Let’s get this season started!

The draft is done, the season is about to begin, the BarcaLounger is dusted, the ash tray has been emptied, we took out the trash from the Curse of Chuckie party, the beer is in the new fridge (at least it’s new from the yard sale down the street) and we Windexed the 128 inch screen here in the basement. Hot dogs. Check. Chips. Check. 

The Oracle from the Basement is ready for predictions Week 1!

Titans- 21
Dolphins- 10
An improved but still very suspect Titans team takes on a team that has not made a good decision in three years. History is about to catch up with Miami before reality catches up with Tennessee.

Buccaneers- 9
Saints- 42
A team many are picking to win it all this year (Saints) tunes up like Alabama vs. SW Kansas Community College. I can’t watch, but probably will.

Jaguars- 28
Giants- 13
500 yards on the ground for Jags. 15 minutes on the ground for Eli. It’s gonna be ugly.

Bengals- 24
Colts 21
Luck comes out of the chute looking good, but a fourth quarter fade gives the Bengals their first of three victories this season.

Steelers- 36
Browns- 21
A very suspect Steelers still finds a way to romp on the much improved Brownies. It will be tough for them to repeat as the Doormat Champions this year, but they still lose today. However, Steelers will be 9-7 this season.

Bills- 10
Ravens- 16
Two bad teams play a very bad game. Don’t watch.

Redskins- 14
Cardinals- 9
Doormat game of the week! Don’t miss this first great head-to-head Doormat contest of the season. Both of these teams could lose it all! But one has to win today.

Seahawks- 14
Broncos- 0
Seahawks will be under .500 this year, but Broncos will be under that. Yech.

Bears- 10
Packers- 42
Yeah, baby!

Lions- 17
Jets- 10
Another great head-to-head Doormat game and definitely worth the watch. Lions are bad every position but one, quarterback. Jets are bad at all of them until they put that rookie QB guy in there. But for now, 0-6 to start the season.

Rams- 28
Raiders- 32
Not a Doormat game. But gotta watch this one! Raiders will find a way because they really hate the Rams.

And that’s it for week one. Gentlemen, make your predictions!

  2. Yeah, I think the Ravens are my 'tank' pick for the season. Miami is a dark horse to be really bad. I'm concerned that the Bungles may just end up a Parity team, and not put any real style into losing this year.
