Especially with Clements not "starting"

I see you’re alllllllll on the Giants…..probably wisely.

im honestly shocked

I’m the only one who picked the Broncos. I think people still have memories of the old Ravens defense. Their pass D is miserable and their run D has been exposed.I think Brandon Marshall, Eddie Royal, Stockley, Scheffler will dominate them.

The no huddle is gone, please sign tackles Runyan, Jones or Walker

Baltimore’s defense is not the same, but neither is their offense. Joe Flacco is legit, and he’s been clutch. They can run. They make big plays. They’re at home. At some point, Denver’s dominant second-half defensive run will come to a close – and they’ve got to lose sometime.

Well I personally don't think Denver can bet that good

They’ve seemingly played perfect games so far this year. I just can’t imagine that continuing.

isnt it odd

that the rankings are identical to the order of how our picks are charted from left to right?

Why is that odd? I do it that way purposely…

LOL! That’s why I go through and look at who to root for based on who is above me. Moving up to #4 on Tuesday morning!

A Rams win would be so huge for me today. Come on Spags!

A Dolphins win clears me a game from the three guys in front of me. Ricky Williams is starting on my fantasy team. Let’s go Dolphins (I threw up…)

How did everybody pick the Ravens like that? I thought I was picking against the grain with that one.

Well it should be interesting at least.

The Ravens are favored in Vegas- and I think it’s by slightly more than the normal 3 points for being at home. And they seem to be the sexy pick…I really don’t see them beating Denver. They’ve cooled off since that start to the season.

I’m still not talking to you because your Angels let me down.
