Fearless Football Predictions – Week 2

Someone call the Pope, because we may have a miracle on our hands.

Last week’s predictions for the People’s League were perfectly accurate. That’s right. FIVE-AND-FRICKIN-OH, BABY!!! That still doesn’t mean you should use them for anything other than entertainment purposes. (You listening, Tim Donaghy?) It does mean the bar is set pretty high for the rest of the season. Here goes.

People’s Pigskin vs. Hudson Valley Hawks. The Internet’s favorite fantasy football team had no trouble cruising to victory last week. And there’s no reason for the winning ways to stop here. The Pigskin takes another one.

NFL2K10 RedZone vs. t-bay cuervonatersXXL. Both teams won their week 1 matchups, and both have players in the Monday night game. In the end, though, Vernon Davis will make the difference and lead the RedZone to another victory, no matter what play his coaches call.

Feely Her Up … vs. nuckin’ futs. In addition to Beanie Wells’ gimpy knee, the former Beanie’s Weenies now have to deal with an injury to Kellen Winslow. Both players are being called “game-time decisions.” Those decisions usually don’t end up going well for fantasy players. Look for the futs to win here.

Chicago VinSethBears vs. Fighting Amish. The Amish plodded their win to a narrow win last week, but now they have to face Tom Brady. Children may be scared of Brady’s Javier Bardem haircut (can’t you picture him going out to the coin toss and telling the Jets, “Call it … friend-o“?), but fantasy players should fear his arm. It will produce enough points to lead the VinSethBears to victory.

cowboys romero vs. Team 9. This one is a puzzler. Both teams lost last week. As of this writing, one plans to start Kevin Kolb (who is out for being concussed), while the other plans to start Ben Roethlisberger (who is still out for being stupid). Still, Marques Coltson should give the Cowboys just enough points to seal the late win.

The lineup polls are still open, but they will close Sunday morning, so please vote now if you haven’t done so already. We’ll be back with some NASCAR predictions.
