    1:00 Tennessee-1 over New England
    The Titans come into this game on a 2 game winning streak. Last week Tennessee dominated the Steelers by the score of 30-13 in Pittsburgh. That was an excellent road performance. In that contest the Titans held down the Steelers big 3 receivers (Ward, Burress, Randel El) and held Pittsburgh to just 13 points. The Titans come into this game playing well on both sides of the ball. They have allowed just 25 points in their last 2 games against New Orleans & Pittsburgh. The Patriots do not possess offensive weapons that New Orleans & Pittsburgh have on there teams. So how will New England score? Well last season in mid December, New England mustered just 7 points against this Titans defense. New England lost that game 24-7. The Patriots starting QB Tom Brady comes into this game less then 100% healthily, playing with a banged up arm. Tennessee is healthiler and playing solid football right now. They beat New England last season and we expect them to do more of the same in this game. We like our chances with the Titans over the Patriots in this spot.

    1:00 Green Bay -2 over Seattle
    It does not take much to light a fire under Packers legendary QB Bret Farve. When Farve is playing in a game that is meaningful for a particular reason, he brings his best game. Monday Night he played excellent and led the Packers over the Bears. Now he should be able to get up for this game in Lambeu Field against his former coach Mike Holmgren & the Seattle Seahawks. After winning 3 straight games to start the season, the last thing that the Seahawks wanted was a bye week. Seattle is a dismal, 0-3 ATS over the last 3 seasons & 3-10 ATS since 1992 after a bye week. While Seattle was resting up last week the Pakers handled their business against Division rival Bears on Monday Night Football. Green Bay is pocket bulging 4-0 ATS after Monday Nigh Football over the last 3 seasons & 14-6 since 1992. This tells us that this is a better spot for the Packers then it is for the Seahawks. Getting the Packers in Lambeau at this line is always a good thing. Green Bay is 5-1 ATS as a home favorite of 3 points or less over the last 10 years. With all the information in mind we feel confident that the Packers will grab the Cash against Mike Holmgren & the Seahawks.

    1:00 Carolina -6.5 over New Orleans
    What a job Peyton Manning did last week to this New Orleans Defense. The Saints allowed Manning to throw 6 Touch Down passes. If the Saints allow Carolina starter Jake Delhomme to throw half of what Manning threw last week, it could very well be another long day for the Saints team. Delhomme does not have to do all that much with the defense that the Panthers have. He completed 17 of 27 passes for 168 yards and a touchdown last week against the Falcons. The Panthers won last week and have a string of 2 straight games of holding its opponent to under 10 points. Carolina is a profitable 34-14 ATS & 29-19 SU when playing against a team with a losing record dating back to 1992. Carolina should be able to run the ball with Workhorse RB Steven Davis. Control the clock and play defense is what Carolina does best. We feel confident that the Panthers will get the job accomplished at home against the Saints.

    1:00 Denver +3 over Kansas City
    Not that this classic AFC rivalry needs more spice to it but we must mention that both teams come in tied for first place in the division & have perfect records of 4-0. Denver is 3-1 SU & ATS in the last 4 meetings against the Chiefs. In the most recent meeting Denver won 31-24 back on 12/15/03. Denver ran the ball for almost 200 yards and that was the blueprint to the victory. Denver RB Clinton Portis should play and be effective in this game. As for Kansas City RB Priest Holmes , he will be zeroed in on by the Denver defense. The Broncos defense has allowed just 89 rushing yards per game on the average. Denver has a bunch of speedy linebackers that should be able to contain the Chiefs running attack. Kansas City's signal caller Trent green has been downright awful. Green has just 4 touchdown passes & 5 interceptions. It is amazing that Kansas City is 4-0 with a QB playing like that. Denver Qb Jake Plummer has 7 touchdowns this season and has been waiting for a game like this his whole career. Look for Denver to play a great game and grab the cash against the Chiefs in Arrowhead Stadium.

    4:15 Washington +5.5 over Philadelphia
    The Eagles have not played good football at all this season. Their Qb McNabb has not thrown for a touchdown pass yet this season. The Eagles come in as a hefty 5.5 point favorite in this NFC divisional rivalry game. Washington is a profitable 18-6 as a road underdog of +3.5 to +7 points dating back since 1992 while Philadelphia is only 3-4 ATS as a home favorite of -3.5 to -7 points over the last 2 seasons. The Redskins have played in some tough football games this season. All of Washington's games have been decided by 3 points or less this season. That makes the 5.5 points that much more better. Look for this game to be a tightly played game and we like our chances with the road underdog in this Division Game.

    4:15 San Francisco -7 over Detroit
    The 49ers have now lost 3 straight games after they pounded the Bears in Week 1. What is wrong in the Bay Area? Whatever it is it should get corrected this week. There is way to much talent on this San Francisco team for them to play this bad. They must get the ball to Terrell Owens. They should be able to move the ball against the Lions defense that allows 379 total yards per game. Although they usually do not start off this slow San Francisco is an October team. The 49ers are 6-2 SU & ATS in the month of October over the last 2 seasons. The Niners should look at the film for Week 1 where they scored 49 points and get back to doing those things. The Defense knows it all starts with them. Everyone has to play a solid game in order for the Niners to snap the losing skid. This could very well be a must game as far as the San Francisco season is concerned. Look for a big response from the Niners this week.

    8:30 Pittsburgh -7 over Cleveland
    The Browns have just been terrible this season on both sides of the ball. The Browns defense is allowing 5.2 yards per carry this season. That has Zeroed & Bettis licking their chops for this Steelers offense. After beating the 49ers 2 weeks ago we could not figure out what team came to play last week against the Bengal's. Cincinnati shut out Cleveland on offense in the second half en route to a 21-14 victory over the Browns. The Steelers survived the month of September going and have a record of 2-2. Now this is there time of the season as they get ready to play there first game in the 10th month of the year. Pittsburgh is a terrific 7-1 SU & 7-0-1 ATS in the month of October over the last 2 seasons. This is the perfect time for Pittsburgh to turn it around against a shaky Cleveland team. Look for Pittsburgh to run right through the Browns line and produce a solid offensive game. Cleveland should struggle on offense against this Pittsburgh defense, make us feel all the more confident in our selection with the Steelers.
