NFL Week Two Part FiveIn our final part of the NFL week two review, I will go over two big matchups in the NFL this week. These two matchups have playoff implications and could determine the entire season for all four clubs involved. The two games I’ll be reviewing are the Washington Redskins at the Dallas Cowboys and the Pittsburgh Steelers at the Jacksonville Jaguars. Let’s take a look.Washington Redskins at Dallas CowboysBoth of these teams are down 0-1 on the season and neither one can afford to go 0-2. Someone’s season is going to come to a screeching halt this week. The Washington Redskins were stunned on Monday night by the Minnesota Vikings. They lost 19-16, but they had a shot to sent it to overtime. Hall missed the field goal. Redskins QB Mark Brunell was fairly accurate–60%–but he didn’t throw for many yards and he didn’t have a TD pass. The running game was split among a few backs. Clinton Portis is having shoulder pains again and could see limited action this week.The Dallas Cowboys–all abuzz about T.O. being added to the team–went down to Jacksonville last Sunday. They lost to the Jaguars 24-17 and looked a bit out of sync. Drew Bledsoe quickly raised alarms as he threw three interceptions. He also completed just under 50% of his passes. It was a poor performance by Bledsoe and Dallas fans should start worrying. Jones carried the ball for 72 yards and scored a TD for Dallas. Both of these teams are expected to play hard to avoid that infamous 0-2 start, which practically means no Super Bowl appearance.Pick: Dallas Why? The Redskins offense is horrible. If Dallas can score 14 points, they can probably win.Pittsburgh Steelers at Jacksonville JaguarsThe Steelers may be without Big Ben again this week. He’s questionable, but he’s working hard to show coach Cowher that he’s ready to play. The team has had an extra long rest. They played last Thursday night at home against the Dolphins. They won that game 28-17. Charlie Batch had one of the best games of his career. Parker added 115 yards on the ground and the Steelers defense stifled the Dolphins for most of the night.Jacksonville again won at home on opening weekend. The first quarter was choppy, but the team got it together after that. Their challenge is increased this week despite being at home. Leftwich will need to tighten up his passes and play mistake free football. The Jaguars defense will need to stop the run. If Big Ben is playing,Google, they will need to pressure him and knock him down often. Both of these teams have tough games again next week. It’s go time.Pick: Steelers Why? They have extra rest and could be charged up more if Big Ben comes back. They have a better defense than Jacksonville and Leftwich is prone to throwing interceptions. http://psicologia.forumup.it/viewtopic.php?p=22297&mforum=psicologia#22297 http://www.freeforum.sg/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=278 http://bbs.beiweihy.com.cn/viewthread.php?tid=56290&extra=
