i just think that with Indy coming off the Superbowl win.. and playing New Orleans the first week... who is no slouch of an opponent... it seems that things are ripe for an upset.

I've changed my mind twice already... first Indy (but would like to save them), then Minnesota (home to Atlanta), and now I have San Fran (home to Arizona). I've also considered Jacksonville (home to Titans).

Not easy at all.

In, as GonZonians. I picked Seattle for round 1; home against The Bucs, I'd consider it a must win for the Hawks if they want to do well this season.

While I tend to agree, it just seems really strange to think that Week ONE is a "must win".

Just wanted to give this a bump to see if we get another wave of participants. Selections must be in before the first game!

Yeah, signed up and made my pick....Tough week as the big time teams like San Diego, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Chicago, and New England all have tough match ups in week one. I also prefer to try and select home teams too so that eliminated Pittsburgh over Cleveland. Given that criteria the Seahawks seem the best bet...but that always seems to be a team that likes shooting themselve in the nuts...Tough call.

Picked Lions over the Raiders, seemed like the best bet to me, without wasting any of the big dogs this early...

As did I. The Raiders aren't good enough to defend the Lions aerial attack for 4 quarters. Hopefully the Raiders aren't good enough to effectively use home field advantage.
