TENNESSEE 3.5 over Houston. PICK: TITANS. They're at home; Vince Young due for a breakout game.
INDIANAPOLIS 6.5 over Jacksonville. PICK: COLTS. They're getting healthy, and had a 10 day rest.
San Diego 6 over KANSAS CITY. PICK: CHIEFS. Not to win, but to cover. San Diego has struggled away from home.
ST. LOUIS 3 over Atlanta. PICK: RAMS. Mainly because Stephen Jackson is back.
MIAMI 1 over NY Jets. PICK: DOLPHINS. Miami appears to still be playing hard. The Jets offense is nowhere, especially on the road.
MINNESOTA 4 over Detroit. PICK: LIONS. The Vikings won last week; the Lions lost and have dropped 3 straight. So, easy pick? But Minnesota won last week almost solely because of Eli Manning's generosity. Look for the Lions to put up some big passing yards.
PHILADELPHIA 3 over Seattle. PICK: EAGLES. Philly sure looked tough last week. Even with the loss, they have momentum. Seattle is just not the same team on the road.
WASHINGTON 6 over Buffalo. PICK: BILLS. Watch out for the Redskins' mindset in the wake of Sean Taylor's death. And the Bills are actually 7-4 vs the spread this year.
CAROLINA 3 over San Francisco. PICK: PANTHERS. They're just due to win at home. Yes, the Niners won last week. They're also a 2-8 football team.
Denver 3.5 over OAKLAND. PICK: BRONCOS. Who knows? This one's a toss-up, given Denver's schizophrenic nature. But the Broncos should have won on the road last week; this week they'll get it done vs the still-weak Raider offense.
ARIZONA even vs Cleveland. PICK: BROWNS. It's another toss-up kind of game. But the Browns are 9-2 vs the spread; and the Cardinals have to still be mumbling to themselves after blowing last week's game.
NY Giants 1.5 over CHICAGO. PICK: BEARS. Not, I'm not a Grossman believer. But the Giants have to start Reuben Droughns at RB; and the Bears have Devin Hester.
NEW ORLEANS 3.5 over Tampa Bay. PICK: SAINTS. Key: Jeff Garcia is doubtful for the Bucs; that gives a big edge at QB to the Saints.
PITTSBURGH 7.5 over Cincinnati. PICK: BENGALS. Pittsburgh will win this game, but it will be closer than some think. The Bengals have some momentum, and the weather's not supposed to be too great (again). We saw on Monday what that can do to offenses at Heinz Field.
New England 20 over BALTIMORE. PICK: PATRIOTS. I'm betting the Pats got a wake-up call last week. And Kyle Boller not only isn't Tom Brady; he ain't even A.J. Feeley.
