Enter the SportsFilter NFL Pickem: Our long-running NFL Pickem is back starting with a Wednesday-night opener of the Seattle Seahawks hosting the New England Patriots. That is a weird day to play a football game. Pick the winners and spread, making any and all a stone cold lead pipe lock to heighten the contradictions between victors and vanquished. Good luck!

Is this finally the year the Jags make it to the Super Bowl? Not sure, but I am hopeful. Jags or Bengals vs. Rams is my way too early prediction.

The Colts are going to win at home against a Ravens team with a new coach. I think Baltimore will be a slow starter.
