It is time for picks! Our writing staff gave me their winner picks for Week 1. Notice how we fared on the Thursday night game. But you will notice almost all of us went full homer in our pick of the Arizona Cardinals. Of course, there is a lot to say they will win. However, Shaun Church is the lone hater, believing the Saints will get the road win.
Unlike most weeks, there is no unanimous pick. It's probably a good thing, as it seemed every single week last season, there was one unanimous pick who disappointed everyone.
Here are our Week 1 picks. What do you think?
