2 Guys NFL 2011 Week 2 Preview and Picks

Columns, Top Story

Welcome to 2 Guys Talking About the NFL’s Week 2 of this year.  In this column we’ll be previewing all the games of the week and making picks against the spread.  Hope you like and check out Sliced Spread  for CB’s look at the week to come, as well.  Without further ado…

 

KYLE FITTA:
Oakland Raiders+3 (-105) vs. Buffalo Bills -3 (-115)

 

AARON GLAZER:
So, both of these teams looked great last week, but the Bills destroyed a playoff team so they give points.  That about the long and short of it?

 

KYLE FITTA:
Being at home and getting 3 points basically says the game is even. However, I don’t find this game as even as they’re saying it is. While Oakland had a mild upset over Broncos, let’s face it, that Broncos team isn’t very good at all. Plus, Oakland was 6-0 against their division last year, so obviously they had their number from the get go. Bills wins was more impressive. They beat a team that people thought were up and coming and possibly going to win the division again in a blowout.
win*

 

AARON GLAZER:
I don’t really trust the Bills here – I feel like Oakland has more talent – but, well where the hell did last week come from?  These guys were terrible last year.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Terrible? Or just slightly unlikely? The Bills played some teams really tough but couldn’t finish the game. The Bills lost to KC in OT last year 13-10, against the Steelers 19-16 in OT, Bears 22-19, and Ravens 3 points. I don’t think the Bills were ever terrible. More so inconsistent.
In fact, that Ravens game I believe they were up 20 something points – and they ended up losing another OT again.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Well, that certainly makes their division interesting, as now it has no bad team.

 

KYLE FITTA:
How to say right now being the first week. I don’t see Miami finishing above .500, though.

 

AARON GLAZER:
I don’t think Miami or the Bills end up with very good records, but that’s as much a testament to the Jets and Patriots as an insult to them.  Either way, I think the Raiders make the playoffs, and I’m not sure the Bills beat them, but they play everyone close enough for me to take the points.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Glazer’s Pick: Oakland Raiders – 3.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Although I said this game doesn’t seem too even and the spread should be higher, I like Oakland too. Although I think losing Tom Cable was a major blow to this team, I really liked how they finished the end of the season last year and the way they played last week, beating Denver badly at line of scrimmage . Buffalo last year was terrible against the run, and I believe Oakland really run on them easily with their weapons in the run game. When you can run the ball, you create the tempo of the game and it also makes your team unpredictable on offense. Oakland wins a close one 20-17.
Fitta’s Pick: Oakland Raiders+3

 

KYLE FITTA:
Kansas City+9.5 vs. Detroit Lions

 

AARON GLAZER:
This is one crazy line.  A week ago it would be far closer to even, no?

 

KYLE FITTA:
I agree. A week ago it would’ve been about even. However, I think Vegas has finally found out that Lions might be legit.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Right, but that’s a huge line after one week!  The Lions almost certainly win… and they can go long on the Chiefs at will, and their defense is great… crap, I’m talking myself into Detroit here.

 

KYLE FITTA:
I’ll take Detroit too straight up, but I believe KC will rebound nicely in this game, making it a close game. I’ll say Lions by a touchdown, 24-17. Never thought I’d ever say Lions will be 2-0.
Fitta’s Pick: Kansas City Chiefs + 9.5

 

AARON GLAZER:
I want to take Detroit, but after 1 week, the smart money is on KC, even with the best member of their secondary out.
Glazer’s Pick: KC Chiefs +9.5

 

KYLE FITTA:
Baltimore Ravens-6 vs. Tennesee Titans

 

AARON GLAZER:
The Titans can play the Ravens close, no?

 

KYLE FITTA:
Nah. I thought this might be a trap game, but the spread makes total sense since Ravens aren’t at home. I think Ravens run on the Titans. I thought Titans had a great shot of beating the Jags last week, but they couldn’t even do that. I’ve watched football for a long time and I never seen any team beat Steelers that bad. Ravens are the most complete team right now in the NFL. With Chris Johnson only rushing for 24 yards, you must think Titans are going to have a lot of three and outs with Raven’s defense.

 

AARON GLAZER:
I trust the Ravens a lot less than you. 7 turnovers from the Steelers is an anomoly I’m not drawing conclusions from.  I don’t think either team is all that effective against the other and this is a slow, defensive contest.  I’ll take the points.
Glazer’s Pick: The Tennessee Titans +6

 

KYLE FITTA:
Those weren’t all give me turnovers. The Ravens mostly earned those turnovers. Even if they gave those turnovers back, they would’ve still won that game. The Steeler’s defense was winded and dragging via trying to keep up to the Raven’s offense. I like a lot what the Raven’s done with their offensive line as they really protected Joe Flacco, giving him a lot of time to hit his top caliber WRS and allowing Ray Rice and Ricky Williams to have a very solid game as a duo. I really don’t see Titans offense keeping up, either. With their QB being held together with duck tape and glue and their running back not getting enough practice during the off-season because of his hold out, I don’t see Titans scoring a TD. 30-9 Ravens.
Fitta’s Pick: Baltimore Ravens-6

 

KYLE FITTA:
Cleveland Browns-2.5 vs. Indianapolis Colts

 

AARON GLAZER:
So, the Browns win here or they’ll never beat anyone.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Man, I thought the Browns were going to be a good team this year. Losing to the (projected) worst team in the NFL wasn’t a good start. But I like the Browns. Colt’s defense (aside from their d-ends) is just terrible. Peyton Hillis is a hard-nose, in-your-face runner. Expect him to have a big game, eating up this Colt’s defense.

 

AARON GLAZER:
The Colts look terrible, and they’re horrible disheartened by not having Peyton.  The Browns will try and the Colts won’t.  I think the Browns will recover.

Glazer’s Pick: Cleveland Browns – 2

 

KYLE FITTA:
I like the Browns in this game. Without Manning, Colts are a lost cause. In fact, I’d say they are the least talented team when Manning is out. Even with Collins being an decent QB, he cannot elevate this team. Their blocking is bad. The only reason they didn’t give up many sacks last year was because Manning was quick to get rid of the ball. They have no running game. The only reason they weren’t dead last year was because Manning’s deep ball threat opened up draw plays. And they’re defense is just awful. The only reason they weren’t that bad last year was because Manning knew how to slowly drive down the feild. In other words, this team is screwed without Manning. Browns 30 Colts 17
Fitta’s Pick: Browns- 2.5

 

Tampa Bay Buccaneers+3 vs. Minnesota Vikings

 

AARON GLAZER:
The game so far I’m least sold on.  Whoever loses here is in a big hole and both teams are better than they looked last week.  Tampa is young and growing, so I’d guess they take the next step to relevance, while the older Vikings end up washed up.  That just might be my hope though.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Well, since you’re a Packers fans, I can see why.

 

AARON GLAZER:
What do you think?

 

KYLE FITTA:
I like the Buccaneers. The Lions are a legit team, one that Buccaneers despite having a horrible day on offense, almost overcame and won. Vikings played Chargers close and all, but I have a few words to describe why – start of the season as well as special teams to boot. The Chargers always struggle there and that’s why I believe Vikings played them close. I also don’t even find Chargers to be all that great this year. I believe Buccaneers will get their run game going against the Vikings, opening up the pass much more for Josh Freeman, who will have another great game. McNabb will play better and put up some numbers and AP will have another solid game. However, I just don’t think it will be enough. All around, Buccaneers are the better team and they aren’t a turnover heavy team. That said, I like Tampa Bay in a close won 20-17.

 

AARON GLAZER:
I don’t think McNabb is as bad as he showed last week, but I’ll still take the points with Tampa by.
Glazer’s Pick: Tampa Bay +3

 

KYLE FITTA:
He’s not, but he isn’t close to what he was before. I think it was a bad pick up by the Vikings.
Fitta’s Pick: Tampa Bay+3

 

Chicago Bears+7 vs. New Orleans Saints

 

AARON GLAZER:
The Saints are totally winning this… but 7?  Sheez.

 

KYLE FITTA:
They’re really slapping Bears in the face with this spread. Here’s a team that’s been doubted since last year. They got to the NFC championship game, losing only by a TD to the Superbowl winners. They were an underdog against the Falcons, who were blown out by Greenbay last year at home and did nothing over the off-season, and they murder them badly. No respect for this Bears team.

 

AARON GLAZER:
The Bears have to cover, then.  Except… Brian Urlacher’s mother died.  And I hate to use this, but it’s true.  He’s the heart of the defense and if he’s not playing or his head’s not in the game…

 

KYLE FITTA:
On the other hand, it may be a boost to him. I know its an iffy subject to talk about, but look at Bret Farve when his dad died. He ended up having a monster game.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Right, but there’s no guarantee he even plays.  I don’t know.  I’d probably not bet here for comfort, but if I am, I’m betting he’s distracted and it makes a huge difference.

 

KYLE FITTA:
It’s a 50-50 thing. We all know he’s the heart and soul of this defense.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Glazer’s Pick: The New Orleans Saints -7.  Between Urlacher and Cutler handling those blitzes…

 

KYLE FITTA:
Although I don’t see the Saints going 0-2 as they’re one of the best teams this year, I believe the Bears will play them close. I never give Bears any credit for anything they do. Now I am going to give them some credit (of course they’ll now lose because so). They have problems on the offensive side of the ball. The offensive line, of course, being the biggest flaw. However, I don’t think Saints are a good pash rush team, so I think that flaw will not be exposed that badly in this game. Like I said, I like the Saints here; they’re offense is bar none one of the best in the league, especially now since they’ve established a running game, but Bears play hard and cover. Saints 27 Bears 24.
Fitta’s Pick: Bears+7

 

KYLE FITTA:
Jacksonville+9.5 vs. New York Jets

 

AARON GLAZER:
I like Jacksonville.  The Jets rarely crush anyone, and Mark Sanchez?  No fear.  The Jets win – 9.5 is way too much.

 

KYLE FITTA:
You think Jets have concerns from the game last week or Dallas Cowboys are back on track?

 

AARON GLAZER:
The Cowboys are decent and will end up in the playoffs given a weak NFC Wildcard field. Jacksonville isn’t good, but they’re solid enough to not get destroyed.

 

KYLE FITTA:
I agree with you that Jacksonville isn’t that bad to get blown out by the Jets. However, I think the Jets are good enough to score 10 more points than the Jacksonville. Running the ball on Jets is a tough thing to do. I don’t expect them to be picking up 4.0 yard per run, so that puts a lot of pressure on McCown against a good defense. I don’t think he’ll get it done. Jets 20 Jags 10.
done*

 

AARON GLAZER:
Even if it’s backdoor scores and Mark Sanchez silly interceptions, 10 more points is a lot.  I see it more as 7 or 8, and will stick with Jacksonville.
Glazer’s Pick: The Jacksonville Jaguars +9.5

 

KYLE FITTA:
Backdoor scores are going to be hard for McCown to get against this Jets’ defense.
Fitta’s Pick: New York Jets+9.5

 

Seattle Seahawks+14.5 vs. Pittsburg Steelers

 

AARON GLAZER:
That’s a silly amount if points to go against.

 

KYLE FITTA:
It’s high, but I see why. Steelers have a huge chip on their shoulder, and Seahawks aren’t going to be ready for this game at all. No need to go in-depth on this one. Steelers win it 30-10.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Fitta’s Pick: Pittsburg Steelers-14.5

 

AARON GLAZER:
I’ll almost never go against a line this big.  I’ll take the points and go home happy, or better, put the Seahawks into a 3-team tease and know I’m safe. Either way…Seahawks lose and have a ton of room to cover.
Glazer’s Pick: Seatle Seahawks +14.5

 

KYLE FITTA:
Arizona Cardinals+4 vs. Washington Redskins

 

KYLE FITTA:
You want to hear a bold prediction?

 

AARON GLAZER:
Sure.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Redskins win their divison.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Ha, okay, no, but seriously, what is it?

 

KYLE FITTA:
I’m being serious. I know Giants had a lot of injuries, but some of the key ones are out for the season ones, and I loved how the Redskins played out that game. They beat Giants off the line and simply over powered them. Plus, they played very safe, only giving up one turnover on a broken play.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Rex Grossman.  There’s my counter.  I don’t even think the Skins can beat Arizona.  Kolb is a good QB and they’ll just straight outscore them.  As soon as the Cards go up, it’s on Grossman, and, well, that’s that.

 

KYLE FITTA:
I think your underrating Rex Grossman. Last year he did well, and he played an impressive game last week. I also love their defense and they’ve established a running game. I don’t see Giants being all that good this year….and won’t be until they make a coaching change, Cowboys are the Cowboys, and the Eagles always choke at the end of the season.

 

AARON GLAZER:
The Giants, with their injuries, will be the worst team in football this year, at least until everyone comes back.
Eagles will make the playoffs as the #1 seed.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Even if the Eagles don’t choke, I like Redskins earning a wildcard spot.

 

AARON GLAZER:
I think that’s Dallas’ spot.

Glazer’s Pick: The Arizona Cardinals +4

 

KYLE FITTA:
Redskins win this game. I am not sold on Kolb, his team, or their unimpressive win against the Panthers. Skins 23-10

Fitta’s Pick: The Washington Redskins -4

 

Greenbay Packers-10 vs. Carolina Panthers

 

AARON GLAZER:
Well, I like the Packers.  If they beat the Saints by 8, they can beat the Panthers by 10.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Basically. Cam Newton played a great game against the Cards, but that Cards defense is turrible as Barkley would say. They played a basic defense last game, plus they have no talent on their D. That said, Greenbay will put their foot on Panthers’ throat early. Once you hear the announcers say, “Cam Newton is already down 14; he needs to do something here”, you know as a Panther fan you’re not in good shape. Packers have a great QB that has a billion people to throw to and a defense led by Don Campers.

 

AARON GLAZER:
I like this game as a confidence builder for our secondary.  We should be able to confuse the rookie and get some turnovers.
I’m, by the way, in no way objective about Packers games, but this should be a win and cover.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Well, maybe they’ll get their confidence back a little, but the Saints really laced them and they were lucky Rodgers and that offense were able to stay that hot. This team must step up to the plate and play great defense like they did last year, because Greenbay’s offense aren’t going to put up monster numbers like that every single game, especially when it starts getting late down the season and the weather is getting colder.
May I make another bold prediction?

 

AARON GLAZER:
Rodgers really will put up similar numbers almost every week.
Sure, but hope it’s better than the skins one.

 

KYLE FITTA:
The Lions will beat the Packers this season.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Oh, that seems likely.  They play on Thanksgiving and New Years Day.  I’m guessing a win on the latter.

 

AARON GLAZER:
So, we agree here?
Glazer’s Pick: Green Bay Packers -10

 

KYLE FITTA:
Yeah, I like the Packers here. It’s really not a contest for them. Packers 30 Panthers 7. But yeah, I really like that Lion’s defensive line a lot. I think they’re going to beat a lot of offensive lines.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Fitta’s Pick: The “Thank god we got rid of Bret Farve” Green Bay Packers

 

KYLE FITTA:
Dallas Cowboys-3 (-115) vs. San Fransico 49ers (-105)

 

AARON GLAZER:
The Niners still aren’t good.  I mean, they’ll score on Dallas, but Romo has enough to stop them, no?

 

KYLE FITTA:
Romo needs to prove that he can get it done. I think this is a good game to do just that. Two things you need in this league: a QB and a defense. Could you even say 49ers have a par at best defense or QB?

 

AARON GLAZER:
Their defense is below average not terrible.  I dislike the Cowboys, but this should be an easy win and cover – or as easy as you get on the road.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Glazer’s Pick: The Dallas Cowboys

 

KYLE FITTA:
Yeah, they gave up 219 yards against the Shithawks… I think Cowboys are more than capable to put up 350-400 yards on them. I really like how they looked on offense against the Jets. And I don’t even think Romo needs to not choke in the 4th, because they’ll just need to sit on the ball.
Cowboys 24 49ers 13
Fitta’s Pick: Dallas Cowboys-3

 

Cincinnati Bengals +3.5 vs. Denver Broncos

 

AARON GLAZER:
The Broncos aren’t as bad as they looked last week, while the Bengals aren’t nearly as good as they looked last week.

 

KYLE FITTA:
I’d argue that, but honestly, going in-depth on this game would just seem pointless. Neither team is good.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Right, but someone has to win and that matters for gamblers.

 

KYLE FITTA:
If gamblers bet this game, they’re stupid.

 

AARON GLAZER:
I disagree. I think Denver is fairly safe here.  Orton isn’t bad, despite the Tebow nonsense.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Orton>Tebow.

 

AARON GLAZER:
More to the point, Orton > anyone the Bengals can trot out there.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Although they might have to start looking at Brady Quinn after his impressive preseason.

 

KYLE FITTA:
I’ll take Denver 20-17 with Bengals backdooring a cover.
Fitta’s Pick: Cincinati Bengals+3.5

 

AARON GLAZER:
I just see Denver playing better and the Bengals being worse.  I think Denver covers and looks decent.
Glazer’s Pick: Denver Broncos – 3.5

 

KYLE FITTA:
Houston Texans-3 vs. Miami Dolphins

 

AARON GLAZER:
Two decent teams, so who wins, the good team in the great division or the solid team in the terrible division?

 

AARON GLAZER:
I think it comes down to the Dolphins (lack of) secondary.  Schaub will smoke them, which may be the first time that’s ever been said.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Hard to pick, as I thought Dolphins held their own against the Patriots. However, it was the first game of the season, a lot of eyes were on Henne, and those teams always play close. Schaub is an underrated QB and he has weapons to throw to and Foster is a huge added bonus which opens up the pass to, of course, his WRS like Andre Johnson. Texans have a lot to prove this year and must take every win they can get if Manning is coming back this season. Houston 30 Miami 24

 

KYLE FITTA:
Fitta’s Pick: Houston Texans-3

 

AARON GLAZER:
Glazer’s Pick: Houston Texans – 3.
But man do the Dolphins have a tough schedule.  They aren’t bad at all… besides their secondary.

 

KYLE FITTA:
San Diego Chargers+7 vs. New England Patriots
Why the hell are they giving Chargers this many points?

 

AARON GLAZER:
I have no idea.  They’re great, but it’s still warm and the Chargers are damn good.
My bold prediction?  San Diego gets the best record in the AFC.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Even with their struggles early in the season, playing a close game against the Vikings, and really taking a blow to their run game in the off-season, you think they’re the best team?

AARON GLAZER:
No, I think they have the best combination of schedule and timing.

 

KYLE FITTA:
They do play in a weak division. I mean to be frankly honest, I don’t see any team in that division better than .500. It’s possible they get the best record, although I don’t think they’re the best team in the AFC. Even though it’s early, I would say the Ravens or the Patriots are.

 

AARON GLAZER:
I think they’re better than the Ravens, but worse than Patriots, Steelers and Jets in that order.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Anywho, who do you like in this game?

 

AARON GLAZER:
I think I’ll take the Chargers and the points.
Glazer’s Pick: San Diego Chargers +7 thanks to it still being relatively warm in NE.

 

KYLE FITTA:
I thought of taking the Chargers+7, but I’ve changed my mind. Chargers are 1-11 against the Patriots in the previous 12 meetings and they struggle on the road and in the early season. Plus, I don’t like their running game anymore and I think Rivers will have too much pressure on him, and if anything is good about the Dolphins, it is their defense, although you could never tell that in that game vs. New England. The Chargers are also  awful on special teams. Therefore, I expect Patriots to really get the field position edge. Patriots 38 Chargers 27

Fitta’s Pick: New England Patriots-7

 

KYLE FITTA:
Philladelphia Eagles-2.5 vs. Atlanta Falcons

 

AARON GLAZER:
This is a really big game for both teams, and Michael Turner will be huge!

 

KYLE FITTA:
He has to be. The only way you’re going to beat this Eagles defense is running it down their throats. If you try and pass it, ints and coverage sacks will happen a lot.

 

AARON GLAZER:
That’s actually why I think the Eagles have this… and why I fear them so much.  What great running teams, besides the Saints, reside in the NFC?

 

KYLE FITTA:
REDSKINS

 

AARON GLAZER:
Right, sorry, teams not burdened with Rex Grossman.

 

KYLE FITTA:
REDSKINS

 

KYLE FITTA:
Do you think Nnamdi Asomugha is truly what he’s hyped up to be?

 

AARON GLAZER:
He’s, as near as I can tell, the 4th best player in the secondary in football behind Woodson, Reed and Revis.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Hopefully, he doesn’t forget how to catch the ball, though, if they send it his way. From what I’ve seen, he’s my favorite corner back in the league. The reason he has no INTS is because his coverage is that great. He’ll shut down any number 1 WR like nothing.

 

AARON GLAZER:
And the Eagles weren’t exactly bare on D before.  It’s scary.  Luckily, they have 3 very good wideout and the Pack have 4 very good recievers, 2 very good backs, and an awesome tight end.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Let’s try to stay objective here, Aaron.

 

AARON GLAZER:
So, we should be able to overload them on skill positions, if healthy…. which isn’t what we’re talking about, but the Eagles keep me up at night. Vick KILLED us in the playoffs one year and I’m still not over it.
Fine fine – I don’t think Matt Ryan has the weapons to beat these Eagles.

 

KYLE FITTA:
He has one big weapon which he has to go to a lot, Tony-G.

 

AARON GLAZER:
3 top wideouts… I still think the Eagles have it covered.
Glazer’s Pick: Philadelphia Eagles -2.5 (3 would scare me, 2.5, I’m comfortable).

 

KYLE FITTA:
But Tony is one of the best middle of the field catchers ever. He’ll put a lot of pressure on their linebackers.

 

AARON GLAZER:
The Falcons are missing 2 defensive linemen.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Your pick?

 

KYLE FITTA:
I think this Eagles team is both underrated and overrated. I think some people don’t want to give them credit for what they are, while I think others think they’re a “dream team”. In order to crack their defense, you need a Tom Brady type of QB to be able to get the match ups you want. While Matt Ryan has been unsung and good, he’s not that good yet. With the lack of things Falcons did over the off-season, I don’t think they’re ready to match up against the Eagles. Their offense is too innovative, their coaching staff is bar none, and their defense is strong, plus I don’t think the Falcons have a great QB spy to keep Vick in the pocket. Eagles 20 Falcons 14
Fitta’s Pick: Eagles-2.5

 

KYLE FITTA:
St. Louis Rams+6 vs. New York Giants

 

AARON GLAZER:
This is my mortal lock of the week.  The Rams are going to beat the piss out of the defenseless Giants.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Disagree, but before we get to that, how bad of a game is this for Monday Night Football?

 

AARON GLAZER:
It’s probably the worst of the year.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Nope, we have Bucs vs. Indy in two weeks.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Oh wow, what the hell happened to MNF?

 

KYLE FITTA:
As I look at these MNF games, I must say – they look awful. Check them out http://espn.go.com/nfl/mnf

 

AARON GLAZER:
That is beyond weak.  I don’t care about more than half.

 

KYLE FITTA:
No Jets-Patriots or Steelers-Ravens.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Either way, I think the Rams offense is every bit the quals of the Giants at this point if Jackson is healthy.  And the Giants have the Cardinals Defense until some bodies start healing.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Jackson is listed as out for this game and Bradford is hurt also.

 

KYLE FITTA:
In fact, Bradford is going to have to wear a glove, something he has never done.

 

AARON GLAZER:
Wow, so it’s injuries vs. injuries… but becomes Strong Offense vs. Strong Defense and Weak Offense vs. Weak Defense.  I’ll take the points and the defense with a well-timed Eli interception to wrap things up.

 

KYLE FITTA:
As much as I hate banking on Eli Manning, I have to here. I think despite the injuries the Giants are the better team. I see Rams going 0-2 more than I see Giants going 0-2. I think people look at Giants as a bad team since they lost to the Reskins, but I believe Redskins are good. Giants 20 Rams 13.
Fitta’s Pick: Giants-6

 

AARON GLAZER:
I think the Giants end up one of the worst in football by week 6 and fire Coughlin.
Glazer’s Pick: St. Louis Rams +6

 

AARON GLAZER:
So, Kyle, looking back, what are your picks of the week?  Two locks.

 

KYLE FITTA:
It’s tough to say because I like a few teams. I like the Skins at home and Cowboys.

 

AARON GLAZER:
My two locks are the Packers, who should kill the Panthers (they beat the Saints by eight and the Saints are actually good) and the Rams who should beat the listless Giants.

 

KYLE FITTA:
Packers and Tampa Bay would’ve been my other two picks. And the more I think of it, the Eagles as well.

 

We didn’t touch on it in the preview itself, but you’re fine with Vick returning to Atl?

 

KYLE FITTA:
He kinda played two years ago if I recall, as he did a lot of wildcat formations.
That is when he was the back up for McNabb.

 

KYLE FITTA:
A good question is how much will that game affect Night of Champions’ buyrate. Personally, Eagles-Falcons sounds way more interesting.

 

AARON GLAZER:
It convinced me to skip the PPV, not that that was tough.
AARON GLAZER:
I’ll add Texans to my locks and we’ll see you all next week with our records for this week and more NFL Picks and Previews.
