Since when do the Titans have an over powering offense? They've scored 13 and 20 in points in their two games. They have a couple mid-level running backs, a dynamic (but overrated) quarterback who still struggles passing and an utter lack of quality WRs or catching TEs. Young is only averaging 5.82 yards/attempts, and only has one passing TD in two games. 33 points in two games is not overpowering by anyone's standards.

I know, and beg to differ. The Colts are one of the best home teams in the league, but have struggled on the road. Last year they were only 4-4 on the road, including losing to all three division opponents (like the Texans). Their biggest road win was 12 points (the Superbowl), and their average road win the past two years is less than TD. Factor in that the Texans are better than the team that beat the Colts last year (even without Andre Johnson, the additions of Ahman Green and Matt Schaub, namely, more than make up for that) and that I don't believe the Colts are as good as last year. Not to mention Matt Schaub's QB rating almost 10 points higher than Manning's atm. Or that Indianapolis is allowing more than 100 more rushing yards/game.

JACOBY JONES PWNS. I should get a bonus point if he has at least 100 yards receiving and a TD in Johnson's absence.

Sunday
Miami at New York Jets
San Diego at Green Bay (although Favre to Driver alllll day long, I hope)
San Francisco at Pittsburgh
Buffalo at New England (Lee Evans will have a big game, though, just because he can't be this bad......can he?)
Minnesota at Kansas City (Will LJ ever wake up?)
Detroit at Philadelphia (I officially reverse this pick if Westbrook starts)
St. Louis at Tampa Bay (I'm not feeling that 2500 yards from scrimmage, SJ.....)
Arizona at Baltimore
Indianapolis at Houston
Jacksonville at Denver
Cleveland at Oakland (Browns haven't won back to back games since 2003... Prove me wrong, guys.)
Cincinatti at Seattle
Carolina at Atlanta
New York Giants at Washington (What the heck?????)
Dallas at Chicago

Monday
Tennessee at New Orleans (Home opener)

I'd take that bet. The secondary is not the weakness of the Colts D-unit. And the pass rush (aka Freeney) will have Schaub running around/on his back.

Might practice today according to some sources and still might play even if he doesn't. So looks like you're taking the Eagles, but you're situational pick is noted.

Re: 2007 NFL Pick-em: Week 3

Sunday
Miami at New York Jets
Jets will pick up there first win
San Diego at Green Bay
Unfortunately the winning streak ends for the Pack with LT
San Francisco at Pittsburgh
Pitt will run all over San Francisco
Buffalo at New England
Do I even have to explain?
Minnesota at Kansas City
Toss up. Minnesota wants to win the NFC North, KC just wants to win
Detroit at Philadelphia
Philly is going to come out hard with the passing and win
St. Louis at Tampa Bay
Bulger is due
Arizona at Baltimore
Everyone greatly underestimates Arizona. They don't have a bad team. Put that with the Raven's injuries and Arizona picks up one on the road
Indianapolis at Houston
Houston's good but the Colts are better
Jacksonville at Denver
Denver's D will shut down the Jags
Cleveland at Oakland
After putting up 52 against a team like Cinncinatti, the only question is how bad Cleveland is going to beat Oakland
Cincinatti at Seattle
Seattle's O will be too much for the Bengal's D. Prediction: After the High scoring matchup last week expect Cinncinatti to score very little
Carolina at Atlanta
Atlanta is nothing without Vick
New York Giants at Washington
New York's season is almost over before in Week 3
Dallas at Chicago
Chicago's D and Grossman pull together for the W

Monday
Tennessee at New Orleans
New Orleans destroys Tennessee in and effort to pick up a first win

WOW! That's bold! Tennessee actually has a defense this year... and a running game. I don't know what's happened to NO, but it doesn't look good for them.

Well I know that Tennessee almost pulled it off against the Colts, but New Orleans has got to be angry after going 0-2 and losing to the Bucs. They want to dispel all ideas of a bad team this year, so they are going to come out strong.

That's just my reasoning, so if NO gets crushed you can laugh at it.
