Another week another chance to better my pics. Last week going 2-3 isn't great, but it's an improvement over the 1-4 I had the week before. Lets see how this week fairs.

Pittsburgh vs. San Diego- The Bye week was definately needed by Pittsburgh, Hopefully Roethlisberger will be out of the funk he's been in. But San Diego isn't too happy about loosing a close game against Baltimore last weekend. I see them getting back on the winning track and handing the defending Superbowl champions another loss. WINNER San Diego Chargers

Dallas vs. Philadelphia- This is a game people have had marked on their callendars since the 2006/2007 schedules were released. But will Terell Owens play? And if so you know he has something planned. I look for Philadelphia to go after him all day if he does play. And though Dallas had a dominating victory sunday, getting a win over a weak team like Tenessee doesn't prove ones dominance in the NFL. WINNER Philadelphia Eagles

Cleveland vs. Carolina- Congrats to Cleveland for getting their first win of the season. All be it against arguably the worst team in the NFL, you take them any way you can. Carolina after a slow start has gotten right back in the hunt for the NFC South division title with a close vicotry over current South leader Saints. They should continue to close the gap and pressure the Saints and Falcons more in the division. WINNER Carolina Panthers

New York vs. Jacksonville- probably the hardest game for me to pick this week. Jacksonville on paper looks to be the better team, but with yet another injury to their starting Defense, Jacksonville is going is going to have trouble winning games and maintaining a spot as a serious playoff team. The Jets are off to a 2-2 start and nearly defeated the powerhouse colts. If they take that same intensity into the game against a Jacksonville team who's hurting on defense they could pull of a victory. WINNER New York Jets

Denver vs. Baltimore- The X factor in this game is Jake Plummer. Denver is off to a 2-1 start, comming off a bye week, and have toppled the Patriots already, but Plummer needs to be on his game if he wants to get around the Ravens top notch Defense. The Ravens dodged a bullet last weekend against San Diego. But if they can force Jake into making 1 or 2 key mistakes the game should be theirs. WINNER Baltimore Ravens

Recap- Chargers, Eagles, Panthers, Jets and Ravens

Pittsburgh - I feel that if the Pittsburgh D can stop L.T. like the Ravens did, then Phillip Rivers will be pressured to make decisions, and with this, the Steelers defense can take advantage of this. 21-17 Pittsburgh in a close one

Philly - Look for T.O. to have a big game, despite his injured hand, as he runs rampant against a weakened Philly secondary. However, the O-Line of Dallas will get decimated a few times and Drew Bledsoe may need medical attention. Julius Jones runs for a 110 and a TD, T.O. 150 and a TD, but McNabb is able to continue is trend of throwing TD's to everyone. 27 - 17, Phillies win at home.

Carolina - With the return of Steve Smith, Carolina is a contender again. Look for him to get into the end zone at least once and easily surpass the 100 yard receving mark. The Carolina running game will exceed 150 yard rushing easily as the Panthers run all over the Brown. Look for Kellen Winslow to be the only person to score points for the Browns. 31-7, Panthers win in a blowout.

Jacksonville - A tough challenge for the Jets. Perhaps too tough, as John Henderson and Marcus Stroud will pressure Chad Pennington all day long. The Jets defense is able to contain Bryan Leftwitch (that how u spell his last name?), but Fred Taylor and Maurice Drew are an excellent game, with at least one of them surpassing 100 yards rushing and a td a piece. 20- 13, Jacksonville in a surprsingly very tight game.

Baltimore - The Ravens defense has been unstoppable, and Denver sure isnt going to do any better against them. Jake Plummer will be picked twice and sacked a bunch as the only thing which Steve McNair must do is NOT lose the ball. The only TD in the game will come in a McNair to Mason 15 yard TD pass, but the Ravens will come up with points on the majority of their drives. 22 - 6, Ravens
