I’m going to do things a little differently. First I’m going to preview the game between the Jets and the Patriots, and then after work I will do the rest of my Week 2 picks. Work is starting to turn into a slave labor camp so I’m going to need as much sleep as possible between now and my next shift. Here goes my pick.
Jets at Patriots
(1-0-0)

(1-0-0)

Ever since that surprise 28-21 win in the 2010 Divisional playoffs by the Jets things have gone New England’s way. It looks like the Patriots will all but run away with the division, but I see some vulnerabilities. I’m going to flashback to 2009 when the Patriots were favored to beat the Jets in Week 2 of the NFL season. New England had just struggled to a win over Buffalo while the Jets had just beat Houston. Both teams were 1-0. The Jets surprised the Patriots and beat them by a score of 16-9. Oh, and Mark Sanchez was also a rookie at the time.
See where I’m going with this. History may not repeat itself, but the stars may be aligned for a Jets upset. My head says New England, but I’ve got a strong gut feeling that the Jets will win this football game especially since lady luck was strongly on their side when they beat Tampa Bay 18-17. We’ll see what happens.
My Pick: Jets
My Record: 9-7
Stay classy everyone!
HOHOHO!
