In week 1 I finished an unimpressive 9-6 with my picks. And this weeks games look to be just as difficult, but without further a do, here a my predictions for week 2 of the 2013 NFL season.
St. Louis Rams vs. Atlanta Falcons
Winner – Atlanta
The Falcons can’t afford to slide to 0-2 in a division that is also home to the Saints. The Falcons beat the Rams and come out on top at home.
Cleveland Browns vs. Baltimore Ravens
Winner – Baltimore
Baltimore may not have all of the weapons that they once had, but they’re still the defending Super Bowl champs. The Ravens should be good enough to take the game against the Browns.
Carolina Panthers vs. Buffalo Bills
Winner – Carolina
Cam Newton struggled throwing the ball last week against the Seahawks, but that’s not all that surprising. Look for Cam to rebound and a have a big week against Buffalo.
Minnesota Vikings vs. Chicago Bears
Winner – Chicago
You can’t ALWAYS stop Adrian Peterson. He’s almost a lock to break at least one big play per game, but I think the Bears can bottle him up for MOST of the day. Chicago pulls out the W.
Washington Redskins vs. Green Bay Packers
Winner – Green Bay
The Redskins defense struggled to stop the offensive attack of Chip Kelly in week 1. The Green Bay offense won’t make it any easier for them, either. I think that Green Bay wins it at Lambeau.
Tennessee Titans vs. Houston Texans
Winner – Houston
The Texans orchestrated a nice comeback against the Chargers on Monday night. I think Houston will keep on rolling and put a beat down on the Titans.
Miami Dolphins vs. Indianapolis Colts
Winner – Miami
This is my upset pick of the week. I have a gut feeling that Miami steals one from Indy today.
Dallas Cowboys vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Winner – Kansas City
Andy Reid has a lot of experience playing the Cowboys. I think he finds a way to get the win against his former NFC East rival.
San Diego Chargers vs. Philadelphia Eagles
Winner – Philadelphia
The defense of San Diego won’t be able to keep up with the fast paced Philly offense. Desean Jackson should have a big day against a weak Chargers secondary.
I was kind of short on time, so I’ll update my blog with the late game picks in a little bit. But, here are my picks for the 1 o’clock games of week 2.
