I told a friend at the start of this season that this would be one of the best football seasons on record. Look at the upsets this weekend. Boggles the mind. Crap, straight-up I’m 10-5. ---

Ok, the Oak/Cin game today kind of scared me. Either the Bungles are getting good, or the Raiders are starting a slump that will spiral into a decade of pain and horror. Fuck, why does it have to be either-or? Hopefully it’s both! ---

The Raiders are doomed, DOOMED, I tells ya!! ---

If they try to keep the Raiders roster together for much longer, they’ll all be out there blocking and tackling on walkers. I agree with **Stuffy**. Doomed. ---

Before I forget, how 'bout them Redskins, eh? Granted, I wouldn’t mind them beating their opponents more soundly. I’d also like to see them beat a team with their starting QB in the lineup, but I’ll take what I can get. You have to admit that the Ramsey/Coles combo looks damn good so far. ---

Dallas fans, avert your eyes on Monday for the Giants will make them look like a Pee-Wee team. Giants to win and cover, I’d take the over. What a beautiful Tuesday morning… the sun is (almost) shining, the birds are singing, and–oh, yeah–the 'Boys won! ---

I’m so happy that I didn’t actually write down what I _thought_ would happen. I wasn’t even close this week. And I picked every single OT game to fall the other way. Looking at the spreads though, I think I’d have done okay there. ---

That’s it, my 8 year old is making my picks next time. Unf\*%king believable!!! The Bungles look respectable against the Raiders. Carolina beats Tampa, Philly is still in training camp. What’s next cats and dogs sleeping together? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/nfl-predictions-week-2/201031.md?page=1)
