Quote:I will get my out on a limb homerism out of the way, perhaps against my better judgment, and pick the Jaguars to upset the Packers.


Tacks over Vikings. Not sure if Vikings can generate enough offense.


Texans all over the Bears. If Watt plays and is Watt, Chicago has no shot.


Colts over Lions. Can Indy protect Luck?

I don't think Indy can protect luck, and I don't think they have the corners, pass rush, or anything else on D to hang with an offense that's gonna throw the ball as much as the Lions are. They're pretty banged up on D right now. The tacks aren't gonna move the ball much against that solid Vikings D, and their D isn't going to stop AP I don't think. The bears and tinhorns is a toss up for me. I don't think Houston will have much of an offense right away, but their D is good enough to beat Chicago.


FWIW, I was in a sportsbook at Atlantis today, and the Packers are favored by 4 points. Didn't look at the others yet.
