Panthers over Dolphins- Carolina hosts the game, they've been resurgent the past few weeks, and no Ronnie Brown is REALLY going to hurt.
Steelers over Chiefs- There once was a time when teams were scared to death to play in Arrowhead Stadium. That seems like years ago.
Lions over Browns- Because somebody has to win.... I think.
Saints over Buccaneers- No Creamsicles, no chance.
Giants over Falcons- I would have picked Atlanta if not for Michael Turner's ankle injury. This is New York's last chance to salvage their season- Ryan has slumped recently, so this may help.
Jaguars over Bills- Buffalo can't stop the run. Maurice Jones Drew is going to have a field day.
Cowboys over Redskins- Washington's winless on the road, and Dallas wants to get the bitter taste from last wek out of their mouth. I don't care if it's a rivalry- Washington is not that good. I know they beat Dallas on the road last year, but this time, Washington is the dysfunctional team and Dallas is the team in harmony.
Vikings over Seahawks- West Coast team going East, early start time- not a good recipe.
49ers over Packers- Upset special. I think Green Bay will have a letdown after last week's win over the Cowboys, and the 49ers can still make a run at the playoffs.
Ravens over Colts- This has to happen. Indy will have an emotional letdown after the big win over the Pats, Baltimore's defense is capable of bringing the hammer down on the Indy offense, and the Ravens already beat one unbeaten team.
Cardinals over Rams- Kurt Warner going back to St. Louis doesn't have the same resonance of Favre to Lambeau- this'll be more like Cedric Benson against the Bears. Also,the Rams spent all their energy last week against the Saints- they'll have nothing left.
Patriots over Jets- May god have mercy on the J-E-T-S. After what happened on Sunday night, New England will be looking to take some frustration out.
Chargers over Broncos- Denver's slumping, the Bolts are rising.
Bengals over Raiders- The only real drama about this game- will Ochocinco leap into the Black Hole? He's already done a Lambeau Leap and jumped into the Dawg Pound.
Eagles over Bears- McNabb played better in defeat than Cutler did.
Texans over Titans- Tennessee has played better, but they've faced so-so passing teams. Everytime they play a quality QB- Roethlisberger, Schaub, Brady, Manning- they get carved up. Schaub did it once, and he'll hopefully do it again- my fantasy team NEEDS a big game from him and #80.
