Week 1
Week 3

Chicago Bears - I don't like the Bears, but I think the Panthers lucked out against the Chargers and the Bears will likely keep the passing game in check with Steve Smith again. (17-16)

New York Jets - Favre vs... Perhaps if this was Brady he was against i might swing the other way, but Favre against a backup seems one-sided. (24-20)

Baltimore Ravens - What did the Texans do last week? I see the same thing (or lack of something) again this week as Flacco goes 2-0. (17-10)

Pittsburgh Steelers - Week 1 wasn't inspiring for the Browns, and until they prove that last year wasn't a fluke I'm going to assume it was. (27-14)

Philadelphia Eagles - Bit of a stretch, but I think the Eagles Secondary will trouble Romo and hold out in the end. (23-21)

The Chicago Bears- Panthers got lucky last game, Bears will own em.

The New England Patriots- Brady may be out, but Cassel looked pretty good. Also, Patriots Secondary lookin nice, Farve will have a bit of trouble probably. Just because Bradys out dosn't mean we can't throw deep to Moss. Also, we got Welker for those 1st down needs ;D

The Baltimore Ravens- I could really care less about this game, but I say Raven will win it.

The Cleveland Browns- I hate the Steelers, so Go Browns this week.

The Philadelphia Eagles- Just guessing. I say it will be a close one.

Not a bad start for this season, but lets try again for that perfect 5-0

Chicago at Carolina- Both teams pulled massive upsets in week 1 against two potential Superbowl contenders. The winner of this game will be off to a great start and can potentially take an early lead in their division with a win on Sunday. I think Carolina is better suited for this one.
WINNER- CAROLINA PANTHERS

New England at N.Y. Jets- Brady is out for the season, and already Patriot bandwagon jumpers are jumping off. Many are already calling the Jets the new front runner to win the division, And though the Patriots stocks are dropping, It's still too early to determine if this boat will truly sink.
WINNER- NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS

Baltimore at Housten- The Ravens got off to a good start against a poor team, while the Texans got off to a poor start against a great team. I think the Texans are still a good team on paper that will push for a spot in the playoffs down the road, and a win against an unstable Ravens teams could be their jumpstart.
WINNER- HOUSTEN TEXANS

Pittsburgh at Cleveland- Before the Pre-season, I had the Browns down for winning the division, but after week one only one of these teams performed like a division champion would.
WINNER- PITTSBURGH STEELERS

Philadelphia at Dallas- Donovan McNabb looked great on sunday, but it's easy to look that good against a Rams team that is arguably the worst team in the NFL right now. The road to the Superbowl on the NFC side still runs through Dallas in my opinion.
WINNER- DALLAS COWBOYS
