I'll be heading out to the Browns/Broncos game in Cleveland in a couple hours, so unfortunately I won't be able to give description of each of the games this week, but don;t fret, I still have my picks for this week, and plan on another week of success --
LAST WEEK - Straight 8-5
Spread 6-7
OVERALL - Straight 58-29(.666)
Spread 39-48(.448)
San Diego -5.5 @ Kansas City - Give the points, the Chargers have way too much for a Chiefs team decimated by injuries
Chargers 31 - 16
Jacksonville @ Houston +9.5 - Too many point s to give for an enigmatic Jags team that might be without Byron Leftwich. Texans always play Jags tough.
Jaguars 17 - 13
Carolina +3.5 @ Cincinnati - Panthers still not getting any love, and after picking against them last week in balitmore, I've learned my lesson. Panthers win outright.
Panthers 24 - 20
Detroit @ NY Jets -3.5 - Eric Mangini has the Jets playing hard, and the Lions just stink. Give the points.
Jets 20-14
Green Bay +4.5 @ Miami - Neither one of these team should ever be favored by 4.5 points. Can we just not play this game and say that we did? Dolphins win a squeaker, take the points.
Dolphins 21 - 20
New England -5.5 @ Buffalo - The Bills have fallen apart again, and after a week off the Patriots are well rested and ready to dominate the AFC East. Give the points.
Patriots 31 - 17
Philadelphia @ Tampa Bay +5.5 - Gotta love the way rookie Bruce Gradkowski is playing in Tampa. This one is going to be close, though the Eagles pull it out.
Eagles 24 - 21
Pittsburgh -1.5 @ Atlanta - My lock of the week. Give the measly point, the Steelers are back.
Steelers 28 - 13
Denver -5.5 @ Cleveland - Broncos haven't done well against the number this season, unless you take the under. I like that to change this week, though it will be a fight.
Broncos 24 - 13
Arizona @ Oakland +3.5 - Arizona can respond twi different ways to the Monday Night collapse, I think they come out fighting...
Cardnials 17 - 14
Minnesota @ Seattle -6.5 - A lot of people think this game is going to be close, I'm not one of them. Seahawks are awesome at home.
Seahawks 27 - 14
Washington +9.5 @ Indianapolis - On the other hand, with the way the Redskins can run, and the Colts inability to stop it, I think this game could be closer than originally thought, though the Colts still win.
Colts 27 - 23
NY Giants +3.5 @ Dallas - A classic Monday Night affair that should go down to the last minute. I like the hometeam in those situations, and Vanderjagt is a pretty good kicker. Take the points, but the 'Boys win.
Cowboys 30 - 27
