VS.
Both Philadelphia and Atlanta are coming off victories in Week 1 and look to do the same in Week 2. A key matchup in this week's battle will be the speed of Atlanta's defensive lineman and linebackers and how, or if, they can contain Michael Vick and his scrambling ways. The Falcons will look to keep Vick in the pocket and force him to beat them with his accuracy. AGN and Shaolin have a long rivalry that dates back to their days of being toddlers and taking baths together. We'll see how the Game of the Week affects their friendship in what should be a down-to-the-wire finish.
Prediction: Eagles 24, Falcons 31.
OTHER NOTABLE MATCHUPS
VS.
Both teams are coming off close but impressive wins in the first week of the season. I look for the Jets to give Jacksonville quite a few more fits in the passing game than the Jaguars experienced Week 1 against the Titans. With a less than stellar defense across the line of scrimmage, look for the Jets offense to put up a cornucopia of points. Final score... Jets 45, Jaguars 24.
VS.
Battle of the Brothers... or cousins... or inbred fuck buddies? Whatever they are, they're both pretty good at Madden and no what it takes to make it deep into the season. I look for a lot of turnovers and a lot touchdowns. I say Norman beats Favre 31 - 21.
VS.
A great defense in CV's Buccaneers and what looks to be a high-powered offense in Ant's Minnesota Vikings. I predect CV will keep both Minnesota's running and passing game in check while also boring his opponent to sleep with 3 yard run after 3 yard run with Legarrete Blount. CV wins 20 - 13.
