Week 3 Football Central Power Picks

Yup -- I surprised myself (Jae) with the Jets pick this week, while generally staying with the favorites. The obvious mismatches are Cutler & Bears WRs vs. the pair of safeties that are playing corners for Rex, but I think Mornhinweg will continue to pound the ball behind CJ, Ivory, and Powell to get a big leverage on the ToP.
Plus, Geno Smith has cut down on his TO/Game ratio in the young season and with the home field advantage, I am giving a slight advantage to the Gang Green. They'll need it, because the Bears game kicks off a gauntlet that goes through vs. Lionshome (loss), @ Chargers (loss), vs. Broncos (loss), @ Pats (loss) before easing up a bit with Bills & Chiefs.
If the Gang Green blow it on MNF, it is not hard to imagine a 1-6 Jets team after the Pats game. They'll need to take care of the Bears & the Lions to go 3-3 and have any realistic shot at the wild card.
