Week One NFL Picks
Week One NFL Picks The 2009 NFL Regular Season gets into full swing this weekend and if looks to be another great year in the National Football League. Brett Favre is finally a Viking after retiring and un-retiring; spending a disappointing season in New York, then retiring and un-retiring again. America's Team said good-bye to Texas Stadium and hello to Jerry Jones' $1.1 billion monstrosity known as the new Cowboys Stadium. However, the leagues biggest story has to be Michael Vick's journey from America's "Dog-House" to the "Big-House" over to the "Bird-house" as the newest member of the Philadelphia Eagles. Here are our Week One featured games, picks and analysis.


Game 1
New York Jets at Houston Texans
Line - Texans -5 total 44
The Jets have a new head coach, a new starting quarterback and a new-look blitz happy defense. The Texans hope to get over the hump with some good offensive talent. New York will have some growing pains early on.
Take the Texans and give the 5 points.

Game 2
Washington Redskins at New York Giants
Line - Giants -6.5 total 37
The Redskins beefed up their defense in the off-season, but the Giants offense should still be able to move the ball. Redskins offense
is still trying to find an identity, they will have their hands full with a tough Giants defense.
Take the Giants and give the 6.5 points.

Game 3
Chicago Bears at Green Bay Packers
Line - Packers -4 total 46
Since replacing Brett Favre, Aaron Rodgers has done nothing but silence his critics. With a healthy Ryan Grant, the Green Bay offense may be dangerous. Jay Cutler leading the Bears offense should prove to put up points as well.
Take the over 46 points.

Game 4
Buffalo Bills at New England Patriots
Line - Patriots -11 total 47.5
Tom Brady is back under center and he has got something to prove. Look for Moss and Welker to have big nights. The New England defense will spoil Terrell Owens' debut as a Bill.
Take the Patriots and give the 11 points.

Game 5
San Diego Chargers at Oakland Raiders
Line - Chargers -9.5 total 43
The Chargers have their sites set on another AFC West Division crown and a push toward a Lombardi Trophy. However, the Raiders defense is much improved and Richard Seymour is expected to play, they will keep it close.
Take the Raiders getting the 9.5 points.
