Here are this week’s risers and fallers.

By Dalton Del Don Not sure if I’ve ever seen an uglier display of quarterback play than Tyler Thigpen on Sunday. Imagine Dwayne Bowe with even an average QB throwing to him…The Falcons’ rushing attack is legit, as Michael Turner and Jerious Norwood complement each other perfectly. Turner is a beast between the tackles, and…

By Dalton Del Don If I were laying real money down, I’d stay far away from this week, as it’s a slate I had a terribly difficult time with. I give Vegas a lot of credit, as they were right on with most of these lines. Taking 11 favorites has me sick to my stomach.…

Here’s this week’s edition.

By Dalton Del Don This Titans defense is no joke. Cortland Finnegan is one of the league’s better players few know about…The Bengals have faced a seriously difficult early season schedule, but that can’t completely excuse such a disastrous line by Carson Palmer (49%, 4.5 YPA, 0:3 TD:INT ratio). Things will get better, but with…

Here’s this week’s version.

By Dalton Del Don Last week I went 10-6, including winning my “best bet,” so I’m 1-0 there. Most will say the opposite, but I typically find Week 1 the easiest slate of the year, so unsurprisingly, it got harder for me this week. Here are the Week 2 picks, now with comments. Raiders +3.5…

Check out Week 2’s edition.

By Dalton Del Don For anyone hoping the postseason Eli Manning from last year would show up for 2008, that doesn’t appear to be the case. Inconsistent is his middle name…If Brandon Jacobs somehow stays healthy, he’ll easily finish as a top-10 fantasy back. Maybe top-5. His hands are a joke, though…Jason Campbell is not…

I’ll go with the Colts over the Cowboys. Now let me know your predictions…

More football talk on my weekly XM segment.

By Dalton Del Don Last year I finished 130-117 ATS, becoming the new “staff picks” champ over at RotoWire. Chris Liss has yet to get over it. Now back to prove it was no fluke, Week 1 seemed easy to pick, which means a poor start is almost surely likely. Seriously, loving all these home…

No longer on NFL.com, but now Yahoo. I think that means I’m moving up in the world. Anyway, here’s the Week 1 version.

By Dalton Del Don 1. Indianapolis Colts Last year Peyton Manning threw 14 interceptions; eight of them came against the Chargers, who ended up knocking Indy out of the playoffs. Manning enters 2008 surrounded by questions regarding his health, something unfamiliar with the signal caller. It’s still unclear just how serious the knee issue will…

By Dalton Del Don 1. Pittsburgh Steelers The division is filled with solid yet flawed teams. The Steelers are least flawed.  The offensive line was already a weakness, and that was before Alan Faneca departed. The defensive line is also aging, so in the trenches, this team isn’t what it used to be, and that’s…

By Dalton Del Don 1. New England Patriots After rewriting the record books in 2007, the Patriots actually enter the year with something to prove, as the Super Bowl loss to the Giants no doubt still lingers in their minds. There’s not much to say here; this team is very good and has few weaknesses,…
