As you may remember, Peter predicted that Tomlinson would have a huge game against the Chargers and give fantasy owners who were trailing by 30 points a sure win.

Here, let me highlight it for you again...

One piece of advice for all you Fantasy wonks out there: If you've got LaDainian Tomlinson, and you're down by 30 points entering the Monday night games, get the victory cigar ready. Three things are in LT's favor in this one: Norv Turner is determined to re-establish him as the centerpiece of the San Diego offense, Tomlinson wants to stick it to every naysayer who thinks, at 30, he's should apply for AARP membership, and seeing Silver and Black is Tomlinson's personal fountain of youth.

LT finished the night with 13 rushes for 55 yards, 1 TD and a fumble. He also had 1 reception for 1 yard, and another fumble. There's nothing quite as beautiful as the Peter King curse in full bloom. If you were trailing by 30 Monday night and had L.T. going, you were as fucked as Jake Delhomme pass.

Oh, as for team Moneyline Loser, we had a nice week one win thanks to Santonio Holmes, Marques Colston, DeAngelo Williams and Aaron Rodgers. Fantasy is a lot easier when you're not giving a shit.

Anyways, let's see what Sergeant Pepper has for us today..

* checks Peter King's week 2 picks *

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-1) at Buffalo Bills (0-1)

My hope is Leodis McKelvin returns three kickoffs for touchdowns. He's a good player who doesn't deserve to be media-slaughtered for doing what a kick-returner is paid to do. Namely, return kicks.

He did a risky thing by returning that kick the way he did. He fumbled, the opposing team recovered, scored and won. It was Buffalo's third consecutive Monday Night game in which they got their hearts ripped to shreds. You can blame the defense for not stopping Brady and co., but in a city that is as passionate about football as Buffalo, McKelvin is going to get heat for coughing it up.

He didn't deserve to get his property vandalized, but the media is going to get on him for FUMBLING A CRUCIAL KICK RETURN. That does not mean he deserves to return 3 against the Bucs. He needs to hold on to the fucking ball in key game situations. It's also what he is paid to do.

Pittsburgh Steelers (1-0) at Chicago Bears (0-1)

Jay Cutler wakes up, finds Greg Olsen and Matt Forte, and plays the kind of efficient game offensive coordinator Ron Turner was convinced he'd do before The Nightmare On Oneida Avenue confused everyone last Sunday night.

Wow, he's really sticking to his Bears to the Super Bowl pick. Ballsy Peter, very ballsy.

Minnesota Vikings (1-0) at Detroit Lions (0-1)

In 2007 at Ford Field, Detroit beat the Vikes on a Jason Hanson field goal in OT, 20-17. In 2008 at Ford Field, the Vikes overcame a 13-10 fourth-quarter deficit to win 20-16; at the Metrodome last year, the Vikes survived 12-10, thanks largely to Lions QB Dan Orlovsky running blindly out of the back of the end zone. This is going to be an emotional game, the Lions returning home and starting yet another new era. Jim Schwartz is going to send the house at Brett Favre, and I think the Lions will get there a few times and force him into some mistakes.

Speaking of ballsy. You're either going to look like a genius come Monday or like a big, fat, Jeter loving dunce. Interesting indeed.

New England Patriots (1-0) at New York Jets (1-0)

I buy the Rex Ryan kool-aid. I also buy that Leon Washington is going to be a major matchup problem for the New England linebackers, who made Fred Jackson look like Bo Jackson on Monday night.

Fred Jackson: 15 rushes for 57 yards and 0 touchdowns on the ground. He did catch 5 passes for 83 yards and a score but that's hardly Bo Jackson territory. That used to be an average game for Tomlinson. That might be Brian Westbrook territory and Ronnie Brown territory and Steve Slaton territory...but Bo Jackson??

Arizona Cardinals (0-1) at Jacksonville Jaguars (0-1)

The Jags started two rookie tackles in a season-opener in the 14-12 loss to Indianapolis. Eugene Monroe and Eben Britton (Spelling bee: ask a very good NFL fan to spell the name of the Jacksonville right tackle; if he can, tell him he wins a year's supply of Monday Morning Quarterback columns) allowed only one sack Sunday at Indy. Good sign.

A very good NFL fan will know how to spell Eben Britton because you know, they actually follow the game and the players. A very good football fan will know what Eben Britton had for lunch yesterday. They'll spell Eben Britton and then spell D'Brickashaw Ferguson just to show you how stupid you are.

And trust me, no good football fan wants to win a year's supply of MMQB columns. Well, unless they're depressed and suicidal. Damn it Peer, that is the worst prize that you could give any one. I don't even wish that shit upon Eric Mangini. That's almost as brutal as telling people to read about the Bills at 1 in the fucking morning.
