Der Kommissar 0 Report post Posted September 9, 2007 Who else picked Detroit? That would be me. I figured it's not like I would have many other chances to pick the Lions in this thing, as it's not like this thing will go to Week 17 which is the one week the Lions are an absolute lock to win every year, thus fucking up their draft position. I hate the Lions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted September 10, 2007 Razazteca is surely a smart guy, picking Arizona to beat SF on the road. Only game in which two people picked two different outcomes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

USC Wuz Robbed! 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2007 The 49ers are going to abuse Arizona. And this is coming from one of the biggest Matt Leinart apologists in the history of the earth. If I may speak on this, Ken Whisenhunt was probably one of the worst candidates to become Matt Leinart's head coach. Sure he was the coordinator for a Super Bowl squad. Sure he knows how to manage a young quarterback. Arizona however, totally not the right personnel for Whisenhunt's style. They were probably better off hiring someone like Mike Martz or something like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted September 11, 2007 I noticed. Whisenhunt loves to use the power backs and 10-15 yard passing to speedy, slot receivers. Lots of short outs and slants. Arizona is a team that should be spread out, but Whisenhunt loves to keep formations tight and use the tight end and 3rd down back to minimize blitzing. Unfortunately, their offensive line is junk. Teams can blitz straight down the middle and not have to pay for it. So many of their passing sets are quick timing routes for smaller receivers. Arizona does not have those players, they're a big team that needs to get down the field. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LaParkaMarka 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2007 If anything, Whisenhunt should have stayed in Steeltown and Tomlin takes the job in Arizona. Tomlin's cover 2 philosophy doesn't really work the the Lebeau 3-4 defense, but could work pretty well with the personnel they have in Arizona (sick safety in Adrian Wilson, penetrating d-line with Dockett).

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted September 13, 2007 Chicago and Green Bay both look like excellent picks this week. With half the Giants injured and starting an inexperienced, 300 pound quarterback, and a terrible defense, Green Bay should be able to win their game comfortably, even with the offensive struggles. And Kansas City might just be one of the worst teams in the league this year, I do believe. Chicago should annihilate them for their home opener. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KingPK 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2007 I'm going with the Saints this week. Last week they just fell apart in the 2nd half (maybe Indy borrowed Matt Estrella for the game) and Tampa is still just terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanadianChris 0 Report post Posted September 13, 2007 This week should be interesting. There are four double-digit home favourites this week (PIT, BAL, CHI, DEN), and I have a feeling there's going to be at least one big upset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
