Today’s forecast.
The losing streak is
now at 4 games, but it’s
time for my weekly football picks. Every Thursday,
I will handicap 1 game, give you my 3 best
bets, and also provide my picks for EVERY game.
So sit back, relax and enjoy.
My 3 best bets are:
Colts -6 over Saints
Rams -1 over Panthers
Bengals -2.5 over Ravens
Colts vs. Saints
The two most prolific passing offenses of 2006
will begin the NFL season Thursday night, as
the Indianapolis Colts host the Saints.
The visiting Saints led the NFL in passing yards
under first-year head coach Sean Payton during
2006, with quarterback Drew Brees throwing for
a league- high 4,418 yards en route to his first
Pro Bowl citation with New Orleans. The Saints,
who also led the NFL in total offense, finished
10-6, won the NFC South title, and reached the
conference title game before losing to the Chicago
Bears.
The Colts, rode the right arm of Peyton Manning
all the way to their first world title since
arriving in Indianapolis in 1984. Manning was
a close second to Brees in passing yards (4397)
in 2006, but led the NFL in both touchdown passes
(31) and passer rating (101.0) during Indys championship
campaign.
Indianapolis will be trying to maintain a positive
streak by reigning Super Bowl champions, which
have won the next years regular season opener
in each of the last seven seasons. The 1998 Denver
Broncos, who followed up their Super Bowl XXXIII
win over the Falcons with a 38-21 Week 1 loss
to the Miami Dolphins in 1999, are the last defending
champion to open their slate on a losing note.
The Saints have a 5-4 edge in their all-time
series with the Colts, but were 55-21 home losers
when the clubs last met, at the Superdome during
the 2003 season. New Orleans won the previous
meeting, 34-20 in 2001, and was a 19-13 overtime
winner when it last visited Indianapolis in 1998.
The Colts are 0-2 against New Orleans in Indianapolis,
with their only home wins in the series coming
in 1967 and 1973, when the franchise was based
in Baltimore.
Indianapolis head coach Tony Dungy is 4-1 in
his career against the Saints, including 3-1
while with Tampa Bay between 1996 and 2001. New
Orleans Payton will be meeting both Dungy and
the Colts for the first time as a head coach.
The Saints aren’t just an offensive team
as they were 11th in the NFL in total defense
a year ago, but ranked near the bottom of the
league in takeaways with just 19. New starters
looking to make an impact on that total are cornerback
Jason David, who will be facing an Indy team
for which he started from 2004 through 2006,
and defensive tackle Kendrick Clancy, a one-time
starter with the Steelers, Giants, and Cardinals.
Key holdovers are defensive ends Will Smith and
Charles Grant, who led the club in sacks a year
ago; linebackers Scott Shanle and Scott Fujita
, who were 1-2 in tackles; and free safety Josh
Bullocks and cornerback Mike McKenzie, the most
reliable members of the secondary.
This is a great way to start the season. I like
the Colts in a shootout by 10 points. So go with
the Colts.
Here are all of my picks for Week 1.
