I like the new link thing....I think it took my picks. Just in case, shared them here too.

Yeah it got you. I'll post another full list tomorrow morning during NFL CountDown probably, so anyone that thinks they are in make sure.

Holy sh*t... GameGuru put another entry in this morning at 8am and again at 5pm. Come on, one of you guys is just messing with me at this point right?

As long as you kept the Stele pick that had the Packers over the 49ers, all is good.

Wow 3 of the guys on CountDown are picking Seattle to win the Super Bowl.

No way in hell will the 49ers allow that to happen.

Titans starting in hilarious fashion! Fastest score in NFL history! LOLOLOL

Ouch.

Darius Reynaud takes the opening kickoff return for the Titans. Steps out the front of the end zone to pick up the ball, then steps back in and takes a knee... safety.

Tampa's first drive. A few good plays, nice big Vincent Jackson pickup on 3rd down, then they have to burn a timeout, which is follow by a Delay of Game penalty, which is followed by ANOTHER Delay of Game penalty, which is followed by a ten-yard sack, which is followed by a false start, which leads to a "just get the hell out of this drive" dumpoff pass on 3rd and 35, and a punt.

I don't think you could have had a worse first drive without several members of your team spontaneously combusting.

Ohhh NFL.

I forgot one of the reasons I love you. Comedy.

Lions just flupped a fg snap and now Peterson goes 70 first play.

Adrian Petereson's first carry of the season is a 78 yard touchdown run...well then!

Two safeties so far, big run from AP, derp from the Lions, a Steeler getting hurt, Tom Brady throws a TD. This feels like the NFL.

Don't forget a fight between the Bears and Bengals.

Oh and now a Tony Gonzales TD. Ageless.

Not sure if the Steelers might actually have a decent offense this year or if the Titans are just that bad.

Edit: As I flip back to that game and see the fumble.

Steelers fumble away TD, recovered by Titans in end zone. Way to jinx it.

What tha?? Does that score say 4?

Megatron TD overturned.

Have Stafford in fantasy, I wanted that one...

You forgot the Weeden INT!

Online scoring shows weird stuff sometimes. Should correct soon.

And Tampa bad snap out of the end zone.

3 first quarter safeties today.

Holy steaming piles of moldy sh*tballs, Tampa's offense could not look worse. When a safety on a bad snap isn't the worst thing to happen on offense in the first half of the first quarter, I think I need to start drinking early. I mean, yeah, it's early and there are always some jitters in game one, but Tampa is fielding pretty much the same offense as last year, and they look like they've never met, let alone played together.

And against the hapless jets to boot.

Oops double whopper with cheese, I mean post.

Their defense is decentish.

Yeah, this is so far a contest to see whose offense can look crappier. Tampa's, uh, "winning" that contest right now. The Jets have been generally ineffective, but Tampa has, without exaggeration, played one of the worst offensive quarters I've seen in a really long time. It's not just bad QB play (which has been really bad); the offensive line has been a sieve (Nicks has been replaced with GABE CARIMI), Freeman's been sacked twice, and they've committed five penalties.

Alex Smith might have my favorite stat line of the day, 6-10, 37 yards, 2 tds.

Last time the Chiefs scored 14 in the first quarter was 2010.

Weeden with 3 INTs... oh Cleveland...

Just saw the clip of Suh diving at a dude's knees. Come on dude.

Chiefs with 21 in a half? Whoa...

I mean they are playing the Jags, but yeah.

Amendola already injured?

If Tenn holds on to win, I am gonna laugh a little bit.
