Week 2 all wrapped up

Well, for those of us playing and those of us just happy the NFL is rolling so we don't have to talk ND "football"...
The upet special this week goes to Dave for SF over St. Louis, very nice sir. Just a reminder that there are numerous ways to get your picks in, blog comments, email (i'll convert it to a post so others can see the picks after the fact) or the Stepan 357 lab phone.
For this week Jim pulls out the slightest win, in a very even week overall.
So I will pose the following question, who is the biggest bust so far in 2007, I can think of several candidates, but my early vote goes to San Diego. If that sounds odd, the collapse Sunday night sealed it for me. Nothing like going in for revenge and coming out like a whipped puppy. Whay do you think?

Thanks for the acknowledgment, Chris. It's nice to come back from the goose egg.

I agree that SD is the candidate for biggest bust so far, especially compared to hometown expectations. (As opposed to, I'd say, ND expectations, which were low, but not rock bottom. They are now.) I would lay the Chargers' failure at the feet of the coaching staff, which is entirely too enamored of Philip Rivers. Rivers is not an elite quarterback, nor does he have elite receivers. LT is clearly an elite back; does he have elite blockers and schemes?

Prediction: going into the Colts, San Diego will be 6-2. The Colts will be 7-1.
