Thursday
NE @ DET- New England, Detroit will keep it close, but the Lions will fall short with Brady and the Pats.
NO @ DAL- New Orleans, With Bush returning, the Saints will bring the Cowboys back to earth. At 7-3, the defending champs are pretty underrated.
CIN @ NYJ- NY Jets, T.O. was pretty accurate after Sunday's game, the Bengals are "terrible".
Sunday
GB @ ATL- Atlanta, both teams have been playing great over the past month, as they both bring 4-game winning streaks into the Georgia Dome. I'll take take Atlanta based on the fact they are in the Georgia Dome, where the dirty birds are 5-0 this season. But this can go either way.
PIT @ BUF- Pittsburgh, Buffalo has played great, but the Steelers are one of the NFL's best teams, and despite their 2-game winning streak, the Bills are still one of the NFL's worst.
CAR @ CLE- Cleveland, Carolina is a mess right now, how long it takes to explain what is wrong in Charlotte depends on how much time you've got.
TEN @ HOU- Houston, they return home after almost beating the Jets in the Meadowlands, while Tennessee is coming off a home loss to Washington, and another Vince Young episode.
JAX @ NYG- NY Giants, the Giants need this win after losing 2 straight in the division.
MIN @ WAS- Minnesota, happy to have Childress gone, Minnesota will come out flying. Don't be surprised to see the Skins down 28-0 after one quarter for the 2nd time in 3 weeks.
MIA @ OAK- Miami, the Dolphins play their best football on the road, and I just can't get myself to believe in the Raiders.
KC @ SEA- Seattle, Kansas City isn't a bad team, but will show they're growing pains in Qwest Field, where the Seahawks are always tough.
TB @ BAL- Baltimore, Tampa Bay beats up on the bad teams, with their 7 wins coming against teams with a 16-44 record, and 3 losses coming against teams with 22-8 record. Baltimore is in that 22-8 category.
PHI @ CHI- Philadelphia, Michael Vick or Jay Cutler? choice seems like a no-brainer to me.
STL @ DEN- Denver, St. Louis is yet to win on the road this year in 4 games, don't expect them to win a Mile High, a very tough place to win if you're not the Broncos.
SD @ IND- San Diego, most years I would pick Indy coming off the loss to New England, but this Colts team doesn't scare me like they have in recent years. The Chargers on the other hand, put the fear of God in me, especially the way Rivers is playing.
SF @ ARI- Arizona, I have given up on the 49ers, just too many problems and have seem to have packed it in. Singletary's days in the bay are definately numbered.
