I think the players they lost will hurt them more then the coaches being out.

I think they'll be able to score enough points to mask the flaws of that defense, just like Peyton did w/ Indy. I'm not saying they'll be as good as last year, but 10-6 seems certainly achievable. That's 3 wins off their total from last year

I haven't laughed that hard in a while as when I saw the OP.
Good shit.

SEPTEMBER 5
DAL at NYG - Super bowl champs always win

SEPTEMBER 9
IND at CHI - Luck wins and Cutler pouts
ATL at KC - Fuck the Falcons
PHI at CLE - VIck will win until he's hurt, so the Eagles have a good 2 game stretch.
WAS at NO - Superdome home openers are usually the other team walking into a buzzsaw
STL at DET - I remember not long ago this would have been reversed
NE at TEN - Its not in the snow but the results will be similar
JAC at MIN - I think Jax is a bit better than people are thinking
BUF at NYJ - Fitz starts off strong. Can he keep it going?
MIA at HOU - after all the crazy hard knocks shit, Miami beats Houston and everybody is confused.
SEA at ARI - Shat for Matt
SF at GB - This game will be fucking amazing but GB has more weapons in the arsenal
CAR at TB - Cam steals Tampa's laptop. Freeman gets confused and eats everything.
PIT at DEN - Old man Peyton does what old man Peyton does

SEPTEMBER 10
CIN at BAL - Joe Flacco hands off to Ray Rice 30 times.
SD at OAK - Sandy Eggo is getting old and busted

Giants cuts are starting to appear on Twitter. For Big Blue fans:

OT Matt McCants waived. We'll see about practice squad for the 7th-rounder. #nyg

Ralph Vacchiano @RVacchianoNYDN

LB Greg Jones has officially been cut,

@RVacchianoNYDN: LB Jake Muasau has been cut.

@MikeGarafolo: WR Isaiah Stanback has been cut. #nyg

Giants cut Matt Broha, Marcus Thomas to begin trimming to final roster

Broha is an obvious practice squad candidate if he clears waivers.

Too bad on Greg Jones. The numbers at the LB position just killed him. The final LB roster will likely be: Michael Boley, Mathias Kiwanuka, Keith Rivers, Spencer Paysinger, Mark Herzlich and Jacquain Williams.

Go Jags!

This'll be a good road test on the defense. And we'll see if Gabbert has tamed his cowardly side or not. I predict Rashad Jennings with 150 yards though.
 
I find your lack of AFC North disturbing.

Anyway....until the pickem gets rolling, here's mine for week 1.

RT @ClaytonESPN With all of these extra picks, have to figure the Dolphins will try to make a pitch to acquire WR James Jones from Green Bay.

SEPTEMBER 5
DAL at NYG It's weird to be saying this in week 1, but this is a must win game for the Cowboys.

SEPTEMBER 9
IND at CHI I will declare this now. The Bears will win the NFC North and will be the #1 seed in the NFC as long as Jay Cutler stays healthy.
ATL at KC The Falcons will continue to carry the flag of regular season warriors.
PHI at CLE Cleveland continues to be a disaster
WAS at NO The Saints will give their fans hope before the wheels fall off.
STL at DET Bradford's career will be over after this game.
NE at TEN This game will be closer than most think.
JAC at MIN Jacksonville would be better than average this year if they had MJD.
BUF at NYJ Rex Ryan will lose his job this year because of Tebow.
MIA at HOU And your 2012-2013 AFC South Champions are...
SEA at ARI Surprise offensive game of the week
SF at GB This one is a tough pick, so I chose the team that will win their division.
CAR at TB Tampa Bay were awful last year. They need to prove to me that they are good for me to pick them again.
PIT at DEN See STL at DET

SEPTEMBER 10
CIN at BAL Defensive game of the week
SD at OAK Philip Rivers has missed his window of opportunity
