MIAMI-PK...The line came out sharp at Buffalo-1. Edwards is doubtful, along with Buffalo's playoff hopes. Miami still has an outside shot with a favorable schedule. Pennington should get this done.
San Francisco+4... This was another sharp line, but if you look at what happened to the Jets in their last two trips to the west coast, it was straight up losses to two losing teams. They lost what ever momentum they had to Denver last week, and have a division game up next with Buffalo. Big Trap!
Cincinnati+13.5...This is more a bet against the Colts. If anyone saw last weeks game at Cleveland, you can clearly see that the Colt's offensive line can't push up the field. Saturday and Sanders are out again. They should have lost that game last week, but a key interception bailed them out. Still Manning's arm is to be wary of, but the Bengals defense should be able to cover well enough to keep this respectable.
Denver-9... I think Denver will be up for this one to avenge that 19-33 loss earlier in the year. If they win their last two home games, the matchup at San Diego will not matter. This was another sharp line, but my power ratings are 6-0 ATS in Denver home games.
Tennessee-13.5...I don't recommend laying double digits, but Cleveland has lost both QB's, and Dorsey is clearly not ready. This looks like the worst possible situation for the Browns. Tennesse will wear down the Browns defense and have their way in the second half. The Titan's could be looking at their first shut out of the season.
Chicago-6.5... This is the Bears 1st of a 3 game homestand. They haven't played that well over the last four games going 1-3, but they are coming off of 3 straight road games. The Jaguars are playing their 2nd of back to back road games and and are 1-5 straight up and ATS, with their lone win coming at Detroit since the Bye week. I am depending on the Bears defense to shut Jacksonville down, and I think Orton should be able to put up enough points to get the cover.
one other game I wanted to mention was New England. This line came out sharp, but has now went up to-6.5, I know Hasselbeck is not playing, but Wallace actually has a higher QB rating. I had this one circled, but the number is moving up too high. The Patriots defense is in shambles right now. They brought Junior back from retirement, but there are still alot of holes. Seattle did play Washington to a 3 point game..careful here.
