How are things in Minnesota? Who is going to be their QB? Last year they brought in Ponder after McNabb showed that he isn't up to the task anymore. Jacksonville is another very weak team from last year. I think I've read that they are sticking with... Gabbert?

Anyway, the Vikings look to have the more capable offense, but the Jaguars have a solid defense (or at least they had last year). It's just that their offense was horrible.

Carolina @ Tampa Bay is another one of those games with two bad teams from last year. I suppose the Panthers will continue to bank on Newton, but I have no idea how much (if at all) the Bucs improved.

Eh, it's week 1. In general, I am just going to pick teams based on last season's final standings and in the cases where I am undecided I will pick who I want to win. Or better yet, I'll just copy-paste ljigga's predictions.

The Vikings are still going with Ponder.  An ancient Donovan McNabb would probably be a better option.  Jacksonville is going with Gabbert agian.  Also their best player, Maurice Jones-Drew, is still holding out for a contract.  Things do not look good for either of those teams in my opinion.  The Jaguars do have a pretty solid defense though as you said.

I'll let you figure out the Carolina @ Tampa game.

Copying ljigga's picks is always a good option.
