NFL Round 2 Predictions


I was 3 out of 4 last week, just missing out on the Ravens victory. Though I did point out that I thought that they could pull off the upset. This week I don't see any upsets occurring.

The Jets magical mystery tour comes into an end in San Diego. The Chargers' Phillip Rivers will be the difference in this one. Chargers by 10.

The Cowboys could very well upset the Vikings. I see this game much like the Ravens-Pats last week. But I see the Vikings winning it on a late field goal.

The Ravens played an inspired game last week and will be fired up this week for the Colts. But despite the Colts lack of a running game, Peyton Manning and Indy will be the victor in this one by 7-8 points.

The Saints lost their last three regular season games entering the playoffs. Granted, they were going at it on all cylinders. The Cardinals survived that wild and wacky game with Green Bay last week when a record 96 points were scored. I like a high scoring affair with Drew Brees passing the Saints to a 10 point victory.

P U

We stink...we took both road teams and came out on the short end in both games.

The Falcons couldn't stop the Cardinals big play offense and the Cards went against their playbook and established the running game. Rookie Matt Ryan made some definite rookie mistakes and the Cards took it 30-24.

The AFC match up between the Chargers and Colts was very entertaining and went to overtime before running back Darren Sproles ran for a game winning touchdown. Sproles got the chance to shin before a national audience due to a first half groin injury by LaDainian Tomlinson.

The 5'6" 181 pound powder keg rushed for 102 yards and 2 touchdowns and showed no after effects of a lost fumble earlier in the game. Sproles also caught 5 passes for 45 yards, had 106 return yards on kickoffs and averaged 24 yards on 3 punt returns.

The Bolts take it, 23-17.
