Week Two Picks

Dolphins-Bills
The pick: Dolphins
Lions-Panthers
We know that the Giants are terrible, but the Lions still looked pretty good on Monday. The Panthers are a big regression candidate and I'm still not sure Newton's good to go.
The pick: Lions
Saints-Browns
The pick: Saints
Falcons-Bengals
Man, did Matt Ryan look good last week. The Falcons are back. Ryan's the most fun QB in the league to watch in the last two minutes. Nobody looks less fazed. On the other side of the ball, Desmond Trufant can keep A.J. Green in check. Although I'm a huge Andy Dalton fan. I'm not sure I'm a huge fan of him for the money he's getting, but people like to ignore the fact that he brought the Bengals to the playoffs four times. (In other words, three more times than every quarterback picked ahead of him) Don't give up on him.
The pick: Falcons
Cowboys-Titans
The pick: Cowboys
Jaguars-Washington
The pick: Jaguars
Patriots-Vikings
Sigh.... This was going to be the year. The defense looked good for the first time since about 2009, Bridgewater looked good, Smith was healthy, and it all came back to AD. Now, barring some miracle of him only getting suspended a few games it's over. Goodell was humiliated over the result of the Ray Rice fiasco, he's going to want to come down hard to Peterson to reassert his dominance. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to wander into traffic.
The pick: Patriots
Cardinals-Giants
The pick: Cardinals
Seahawks-Chargers
The pick: Seahawks
Rams-Buccaneers
The pick: Bucs
Chiefs-Broncos
If you read my picks from last week, you'll know how I feel about the Chiefs. Now they're shorthanded. Peyton had a field day last week against the Colts. Now he's facing a defense without Derrick Johnson and Mike DeVito. I would feel sorry for Chiefs fans, but as a Vikings fan I'm incapable of feeling sorry for any team.
The pick: Broncos
Jets-Packers
The pick: Packers
Texans-Raiders
The pick: Texans
Bears-49ers
The pick: Niners
Colts-Eagles
Everyone's been talking about the Eagles amazing comeback all week. Here's what nobody mentions: It was against the Jaguars. It was impressive but not to the extent that anybody should take them over Andrew Luck and the Colts looking for their first win of the season. This one's easy.
The pick: Colts
