Would like to hear your thoughts... Nothing locked in for me yet.... This has been what I been thinking so far

Carolina vs Pitt (-14.5)

Who remember Pitt's Thursday game last year? 9.5 point favorites on the road to Cleveland, Lost outright. Last season and this season 1-4 ATS as double digit favorites.

Dallas(-7) vs Arizona

No thoughts really other than I don't think this game should of been on Christmas day. Dallas shouldn't lay 7 points to anyone especially on the road. I'm not buying Jason Garrett yet.

Detroit vs Miami (-3.5)

First thought is take the points, but I think Miami handles business this week.

SF vs St. Louis (-1.5)

The thought that one of these teams might make the playoffs makes me wanna throw up. 

Washington vs Jax(-7)

I will glady lay a touchdown with a team fighting for a playoff spot/division title, especially when Rex Grossman is QB and he actually had a decent performance the week before.

Tenn vs KC(-5)

I hate 5 point spreads I usually take the dogs but I love betting KC at home. They have one of the best home field advantages in the NFL.

Baltimore(-3.5) vs Cleveland

Under under under???  Is it me or does anyone see this game struggling to break 21?

NYJ vs Bears(-1)

Jets Moneyline? Anyone? Anyone? Echo echo.... 

NE (-9) vs Buffalo

NE on cruise control right now.... Buffalo +9 @ home... Fitzpatrick playing well... too good to be true?

SD (-9) vs Cincy

My favorite game of the week. Who is on Cincy with me??? This will be my largest play this weekend.

Indy(-3) vs Oakland

Very scary game for Peyton. If McFadden has his way Peyton will have limited possessions to try and take this game over.

Houston (-2.5) vs Denver

I can't lay money on Houston as a road favorite, they can't play complete games... it seems like it takes them a whole half to get going and by that time it is too late with that horrible defense.

NYG vs GB(-3)

That Eagles game ripped the GMen hearts out. I see a big let down here and a double digit Packers win.

Seattle vs TB (-6)

No comment these teams kill me every week.

Minn vs Philly(-14)

This is JV vs Varsity. I don't like laying big chalk but I would consider this.

SD (-9) vs Cincy

My favorite game of the week. Who is on Cincy with me??? This will be my largest play this weekend.
I am also   because Chargers fall into same system as other teams have done won two games HUGE   lose 3rd ats
 
last tow games they won 31-0  and 34 - 7 
Patriots after two blowouts  45 - 3   36 - 7  almost lost at home to GB
 
Giants after two huge wins  31-7  21 -3  LOST at HOME 
 
Chagers looking ahed to Broncos at home finale  def not copver this fat spread execpt a fg win
 
Minn vs Philly(-14)

This is JV vs Varsity. I don't like laying big chalk but I would consider this.  ummmmmmmmmmmm if Giants lose Eagles will not play starters full game  might go with Kolb  final two games
 
repoted on sports channel 
 
also on Philly sports radio 
 
final two games are meaningless to philly except for seeding

Chargers looking ahead to Denver LOL?  Why would they even be thinking about that mighty poweer house Denver?  No TO, Cinci has nothing to play for.  I will always go with the team that still has life compared to a dead dog.  VJ will tear it up,

I would be really surprised if this were the case as they would have a playoff bye to play for. Right now they are the #3 seed as Chicago has the tie breaker. So win/lose for the Bears the Eagles are going to be playing for that bye week. If I were Andy Reid I wouldn't want a first round game against either New Orleans or a rematch with the Giants in place of a bye. This game has blowout written all over it I have to think. The Eagles are not going to give Webb any time to throw. They are going to blitz him like crazy and he is going to make some turnovers.

I can assure you Philly will be playing all starters Sunday Night regardless of the Giants game outcome. The Eagles would love to have a first round bye and a second round home game. Kolb will not see the field Sunday Night, unless there is a blowout

Final Plays for Sunday: (I know some contradict some of my early thoughts but things change)

Arizona(+7) - I will bite on the home dog getting a TD. Think AZ defense makes some big plays tonight, could be a huge let down for Kitna tonight.

Miami(-3) - Dolphins get this home win.

Jax(-7) - Rex loses this one all on his own.

Jets(+2 & ML+115) Jets got the job done at Pitt last week I see that continuing.

Indy(ML -135) I'm biting on this one, Reminder Peyton hasn't covered for me all year, so I may be the jinx.

Packers (ML -170) Too good of a team to not make the playoffs, Gmen hearts are gone after last week don't think they can respond

Bengals (+8) My favorite play tommorow, don't ask me why its just a gut feeling.
