My notes:
Sept. 17 (Thursday Night)
Denver Broncos at Kansas City Chiefs 8:25: Fuck Thursday night games. Double fuck these two teams. KC looked great, Broncos looked bad, division game, blah blah blah.
Sept. 20 (Sunday)
New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills 1: Like the Pats, but we have no idea how good this Bills defense really is. Not interested this early in the year.
Houston Texans at Carolina Panthers 1: Like the Texans a decent amount. Some of the Panthers struggles last week were the Jags playing well. Some of the other struggles was that the Carolina offense isn't good. They'll have a hard time scoring 17 against Houston, and I think Houston can wrack up enough points/turnovers to take care of business.
Arizona Cardinals at Chicago Bears 1: Yeah. The Cardinals D is top 5, and their offense looks good enough to make them a contender this year. The Bears, however, really suck.
San Diego Chargers at Cincinnati Bengals 1: Not interested in either of these teams right now.
Tennessee Titans at Cleveland Browns 1: Battle of two terrible teams.
Detroit Lions at Minnesota Vikings 1: We have no idea who either of these teams are.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at New Orleans Saints 1: Winston makes really, really, really, really bad decisions. He'll make enough good throws to keep them in games, but he's going to cost them a lot of wins this year.
Atlanta Falcons at New York Giants 1: I like the Falcons and I'm not too sold on the Giants. Still, not sure where either of these two teams stand just yet.
San Francisco 49ers at Pittsburgh Steelers 1: I like the Steelers, but not enough to wager a ton of picks on them.
St. Louis Rams at Washington Redskins 1: Redskins offense is putrid and the Rams defense is legit. Cousins may get killed.
Miami Dolphins at Jacksonville Jaguars 4:05: I like the Dolphins D a lot, and I think the O will turn it around.
Baltimore Ravens at Oakland Raiders 4:05: Oakland is very bad again this year.
Dallas Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles 4:25: Pass
Seattle Seahawks at Green Bay Packers 8:30: Pass
Sept. 21 (Monday Night)
New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts 8:30: Pass
I crossed out the games I don't like, I bolded the games I do like, and I left plain the games that I could be swayed on.
Early on, I feel like Arizona over a putrid Bears team is a really good bet. In fact, I think I like that game more than the Saints game. The Bears hung around against GB because GB's defense was porous (no surprise there). I smell blowout with that game.
I think I like:
Arizona - 8
New Orleans - 7
Miami - 2
Baltimore - 2
St. Louis - 2
