Week 2 Lock

Ohhhhhh baby! The Skins are back!

I just booked a Super Bowl trip to Dallas since I'm convinced we (yes, it's a collective we) are running the table, securing a first round bye, and Trail of Tears-ing to the Dallas.

And yet, the Skins are three point dogs. At home. Against the Texans. C'mon, I can't stay away from that. The Texans are coming off their Super Bowl. They were amped up for a home game against their division rival Colts, and now they will fall back to earth. It's only natural. There is no way they'll be excited to travel to DC after such a big game.

The Skins do have some serious offensive problems, I will admit that. I don't see us scoring more than two offensive touchdowns in most games. Howevvahh, our defense is so good, it won't matter. The Redskins just held a team with as many offensive weapons as the Texans to seven points. That's why REDSKINS +3 are my lock o' the week.

There is probably no better value than a home dog with a good defense. Teams with good defenses will always have a chance, and if they are playing at home, it's even an even better shot at covering. Home dogs will be a common theme in pick o' the weeks. Stay tuned.

Last Week: 1-0 (Chiefs +4.5)
Season: 1-0
