Redskins 7 @ Giants 16

jeremy.jpg
Jeremy
There's two types of articles you can count on every year. One type declaring the previous years' Super Bowl winner like the 7th best team, and another wondering why the reigning champs "Aren't getting any love"
sarah.jpg
Sarah
Super Bowl Champs - the Giants? They're without a few key players this year so we'll see how it goes. It's good to be doing picks again!
matt.jpg
Matt
Football is dumb.
jon.jpg
Jon
Last year I picked Eli Manning, Plaxico Burress, and Brandon Jacobs for my fantasy team.
They won the Super Bowl. I got tenth place.

As far as I'm concerned this game is, at best, the third most interesting sports event going on this night.
1. U.S. Open (Djokovic vs. Roddick, Federer vs. Muller, etc.)
2. Twins vs. Blue Jays

Bears 29 @ Colts 13

jeremy.jpg
Jeremy
The Bears still suck. Injuries hit them hard last year, but it still surprised me to find out they were actually one of the worst defenses in the league last year.
sarah.jpg
Sarah
I'm really hoping Peyton doesn't start this game so Favre's streak will become impossible to break.
matt.jpg
Matt
It's on like Donkey Kong.
jon.jpg
Jon
If I had any confidence in Chicago and if they were the home team, I'd think harder about going with them. But I don't and they aren't, so I'm not.

Vikings 19 @ Packers 24

jeremy.jpg
Jeremy
It's an exciting beginning, but I think I'd like a while for the season to sink in before the Packer/Viking games. You just don't get all that into the first couple games because you're still in preseason mode.
sarah.jpg
Sarah
I don't even know what to think about this season. I'll be watching the Jets on Sunday, that's fo' sure. A-Rod had better not @#%^ this up.
matt.jpg
Matt
It seems a little anticlimactic to have this game week one.
jon.jpg
Jon
Can you believe it was 10 years ago that we witnessed the offensive season for the ages? Here's to you Jake Reed, Cris Carter, Randy Moss, Robert Smith, Jeff Christy, Randall Cunningham, Brad Johnson, Randall McDaniel and the rest of the offensive line and everyone else, not to mention John Randle and the rest of the defense that did a great job, and Gary Anderson and Mitch Berger, and everyone else. Denny Green, you never seemed to get the respect, but you've got it here.

Now let's go run all over Green Bay in Lambeau on Monday night, just like we did 10 years ago!

Broncos 41 @ Raiders 14

jeremy.jpg
Jeremy
Who thought this was a good idea?
sarah.jpg
Sarah
Maybe the Raiders have all the right players this year, then again maybe not.
matt.jpg
Matt
I'd rather sleep.
jon.jpg
Jon
I don't like the chances of either of these teams. Is there a "none of the above" option? No? I'll go with the team that's not Oakland.

There was a problem
The password is incorrect. (Error #109)

Jeremy already said it, but I felt compelled to try it anyway- just like back in school when 20 kids were waiting outside a closed door and everyone still had to give the knob a twist.

OK, I'm gonna go ahead and start talking about the game tonight.

Can you believe it's here?
OK, I guess I can. But the whole thing is somewhat surreal. I mean, we've been talking about this game for months. And not just us, the national sports media. As far as strange buildups to week 1 games go, this is right up there on the list. Not to mention the fact that it's already a local rivalry and it's coming at the last part of this drawn out opening week. We've had two opening days, but no Viking or Packer games and football doesn't even seem like it's really started yet. The whole thing feels weird to me.

And let's face it, the main character in this drama is the one guy who's not going to be there. But oh, will he be mentioned. One of the worst aspects about nationally televised games is that all they do is rehash the same stuff every game about each team and leave the actual story lines of the game to float out into the ether. But you know what? For now, I'm not going to focus on how they'll probably ruin the game for everyone. OK, not everyone. That one guy who is watching his first football game ever might really enjoy them rehashing every single aspect of the story we all lived through this s
