We made it, friends. The 2013 NFL regular season begins tonight when the Denver Broncos host the defending champion Baltimore Ravens in the season opener. (We'll have an open thread for Bills fans to chat during tonight's game, but we also suggest checking out Mile High Report and Baltimore Beatdown today if that game strikes your fancy.)
Each Thursday morning this season, Matt Warren, Brendan Harrington and I - you've heard us on the Buffalo Rumblings Podcast - will submit our weekly picks in a year-long contest between the three of us to see who is better at predicting the outcome of pro football games. We strongly encourage you to play along in the comments section, because there will undoubtedly be someone in the community that can beat us.
Our picks are below; we'll see you tonight for Broncos/Ravens, and if you haven't checked out the SB Nation NFL preview yet, be sure to do that before kickoff.
