Continue reading →: Miami Dolphins at Cleveland Browns: 2013 Week 1 NFL Pick
Miami Dolphins (0-0) at Cleveland Browns (0-0) The Dolphins were hailed by the media as the winners of the off-season, after all of the millions they spent, but like previous “winners” of the off-season, they should disappoint. The Buccaneers were the “winner” of last off-season, after shelling out big money…

Philadelphia Eagles (0-0) at Washington Redskins (0-0) When this line opened at -5, it was one of the few lines I really had no idea on. I was just going to take the points because I felt the Redskins were being overrated. They won’t recover a league best 67% of…

Arizona Cardinals (0-0) at St. Louis Cardinals (0-0) The line used to be -6 in favor of St. Louis, but, unfortunately, it’s dropped down to -4.5. I would have taken Arizona +6, but I’m not as confident in Arizona +4.5. That being said, I think these two teams are much…

Continue reading →: 2013 NFL Awards
MVP: QB Aaron Rodgers (Green Bay) Rodgers was my highest ranked quarterback in my top-200 and in my fantasy projections and the top quarterback usually wins this award as long as his team makes the playoffs. In his last 45 games, including the playoffs, Rodgers has thrown for 114 touchdowns,…

New England Patriots (0-0) at Buffalo Bills (0-0) A few weeks ago, this line was at -7.5 in favor of New England. However, EJ Manuel got hurt and the line shot up as it looked like undrafted free agent backup Jeff Tuel (originally the 3rd stringer before Kevin Kolb’s season…

Green Bay Packers (0-0) at San Francisco 49ers (0-0) The 49ers beat the Packers in Green Bay last season as underdogs in what was a statement game for a team that would go on to prove that their 2011 season was no fluke. This season, the situation is completely flipped.…

Continue reading →: Atlanta Falcons at New Orleans Saints: 2013 Week 1 NFL Pick
Atlanta Falcons (0-0) at New Orleans Saints (0-0) I expect the 2013 Saints and Falcons to largely resemble the 2011 versions of their teams, when the Saints won 13 games and the Falcons 10 games. The Falcons’ 13 wins last year were done largely with smoke and mirrors and in…

Kansas City Chiefs (0-0) at Jacksonville Jaguars (0-0) The Chiefs were no ordinary 2-14 team. They had 6 Pro-Bowlers last year. That might sound baffling, but it’s not. Only Eric Berry and maybe Tamba Hali (who had a down year) didn’t deserve it, but they could have easily been replaced…

Continue reading →: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at New York Jets: 2013 Week 1 NFL Pick
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-0) at New York Jets (0-0) Buccaneers games might be the toughest to predict in the NFL because of how inconsistent Josh Freeman is. He used to just be incredibly inconsistent on a year to year basis. Josh Freeman posted a touchdown to interception ratio of 10/18…

Continue reading →: Tennessee Titans at Pittsburgh Steelers: 2013 Week 1 NFL Pick
Tennessee Titans (0-0) at Pittsburgh Steelers (0-0) A lot of people are really down on the Steelers right now, but I like their chances to have a bounce back year, as teams normally do after a significant win decrease. Teams that decrease by 4 wins, on average, have a win…
