Week 1 went well if you are still alive, and I think most of the board went with the Eagles :00hour week 1.
Week 2 is tough because the heavy favs are teams I don't have 100% confidence in, but after 35% of my pool got the boot via San Diego and Indy, just goes their are no locks in the NFL.
Quick first impressions:
Tampa Bay: Get the Falcons in their building, and based on their schedule, might be the best time to use them this season. I do not see a home game on the schedule where they will be a bigger favorite, except maybe week 17 when they host Oakland, and I should be so lucky to be alive at that point. Only reservation is that I do not know what to make Atlanta at this point.
NYG: The Rams are going to be a popular go against all year. Was at the game yesterday, and that secondary is laughable. In all honesty I they looked so lost I do not know what to think of the Eagles' win, other than the fact that McNabb can obviously hit WR's who are open by 4 steps. Giants are a steady team and shouldn't have much trouble in this spot, but it's the NFL, and taking a road team is never an easy proposition. Giants get San Fran and Balt at home later in the year so they might be worth saving for another week.
Seattle: They looked brutal against the Bills, but that was a cross country trip, and now they are at home vs the Niners. Personally I'd rather see a few games out of Hasselbeck and see them right the ship before I play them, but this is a relatively easy spot for them.
Cards: Home games against Miami will be a popular go against, and they are coming off a road win. Miami's D is solid and will keep them in games, but will they score enough to pull off an upset?
Have a couple days to decide, let's hear some feedback.
