Week 1 picks
By Marla RidenourHere is how I see the games involving the AFC North Sunday with the team in all capital letters as my predicted winner:
PITTSBURGH at Cleveland: Roethlisberger lights up Browns' secondary.
BALTIMORE at Cincinnati: Chad Johnson may not dance against this D.
And the rest of the NFL for Sudnay and Monday:
Atlanta at MINNESOTA
MIAMI at Washington
NEW ENGLAND at N.Y. Jets
Tennessee at JACKSONVILLE
DENVER at Buffalo
Carolina at ST. LOUIS
Kansas City at HOUSTON
Tampa Bay at SEATTLE
Chicago at SAN DIEGO
Detroit at OAKLAND
N.Y. Giants at DALLAS
ARIZONA at San Francisco

Hey, Marla. With all due respect, if you intend to make this a regular blog feature, then either make your picks using the point spreads, or don't do this at all. Otherwise, it's not the least bit interesting or entertaining. And don't worry, you'll get the deputy editor's A-O.K., he himself posted the point spreads in his own blog yesterday.

Miami over Washington. You are crazy
You actually do have to score points to win you know.
Arizona over San Francisco your just a little "off" on that one.
SF has a very underrated "D" that will slow Zona down enough for an easy win.
I do not care about point spread. Not everyone gambles.

Doug, if not everybody gambles … well, that makes one of you. There's one reason, and one reason only, why the point spreads are published in the newspaper.
