Well I am leaving early in the morning to go to the Cowboys game so I need to post these now.
Miami + 3.5 over New York Jets Miami is a much better team right now than the one that knocked off the Jets, 31-27, as a 3-point underdog three weeks ago. Meantime the Jets have regressed and appear to have few answers for the Miami ground game that has a solid 1-2 punch with Ronnie Brown and Ricky Williams and which leads the NFL in rushing, averaging 177.0 yards per game. I look for Miami to get the best of Sanchez and control the pace of the game with its running attack.
Arizona-10 over Carolina There is no question in my mind that Carolina has given up on starting quarterback Jake Delhomme as the key to is offense and will for the rest of the season rely on its powerful running game. That might work in most places, but not against Arizona, which has an offense that is explosive and that can put points on the board in rapid-fire fashion. The passing game rules in the NFL and Arizona QB Kurt Warner, who averages 280 yards per game to 131 for Delhomme, should put the points on the board early and force Carolina to play catch-up. Needless to say I have serious doubts about Carolina playing come-from-behind football and that is just what it will have to do in this one.
Chicago -13 over Cleveland It is not a stretch to suggest the Cleveland Browns are a disaster which has not yet reached full bloom. The Browns come into this game off a dreadful 31-3 home loss to the Green Bay Packers and, as usual, looked awful. The story of the 1-6 Browns is all there in black and white. They have the second worst offense in the NFL, and the worst defense in the NFL. Those figures are reflected in scoring, where Cleveland is averaging a mere 10.29 points per game while giving up an average of 25.57. Chicago is a good football team; Cleveland is not. There is no reason to think the Bears won’t delight the homefolks at Soldier Field with a solid and easy win.
San Deigo - 16.5 over Oakland Simply put Oakland is back to the Oakland of old the same one that was shut out by the Jets last week I doubt anything will change here.
