NFL Week 1 - One game just jumps out at me.

[Mr Rattler]

Houston Texans - 2.5 WIN

I expect a HUGE opening day effort from the Texans. The addition of Clowney and other key moves will make this Texans defense one to be reckoned with again. With the shambles the Redskins offense is in right now, I expect Houston to produce a dominate defensive performance in this game and be able to do enough to win handily over a team looking at a long season in the face.

First 5 games for the Texans are winnable. They see that and will be HIGHLY motivated to record a win in week one. Skins cannot possibly be going into this game with much confidence.

I agree, i'm taking them -3 +105.
I like Bill Obrien much more than Jay Gruden.

jay gruden decided not to resign lache seastrunk to his practice squad after the guy showed clearly he can run the ball and is a better pass catcher than his stats at Baylor would indicate....the guy needs work on blocking,no doubt,but home run hitters like this guy don`t grow on trees......

the practice squad is where guys with potential can learn the nuances of the game and work on their weaknesses....

there must be something more to this because other teams passed on seastrunk....

you want to see some crazy running ability(cuts in tight spaces and real burst) go check out the guy`s Baylor highlights on youtube.....

the redskin boards are pretty upset at gruden....

Agreed

Agreed

I agree, Gardenweasel......I think Seastrunk has some bigtime HR hitting ability, dont know what Skins are thinking there.

Tennessee +3 Win

This team is solid on both sides of the lines. They have weapons on offense. The only wild card that can keep this team from making the playoffs this year is Jake Locker. All he needs to do is manage the game. He doesn't need to be a hero.

Kansas City takes a step back this year. They lost 6 of their last 8 games last year. Today they face a vamped up Titan defense. Should be a tight game.

Should have 1 or 2 more picks after 12 noon EDT, Check back

St Louis -3 L

Shawn Hill is no slouch. The Viking are a bad team on the road. Rams defense is stout!

2 Team 7 Point Teaser WIN

Dal/SF over 42
Denv -1


12 of last 13 Cowboy games totaled higher than 42 points. With such a bad defense and a very good offense, this one looks no different.

Denver has won 16 of last 17 SU at home. On the tease, we only need them to win
