Carolina Panthers over the Jacksonville Jaguars
MVP: Cam Newton
Cam Newton’s massive numbers in the yardage category are only to be outdone by the unreal numbers of Tom Brady. I expect Cam to have another huge day against the Jags and finally get a W.
New England Patriots over the Buffalo Bills
MVP: Tom Brady
Just get used to the fact that for every week that the Patriots play I will be selecting Tom Brady as the game’s MVP and 9 times out of 10 I’ll be right.
San Francisco 49ers over the Cincinnati Bengals
MVP: Frank Gore
A pretty disappointing season for Gore so far with weak performances in the first two games, I expect Gore to come out find the endzone a few times against the Bengals. Sidenote: Anyone else think of the Bengals as a prison team more than a professional team?
Cleveland Browns over the Miami Dolphins
MVP: Colt McCoy
I don’t know why but I absolutely love this kid. He’s accurate, he’s smart, and he’s good with his feet. What’s not to like about the sophomore out of Texas?
Detroit Lions over the Minnesota Vikings
MVP: Matthew Stafford
Two weeks and two dominating efforts for Stafford. Now he faces a Minnesota team that just can’t seem to hold it together after blowing a huge lead on Sunday against the Bucs. Start him with confidence.
New Orleans Saints over the Houston Texans
MVP: Drew Brees
In what I assume will be one heck of an offensive shootout, Drew Brees wins out with just a few more weapons in the passing attack than Houston can handle. I also expect another big game for Tate if Foster is sidelined again.
Philidelphia Eagles over the New York Giants
MVP: LeSean McCoy
McCoy has been a fantasy stud the past two weeks and, while Vick has been cleared to play, I would expect Philly to utilize their ground game even more to take the pressure off of their $100 million asset. And when Eli is tossing the rock you can expect a few turnovers which are just what Philly needs to seal the deal.
Tennessee Titans over the Denver Broncos
MVP: Chris Johnson
It’s now or never for CJ2K if he wants to hold off Ringer before Tennessee decides to go to a committee system. CJ hasn’t been able to get it done and he hasn’t exactly been facing the toughest run defenses early. I expect him to finally prove to everyone he was worth that big contract.
New York Jets over the Oakland Raiders
MVP: Mark Sanchez
Sanchez has so many weapons in his offensive system and I expect him to lead the entire team to a big day. Expect this game to be high scoring with the Jets prevailing in the end.
San Diego Chargers over the Kansas City Chiefs
MVP: Philip Rivers
Jamaal Charles going out for the season all but seals the fate of the Chiefs this year. Thomas Jones is too old and Dexter McCluster is too brittle. I expect Rivers to be on the field a lot since the Chiefs will struggle to move the ball and should have plenty of fantasy points for you by the end of the 3rd quarter.
Baltimore Ravens over the St. Louis Rams
MVP: Joe Flacco
It’s been the Ray Rice show in Baltimore the past few weeks and last week we saw their offense fizzle out in embarrassing fashion. I think Flacco will come back this week with a chip on his shoulder and start lighting it up against the Rams’ secondary.
Green Bay Packers over the Chicago Bears
MVP: Aaron Rogers
Remember that rule I had for Tom Brady always expected to get the MVP award? The same rule applies Rogers. Sidenote: IF Cutler can stay off the ground, I expect him to sling the ball around pretty well too.
Arizona Cardinals over the Seattle Seahawks
MVP: Kevin Kolb
The only week Seattle isn’t going to lose this season is week 6 when they have their bye week. I expect Kolb to dominate Seattle’s secondary and connect on a few deep balls with Larry Fitzgerald in the process.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers over the Atlanta Falcons
MVP: Josh Freeman
The Bucs won’t be able to manage a 17 point comeback like they did against Minnesota last week. But I can expect that, down by 4, Freeman improves on his legacy by marching down the field and punching it into the endzone in a close win.
Pittsburgh Steelers over the Indianapolis Colts
MVP: Ben Roethlisberger
I think the Colts may have it in their best interest to enter the Andrew Luck lottery. I expect Big Ben to keep up the chemistry he has with Mike Wallace working for a big day against the Colts.
Dallas Cowboys over the Washington Redskins
MVP: Tony Romo
The man with the punctured lung changed the nation’s perception of him simply by taking the field. And then again by leading the Cowboys to victory in overtime. As one of his teammates said after the game, he’s going to have to do it again to really make us believe and I think that’s exactly what he does. The Iron Lung rides out onto the field and finishes off the victory with a precision pass to the endzone to seal the victory.
