And the best news of the week. Chad Ocho Cinco will have "Ocho Cinco" on the back of his jersey. The NFL is recognizing the name change.

I'm so excited!

[Quicklet]

I wonder what his reaction will be when someone tells him "Ocho Cinco" means "Eight Five" and not eighty-five.

My winners: Washington, Cincinnati, Jets, New England, Pittsburgh, Jacksonville, Detroit, Buffalo, Tampa Bay, Philadelphia, Dallas, Carolina, Arizona, Indianapolis, Green Bay, Denver.

I mostly agree except I think.

Giants > Redskins
Jets > Miami... probably by 10-20pts at that.

Also, I took seattle over buffalo even though I want buffalo to win. And I took TB over NO. Ari > SF as well. I'm debating the Buffalo one now, but I'm set with the rest.

And yeah Quick, Pretty sure he knows that. But if anyone else were to do it, with lower digits (think teens, or even 10) then using each digit sounds better.

[Correction]

Picking a Miami win in Week 1 is bold :D

[recuperi]

but its Tyche, he can't go against Miami

[Tyche]

It's gonna happen...My (YES, MY FUCKING DOLPHINS) are gonna come up pumped, ready, and pound the overrated Jets handily. Most of the Fins losses came by 3 points or less last season and now they are improved top to bottom. Pennington is playing some of his best ball ever (oh yeah, who needs brady) and ricky the pothead is back to old form.

[Kang]

Yay football is here. Go Chargers ad Ravens!

[Deejay]

Unless Clinton Portis has an ungodly performance, the Giants are going to lay one on the Redskins.

This week is pretty tame as far as predictions go. Jets/Fins is 50-50. If the Dolphins can defend the deep ball(which they can't) they'll have a chance. But honestly, I find it tough to put my money on the game management of a rookie Lineman head coach.

[Boyiee]

I changed a few of my picks last minute on the pigskin league, we'll see what happens.

Pennington is playing some of his best ball ever

Not to mention until three weeks ago, he was the starting QB on the team he's playing against in Week 1. He has played against the Jets' backs in practice a ton, and the Jets' QB hasn't been with the system more than a month. I think Miami's good for about 4-6 wins this year, and this is going to be one of them.

For everyone against NY tonight...

Defending Super Bowl champs have won season opener for the last 8 seasons...

he's still a glass canon. The dolphins are a good run blocking team but they still have to prove that they can protect the QB. And I see him getting benched after week 10 when they're 3-7.

[Fistandantilus]

Oh my god I'm so excited! I picked the Giants all through the playoffs, and the Superbowl, so I have to pick them in the opener, however I will be rooting for the Skins in this one.

Overall I don't really care too much who wins though, I am just so glad football has started!

[octopus]

Touchdownnnnnnn

[Lbelle]

go SKINS! I wish I wasn't in class right now and could watch it though.
