NFL Football picks for week 2 (9/17/06 - 9/18/06) - Results and recap

Again, I was 9-7 on the week. I'm beginning to see a trend here.

A few notes about this past Sunday's games:

• How can a QB look amazing in the pre-season, but look like a rookie in the regular season? I guess I should know the answer to this, but I was expecting better things out of Dante Culpepper.
• How dumb is Carolina for trying to get cute with the kickoff return in overtime? It wound up costing them the game.
• I thought Detroit was better than that. Maybe the Bears are for real. I'll tell you this though: I picked up Rex Grossman for my fantasy team this morning.
• Green Bay's season just sunk to new levels with a home loss.
• I'd say the same about the Raiders, but they were already at rock bottom.
• Eli looked good in the 4th quarter, as usual. I wish he'd play like that the whole game.
• San Diego is the real deal. So much for a QB with no experience.
• The Jaguars might be the most underrated team in the game.
