 We saw some teams with very different personalities in week 2 from
week 1, so I look for week 3 to establish the direction of many teams.

Atlanta Falcons at Carolina Panthers (-6.5)
(49)
|
|
|
The Falcons still struggling to find the form
of only a few years ago while the Panthers continue to look
impressive on offense. A tough road test for the Falcons, Panthers
will be up to the challenge.

Buffalo Bills at New York Jets (-1.5) (37.5)
|
|
|
Both teams off to good starts with impressive
wins to start the season. The Jets benefitted greatly on Monday
night being able to pressure Bledsoe. It won't be as easy in
this one. Should be a great game, and as tough as a road win
is this league, look for the Bills be the better team this Sunday.
And both offenses too good to justify such a low total.
|
|
|
Buffalo Bills +1.5
Over 37.5
|
|
|
Cincinnati Bengals at Jacksonville Jaguars (-13)(41)
|
|
|
Tempting to take the Bengals in this spot
after the loss to Cleveland (they can't be that bad can they?)
and the Jags tendency to play down. But Jacksonville simply
has too much talent to bet against at home against a bad team
battling injuries. Look for the total to stay low with Jax doing
most of the scoring.
|
|
|
Jacksonville Jags
-13
Under 41.5
|
|
|
Denver Broncos at Oakland Raiders (-3)(43.5)
|
|
|
The Raiders lead the list of teams that showed
two very different personalities from week 1 to week 2. The
Broncos are not. They looked great both weeks. Griese is playing
well and behind that offensive line anyone can do some damage.
Three points is a gift and assuming the Broncos play both halfs
they'll walk with this one. Again, too much offense and not
enough defense to go under.
|
|
|
Denver Broncos +3
Over 43.5
|

|
|
Minnesota Vikings at New England Patriots (-1.5)(42.5)
|
|
|
The Vikings will be slowed away from the comfort
of the indoor carpet and catch the Pats on a short week. The
under is too tempting to pass up. And for the winner it's easy
money with my TOP PICK HERE!

|
New Orleans Saints at Seattle Seahawks (-6)(40)
|
|
|
Saints have been better than expected and
the Seahawks worse than expected (again) so we've gotta take
the points in this one.
|
|
|
New Orleans Saints
+6
|

|
|
New York Giants at Chicago Bears (-2.5) (43)
|
|
|
A little tough to believe the Bears are favored
in this one. So much so we should be a little suspicious after
the way both teams performed a week ago. The Giants will slow
down the Bears offense and have the superior running game.
|
|
|
New York Giants +2.5
|
|
|
Philadelphia Eagles at Green Bay Packers (-4.5) (42.5)
|
|
|
Which Eagles teams will show up this week?
A tougher question than which Packers team shows up. They only
have one lately, disappointing. Don't expect Levens back, and
expect Favre to continue struggle as he is still hurt. Packers
may finally get a win, but right now I don't see them winning
by much for than a FG.
|
|
|
Philadelphia Eagles
+4.5
|
|
|
Pittsburgh Steelers at Cleveland Browns (+2.5) (35.5)
|
|
|
The Steelers will win very few games this
season, this will be one of the them. With an extra week to
prepare and not in a position to overlook anyone should play
well enough to get this win.
|
|
|
Pittsburgh Steelers
-2.5
|
|
|
SanDiego Chargers at Kansas City Chiefs (-5) (35)
|
|
|
The Chiefs are in a must win spot and own
the Chargers at Arrowhead. It could be a long day for Leaf,
but I just can't give up too many points with the Chiefs. Chiefs
get the win, but look for 3 point win and take the points.
|
|
|
San Diego Chargers

|
San Francisco 49ers at St. Louis Rams (-16.5) (55.5)
|
|
|
When the line went up I liked the 49ers as
it seemed easy for the Rams to overlook this one. But even if
they do they'll cover this spread. With neither team having
any defense this will go over the unusually high total.
|
|
|
St. Louis Rams -16.5
Over 55.5
|

|
|
Tampa Bay Buccs at Detroit Lions (+3) (34.5)
|
|
|
Buccs are likely the better team but you can't
bet against the Lions who are finding ways to win games. Buccs
not the same team on the road, and Detroit plays them well in
the dome (3-1 ATS in the last four games vs. TB played in DET
)
|
|
|
Detroit Lions +3
|

|
|
Baltimore Ravens at Miami Dolphins (+2) (34.5)
|
|
|
Both teams have solid defenses, but the Ravens
are the superior offense and the retirement of Marino's number
could be a distraction.
|
|
|
Baltimore Ravens

Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins (-10.5) (43.5)
|
|
|
With Cunningham at QB I look for Dallas to
turn things up a notch overall and they'll have a more vertical
passing attack. This will be a low scoring battle and will be
a close game. The points are too much to pass up.

Dallas Cowboys +10.5
