Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers - 8:20 p.m.
 24    The Bears have added the missing pieces they needed to be a Champion, with a balanced offense and strong defense and special teams look for the Bears to be a major player?Aaron Rodgers will get his offense back on track but time will tell about their defense and tonight is a key game for them to show the NFL  World!  This could go either way but I like the Bears in round one?

Kansas City Chiefs at Buffalo Bills - 1 p.m.
24The Buffalo front didn't do much against the Jets and their offense only had a running game.  In front of their home crowd look for Buffalo to be more competitive.   Matt Cassel is use to playing against Buffalo and will take this game very seriously, if the Chiefs defense can get after Fitzpatrick look for a Chiefs victory but close?.
31
New Orleans Saints at Carolina Panthers - 1 p.m.
32Hard to believe, but one of these two will be 0-2 come Monday?   The Saints looked tired and old against the Redskins for the first half!  Drew Brees will not let the mental errors keep them from a fast start against the Panthers.  Cam Newton is a young talent and needs their running game to be working this week?  This will appear to be a "track meet" whoever has the ball last will be the winner and I believe the Saints will want it more this week?.
42
Cleveland Browns at Cincinnati Bengals - 1 p.m.
14The Bengals still have more talent but don't look for them to blow out Cleveland.   But Brandon Weeden will struggle again, playing the Eagles and Bengals was not how he wanted to start his NFL career.  Close but the Bengals will pull out a win at home! 
9
Minnesota Vikings at Indianapolis Colts - 1 p.m.
28This is the home opener for the Colts and Andrew Luck after getting schooled in Chicago. Luck will get his first NFL victory because the Vikings stole one from Jacksonville last week. If AD can regain his "youth" and have another 200 yd day maybe, but look for this to be Luck's Day!.
20
Houston Texans at Jacksonville Jaguars - 1 p.m.
35The Jaguars have major injury issues on their offensive line and you saw what their defensive line did against  the Vikings.  Expect the Texans running and passing game to just over whelm the struggling Jaguars!   Texans big!
17
Arizona Cardinals at New England Patriots - 1 p.m.
31Tom Brady is at home this week and the Cardinals  defense let Russell Wilson keep them in the game all day?   Brady will show why he has 3 rings on Sunday!
17
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at NY Giants - 1 p.m.
35Tom Coughlin is good at getting his team to bounce back. Tampa Bay is still a young team with major talent, but the road will not be their friend this year.  Look for the Giants defense to be the difference this week?.
10
Baltimore Ravens at Philadelphia Eagles - 1 p.m.
17Mike Vick can show why the Eagles broke the bank to keep him, or Joe Flacco will show there is a "New Sheriff in Town"?   This will also show us if the Ravens defense has another Championship run left in them?.
28
Oakland Raiders at Miami Dolphins - 1 p.m.
24The Raiders, The Dolphins, remember when they ruled the AFC?   The Raiders have to make a long trip but expect Ryan Tannehill to be running for his life again?   With their running&passing game the Raiders will win!.
13
Dallas Cowboys at Seattle Seahawks - 4:05 p.m.
27Expect the Cowboys who are well rested after opening last Wednesday to continue their winning ways!   The Seahawks looked good on defense in their opener, and will present a challenge for the Cowboys. But Russell Wilson is still a rookie and a turnover or two will be the difference.
20
Washington Redskins at St. Louis Rams - 4:05 p.m.
17The Redskins shocked a lot of people by winning at New Orleans and  Robert Griffin III was sensational.   The Rams looked good in their road loss and if their defense can shut RG3 will come away with a victory?  Both teams are young, I  think it will be close but the Redskins defense will cause more turnovers.   The Redskins go 2 - 0 
21
NY Jets at Pittsburgh Steelers - 4:25 p.m.
28The Steelers lost a tough one at Denver last week and now do not want to fall another game behind the Ravens.  Look for Mark Sanchez to be on the run all day and if Tebow is in the game to be watching from the seated position.   The Jets look like the pre-season Jets with all field goals
15
Tennessee Titans at San Diego Chargers - 4:25 p.m.
24Chargers are on a short week but playing at home, look for the Titans to keep it close but run out of gas in the second half. San Diego goes to 2-0
17
Detroit Lions at San Francisco 49ers - 8:20 p.m.
21Another week or two would have been perfect timing for this game, but look for the 48ers to continue their ball control on offense.  If their defense can slow Matt Stafford the Lions will show why they are an upcoming team.  49ers in a close one

Denver Broncos at Atlanta Falcons - 8:30 p.m.
28The Peyton Manning  "NFL World Tour" continues in Atlanta!   The Falcons have to play with a lead to keep those Broncos pass rushers off Matt Ryan.  Manning looked sharp against the Steelers, expect turnovers to decide a close one  Ryan or Manning?  Until proven wrong Manning gets my vote!
