Arkaign Predicts:
|
GB/ATL and PHI/DAL should be awesome. NE/BUF could be a sleeper.
Arizona can nail the shuffling zombie Panthers into their football coffin this weekend.
Stafford's heroics should prevail over Houston's pile of injuries (worse than Detroits after the beating from the Broncos)
I'm a little concerned over Seattle being able to beat the Saints tbh, but maybe the Saints toilet-paper defense is just what the dr. ordered for the Hawks.
Redskins/Bengals is one of those games that could be great, or could be absolute dumpster-fire material. If pumpkinhair and AJ green are on point, they shoudl win. Josh Norman being banged up tilted this one to Bengals for me.
Jax/Ten = bleh. Jets/Browns = bleh. Min/Chicago = hahah. KC/Indy = meh.
Oh yeah, SD/Denver could be fun. Philip Rivers is underrated imho. The rest of his team is .. well, it's something I guess. Denver isn't very fun to watch by comparison. Denver and the Vikings both seem very similar to me : awesome defensive talent, and a snore to watch on offense. The Broncos are LESS terrible offensively though, with some legitimate weapons. Trevor Simian is not great, no matter how good the utterly ER-worthy Texans defense made him look, but if he can step it up a notch or two, the Broncos may be the only team in the AFC capable of meeting the Patriots on their own terms. I don't trust the Steelers at all, and this talk about trimming torn meniscus in Burger's knee ... ehh, I don't think that bodes well for the Steelers.
I bet the prediction league overall does hugely better this week :) The Falcons and Vikings losing (even though I knew I should have picked the Eagles) really made the whole league look bad. For that to happen this week, the Patriots, Vikings, and Jets would have to lose their games LOL :D
