Week 3 Predictions

I knew my TwittPick would be right, I DIDN'T know that it would be such a blowout. I mean, Matty Ice shellacked Lovie's Bucs. It's serious when starters sit at the halftime. Anyway, moving on to this week's picks.

San Diego v. Buffalo: Buffalo. The Bills are 2-0 and are going strong. And they are home. Phillip Rivers and Antonio Gates have found a rhythm, but I'm not sure it's enough against the Bills' defense.

Tennessee v. Cincinnati: Tennessee came out of the gate like spring...in like a lion but out like a lamb. Meanwhile, Cincinnati's backs have been lighting up D-lines the past couple weeks. That said, A.J. Green is injured (although, I think he'll play this week). I'm not sure the Titans' defense is up to the challenge, though. So I'm going for Cincinnati for tomorrow.

Baltimore v. Cleveland: I'm taking Cleveland as my upset pick. They had a huge win last week, and all of the off-the-field shenanigans that are going on has been seeping into the Ravens' daily life. Yesterday there was an emergency meeting, and according to the Twitterverse it involved players as well.

Green Bay v. Detroit: Normally in a rivalry game I'd take the home team. And Megatron is a serious threat against the Packers' sorry defense. That said, something goes haywire whenever Green Bay goes to Detroit and the Lions end up losing. So I'll take Green Bay.

Indianapolis v. Jacksonville: Indy.

Oakland v. New England: New England.

Minnesota v. New Orleans: NOLA. New Orleans coming off a huge loss to the Browns and Minnesota loses AP for the season.

Houston v. New York: Giants get their first win of the season.

Washington v. Philadelphia: Washington. Once again I'd normally take the home team, but this is Desean Jackson's first game against his old team. No matter what he's going to have a huge game. And when Desean Jackson lights it up, he goes HAM.

Dallas v. St. Louis: Dallas.

San Francisco v. Arizona: Arizona. Because the 49ers seem to have lost a little bit of their glossy finish. And, I think Arizona is tired, TIRED, TIRED!!! of being ignored as an elite team in the NFL.

Kansas City v. Miami: KC.

Denver v. Seattle: Denver. In this Super Bowl rematch, I take Denver. Because Peyton won't be taking a dive this time.

Pittsburgh v. Carolina: Carolina...because Pitt's defense isn't what it used to be.

Chicago v. New York: J-E-T-S!
