Continue reading →: Kansas City Chiefs at Philadelphia Eagles: 2013 Week 3 NFL Pick
Kansas City Chiefs (2-0) at Philadelphia Eagles (1-1) I have some rules for picking Thursday Night Games. I like home teams, particularly favorites, and particularly non-divisional favorites. This is a variety of reasons. I like home teams because you need all the time you can get on a short week…

San Diego Chargers (0-1) at Philadelphia Eagles (1-0) Chip Kelly’s offense looked very good in its first real test against Washington, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. I’ll need to see it against a better defense. Washington might have the worst secondary in the NFL. I believe the offensive…

Dallas Cowboys (1-0) at Kansas City Chiefs (1-0) After forcing just 16 takeaways last season, the Cowboys forced 6 against the Giants week 1. They won’t do that every week, but it’s just another sign that takeaways are very inconsistent on a year to year basis. They’re also very inconsistent…

Washington Redskins (0-1) at Green Bay Packers (0-1) I’ve flip-flopped on this one so many times because it’s tough to know what to expect from Robert Griffin. Robert Griffin threw 4 interceptions all last regular season. Now he has 4 interceptions in his last 2 games combined, including the playoff…

Continue reading →: Detroit Lions at Arizona Cardinals: 2013 Week 2 NFL Pick
Detroit Lions (1-0) at Arizona Cardinals (0-1) The Lions won just 4 games last year despite outgaining opponents by the 2nd most yardage in the NFL, by over 1000 yards. This is largely because they surrendered a ridiculous 70 points on return touchdowns, without scoring once in that fashion. If you…

New Orleans Saints (1-0) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-1) The Saints’ won their first game of the season with Sean Payton returning and now have won 10 straight home games with Payton as Head Coach, which includes the entirety of the 2011 season. It was an impressive win over a…

Cleveland Browns (0-1) at Baltimore Ravens (0-1) The Ravens lost last week 49-27 in Denver, a final score that could have had an even bigger margin, but it’s important to remember it’s just one game. Peyton Manning had the game of his (and a lot of other people’s) life. I…

Carolina Panthers (0-1) at Buffalo Bills (0-1) The Panthers were my biggest sleeper coming into the season. In 2012, The Panthers won 6 of their final 9 games to finish 7-9. Among those 6 wins were victories over division winners Washington and Atlanta, as well as a victory in New…
