They'll adjust. And let's face it, Indy has a pretty good record of winning games while having a mediocre defense.

George sent me his picks with the title

Y'ALL CAN TAKE THESE TO THE BANK-
Pitt
Phil
Balt
Atl
Minn
KC
Car
GB
Dal
Sea
Oak
SD
Hou
NE
Indy
NO (35-10)

I am amused that he, a proper Bostonian, would use the word "y'all." That is such a southern word but it makes so much sense as a plural for "you."
The South will rise again. In due course, God willing and the creeks don't rise, I'll have you eating chitterlings and grits like we redneck's do.
Y'all come.

@realjohnboy,

Normally, I never change my picks after I submit them, but this time I'm making an exception - give me Kansas City over Cleveland after all.

@realjohnboy,

You're really into this "aahm an amerikan" thing aren't you Johnnie? It's really got you all trapped in the headlights hasn't it?

@spendius,

You'd have to talk to my scriptwriter about that, Spendi. I just post this stuff that I am fed.
And your attempt at some sort of U.S. regional accent ("aahm an amerikan") is foreign to my ears.
Are you getting close to posting your picks for Week #2?

I made the change, Cowdoc.

You needn't remind me Johnnie. The continuous all-day coverage, almost uninterrupted, for three days, of the Pope's visit, has drawn my attention away from our game.
