SL Rams - 84% on Minny

Jacksonville - 85% on Indy

[gopherbob]

MINNESOTA: a good defensive team vs a poor road team.
CHICAGO: following the magical defensive team another week.
NY JETS: oakland gave up and has to cross the country
JACKSONVILLE: another good defensive team getting points
ARIZONA: more a bet against a team crossing the country giving points.

yards: 332

 

[sakras]

Carolina
--------
Carolina can ensure themselves of a playoff berth with a win vs the tough Bucs. Carolina has played close tight defensive games on the road and come home now to route TB. TB's road record doesn't favor them in this one.

Minnesota
----------
Minnesota is playing at their best right now and are looking to get into the playoffs. Stl is going the other way giving up way too many points defensively. Minnesota wins by 2 tds.

Tennesse
---------
Tennesse was clicking offensively until last week vs the undefeated Colts. Look for the Titans to take it out on the 1 win Texans. Houston has already given up on the season which makes Tennesse an overwhelming favorite to win big.

SF
----
SF can keep this one close if they can stop the run. Seattle is known not to run up the score sitting their starters late in the game. Look for a backdoor cover with the 49er's.

Baltimore
--------
Denver will most likely win this game SU but I feel Baltimore will keep it close late in the game. Denver likes to rush the ball when leading which keeps the Ravens within 2 tds.

[waco]

1.ST. LOUIS - MINN OVER RATED. THEY HAVEN'T BEAT A TEAM WITH A WINNG RECORD. TOO MANY POINTS HERE
2. CHICAGO - THIS MIGHT BE A 3-0 FINAL. DEFENSE AND WEATHER MEANS UNDER BIG TIME
3. OAKLAND - QB FOR OAK MIGHT RUN FOR 100 YARDS AND MARTIN MIGHT NOT PLAY FOR JETS
4. GIANTS - PHIL HAS PACKED IT IN FOR THE YEAR
5. DENVER - WILL BE PUMPED AFTER LOSING LAST WEEK
324

 

[minnyace01]

MINNESOTA - good home team vs. poor road team. Vikes are on a run right now.

CINCINNATI - to much offense for the Browns rookie QB to stay close to.

NY GIANTS - hard to like the Eagles at this point and time. Giants just the better team right now.

SEATTLE - afraid of the letdown off of Monday night game, but they struggled at the end of the game the last time they played and that should be enough to keep them focused.

DENVER - just to much offense for the Ravens to stay in the game.

Tiebreaker - 355

 

[javahh]

Baltimore - Getting too many points. Denver loss last week may have some revenge factor, but Ravens D will keep it close.

Kansas City - Two words: Larry Johnson. Will run and run.

New England - Buffalo lost heartbreaker last week. Patriots are still reigning champs. Will cover spread.

Oakland - NY is a very bad team. Raiders not much better, but enough so, they get the victory.

Green Bay - Favre as QB vs. ?? Lions have no leader and no direction.

TB = 347

JACKSONVILLE- THE JAGS WILL LOSE BUT IT WILL BE A CLOSE GAME SEE INDY WINNING BY 3-6 PTS
PITTSBURGH- VEGAS ISN'T STUPID WITH THE WOTLD ON CHICAGO I WILLTAKE PITT

[One Putt]

New England...Good spot to get it together against a team that will find a
a way to lose.
Chicago...No trouble stopping this offense. Will find a way to score some and
win outright.
Jacksonville...Came close in the first meeting. Home should help.
NY Giants...Will beat up this demoralized and beaten up team
Atlanta... Big lopsided win for the superior team

407

 

[RealSlimShady]

Oakland......The Jets are pathetic!

New England......Buffalo is slumping and will get beat at home by at least 7.

KC....Chiefs beat Denver last week and Denver is a better team than Dallas. Outright Chiefs victory on the road.

Bears......Pitt probably will win the game, but I'll take the points with the stingy Bears defense.

Houston.....Battle of two bad teams....Take the points!


Tiebreaker: 425yds

 

[PSUONE]

Jaguars-Jags defense has given Colts problems in past. Jax is tough place to play and will be difficult for dome Colts. Both were picks in Stardust.

Bucs-Too many pts for this division rivalry

Jets-Fezzik best pick. Oakland new QB. Raiders cant handle cold.

Texans-Too many pts for Houston team playing better. Tenn banged up. Fezz pick in Stardust.

Browns-Dogs are due and this is classic over betting on favorites. Too many pts for rivalry. Browns stats are better than record. Iskoe pick in Stardust.

[THE POSTMAN!]

1. Green Bay - brett is due for a win.
2. New England - dillon is back.
3. New York Giants - philly loses another all star, call it a yr.
4. Carolina - i just think that d is too much for baby simms.
5. Indy - f'ck it i'm on this train.

tb - 325:+clueless

 

[muskatel]

1. Indy: I'm a square player. I'll let the sharps play Jax.

2. Denver: Denver needs the win. Baltimore doesn't cover on the road & Baltimore doesn't have an offense.

3. Cincinnati: Cleveland is pathetic & Cinci is on the verge of breaking out to a Super Bowl candidate team (next year).

4. Carolina: Defense is helping Carolina cover almost every week. Foster playing well too.

5. Chicago: I always give the edge to a good defense when confronting a qb with a hand in a splint.

Tie Breaker: 361-yards.

 

[opotus]

Washington - Arizona still the same old Arizona, Washington better than their record, small enough spread

New England - Pats need to establish a streak if they want to have any chance to make noise in the playoffs

St. Louis - Minnesota's run hasn't been against very good teams, Rams a dome team, I'll take the points

NY Jets - Jets keep trying hard to win, and Oakland doesn't care anymore, and on the road

Dallas - KC in a prime letdown spot, playing on the road, Dallas still tough

TB=399

 

[MadCapper]

Steelers. They will blow out the Offensive Inept Bears at home.
Patriots. Bills are hurting and will have no answer for Brady
KC. Dont think Dallas covers 3.5 here. KC is a solid team.
Redskins. Still something to play for. Arizona doesnt.
Packers. Lions are done done done. Favre will go out with some respect!

424

 

[bobofarabia]

the faves have been covering so let's go with some faves this week

cincy-whole lotta chalk but i think the browns are dead and done, cincy is just looking to good. 2 td win

pitt-has to win this game. da bears still aren't really tested, qb's will make mistakes, the steel curtain shakes the rust off this sunday

NYG-hopefully the line doesn't go even higher before game time. the eagles have had the roughest season out there this year, i think they are done and the giants have to win

Car-tb has to win but the panthers are the better team and will prove it at home

Was- should have a better record, had some tough breaks are coming back to finish strong, don't count them out. arz gots nuttin'

tb-301

 

[pvcpipe]

Buffalo
Great at home, crappy on road. Home this week. Playing a lot of home dogs as trend can't continue forever.

Jets
Tuiasa...Tusia.....I can't even pronounce his name. Not taking any away favs this week.

Tampa
Every person on this board is on the panthers, and not all you f'ers can be right.

N.O.
Fat line for a pretty mediocre Atlanta squad. Like the Saints outright.

Jax
Not a colts hater, but pointspread tax too high for faves and especially indy.

tie break: 400

 

[chonk]

Carolina
Beaten TB 5 straight.

Indy
Offense is running on all cylinders and Jags won't be able to keep pace with Garrard at QB.

Chicago
This will be decided by a late FG.

NYG
I don't know how the Eagles will be able to score.

Green Bay
Dome team playing in GB in December. Easy cover.

tb-416

 

[colhoopsman]

1 tb like the coach
2 chi love the d
3 oak jets stink
4 nebrady the man
5 kc dall is fading
431

 

[Betmonkey]

St Louis....MINNY can't be that good that quick??
Jacksonville....They can get within 9pts...they seem ready
DET....I think they lose by 3
TB....I like getting that many pts in a DEF game
NE...THey pull it together for the end of the season.

495 yds

 

[stump]

arizona - wash 2nd straight road game, too inconsistant
dallas - kc off big win, dallas off 2 straight losses, dallas' season here
indy - jax not in indy's league
pittsburgh - chicago's streak ends
denver - rout

403

 

[kelp0027]

tenn: huge offensive performance here due to gr8 matchups at wr and cb

chic: who are steelers? chic tuffer than ya think

new eng: start playoff drive; find a way to win and cover

cinti: going strong now; can browns stop em even once

oakland: just plain due for a real performance today

tb = 243.5

gl

:smoke

 

[highnine]

Bucs
Big game for both teams. Think this will be field goal game so will take dog.

Bears
Too many point as this likely gets to 7 by game time. PIT QB hurting.

Jets
Raiders change QB's and are favored? I know Jets been pitiful lately but will take the points.

Eagles
Not as bad as Monday night game. Line inflated.

Chiefs
Have rushing advantage.

TB=393

 

[sell24]

Saints - they covered the first time plus Atlanta has been sucking

KC - ill take the points with a hot team in a must win situation

Bears - wow my third dog .. im done for but this dog's defense got some bite

Skins - i like this teams defense and zona's lack of it

Giants - eagles have packed it in after mondays debactle

tb =334

 

[THE HITMAN]

CAROLINA: possibly the best team in the NFC. They walloped Tam first time around and now they are at home. Special teams advantage, Foster is ready & Tam may have kicking problems.

CINN: A lotta points to spot, but I just feel like they are ready to put a licking on the poor road performing Browns.

MINN: Seems like two teams headed in the oposite direction. STL has a lotta injuries.

WASH: Ariz doesn't have much besides their receivers, Wash in the thick of a hunt.

GBAY: They are gaining 30 ypg more than they are allowing, still playing hard. Det, with new coach, are looking towards next season. Det 4-33 last 37 on the road.

TB 356

 

[jam]

Chicago
Ben won't finish the game after the Bears walk through the Pitt O-line like a hot knife through butter.

NY Jets
The Raiders have written the season off. There's no way that Tuasusppo or whatever the hell his name is gives them a better chance to win than Collins.

Cleveland
Frye played ok last week and Droughns can run on the Bengals. I'll take a shot with this many points.

Denver
I see a 4-TD win here. Shouldn't be close enough to even worry about the backdoor cover.

Green Bay
Favre is being ridiculed by the media. I expect him to rise to the occasion with a big game.

412

 

[kbhirsch]

NEw England: Buffalo is in disarray and New England is starting to round into playoff form.

Washington: Despite all the close losses, they are still in the playoff hunt and won't blow it against the Cardinals.

Cinci: With the loss of Braylon Edwards and a rookie QB, Cleveland's offense should sputter and no one can hold the Bengals offense under 30.

Green Bay: I think Favre will finally have a Favre-like game. The Lions look like they packed it in about 8 weeks ago.

Pittsburgh: The Bears lost both starting safeties, so Pittsburgh may be able to put up 17-20 points.

TB = 335

tie breaker: 365

 

[dryflyheaven]

1. Jax
The only three games this season in which James was held under 100 rushing yards all came on the road. Jacksonville is tied with Cincinnati and Denver for the NFL's fewest turnovers (13).

2. NY Giants
Barber has rushed for at least 100 yards in four straight games against Philadelphia. Philadelphia is 0-4 in division games this season after winning its previous 10.

3. Seattle
San Francisco has lost 20 of its last 22 road games and has allowed an average of 35 points in dropping all five contests away from home this season.

4. Dallas
Kansas City has lost six of its last seven on the road against NFC opponents.

5. Green Bay
The Lions have lost 33 of their last 37 road games, including 16 of the last 17 against NFC North opponents.
