I'm a Cowboys fan and I would have to say you got that one picked wrong.

I'm not sold on the JETS just yet....Green still needs to prove himself and Sanchez is very up and down.

The Cowboys have something to prove this year and I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. Bryant and Jones have looked good and if he O-Line can hold it together I think the Cowboys come out on top…just my .02

Hey... I hope you're right. But the 'boys made next to no moves this offseason. I was not impressed.

Salary Cap. Also, the 'skins used to be offseason champs and look where that got them. Biggest additions could be Rob Ryan on D and the new Offensive Line on O.

Don't forget Garrett's first full season...and a healthy Romo...they really didn't need much as they had talk of going to the Superbowl last year....

yep gotta take some risks now and then....Da Bears are a good home team...if this was in Atlanta...no way...but at home...Da Bears got a chance...I give them one maybe two games before they fall completely apart....

If Philly fails we know or can finally say spending big bucks doesn't work. Go bears.

Only one team scores in the 30's. Scores may be a conservative, but i see nothing that couldn't happen with your picks. This season is definitely wide open. Cannot wait

Manning is out for this weekend so I imagine that you got the Texans picked correctly.

I hope there aren't any big colts fans on here. Peyton had surgery again today and looks like he will probably be out the whole season.

I hope you're all ready for some really sloppy football.  Anyone remember how sloppy teams were at the start of last year?  No OTA's, rookies and free agents didn't see the playbook until August, and many teams have new coordinators (so no one knew the playbook until August). 

Teams like New Orleans have a huge edge with some practice and no major changes.  All in all, I think it will be mid-October before these teams start to play like professionals. 
Just a nice red river cat.

I agree 100%, anyone with experience and no big coaching changes has an advantage.
