C'mon guys, it's Peyton for crying out loud!!! You don't think he hasn't cleaned up every mistake from the last game?!?!?! Also,  doesn't he pretty much have Houston's number, I don't care what division he's in........

Denver Peyton's - for the Medium-Well - - but not necessarily the Well-Done.........

Broncos in the pick 'em

IF PEYTON THROW 3 MORE INTERCEPTIONS IN 1st QTR I THINK HIS COACH SHOULD ASK HIM FOR DRUG TESTING.

Funny...a post on here sounds like a few people i talked to after that denver/atlanta game...people saying they were on the right side...taking denver but the still lost, lol.  Atlanta really doesnt lose at home and they could have totally crushed denver...but as most teams do, they get a big lead and they dont fully attack...get a little complacent, tentative....prob dont want to run up the score...denver scores late to give the road bettors some hope, lol.  Matt Ryan..now 27-4 at home. side note:   I do think san diego will get by atlanta this week. 

You're right, the #1 ranking doesn't mean anything after the first 2 games; however, Houston's defense returns 10 starters from last year's #2 defense, so I don't think it is all that overrated.  Peyton is Peyton, but he's going to have to work a lot harder to put up points than he did in his old AFC South days. 

Same for the Texans, they used to be able to score at will but couldn't stop anyone.  With the way the offense is built now, the Texans aren't trying to blow anyone out, and Kubiak seems to be satisfied with long drives (even those that ends in FG's), versus taking shots downfield.  I think they will have trouble scoring on the Broncos. 

I originally liked the under at 46.5, but if it keeps going down the over may be the play.  44.5 scares me, because I see each team scoring around 20-24 points.
