2006 NFL pick em Week 1

[Koko Ed]

Thursday
Miami at Pittsburgh
I don't know why everyone is so high on Culpepper. The guy is a turnover machine. He'll give the Steelers one free one, at least.

Sunday
Atlanta at Carolina
The Panthers are a Superbowl favorite and they should figure out how to handle Vick by now.

Baltimore at Tampa Bay
This will be a low scoring contest. Take the home team.

Buffalo at New England
The Patriots will miss Branch but in reality Buffalo has no chance in this one at all.

Cincinnati at Kansas City
This might be the highest scoring game of the year. Edwards will have the Chiefs hyped up to take it at home and I think the Bengals are overhyped.

Denver at St. Louis
The Rams are no longer the greatest show on turf.

New Orleans at Cleveland
Haven't the citizens of New Orleans suffered enough? The Browns win with defense.

N.Y. Jets at Tennessee
Who in New York and Tennessee angered GOd enough to make them have to watch this train wreck? When in doubt take the home team.

Philadelphia at Houston
Everyone is so quick to write off the Eagles becaue TO went away. They're still way better than the Texans.

Seattle at Detroit
A tougher training camp does not take the place of a significant talent deficiency. The Lions get stomped.

Chicago at Green Bay
The last thing Farve needs to see is an opportunistic agressivve defesne that knows him wellIt'll be interesting to see who Farve throws more TD passes to, his own team or the Bears.

Dallas at Jacksonville
Dallas is getting alot of hype but I aint buying it yet. Jacksonville plays tough defense and Taylor is healthy for now.

San Francisco at Arizona
For one week Arizona will live up to the hype.

Indianapolis at N.Y. Giants
This'll be a fun game to watch but the Colts are good at playing tough in the regular season so they'll get out of New York with a late field goal victory.

Monday
Minnesota at Washington
I see no good reason to take the Vikings over the Redskins.

San Diego at Oakland
Like Art Shell is gonna make the Raiders good again all by himself.
