NFL Week 1 Preview

Wow, the regular season is already here! I haven't finished all the divisional previews, but here is the lowdown on this week's games.

Key Matchups:
-Vikings @ Saints: rematch of NFC Championship Game
-Ravens @ Jets: the media-frenzied Jets get a tough matchup with the rising Ravens
-Colts @ Texans: Texans are 1-15 against the Colts. They want to make a statement. This is their biggest game of the year.
-Bengals @ Patriots: matchup of two division winners

Individual Statements:
QB - Viking's Brett Favre throws more interceptions than touchdowns (or equal)
RB - Titan's Chris Johnson runs for over 130 yards
WR - Raven's Anquan Boldin scores a touchdown despite Darelle Revis
DF - Jaguars allow under 90 yards rushing

Upset Alert:
Ravens over Jets
Chiefs over Chargers

Stone Cold Picks
- Giants over Panthers - GMen win big
- Colts over Texans - Texans still jinxed. Teams combine for 670+ yards passing.
- Saints over Vikings - Favre gets roughed up again
- Browns over Bucs - Browns get a win early on the road
- Ravens over Jets - Ravens score 25 or more, Mark Sanchez throws more TDs than INTs
