Texans (+3) over PANTHERS
In what
will amount to a reenactment of football in the 1930s, we’ll take the points.
SAINTS (-10) over Buccaneers
We
don’t feel warm and fuzzy about backing the Saints as double-digit favorites,
but it would be even scarier to back the Bucs under any circumstances after
last week’s debacle.
STEELERS (-7) over 49ers
At
first glance, this line is too high, but you have to dig deeper to make peace
with it. Pittsburgh will have had 10 days off and gets to play at home. San
Francisco played in a game that started at 10:15 eastern time Monday night, and
then has to travel cross-country to play at 1pm (10am Pacific, for those of you
not paying attention) Sunday.
VIKINGS (-2) over Lions
Minnesota
will reestablish themselves as wildcard contenders in their home opener.
Patriots (-1) over BILLS
Buffalo
will dominate for three quarters before finding a way to blow it and lose by 3.
BEARS (+2) over Cardinals
We
predicted the Cardinals would go 6-10. No Credentials will bank on that prediction
for one more week and take the points.
BROWNS (+2) over Titans
Two
words…Johnny Fucking Football. Also, people are overreacting after Tennessee’s
win over Tampa Bay.
Chargers (+3.5) over BENGALS
I don’t
know if San Diego wins, but the extra half point on this line is disrespectful
to Philip Rivers.
REDSKINS (+3.5) over Rams
St.
Louis has a history of playing down to it’s competition, and Washington wasn’t
horrendous in Week 1.
Falcons (+2) over GIANTS
So a
week after an epic choke job (even Tony Romo said, “Man the Giants fucked up
the end of that game”), New York is favored against a decent Falcons squad?
Ravens (-7) over RAIDERS
In
McGloin we do not trust.
Dolphins (-6) over JAGUARS
Miami
took care of business on the road last week against an inferior opponent, and
we think they do it again in Jacksonville.
Cowboys (+5.5) over EAGLES
If
Romo pulls this one out, we can start up some MVP chatter.
PACKERS (-3.5) over Seahawks
On
one hand, this line should be PACKERS (-3). On the other, I think Green Bay
wins. So…ya.
COLTS (-7) over Jets
Indy got kicked in the teeth last week, but they will bounce back at home.
Week 1 = 8-7-1
Thursday = 0-1 (second straight bullshit cover on
Thursday Night Football)
Spread Picks By Team
In a new
weekly installment, each week I’ll update my record of picking games for each
team. For example, I picked the Colts to cover in Buffalo. They got
annihilated, so I lost. Conversely, I picked the Seahawks to lose at St. Louis.
That did happen, so my pick is a win. You get the idea.
Dolphins = 1-0
Jets = 1-0
Browns = 1-0
Texans = 1-0
Chargers = 1-0
Eagles = 1-0
Redskins = 1-0
Packers = 1-0
Vikings = 1-0
Lions = 1-0
Bears = 1-0
Falcons = 1-0
Seahawks = 1-0
Rams = 1-0
49ers = 1-0
Chiefs = 1-1
Patriots = 0-0-1
Steelers = 0-0-1
Bills = 0-1
Ravens = 0-1
Bengals = 0-1
Colts = 0-1
Jaguars = 0-1
Titans = 0-1
Raiders = 0-1
Cowboys = 0-1
Giants = 0-1
Saints = 0-1
Buccaneers = 0-1
Panthers = 0-1
Cardinals = 0-1
Broncos = 0-2
