Reggie Bush is a great player, but the difference maker in New Orleans is Drew Brees. Anyone who needed A QB and didnt get him ( paging Al Davis ) is a fool.

I look for NO to improve to 8-8 or so, but I dont think they have any chance to stop Atlantas running game. I hate to say this, but the "welcome back to football in NO party" on Monday night is going to be a little embarressing when NO gets stomped.

Pittsburgh has a rusty Big Ben and a one armed Palomalu so beating Cincy is not going to be easy. Cincy's defense isnt championship caliber like Jacksonvilles and the game is in Pittsburgh so hopefully Pittsburgh will be able to run the ball and keep the ball away from Palmer. If Parker runs for over 100 yards, I think Pittsburgh will win, other wise its going to be a 1-2 start for my team. The Steelers first half schedule is a killer.

I think Chicago will blast Minnesota but havent looked at the other games very closely yet. Minnesota has a very bland offense and I dont see any way they will score more than 10 points against Chicago. 23-7 Chicago is my prediction.
