I was again only 5-9 last week. Today begins the comeback!
Cincinnati 3 over Kansas City (home). PICK: BENGALS. A hard one to pick. Both teams have been disappointing. But KC has a hard time scoring; and the Bengals are due to break out.
Jacksonville (home) 6.5 over Houston. Pick: TEXANS. Just a gut feeling. The Texans are improving.
Cleveland (home) 4 over Miami. PICK: BROWNS. Cleveland's been a solid home team--just ask the Bengals and Ravens.
Chicago (home) 4.5 over Minnesota. PICK: BEARS. This game was originally a 6 pt spread. I still like the Bears coming off last week's win.
Philadelphia 3.5 over NY Jets (home). PICK: EAGLES. McNabb to cover the spread with his arm.
Baltimore (home) 9 over St. Louis. PICK: RAVENS. I don't think the Rams have covered a spread all year.
Tampa Bay (home) 3 over Tennessee. PICK: TITANS. The Bucs' injuries at running back are key here.
Green Bay (home) 3 over Washington. PICK: PACKERS. They would have won last week if they'd only held onto the ball. They'll do so this week.
Arizona (home) 4.5 over Carolina. PICK: CARDINALS. Even the Cards won't be able to mess up the prosperity of Carolina perhaps having to start Vinny Testaverde.
New England 5.5 over Dallas (home). PICK: PATRIOTS. How can one go against them? They've covered every week, and look awfully dominant.
San Diego (home) 9.5 over the Raiders. PICK: RAIDERS. San Diego to win, but not cover--I'm not convinced yet that all their problems are solved.
Seattle (home) 6.5 over New Orleans. PICK: SEAHAWKS. The Saints appear to be a mess.
NY Giants 3.5 over Atlanta (home). PICK: FALCONS. Joey Harrington is playing better, and the Giants are always inconsistent.
