I realize the Steelers aren't dominant this year, but I would be careful about betting against them at home.

If NO can put up 62 on the Colts, they can do something similar to the Rams.

I know Arizona's defense is terrible, but after Monday night I am having a hard time envisioning Baltimore's offense scoring 15 points, much less winning by that much.

The Eagles have NEVER lost the week after the bye in the Reid era. And he's been the coach since 1999. That's not a guarantee that they'll cover, but it's something to think about.

YTD: 14-16-1

ugly last 2-3 weeks....quite a few of double-digit spreads this week...

Arizona +14.5. Short week for Baltimore, and I'm not sure I want to be giving over 2 touchdowns. Arizona is nothing special but 14.5 is a lot against anyone.

San Diego -3.5. I have no idea why I stay on the Charger betting bandwagon. Even on the road, 3.5 seems reasonable.

Philly -3.5. No reason just a hunch that Philly gets it done.

YTD: 11-14-1

F- the Colts. Every time I've picked them to cover, they've blown it. That's not a pick for the Titans this week. I'm just staying away entirely.
Jacksonville - On the road, but in a divisional game. They'll lose, but it'll be closer.
NY GIANTS - No way they suffer a let down against the Fins. Do the Dolphins even have a starting QB or are they just in permanent Wildcat?
Detroit - Even with Shaun Hill, this team's much better than Miami.
PITTSBURGH - The Steelers as a HOME DOG?!?!?! Gimmee!
SEATTLE - Gotta go with this home dog too. This is a coin flip and the Hawks have played well at home.

fwiw, the Giants' field is fine in spite of the big snowstorm yesterday. tarp was on, and all that, so no weather issues (sunny and 40s, probably).

As I was saying.
