Living outdoors until I make these picks

Will at Hogs Haven
TexSkins at Hogs Haven
Brian at Common Prejudice NFL
Dagger at Post Game Heroes
Derek at Iggles Blog
Blitzburgh at Behind the Steel Curtain (no picks at this point)
Gonzo at Daily Norseman
Gamecocker at Horseshoe Digest
River City Rage at Big Cat Country (another deadbeat SBN blogger)

And now, week two picks:

Sunday
MIA @ ARZ (-6.5)
Pick: Dolphins. Miami is in a better position as an organization than Arizona.
Result: Cardinals. Maybe in the long term yes, the term so long we all will be dust.

CHI @ CAR (-3)
Pick: Panthers. Kyle Orton is in for bad news.
Result: PUSH. The Bears are like the Panthers with no offense.

TEN @ CIN (-1.5)
Pick: Bengals. We love you Vince hurry back.
Result: Titans. Looks like Tennessee does not miss Vince Young in an existential kind of way.

GB (-3) @ DET
Pick: Packers. This is the most obvious pick of the week.
Result: Packers. 48 points? Aaron Rodgers? Brett who?

BAL @ HOU (-4.5)
Pick: Ravens. A game that maybe shouldn't happen played in an empty city. Sounds like a Baltimore home game.
Result: this game was canceled and moved to 9 November because hurricane Ike broke Houston Texans Stadium.

IND (-2) @ MIN
Pick: Colts. If Tony Dungy is the coach we think he is Indianapolis should light em up.
Result: Colts. Tom Brady goes down for the season and all the Colts can be is mediocre. Ain't that a pisser.

BUF @ JAX (-6)
Pick: Jaguars. Jacksonville is the established team in this matchup.
Result: Bills. I am changing my mind on this one for at least as long as Jacksonville's offensive line is hobbled.

OAK @ KC (-4)
Pick: Chiefs. After one game Oakland is totally inept.
Result: Raiders. WOW Kansas City is a bad team.

NYG (-8.5) @ STL
Pick: Giants. St. Louis' learning curve is actually backward bending.
Result: Giants. St. Louis is a little girl in a big town.

NE @ NYJ (-2)
Pick: Patriots. If Bill Belichick is the coach we think he is New England will continue to pwn NYJ.
Result: Patriots. Let the pwnage continue.

PIT (-6) @ CLE
Pick: Steelers. Pittsburgh's offense is not the problem here.
Result: Browns. Two second half field goals huh? Cleveland rocks!

SD (-2.5) @ DEN
Pick: Chargers. If Norval Turner is the coach we think he is [end of line]
Result: Broncos. The fix is in and Norval is doomed this season.

SF @ SEA (-8)
Pick: 49ers. Because Mike Holmgren is the coach we think he is.
Result: 49ers. Proving Stalinist purges at the receiver position ultimately hurt your team.

ATL @ TB (-8)
Pick: Falcons. Because you have to. Account for. Michael. Turner.
Result: Buccaneers. I was wrong about both teams and will adjust my selection strategies accordingly.

NO @ WAS (even)
Pick: Saints. Bet with my head, hope I'm wrong.
Result: Redskins. Haven't been so happy to be wrong since I predicted everyone would have a Segway by 2005.


Monday
PHI @ DAL (-6.5)
Pick: Cowboys. It was the Rams that the Eagles played last week.
Result: Eagles. Damn that was a great game.


Results tallied Tuesday.
