago at Carolina

Carolina.

Buffalo at Jacksonville

For all the talk about the Jets being able to leapfrog the Patriots, the Bills are the team with a better chance. Doctors still haven't invented a Jetsectomy.

San Francisco at Seattle

This is like choosing between liver and liverwurst. San Francisco, and I'm holding my nose.

Atlanta at Tampa Bay

Matt Ryan threw a touchdown pass in his first NFL pass attempt. So did Michael Bishop. Who's that? Exactly. Tampa Bay

New England at NY Jets

Did you know Tom Brady threw the ball to Tom Brady while also providing pass protection for Tom Brady? Until New England loses, I'm not rational on the subject. New England.

Miami at Arizona

Arizona. No reason, other than Miami sucks.

San Diego at Denver

Shawne Merriman is out for the season. Denver runs over San Diego.

Pittsburgh at Cleveland

Kit is an optimist, God bless her, but Pittsburgh wins this game. On the other hand, Browns fans look forward to a head-to-head sentence diagramming competition with Steelers fans.

Philadelphia at Dallas

I know, I know, everyone thinks the Cowboys are going to the Super Bowl. Dot Lane doesn't do bandwagons. Philadelphia.

Baltimore at Houston

I just don't see the Baltimore offense coming out with any kind of sustained production and their defense isn't as good as it has been in previous years. The scale tips to Houston.
