Staff Writer: Mrs. NEPD
Editor’s Note: Please welcome my wife, Mrs. NEPD, as she attempts to beat me in our pick’em contest.
With a fresh NFL season starting tomorrow, I am not only in suspense about where the Patriots pass-rush is going to come from. There are so many questions going through my mind – first of which is how many games am I going to beat my husband by?
Is Tom Brady’s hair long enough for a ponytail? Please tell me he is cutting it soon. Which teams are sporting new cheerleader uniforms? As a former cheerleader myself, I can say that the Patriots cheerleaders have really stepped it up.
What memorable nicknames can I create for the new Patriots? Graham cracker (Daniel Graham), Wendy’s (David Thomas), and Crazy Eyes (Reche Caldwell) are all gone, but I am liking the new names for the Patriots TE triumvirate (Samurai/Ninja/Sumo).
With NFL football also comes new TV. On that note, will Michael and Holly finally get together? I hate AJ with a passion. Can Gloria from Modern Family put some clothes on? If not, can the Dunphy’s marriage survive?
Enough questions, here are the answers:
Vikings at Saints (-5.5)
Bengals at Patriots (-4.5)
Dolphins (-2.5) at Bills
Raiders at Titans (-6.5)
Broncos at Jaguars (-2.5)
Panthers at Giants (-6.5)
Colts (-2.5) at Texans
Falcons (-2.5) at Steelers
Browns (+2.5) at Bucs
Lions (+6.5) at Bears
Packers (-2.5) at Eagles
49ers (-2.5) at Seahawks
Cardinals at Rams (+3.5)
Cowboys (-3.5) at Redskins
Ravens (+2.5) at Jets
Chargers at Chiefs (+4.5)
