Tennessee-31 vs.Houston-12

Chuck:Saw this coming a mile away, the Titans defense is THE TRUTH. Also, like I’ve been saying for years now, Matt Schuab is wack. I will never forget people calling for ATL to bench Mike Vick in favor of Schaub…. he’s no more than a 2nd stringer. (win)

Risse: Houston has some work to do, but truthfully, the team’s schedule is really top-heavy and the AFC South shows no mercy. Coach Kubiak & company must formulate a new game plan after the storm but the forced BYE week early on could help work out the kinks; they have two losses but are not sitting on 0-3  going into Week 4 (Loss).

Washington-24 vs Arizona-17

Chuck: I still don’t believe Washington is for real, Arizona made a few dumb mistakes which proved too costly. Kurt Warner’s old ass is about to win comeback player of the year (seriously). (loss)

Risse: D.C. is in the house without a doubt! And Jason Campbell is flying under the radar with no interceptions thus far in 2008 season. Knock on wood, *insert crying T.O. voice,* “That’s my [fantasy] quarterback! “(Win)

Minnesota-20 vs Carolina-10

Chuck: It’s almost poetic justice that Carolina won 2 games without Steve Smith and then lost when he re-joined the roster. That’ll show him that he’s not that important. (win)

Risse: I am still not a believer in Gus Frerotte but the Vikings found a way to get a “W.” My MInny-Napolis crew should be happy (Loss)

Atlanta-38 vs Kansas City-14

Chuck: If Kansas City and St. Louis played a game in the middle of the woods, would anybody watch? Larry Johnson got over 20 carries and 100 yards and they still lost. (win)

Risse: The Falcons are rolling at 2-1 with Roddy White and Michael Turner. They are acting a fool in Bankhead right now. (Win)

New England-13 vs Miami-38

Chuck: I honestly had no idea the Patriots would look THIS pitiful without Tom Brady. They made Ronnie Brown look like Walter Payton. (loss)

Risse: Joey Porter talked shit AND the Dolphins backed it. And for that, I will STFU. (Loss)

Buffalo-24 vs Oakland-23

Chuck: If you’ve never seen the cannon that is Jamarcus Russell’s arm…. be sure to check it out, this dude can throw a gummy bear through a steel plate. (win)

Risse: There’s an old school term called the “Oakland Stroke.” Then there is the unfortunate modern-day silver-and-black tragic tradition known as the “Oakland Choke.” And, now, Davis will use this as Kiffin’s last dance. Victory never tasted so bittersweet. (Win)

New York (NYG)-26 vs Cincinnati-23 (OT)

Chuck: Little Eli Manning picked apart Cincy’s defense when it mattered most, this is one thing about the Bengals that never changes. (win)

Risse: I am glad the Bengals actually showed up to play. I will always have love for Marvin Lewis but his job might be on Craigslist soon. I had little faith on Houshmanzadeh and mistakenly benched him in fantasy; he only bit back for 146 yards and 1 TD. But the G-Men, like me, still took it (Win).

Chicago-24 vs Tampa Bay-27 (OT)

Chuck: How in the hell did Brian Greise throw for 400 yards against the Bears defense? What planet am I on? How did he throw for 400 yards PERIOD? (loss)

Risse: I don’t know which makes me shake my head more: Griese’s 407 yards? Or the 67 attempts? (Loss)

Seattle-37 vs St. Louis-13

Chuck:Seattle has the manager from Starbucks playing Wide Receiver and still managed to blow out St. Louis…..sad. (win)

Risse: I HEART John Carlson. He saved the day when I was down and out for a TE in fantasy. (Win)

Denver-34 vs New Orleans-32

Chuck: The Broncos offense is actually kinda scary, I still want to see them play against an elite team… so I’m gonna hold off on annoiting them AFC powerhouses. (win)

Risse: Their offense is scary. So is their defense, just in an almost-give-the-game-away kind of way. But Cutler and the crew lit it up (Win).

San Francisco-31 vs Detroit-13

Chuck: Frank Gore is a monster. This guy has been a top 5 running back when the Niners had NO passing game. So what do you think he’s going to do now that Martz has the team throwing the ball?… BEAST MODE. Gore might get the rushing crown this year… seriously. (win)

Risse: First the Mayor of Detroit had to resign and now this? Revenge of the Martz was a dark day in the D. I tried to rep my Bell side and made my pick for Detroit (and against coworkers!) but I really knew better when I did it. (Loss)

Indianapolis-21 vs Jacksonville-23

Chuck: Indianapolis really should be 0-3 right now, if it wasn’t for the Vikings’ meltdown last week. Its FEASIBLE that the Colts will miss the playoffs if they keep playing like they are now. (loss)

Risse: A prediction loss never felt so good! Because those who know me recall that I’m never gave big-headed Peyton any props. I had a vendetta on him before it was ever cool to hate on Tom Brady. So I am super-juiced that Garrard and the Jags proved everyone–including me–wrong. (Loss)

Baltimore-28 vs Cleveland-10

Chuck: Ray Lewis laid Kellen Winslow out today, I’m going to look for footage of that one so I can post it. (loss)

Risse: I like Kellen but some sinister part of me likes when Ray Lewis punishes these young boys for trespassing on his field. Romeo needs to flip the script on the Browns game plan ASAP (Win).

Philadelphia-15 vs Pittsburgh-6

Chuck: Pittsburgh really surprised me today, six points from a team that good. What happened to Willie Parker? Philly didn’t exactly light the scoreboard up themselves but they’re proving to be a team to be reckoned with. (win)

Risse: The Steelers still have to prove their worth this season before I crown them anything. Ben the Berger is gimpy and truth be told, their two wins came against the Texans and the Browns. Their loss at the hands of the Eagles. See the difference? (Win)

Dallas-27 vs Green Bay-16

Chuck: Aaron Rodgers ain’t ready for the big times, he’s playing above his head right now and I expect him to be brought down to earth sometime this season. Dallas is….Dallas. (win)

Risse: He took the loss, but Aaron Rodgers still put up respectable numbers vs. the Cowboys. Did I mention no interceptions. Can you say hi haters? (Win)

Week 3 record (thru Sunday games):

Chuck (10-5)

Risse(9-6)

Monday Night Football recap–TBD.
