NFL Picks 2


Last week got us off to a terrific start. It was incredibly fun watching pro football again, especially with games such as Chicago/Cincy or San Fran/Green Bay. Some results shocked us (NYJ over TB or Philly over Washington), but really even those just got us excited. It’s going to be a wild year! As for the point’s competition, Andrew jumped out to an early six-point lead despite having a worse record. Guest poster Judson finished in between us.

Andrew – 102 Points (10-6)
Greg – 96 Points (12-4)

This week, we will begin to see even more which teams are for real. Are the Chiefs really dominant (hosting Dallas)? Is Philly’s offense truly awesome (hosting San Diego)? Is Washington really that bad (at Green Bay)? Who is the real contender between St. Louis and Atlanta (Sunday at 1)? And of course, can Geno Smith win again (at NE on Thursday)? Honestly though all eyes will be on the games late on Sunday… Denver at NYG features the Manning brothers, who both threw for over 450 yards this last week. Then, San Francisco travels to Seattle for an epic NFC West battle, one that features two of the brightest young QB’s in football. Wow!

Below are our picks and confidence points for all the games. Play along in the comment section if you want:

  2. Through Sunday nights game this week's standings are as follow:
    Andrew (12-3) 105 points
    Greg (10-5) 102 points
    Judson (11-4) 88 points

    All 3 have Cincinnati beating Pittsburgh, with Judson having the highest confidence points in it. Either way, the current standings will hold with either a win or a loss by Cincinnati.
