So the biggest surprise of last week was that the Philadelphia Eagles really are that fast. I admit, I was going to type “good” instead of “fast,” but I have to wonder how sustainable that pace will be over 15 more games. At some point, some enterprising defense will figure it out. But for now? [Vader voice]: Impressive…most impressive.
My other two whiffs were in picking Pittsburgh and Tampa Bay in what appeared to be gimme games. Oops. Sure, it’s just a week into the season, but both the Steelers and Bucs seem to have a tough road ahead.
Without further ado or geekery, here’s my Week 2 picks. Again, this isn’t to be taken as anything other than good fun; don’t come crying to me should you decide, in a flash of blinding miscalculation, to actually bet on my picks. In fact, just take the money you’d bet and donate it to a worthy cause, m’kay?
