    Texans over Cowboys. .. Cant decide on this one as the Texans have been playing great on offense, while Dallas is struggling. However, this could go either way as both defenses have not played well.

    Giants over Titans - I am hoping for a Giant win as these GMen need a win to to get back on track after that ugly loss to Eli's bro.

    Chiefs over 49ers - Kansas City is looking like a possible contender to take the AFC West title as they sit as one of those surprising 2-0 teams.


    Monday night should be a great game with the Jets in Miami!

      i have a feeling the cowboys are going to lose again. seriously, if tony romo and all those boys have to call a damn team meeting after two freaking games, then you know something not right in that locker room.

      Chiefs over 49ers isnt much of an upset anymore but I still choose Chiefs.

      Tampa over Pitt.
      Tennessee over Giants

    Hey Wavegirl,

    Believe it or not, I'm no longer interested any sports. I've reached a point where most of them are no longer worth watching.

    But, good luck on your predictions. wink

        Hey Shari, this is going to be the first year I am not going to bother with Dallas. I'm just not interested anymore. I'm not sure what's changed, but working on it.

        I'm going to finish out this season of baseball, considering there is very little left of the season, but I've not watch the game, just read news on it. So, really haven't been all that interested in it either.

        So, I guess this will be my last post to sports forums. Enjoy. hmm

    Since the Chicago Bears are at home, I will take the Bears to Upset Green Bay Monday Night.  The Bears look good right now and the defense is healthy.

    I have to agree with you on the Texans. I want the Cowboys to win, but...The Texan offense is hot and Dallas is not!

    Let's face it, my picks last week were dreadful so I'll dial it back a notch this time around.

    For upset picks:

    I agree with Michael that Chicago can take down Green Bay being that they are at home. I am not guaranteeing anything there, but I will take a risk and pick the Bears.

    The other pick I will go out on a limb with is taking the Seattle Seahawks to upset the San Diego Chargers.

    That Houston/Dallas game is a very intriguing match-up. Although it is not an upset, I will take Houston in that one, although I think people are giving up on the Cowboys too soon. That Andre Johnson guy is pretty good you know wink

    That Dolphins/Jets game is 50/50 for me at the moment. That's a big divisional game here early in the season. The only take I have on that game at the moment is that it will be low-scoring.

    Prediction for Player of the Week: Adrian Peterson (He'll have to be)

      Michael Willisposted 12 years agoin reply to this

      I think Dallas will need their Bye week which week 4 to turn things around. Maybe they will play  well and Houston make mistakes and Dallas get a road win.
      But, I still believe the Cowboys will win the NFC East.

        Cromartie is a riddle.  He looks great one week and awful the next.  Boldin torched him in week 1.

        Shari you made the right pick on the Hawks/ Chargers game. San Diegos special teams are anything but special. But how could I ever be mad at you ? smile

        And I gotta say the Falcons over the Saints had to be a huge upset. But for the last couple of games the Saints have not exactly looked unstoppable.

    Hi Shari and everyone.

    It will be tough fight bet. Dallas and Houston.

    Wishing Steelers will win again!

      I am not a Steeler fan, but it would be a major, major upset in my opinion if Tampa found a way to beat Pittsburgh. The Steeler D is too strong.

      1. Ron Montgomery profile image61
        Ron Montgomeryposted 12 years agoin reply to this

        It will probably come down to turnovers.  The Bucs D is looking strong once again.

        Vikings v. Jets in 2 weeks! Hopefully Miami breaks them down and softens them up a little bit. Haha..J/K.

        Jets/Dolphins will be a good game. I still don't know who will take it.

    Who are these Rams that handled the Washington Redskins? That is a big surprise to me. The Rams have actually competed this year, after not even looking like an NFL caliber team last season. Perhaps Sam Bradford has changed the culture.

        Steve Spagnuolo
        Record: 2-17
        Winning percentage: 10.5%
        All-time NFL Rank: Last

        Haha. All joking aside, kudos to Spags for the win today. He seems to be a decent coach; they just had no talent whatsoever on the team he inherited outside of Steven Jackson. He seems to be taking the Rams in the right direction, especially in beating Mike Shanahan today.
