Detroit @ Dallas

I just don't see Dallas' O-line competing with the likes of Suh, Williams, and Fairley who is expected to make his first start of the season. I mean, they struggled against Washington, imagine this nasty trio of never ending poundage. The home field advantage will help Da Boys stay in it up I think Detroit pulls away in the 4th quarter winning 28-21. Dallas is the favourite by 1.5 as of today, so I'd actually put money down on Detroit before the lines change. (83% of ppl betting on the Lions so the lines WILL change)

New Orleans @ Jacksonville

The spread in this game is 7.0 for the Saints to cover. Jacksonville has only made it to the red zone ONCE this entire season. New Orleans ranks 3rd in red zone appearances with 14, and Jacksonville is near the bottom of the league in red zone defense. Saints all the way 30-14.

San Francisco @ Philadelphia

No line released yet. We will get to this one soon.

Washington @ St. Louis

The Rams are playing much worse then they actually are, and Washington, well they are playing pretty bad but they are still winning some games. The Redskins are the favourite in this game but I believe that is a misconception. With Stephen Jackson and likely Danny Amendola back in the lineup, things should be a little easier on Bradford. I think the Rams at home should be the favourite in this game and I am calling them to win by more than a field goal. 21-17 Rams win.

Tennessee @ Cleveland

Going into the season you wouldn't think that this would be a defensive battle, but these two teams have actually played great defense so far this season. With Kenny Britt injured, it is time for CJ to step up. Hillis is back in the lineup for the Browns, but I can see this game going either way. Tennessee stopped Ray Rice in week 2, however Cleveland's Joe Haden will probably shut down the Titans' ability to pass. Its basically pick a winner, and I pick..........Cleveland? Just don't bet on this game.

Buffalo @ Cincinnati

The Bills have an amazing offense. Last year, that would have been one of the funniest jokes, but this year its the truth. Both the passing and running game have been clicking and Buffalo has been killing it! What is surprising though, is that the Bengals have the best rush D so far this year. They also get quite a few sacks so the Bills' offense will be in for a much tougher game than in New England. Buffalo is favourite by 3.5 and I think Cincinnati will keep it real close, but still lose. Bills win 20-17.

Minnesota @ Kansas City

Both of these teams have been horrible so far, however, the Vikings have shown glimpses of hope. KC lost all hope when Jamaal Charles and Eric Berry went down for the year. Minnesota only has to cover 1.5 in this game so run with it. Vikings win 24-14.

Carolina @ Chicago

This is going to be a tough game for Cam Newton, as the Bears have a lot of guys who can play QB spy. Newton has been able to dodge a lot of tackles but it is going to be tough against the likes of Briggs and Urlacher. I still think the Panthers can put up points, but they will also give up a lot. I just don't see Chicago covering the 6.5 points here, they are coming off a tough loss, and Cam Newton just got the taste of victory in the NFL. I think the Bears win by a field goal late in the game 31-28.

Pittsburgh @ Houston

Houston is the favourite by 3.5. Wow. My first instinct is to jump all over the Steelers. However, the Steelers coverage is old, and Andre Johnson could destroy them. Also Arian Foster is back, so that may have boosted the line. After considering the factors, I'm still sticking with the Steelers, and not only will they cover the spread, they will win the game 24-23.
