Sportz Picks NFL Week ONE

The NFL season is ready to begin.....so I'll begin with my PICKS OF WEEK ONE!!!!!!

REDSKINS PILLAGE BUCCANEERS. Portis. Portis. Portis. Play action. Coles. If the Skins defense played like it did against the Falcons last week…..they will win. Redskins 24-17

PATRIOTS PASTE THE COLTS. I really think that the new rules will hurt the Pats here against the Colts….but, Thursday night in from of the entire nation watching….sure seems like Tom Brady Time!! Pats 24-20

BRONCOS OVER CHIEFS. Excellent rivalry game for the Sunday night tilt. Priest Holmes against Clinton…..errr….never mind. Gonzalez against Shannon Sh……never mind. Why not!!! Broncos 26-21

PANTHERS SEND PACKERS PACKING. Monday night in Charlotte should be magical. The Panthers should be ready to prove they weren’t flukes. And Favre is a MNF veteran. But, in the end, the Panther defense gets Brett to make a few too many mistakes. Panthers 17-7.

SAINTS SHOOT DOWN SEAHAWKS. Brooks and McAllister will be ready to go….but can the Saints D-fense hang with the Hawks’ wide-outs?? I say, YES!! Saints 23-20

BILLS BATTER THE JAGS. Leftwich has an ouchie on his finger….and the Bills could be one of the NFL’s pleasant surprises this year. Henry and MaGhee runs all over the Jags. Remember, at this point last year Buffalo whipped the Patriots. Bills 30-13

RAVENS ERASE BROWNS. If you saw any Browns pre-season games….you saw Garcia running around for his life. Now, this is the regular season……against BALTIMORE!!! Gar-SEE-YA!!! Ravens 31-10

VIKINGS RIDE OVER COWBOYS. One of the best match-ups will be Moss against that Cowboys’ secondary. But, who is Dallas’ QB??? Exactly. And their running game hasn’t looked that great either. At least the Vikes have Dante. Vikings 28-17

EAGLES TACKLE GIANTS. Let’s see…..an angry Philly team. A division rival. A weak, division rival. A QB that’s suddenly mistake prone. Home game. Possible message sender. Eagles 30-3

JETS LAND ON THE BENGALS. Interesting tid-bit I heard [but didn’t research]. Every year the Bengals have made the playoffs….they’ve beaten the Jets. Well, no playoffs in 2004. Jets 27-20

TITANS TAME DOLPHINS. Well, the Dolphins offense is currently getting high and eating curry in India right now. Tennessee is looking for a running game, too. Titans 17-10

RAMS BUCK CARDINALS. No need to explain. Rams 34-13

LIONS MAUL BEARS. Detroit has more healthy weapons the Chicago does. Lions 23-14

FALCONS PAN PAST NINERS. Barely. Atlanta [read: Vick] has looked lousy in the pre-season. But, the entire Niners looked bad as well. Let’s just hope Barlow has a big game [FFL ALERT]. Falcons 20-16

STEELERS NAIL RAIDERS. Whichever QB wins, keeps his job for another week. It will be Maddox…because of Staley. Steelers 16-7

TEXANS STOP CHARGERS. The “worst game of the week”. So Don Criqui must be there. If Houston can hold LT under 400 yards…they’ll win. Texans 21-14
