Yep, it's that time of year again, when Vegas sports books release their NFL win total over/unders. Actually, "that time of year again" was apparently way back in May, as that's when the excellent vegaswatch blog released it. But since you can't learn anything about teams in May, why not wait until now? Exactly. The lines have changed slightly since May, so we'll go with a more recent version. My picks are in cap beside Vegas' win total over/under number. As always play along at home- and not for money, because that would be gambling, and gambling- in case you didn't know- is illegal...
Arizona Cardinals 8.5 wins, UNDER
Atlanta Falcons 8.5 OVER
Baltimore Ravens 8.5 UNDER
Buffalo Bills 7.5 UNDER
Carolina Panthers 8.5 UNDER
Chicago Bears 8.5 OVER
Cincinnati Bengals 6.5 OVER
Cleveland Browns 7 UNDER
Dallas Cowboys 9 OVER
Denver Broncos 7.5 UNDER
Detroit Lions 5 UNDER
Green Bay Packers 9 OVER
Houston Texans 8 UNDER
Indianapolis Colts 10 UNDER
Jacksonville Jaguars 8 OVER
Kansas City Chiefs 6 UNDER
Miami Dolphins 7 OVER
Minnesota Vikings 9 OVER
New England Patriots 11.5 UNDER
New Orleans Saints 8.5 OVER
New York Giants 10 OVER
New York Jets 7 UNDER
Oakland Raiders 5.5 UNDER
Philadelphia Eagles 9.5 UNDER
Pittsburgh Steelers 10.5 OVER
San Diego Chargers 9.5 OVER
San Francisco 49ers 7 UNDER
Seattle Seahawks 7.5 OVER
St Louis Rams 5.5 UNDER
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 6.5 OVER
Tennessee Titans 9 OVER
Washington Redskins 8 UNDER
Ok now take your 10 best picks, and assign confidence points: the one you're MOST confident gets a 10, second most confident 9, etc all the way down to the one of your top 10 you're least confident about, which gets a one. Here's mine...
10. Seattle Seahawks 7.5 OVER
9. Washington Redskins 8 UNDER
8. San Diego Super Chargers 9.5 OVER
7. Cleveland Browns 7 UNDER
6. Arizona Cardinals 8.5 UNDER
5. Minnesota Vikings 9 OVER
4. Denver Broncos 7.5 UNDER
3. New York J-E-T-S JETS! JETS! JETS! 7 UNDER
2. Jacksonville Jaguars 8 OVER
1. Atlanta Falcons 8.5 OVER

nothing about Favre! I was waiting to hear your comments. My brother (a loyal Packer fan) refers to Brett as his most hated player in the NFL and his old #4 jersey is up in smoke.

Evan, I'm so sick of Favre I don't even want to waste a post on him. Summary of my feelings is that he makes the team better and is a better option than either Tavaris or Sage, but I am just so sick of Favre I can only think about it on game days. If Favre would have just been a man and said back in the winter "hey I'm going to Minnesota but I'm too old and too much of a prima donna to attend training camp, so I'll see y'all in August!" that would have been fine. Instead he drags it out for 8 months like he did last year. I want to shoot myself at the thought that he's going to do this again next year too.
Well..my Viking hugging brother-in-law is ear to ear smiles lately. Should be an interesting season. And I have a feeling that a trip deep into the post-season will give Favre license to do it all again next summer.
