Season Opener Pick
Even though I don’t have a whole lot to say about this week’s slate of games (what am I gonna do, analyze stats and trends?), I’m not gonna be able to finish my picks for the week before tonight’s season opener (yeah!) kicks off. So here’s what I’ve got on that game. I’ll get to the rest soon enough.
Minnesota (+5) at New Orleans
It’s pretty exciting to start the new season with a rematch of last year’s NFC Championship. No matter how it turns out. I’m kinda with the oddsmakers on this one in that I expect a Saints win and I don’t expect the score to be quite as close as the title game’s. That said, I sure would enjoy seeing Brett Favre cost his team another win by throwing a stupid pick at the worst possible moment. I’m just sort of messed up that way. Saints by a touchdown.
