I'm in Martha's Vineyard for a wedding right now, so this week's picks will be done in rapid-fire mode.
Last Week: 6-10
Regular Season: 21-26-1
New England Patriots at Buffalo Bills
Belichick hasn't lost three straight since 2002.
The Pick: Patriots (-4)
Minnesota Vikings at Detroit Lions
Still not a believer in Minnesota's secondary.
The Pick: Lions (-4)Matt Ryan's 114.0 passer rating leads the league.
The Pick: Falcons (-7)
San Francisco 49ers at New York Jets
No Revis? Big problem.
The Pick: 49ers (-3.5)
The Pick: 49ers (-3.5)
San Diego Chargers at Kansas City Chiefs
Chargers run defense (67.3 ypg) stops Chiefs RBs (191.7 rush ypg).
The Pick: Chargers (-1.5)
Tennessee Titans at Houston Texans
Locker keeps it close, but gets no help from running game against tough Houston D.
The Pick: Titans (+12)
The Pick: Titans (+12)
Seattle Seahawks at St. Louis Rams
Seattle's defense (8 sacks, 12 point allowed vs. Packers) is legit.
The Pick: Seahawks (-2.5)
Miami Dolphins at Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals d-linemen Calais Campbell and Darnell Docket have combined for 24 QB pressures, according to Pro Football Focus.
The Pick: Cardinals (-5)
The Pick: Cardinals (-5)
Oakland Raiders at Denver Broncos
The Broncos don't fall for the trap game in their brutal early schedule.
The Pick: Broncos (-6.5)
This will be a close back and forth. Packers have upgraded their shameful 2011 defense, but Saints have not.
The Pick: Saints (+7.5)
The Redskins offense has been hurting the last couple of weeks without Pierre Garcon. Bucs will be ready for RG3's zone-read offense after dominating Cam Newton in Week 1.
New York Giants at Philadelphia Eagles
Chicago Bears at Dallas Cowboys
The Pick: Cowboys (-3.5)
The Pick: Broncos (-6.5)
Cincinnati Bengals at Jacksonville Jaguars
Bengals D isn't as good as last year, but should still handle Jags' 30th-ranked offense.
The Pick: Bengals (-2.5)
The Pick: Bengals (-2.5)
New Orleans Saints at Green Bay Packers
This will be a close back and forth. Packers have upgraded their shameful 2011 defense, but Saints have not.
The Pick: Saints (+7.5)
Washington Redskins at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
The Redskins offense has been hurting the last couple of weeks without Pierre Garcon. Bucs will be ready for RG3's zone-read offense after dominating Cam Newton in Week 1.
The Pick: Buccaneers (-2.5)
New York Giants at Philadelphia Eagles
There's no love lost between these teams. Check out my preview for Pro Football Focus here. I can't trust the Eagles until they protect the football.
The Pick: Giants (+2)
The Pick: Giants (+2)
Chicago Bears at Dallas Cowboys
DeMarcus Ware vs. J'Marcus Webb. Watch out, Jay Cutler.
The Pick: Cowboys (-3.5)
Happy football, everyone.
