Phil's NFL picks, Week 2
Bengals (1-0) @ Browns (0-1)
With Charlie Frye traded, is the Brady Quinn era closing in?
PICK: BENGALS
Zach: So which comes first. The Quinn Era or a Browns win? Bengals

Colts (1-0) @ Titans (1-0)
Before calling this a gimmie for Indianapolis, remember the Colts swept the Titans last year by a total of 4 points.
PICK: COLTS
Zach:The Colts are going to be difficult to pick against this season. Colts.

49ers (1-0) @ Rams (1-0)
Orlando Pace out for the year is a horrible break for St Louis.
PICK: RAMS
Zach: Not as bad as the break for people who have to watch this game. St. Louis.

Packers (1-0) @ Giants (0-1)
There are serious question marks regarding Eli Manning's shoulder.
PICK: PACKERS
Zach: I have no reason to believe either of thses teams are any good. Giants.

Bills (0-1) @ Steelers (1-0)
Was Pittsburgh as good as their 34-7 win over the Browns, or is Cleveland really that bad?
PICK: STEELERS
Zach: Ben Roethlisberger is not great, but he's not bad. And he has the pieces around him to be successful.

Saints (0-1) @ Buccaneers (0-1)
Been a long week for New Orleans to think about that egg they laid on the NFL opener.
PICK: SAINTS
Zach:Could this be the year Jon Gruden gets fired?

Texans (1-0) @ Panthers (1-0)
If that defense is for real, Carolina may threaten in the NFC South this year.
PICK: PANTHERS
Zach:It's probably not, but they're still better than the Texans.

Falcons (0-1) @ Jaguars (0-1)
No Michael Vick to watch, no Bryon Leftwich to watch, no point to watch the game.
PICK: JAGUARS
Zach: This game is like voting for an Ohio congressman, and the two choices are Dennis Kucinich and Dennis Kucinich. Jags.

Vikings (1-0) @ Lions (1-0)
Upset Special: Calvin Johnson vs Adrian Peterson figures to be a fun rookie match up.
PICK: LIONS
Zach: Imagine what will happen if Detroit wins, and manages to full everyone into thinking it is halfway decent. Vikings.

Cowboys (1-0) @ Dolphins (0-1)
Dallas should have few issues manhandling Miami's pathetic offense.
PICK: COWBOYS
Zach:For some reason I took the Dolphins over at www.hammondbacon.blogspot.com . Better be consistent. Dolphins.

Seahawks (1-0) @ Cardinals (0-1)
Arizona better hope last week's pitiful passing offense was an aberration to the rest of the season.
PICK: SEAHAWKS
Zach: Seattle's not that great, but Arizona has reached Browns-like futility.

Chiefs (0-1) @ Bears (0-1)
For the fourth straight year, Mike Brown will be unable to finish a season due to injury.
PICK: BEARS
Zach: But he somehow coached the Cavs to the NBA Finals. Bears.

Raiders (0-1) @ Broncos (1-0)
The JaMarcus Russell signing came so late that it's hard to see him making any meaningful contribution to Oakland in 2007.
PICK: BRONCOS
Zach: The Raiders are bloody awful. Broncos.

Jets (0-1) @ Ravens (0-1)
Bizarre stat of Week 1: Baltimore commits 6 turnovers, yet only lose by 7 points.
PICK: RAVENS
Zach: No one seems to have any faith in the Jets. Least of all me. Ravens.

SUNDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
Chargers (1-0) @ Patriots (1-0)
Coach takes HGH for a medical condition and gets a five game suspension. Other coach cheats, going against a direct order not to videotape opponents and gets no suspension. I'm getting dizzy.
PICK: PATRIOTS
Zach: Game of the week. Patriots.

MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
Redskins (1-0) @ Eagles (0-1)
Must win is a tad extreme, but can Philly really afford an 0-2 start?
PICK: EAGLES
Zach: Seriously. This is the Monday Night Game? Eagles.

LAST WEEK: 13-3
Zach: Uh, I think I went 14-2 in one of the polls I was in. But I was 11-5 here.
