Do you want the good news or the bad news first?
Bad news Saints fans, Reggie Bush suffered from a fractured fibula in Monday's game against the 49ers and is out 4-6 weeks. After being off to a 2-0 start this has fans in "Who Dat" nation a little worried about the ability to slide someone into Reggie's spot. They used to be three deep, but now they have only one man to really fill in that spot; no disrespect to him either, but Reggie Bush's shoes aren't going to be easy to fill.
Now for some good news (if you want to call it that): Eagles name Michael Vick starting quarterback for at least one game. This week when the Eagles take on the Jaguars Vick will be starting. His performance last week had Eagles fans and sports reporters around the league wondering why he wasn't the starter to begin with. Perhaps the stigma attached to his name with the dog fighting incident will finally begin to subside and he can play football again and earn the respect back that he once so proudly carried, but only time will tell.
Now on to my week 3 picks, which for my sake better be more fortuitous than last week because my 1 year old niece could have probably done a better job than my 7/16 picks.
- Giants
- Patriots
- Ravens
- Steelers
- Bengals
- Saints
- 49ers
- Vikings
- Cowboys
- Redskins
- Eagles
- Colts
- Chargers
- Cardinals
- Jets
- Bears
There are about 4.5 games I am on the fence with. But I'm not going to share which! I think the only game that really sparks a strong interest for me this week is the Falcons @ Saints game. I think that even without Bush in the rotation that the Saints can get it done! How can you beat a "Who Dat" Nation crowd? I think that the 49ers @ Chiefs game could be a good one to watch if week 2 49ers show up in week 3 and not the week 1 team. I guess I can give one hint as to an "on the fence" game: I took the Cowboys thinking there is no way they will drop 0-3 right? Who knows though!
