2008 NFL Pick-em: Week 1

[Koko Ed]

Thursday, Sept. 4, 2008
Washington at N.Y. Giants, 7pm
The Giants are not getting the respect they deserve.

Sunday, Sept. 7, 2008
Detroit at Atlanta, 1pm
Atlanta is a disaster.

Cincinnati at Baltimore, 1pm
Cincy is back to being a joke once again. Marvin Lewis deserves better.

Seattle at Buffalo, 1pm
Seattle is hurt. Bills steal one at home.

N.Y. Jets at Miami, 1pm
I don't know how good Farve will be for the Jets but he should be good enough to take Miami.

Kansas City at New England, 1pm
The Patriots get a nice cushy assignment on the path to redemption.

Tampa Bay at New Orleans, 1pm
Take the home team.

St. Louis at Philadelphia, 1pm
Phili should be tough at home. At least til McNabb gets hurt again.

Houston at Pittsburgh, 1pm
Houston is getting better every year. But not beat Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh better.

Jacksonville at Tennessee, 1pm
Jacksonville has a better quarterback and that will be the difference.

Dallas at Cleveland, 4:15pm
Cleveland pulls the upset at home.

Carolina at San Diego, 4:15pm
I still don't believe in Norv Turner but they should be able to deal with the Panthers at home.

Arizona at San Francisco, 4:15pm
Why do I have a feeling I'm going to regret this pick?

Chicago at Indianapolis, 8:15pm
To think this was a Superbowl two years ago. It could be a long time before Superbowl and Chicago Bears will be in the same sentence for a long time.

Monday, Sept. 8, 2008
Minnesota at Green Bay, 7pm
I'm going out on a limb here but I just feel the Pack will push hard to prove they were more than just Brett Farve.

Denver at Oakland, 10:15pm
Denver owns the Raiders. So long as Shanhan is on the Denver sidelines and Davis is in the Raiders owner box that shouldn't change.
