And they tried to make us watch the Little League World Series...

Football, Football, Football!

This season I will make picks for each complete slate of games week by week, all the while keeping a record of my successes and failures, in the vein of a guy who gets paid to do it. I'm not promising to be as savvy as John Clayton, only to be less swarmy looking than him by the end of the year.

Week 1:
(Home team in caps, duh---and my pick for each game will be in the left column)

NYG (-7) vs Carolina

Miami (-3) vs BUFFALO

Atlanta (-1.5) vs PITTSBURGH

Detroit (+6.5) vs CHICAGO

NEW ENGLAND (-5) vs Cincinnati

TAMPA BAY (-3) vs Cleveland

Indianapolis (-2.5) vs HOUSTON

Oakland (+6.5) vs Tennessee

PHILADELPHIA (+3) vs Green Bay

SEATTLE (+3) vs San Francisco

ST LOUIS (+3.5) vs Arizona

WASHINGTON (+3.5) vs Dallas

Baltimore (+2) vs NYJ

KANSAS CITY (+5) vs San Diego

Push: JACKSONVILLE (-3) vs Denver


Upset picks of the week (underdog to straight win):

Seattle, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington, Kansas City

I-95 corridor bias notwithstanding, it'll happen.

Biggest blowout of the week: NYG over Carolina, followed by Miami over Buffalo
