Early thoughts on Week 8 in the NFL...

[BigWeiner]

Yes Titans could lose ONLY if Vince Young isnt playing again and the Dolphins could keep it close with the Giants as it is in London England so I agree with everything above expect the fact that the Panthers WILL NOT beat Indy...even if they just played last night IMO....both the Pats and Colts will be undefeated when they meet each other in Week 9.....

Actually the Titans could lose with Vince Young. The Raiders have weapons, and a decent D and the Titans are over-rated. I'm not saying they will win, but they could. Panthers shouldn't beat the Colts, but with short rest, and a home game, anything can happen.

The Raiders fuckin blow....their defense is good and thats it...they have no offense and cant score at all...Culpepper is terrible....I would be surprised if they score more than double digit points on Sunday....but who knows....

[TwoTonTony]

I just do not see where Miami has the personnel to stop the Giants and to score themselves.....

Lost another safety
Lost WR Chambers
Lost Ronnie Brown

granted their OL play has gotten much better but it is sooo hard to see them putting up enough points to cover....I see it like 35-17 Giants.....

Also there is tremendous dissention on this Dolphin team...articles almost daily down here about it

I have been starting these threads at the beginning of every week and the input/opinions that have been received have proven to be very beneficial....

Cleveland -3.0 @ St. Louis?

Detroit @ Chicago -5.0?

NY Giants -9.5 @ Miami?

Oakland @ Tennessee -7.0?

Philly -1.0 @ Minny?

Pittsburgh -3.0 @ Cincy?

Buffalo @ NY Jets -3.0?

New Orleans -3.0 @ San Fran?

Washington @ New England -16.0?

Green Bay @ Denver -3.0?

I agree Chad ... These threads are great

I agree Tony...Giants teased down to less than a FG should hit IMO...

The Raiders could definitely beat the Titans....They are 2-2 in games with Culpepper (McCown is the terrible one) and have a very solid D. Also, they have had the lead in every game this season (besides San Diego) in the 4th quarter IMO and they have much more success outside their division. Not to mention the health of Vince may limit his running but I doubt it. Still very possible

I think Denver handles Green Bay....I love the AFC vs. NFC especially at home in Mile High. Broncos right the ship..

One of my biggest plays in Week 8 is going to be the Broncos....I even said this 2 weeks ago hoping that the line would be a FG or less and it is....gonna have to take this before it goes higher than the -3.0....the Packers cant run the ball and arent gonna have success against the #1 ranked pass defense in all of football.....Broncos win by at least a TD IMO...love it!!!

[Chado1]

Jags @ Bucs O/U is 33....

Garrard is out...also that is the lowest set total of the season so far....might tease it to 40 with one of my options aswell....

Tom Pelissero of the Green Bay Press Gazette reports Brett Favre "grimaced and grabbed his shoulder after pulling back a pass during a passing drill."
After a brief discussion with a member of the training staff, Favre returned to the drill, but there is no indication if Favre threw any passes at that point. Considering Favre's iron man history, assume this is a minor glitch until further notice

Thanks for the info big guy..

You know he will still play with that consecutive games played streak but dont know whether it will be a factor....we will have to wait until later in the week to know for sure what the deal is....

7Pt Teaser Analysis:

Colts +.5 - think they might get a battle here.
They win but don't cover the 6.5 Tease them.

Vikings +8 -Looks solid.

Giants -2 - probably not going to use them. This game scares me somewhat being played in England. Think the Giants play a sloppy game and the Phins will be right there to win this one. Pass

Titans -.5 - Love the Titans in a teaser. Raiders can't stop the run which is not good on the road. Titans have the best run defense in football and when you stop the Raiders from running the ball they are dead in the water.

Bills +10 - Jets QB situation in shambles. This will be a close game.

Chargers? - where this game will be played is unknown. Assuming Arizona. The line was at 9.5 with the game being played at Qualcom. Guessing the line will be around 7 if played elswhere. If the game is played at the Q its a definite play.

Will be playing the Titans in a teaser. Just looking for that 2nd team.

Already played the Titans and Vikings earlier for a small teaser.

Totally agree with ALL of the above....Titans for sure...VY or no VY....Raiders str8 up blow...

Either Colts or Bills will be my 2nd option for the tease....
