Week 1 picks

topic posted Fri, September 10, 2004 - 5:10 PM by  Jeremy
I started off 1 for 1 with the "over 44" last night. Here are my 4 favorite games this week:

bal -3 CLE
HOU -4.5 SD
ten -3 MIA
PHI -9 nyg

Picking all favorites is kind of sketchy, but what can you do. I love the Baltimore game. Jamal ate the Browns alive last year, and I don't see their defense being any better this year. And what is Jeff Garcia and William Green going to do against the Baltimore D?

Houston's run D worries me a little, but it sounds like the Chargers O-Line could be a train wreck. I think the Houston triplets will have a fun time against the Chargers' D.

The Titans game has me worried because it seems a little too good to be true. I don't see the Fins being able to move the ball, and I'm wondering if they're D isn't going to get old this year. Maybe the Titans D-line will have troubles, but I don't think the Fins will be able to take advantage of it.

The Giants lost their last their last 8 in 2003, the Eagles add T.O. and the Freak. I see a long day for Warner and maybe Eli.

Other games I like, but I'm not convinced of yet:
oak +4 PIT
SF +3.5 atl
NYJ -4.5 cin
det +3 CHI
STL -10.5 ari
maybe
MIN -4.5 dal
gb +3 CAR

What do y'all think? Agree? Disagree?

    Man, 3-2 on my confident picks and 6-1 on my less-confident picks. Isn't that always the way it goes? But I did hit an afternoon parlay of Philly, Minnesota, and SF to put me in the black for the week.

    I'm still amazed that the Browns were able to score 20 on the Ravens, but how come no one mentioned that Ogden and the Raven's center were out??? All I'd been hearing was how the Ravens O-line was intact from last year and ready to roll again.
