Seems like 8 is more than I can remember on week one. Anyone have historical data on home dogs early on in the season?

Who would you pick if you had to pick one homedog to win?

Leaning Pittsburgh over Arlanta as of now!

I like Pittsburgh over Atlanta, but still a gamble with unproven QB ...

You got to have balls to bet on that one IMO

Speaking of rookie QBs, I LOVE the Rams catching 4 at home. A re-energized fan base that will produce a sell out versus a black out, and a rookie QB that has the smarts and savvy of a veteran. Young, but talented OL that is beginning to gel......I'll take Bradford over Anderson, and SJ over Beanie. Of course the WR advantage goes to AZ, but there is no AQ anymore and no more Warner. I smell upset........

Disagree

This is the exact reason they couldn't beat the colts last year.. secondary was beyond terrible and colts have manning.. easy as that, and that is why they lost.

Agree.

Houston D will be a little light without Cushing but the running game will be much better and Indy D looked horrible against GB. New corner Jackson better than Robinson and will at least make it a little tougher on Wayne. Like our chances here.

I agree with Greek, this is Houston's best chance at beating Indy. If they can't do it now, I really believe they will never do it.

Houston needs to win this one to get the season off on the right foot. Indy might be getting stale. Like the Texans and the points in that one.

GLTA!
