Gb @ min - I’m worried that with Percy Harvin and Adrian Peterson, the Packers just don’t have enough defense to win. Favre is going to do his fair share of screwing up - despite 4th quarter comebacks and the Superbowl win, Favre actually has a long history of not being a big game quarterback. At least not out of the gate. He spent years spotting the opposition the first quarter, being too amped up to control himself. The first really big game he had in his last year with the Packers, against Dallas in big D, he went completely off the reservation and more or less handed the ‘Boys the game. He was just too jittery in the big moment.

He’ll be jittery in this big moment, too. If the Packers can pile on points in the first quarter and then hold off Peterson and Favre’s hail marys, then they can win. But if the Packers only have 3 points at the end of the first quarter, it’s gonna be a Packers loss. I think, anyway.

Winners are bold:

Hou @ Ten - Houston was a big disappointment last week.
No @ Phi
Ari @ Jac
Oak @ Kc
Cin @ Gb - I’m hoping Ochocinco gets a TD, tries to do the Lambeau Leap, and gets nothing but handfuls of sweaty, hairy man butts.

Cle @ Den - I don’t like either team, but I think the Browns have a lot of quit in them. I think Denver will take the lead in the 2nd half and cruise from there.

Technorati Tags: NFL, Week 2 Picks

Former Monday Night Football intro singer Pink likes getting the party started. Mike Singletary likes this kind of party. So let’s get the 2009 NFL gambling extravaganza underway, shall we?

Unlike 2008, where I picked against the spread, and frankly, got my ass handed to me in little pieces, I’m making picks straight up this year. Why? 1) I’m lazy. 2) I make picks on other sites that call for straight up picks. 3) I don’t like to work very hard, like making picks with and without the spread.

Getting the party started, just before the start of the Tennessee-Pittsburgh game, I offer you my picks for week 1 of the 2009 NFL season. If you like money, feel free to make my picks your own.

As always, winners are in bold:

Ten @ Pit
Mia @ Atl
Phi @ Car
Den @ Cin
Min @ Cle
NYJ @ HOU
Jac @ Indy
Det @ NO
KC @ Bal
Dal @ TB
SF @ Ari
Wash @ NYG
STL @ Sea
Chi @ GB
Buf @ NE
SD @ Oak

[Did I mention Pink was bisexual?]
