2014 NFL Week 3 Pick'em

Week 2 was one to be forgotten. An embarrassing 5-11 overall record with 1-4 in SC picks isn't going to cut it. But aside from that Week 2 was full of injuries. Jamaal Charles, AJ Green, RG3, Knowshon Moreno, DeSean Jackson and Mark Ingram all went down. Not to mention the news of Adrian Peterson being shut down because of child abuse allegations. By the way, has the NFL ever been in a worse place than now with Ray Rice, Peterson, Greg Hardy, Jonathan Dwyer and Ray MacDonald all being in the headlines for some sort of domestic abuse? Anyway, Week 3 brings a Super Bowl rematch between the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks. Denver has a revamped defense as 9 of 11 starters this year that did not play in the Super Bowl. This week I have to make it quick on the picks since I've spent this week moving to Bristol, Connecticut. Here we go.

SuperContest Picks (Home team in CAPS)

BILLS -2.5 over Chargers     Buffalo strong at home, SD still celebrating Seattle win

Cowboys -1 over RAMS     Cowboys started better than expected, take down depleted Rams

CARDINALS +3 over 49ers     Arizona keeps it close even without Palmer

PANTHERS -3.5 over Steelers     Cam came back strong and defense looks great


Other NFL in 10 or less

FALCONS -6.5 over Bucs     Too much firepower for Falcons at home

Redskins +6.5 over EAGLES     Cousins looked great and Eagles slow coming off big win
