2006 NFL pick em Week 1

[Logan Byers]

Thursday
Miami at Pittsburgh: QB not a concern for Cowher against an aging Defense. Running game and D give Pittsburgh the edge.

Sunday
Atlanta at Carolina: Panthers great all around. ATL not as versatile (Running and good D).
Baltimore at Tampa Bay: Great Defenses. Offensive advantage - Baltimore
Buffalo at New England: Buffalo's only positive - McGahee at RB.
Cincinnati at Kansas City: With Palmer, great O. But Johnson could run and keep Cincinnati O off of the field. Close game.
Denver at St. Louis: Denver always has a running game. Not sure what StL will have with a new head coach.
New Orleans at Cleveland: Not sure what to expect from these two.
N.Y. Jets at Tennessee: Flip a coin.
Philadelphia at Houston: Houston still a bottom-feeder.
Seattle at Detroit: No Madden Curse or post-Super Bowl depression... yet.
Chicago at Green Bay: Obvious advantage for da Bears.
Dallas at Jacksonville: Another Defensive match-up. Again offensive advantage wins - Dallas.
San Francisco at Arizona: Offense to good to overlook.
Indianapolis at N.Y. Giants: Battle of Mannings. 2 great teams, super-bowl calibur. Could go either way.

Monday
Minnesota at Washington: Washington with an advantage all around
San Diego at Oakland: San Diego wins because of Gates and LT.
