Countdown to Kickoff - Week #1

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!

Thursday night we were treated to an amazing kickoff to the 2011 NFL season. Would not be surprised if the Packers and Saints play each other in late January. Now it's time to take a quick look at Sunday games. Lots already written out there if you read Grantland, Walterfootball.com, or any NFL site but we will try to bring you our best bets:

Tennessee (+1) @ JACKSONVILLE
We like the Titans because they didn't fire their starting QB less than a week before the season starts.

Pittsburgh (+1.5) @ BALTIMORE
We like the Steelers because of their lightning quick receivers and solid D. Expecting the Ravens to take a step back this year and struggle to be a wildcard team.

ST. LOUIS (+4.5) vs Philadelphia
We like the Rams because the Eagles are over-rated. Eagles o-line is shaky and their young LBs are too so expect Vick needing to run a lot and we like the Rams to pull a mini upset in week 1.

WASHINGTON (+3) vs Giants
We like the Redskins because there is too much bad mojo surrounding the G-men. Washington appears to have a running game and Injuries keep mounting in New York. Taking the live dog which is a trend with our picks this week.

New England (-7) @ MIAMI
We like the Patriots because the fish will be terrible. Expecting Coach Sporano to be the first NFL coach fired this year and the Patriots should be the class of the AFC East.

In other leans this week we like San Diego and Atlanta to cover their games. Going back and forth on Lions vs TB but leaning Bucs at home (-1) with the small spread.

Good luck this week! Let's do some damage to the books!
