Buckeye typing as Jen:
My early bird AFC Championship pick is the Brownies over the KC Chiefs! Early bird Super Bowl pick is the Brownies (of course!) over the Panthers.

P.S. Trent Green will retire and be forced to sell insurance after this season. The end.

Jen typing as Jen:
Umm, I hold no responsibility for Buckeye's remarks.

P.S. Good idea moving this to its own thread.

My early superbowl pick is Ravens over the Seahawks.

Yes, Amelia, i'm actually rooting for the seahawks this year... mostly cause i have hasselbeck and jackson on my fantasy team. so, go seahawks.

i do think that their week 1 game will be a tight one though, if they even win. (you do realize that when i say it's going to be tight, it's a blow-out, and vice versa.)

[Malcor Sylverwood]

I always suck at these...can't help but pick who I want to win instead of who I think will...

Thursday, Sep. 9
Indianapolis at New England. Go Peyton!!!

Sunday, Sep. 12
Arizona at St. Louis
Baltimore at Cleveland
Cincinnati at N.Y. Jets
Detroit at Chicago
Jacksonville at Buffalo
Oakland at Pittsburgh -- I CAN NOT wait to see the showdown of Sapp v. Bettis. I think "The Bus" will have a hard time going through the line. Unfortunatley the Poorly-performing Oakland Offense won't be able to capitalize on their defensive abilities. (BUT I STILL LOVE JERRY RICE)
San Diego at Houston
Seattle at New Orleans
Tampa Bay at Washington -- No Comment. Both good teams, but Tamp doesn't have Lynch or Sapp, and Washington is definately at the end of their rebuilding cycle.
Tennessee at Miami
Atlanta at San Francisco -- I have faith in my 'Niners, despite my reservations about Tim Rattay
Dallas at Minnesota
N.Y. Giants at Philadelphia Go Screamin' Eagles!!!
Kansas City at Denver Despite the fact that I hate the Broncos, they looked really sharp in the Pre-season. I don't think that Priest Holmes or Gonsales ( Chief's TE) can hold the Chiefs together vs. John Lynch's defense

Monday, Sep. 13
Green Bay at Carolina

I hate the Cheese Heads. damn that Lambeau Field and the multiple times that it has crushed the 'Niners playoff hopes.

[sir archely]

heh, bettis vs. sapp might be mostly a non-issue, with staley being the starter. the bus might get short down carries, or goal line stuff, but i don't think it's going to be much of a "showdown". plus the bus is runnin' out of gas. (though i suppose sapp isn't a spring chicken either.)

and also, i'd say that the 49ers look like one of the weakest teams in football right now.

i am, however, frequently wrong.

Looked sharp? What games are you watching...here's an interesting stat about there starting quarterback...

Ok it's offical, Plummer's rating is 30.9 after 3 games. good enough for 99th out of 103 qbs thus far.

Only ones worse are:

Rodney Peete 23.7
Kordell Stewart 22.2
Tony Romo 9.5
Joe Germaine 0 (Joe Germaine threw 1 pass & it was intercepted.)

Curious that...

I was watching their defence.

Yeah, i know it's a double post, but I'm too lazy to give separate answers;

I know, but i think it WOULD be cool to see the 2 collide. i'd be interested in a show-down. Yes, I know my 'Niners look weak, but I still love 'em and will stick with them through thick-and-thin

[Malcor Sylverwood]

I was watching their defence.

Fine

I heard the Denver beat writer on 610 the other day......He said Lynch looked old and slow.........

It was pretty well-documented that Denver cut some corners on his physical to bring him in. The Bucs said there was ZERO chance he could pass their physical, which is why they let him go.

Besides...as the saying goes...offense wins games

I don't think anyone is allowed to pick Chicago over Detroit. I mean... that's just... wrong. This is the Bears we're talking about.
