Aww yes here we go, week 2 of NFL football already! Can't you feel the excitement? RG3 goes off on the Saints, Jets open a can on the Bills, Niners rock the Pack at Lambeau, Ravens claw up the Bengals, Peyton Manning is BACK, and other exciting happenings from week 1.

Thursday Night: Chicago @ Green Bay (-6)

Green Bay is going to be PISSED and looking for a bounce back from their home loss to the Niners. Bears may have improved over last year but the Packers will be playing angry and will find a way to win. Taking Green Bay to win BUT Chicago I think will cover because they're rivals and rivalry games are always tough.

Tampa Bay @ New York Giants (-7.5)

Giants put up a stinker last Wednesday. They also had 4 extra days to prepare for the Bucs. Giants will win AND beat the spread.

Arizona @ New England (-13.5)

Patriots continue their dominance by shredding the Cardinals in their home opener at Foxboro. Patriots to win and beat the spread.

Minnesota (-1.5) @ Indianapolis

Colts are a home dog surprisingly because Minny isn't so great themselves. I think Andrew Luck will have a good game and Colts win thus covering the spread.

New Orleans (-2.5) @ Carolina

Saints aren't going to get embarrassed two weeks in a row. Drew Brees is a professional and will not have a repeat performance. Carolina seems to be a young team whose spirits could be broken with a second straight loss. Taking Saints to win and beat the spread.

Kansas City @ Buffalo (-3)

Buffalo still a favorite despite getting bombed by the Jets. With C.J. Spiller the #1 back, Bills might enjoy better success. I'll go back to Buffalo and pick them to win and beat the spread.

Baltimore @ Philadelphia (-2.5)

Man did Vick suck or what? Against Cleveland! And boy did the Ravens look dominant against Cincy. I get Philly is the home team but I thought Baltimore would be the favorite. That's why I'll take Ravens to win and thus cover the spread.

Oakland (-2.5) @ Miami

This has the makings of being a cripple fight. Oakland looked terrible Monday night and Miami didn't have much success themselves. That being said I think Oakland wins and beats the spread.

Cleveland @ Cincinnati (-7)

Battle of Ohio! Didn't really see either team play last week, just the scores. I think Cleveland benefited from a really bad game from Michael Vick than their own defense being strong. Cincinnati to win BUT Browns to cover.

Houston (-7.5) @ Jacksonville

Texans are going to destroy the Jaguars. Arian Foster is a beast. Houston to win and beat the spread.

Dallas (-3) @ Seattle

Dallas looked pretty decent Wednesday night in New York. I think they can handle Seattle who might be second-guessing starting Russel Wilson. Dallas to win and beat the spread.

Washington (-3) @ St. Louis

Holy man Robert Griffin III was impressive and against the Saints too. Will he make the magic happen again? Against the Rams, I think so. I'll take Redskins to win and beat the spread.

New York Jets @ Pittsburgh (-6)

Pittsburgh will shut down the Jets' offense and will recover from their SNF loss at home. Steelers to win BUT Jets will cover. It could be a low scoring game like 14-13 or something.

Tennessee @ San Diego (-6)

Titans have injury issues with Nate Washington and Jake Locker taking hits last week. San Diego was okay on MNF but not terribly impressive. Since Chargers are having their home opener and the Titans ailing, I'll take Chargers to win and beat the spread.

Monday Night: Denver @ Atlanta (-3)

Peyton Manning showed that he is back and just as good as before. Falcons had a big offensive game against the Chiefs last week as well. I feel this will be a shootout but with the Falcons coming out the winners. Falcons to win and beat the spread.

Doctor XFizzle's Detroit Lions Report: Detroit @ San Francisco (-6.5)

Sunday Night Football, Schwartz vs. Harbaugh II: The Handshake Returns (or The Schwartz Strikes Back). I can see this going either way, Niners blowing the Lions out of the water or Lions getting the upset. I think the Niners will be way over-amped for their home opener and riding the high of beating Green Bay at Lambeau in Week 1, making them ripe for a letdown. I think the Lions will shock the Niners and win, thus covering the spread.

There you have it, week 2.
