This is what I posted on another forum...

I picked New England to win it all during preseason and I'm sticking to them.

Yes, I realize that Pittsburgh beat New England back in week 8. However, the Patriots had no running game in that game (aka Corey Dillon was out).

Even with all of the injuries to their pass defense, the Patriots still found a way to get it done last weekend against Manning and his bunch.

As for the other game, I'll have to take Philadelphia. Vick is dangerous, but teams have found out that they could stop him by pressuring him with speedy LBs or DEs (see that Atlanta/Tampa Bay game). Philadelphia has a good DE in Kearse and a good LB in Trotter.

Atlanta has one of the better pass rushing defenses in the league, but I think Philadelphia will found a way around that. If I remember correctly, they like to run screens a lot to the dangerous Westbrook.
