Will Philadelphia Eagles Michael Vick Bounce Back From Week 1 Disaster

 Philadelphia Eagles quarterbacker Michael Vick looked horrible in week 1 against the  weak Cleveland Brown.Vick threw 4 interceptions, but when it counted lead his team on a 91 yard drive to win the game 17-16.

This week the Eagles has the Baltimore Ravens who can put up big points. If the Eagles get down early, will Vick try to force things and have another bad day. Last week looking at Vick, it just seem he was not mentally in the game from the start. Staring down receivers you are about to throw too is the number one sin for a quarterback, because corners reads quarterback eyes. Now I know Vicks wears that shield to avoid that, but when his head is turned toward a receiver for a couple seconds, corners are reading that.

Vick definitely needs to have a better game, but also Andy Reid needs to take pressure off Vick. Throwing the ball 56 times in the first game of the season is not a balance offense. Reid will have to have a better game plan against the Ravens. Should be a great game.

My prediction is the Eagles will not score enough to win this game and will lose by 10.

Peyton Manning Leads The Broncos Against The Steelers

The Denver Broncos opened up their season Sunday at home against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The question was how would Peyton Manning respond to being back on the field after missing almost 2 years of football.Wow did he answer that question.

Manning seem to lead the Broncos downfield at will against the aging Steelers defense.In the second half, the Broncos scored on every possession but one. On the night Manning was 19-26 253 yards and 2 touchdowns.It was just great to see the mind game that Manning displayed with Troy Polamalu.

Trailing the Broncos by 6 with 2 minutes remaining in the game, Big Ben has a chance to march the Steelers downfield for what would have been a winning touchdown. Instead he was intercepted by cornerback Tracy Porter, who returned it for a touchdown and sealed the game for Denver.The Broncos goes on to win the game 19-31.

After the game, Peyton told reporter that it was just one game and he must keep that in perpective. What a start for Manning!

2012 NFL Week One Picks

Sunday is here, and all sports fans know what that means. FOOTBALL! That's right the first full weekend of football is here and the schedule has it set up to be a good first week. Each week I give my picks for who will win, and which upsets you should be looking for. Here are my picks.

1. Indianapolis Colts will lose to the Chicago Bears
2. Cleveland Browns will lose to the Philadelphia Eagles
3.Miami Dolphin will lose to the Houston Texans
4. St. Louis Rams will lose to the Detroit Lions
5. New York Jets will lose to the Buffalo Bills

8. Kansas City Chief will lose to the Atlanta Falcons

10. Arizona Cardinals will lose to the Seattle Seahawks
11. San Francisco will lose a close game to Green Bay

Upset Games For Week 1
12.New Orleans Saint will lose to the Washington Redskins..Without Sean Peyton calling the play calls the Saints will not score a lot and will lose a close game.
13. Pittsburg Steelers will lose to the Denver Broncos. Pittsburg defense is old and Manning will exploit it. Denver has a great defense and will keep the game close.

These are my picks for week 1.
