Bucs: Not too bad...Johnson looked okay...Have to see if htey go with Freeman next week at home against Carolina...

Eagles: Looked pretty dominant passing the ball and defending the run...WIll for sure smack the Raiders next week...


Vikings: Played steady football...Capitalized on the Rams mishaps...Played one of the worst teams in the NFL and won comfortably...Will have a tough, grinding game next week at home against an angry Ravens team...

Rams: Fucking suck...Glimmer of hope with Bulger at the end...But not really...Will go on the road to Jax to take on a team that just got shut out...What a lousy game that will be...


Raiders: No hope...Will get destroyed next week against Philly...

Giants: Cupcake schedule so far...They will lose next week in New Orleans...


Cowboys: Congrats on beating the Chiefs in OT...They have a much needed bye next week...

Chiefs: This was their chance to pick up a win at home against a hurt Cowboys team and couldn't pull the trigger...They will finally end their NFC East opponents next week going to Washington...Another shitty game there...I look for KC to pull out a win though...


Steelers: Did not look like the defending Super Bowl Champions...Only beating the Lions by 8 is not telling...However, they go back home with a game against the Browns...I think they will smack them up and win by double digits, which the spread will indicate next week...

Lions: Gutsy effort...Will have to go to Green Bay off their bye next week which won't be fun, espcially if they are missing Calvin...


Redskins: Looks like they're finished after blowing that lead against the Panthers...They will have 1 more game for their season at home against the Chiefs...I look for another loss here...

Carolina: Delhomme played great, but they could not run the ball for shit...They will have to go to Tampa...I look for Tampa to play them very tough next week...


Browns: Just pathetic...Got a W, but Pitt will blow them out next week...

Bills: Even more pathetic...Will have to see how the Jets play tomrrow night before determining anything...


Bengals: Gutsy win, but obviously got lucky with the penalties at the end...Seem to keep pulling these wins out of their asses...Have a game at home against the Texans next week...Should be tough...

Ravens: Another tough loss...Will be hungry at Minnesota next week...They are better than 3-2...


Falcons: Dominating win...I regret vitally taking the 49ers...Falcons were a team I loved at the beginning of the season...I think they will be fucking teams up for the next few weeks...They play the Bears at home coming off a bye, but I love Atlanta in this spot...

49ers: Didn't even look horrible, however couldn't bounce back at halftime...Have a needed bye next week...


Jags: I don't know if they were that bad or Seattle was that good, but that is not promising for Jax...However, they have the Rams at home next week...Probably a W...

Seattle: Looked good with Hasselbeck...Defense looked good...Like them at home against the Cardinals next week...


Patriots: Vulnerable...Couldn't score in the 2nd half...Have to see after tonight how Tenn plays...

Broncos: Defense looks very good...Orton not making many mistakes and WRs stepping up...Will most likely go against them next week against a fresh Chargers team Monday Night in SD...


Texans: Pathetic they couldn't bring that game to OT...Think they are better than how they played...I think they still will get too many points next week and cover at Cinci...

Cardinals: Vastly overrated IMO...I think they will lose at Seattle next week...

Packers off bye...Has to account for something...Maybe an extra 3 points...I doubt you would take them at 9...

How did they get lucky you can't cheat?  All penalties were great calls.  I tell you what was lucky...that they didn't challenge Chris Henry's catch...because it was not.  That was lucky.

 Leans:

Eagles -13  Raiders are dead ...


Chiefs +6.5 Redskins do not cover at home, to many points even for this Chiefs team


Rams +10 ...  Do Jax deserve to be laying 10 points, even at home?? do Rams have what it takes to cover???


Bucs +3  Question: Josh Johnson at Qb, Raheem Morris coach vs Delhomme at QB, John Fox coach, who do you take????


Seahawks -3 It will be a war,but i agree Seattle at home always do well, and these 2009 Cards arent your superbowl team


Saints -3 i dont think so, Giants are road warriors under Coughlin ...


Texans +4  very fishy line, i expected a -7 line for Bengals, but it seems that every Cincinatti game you have to take the points, example the Denver, Cleveland games and they have covered only as underdogs


Chargers -3.5 I expect Phillip Rivers to pick apart Broncos pass defense, this is the list of QB's Denver has faced: Palmer (week 1), Brady Quinn, Tony Romo, JaMarcus Russell, Tom Brady (not the same Brady, returning from 1 year absence due to injury)

Yeah they were the correct calls, but Cinci was still lucky that the Ravens made bonehead plays to keep pushing Cinci down the field.  I had bengals regardless

You make good points. I agree with you on the Saints. The NYGs maybe getting ready for a fall. You know a lot of people will be falling over themselves to get points with the undefeated Giants, but the Saints are very tough to beat at home.

I'm also liking TB. If they get the hook, I will take them. Might be a good spot for them to get their first win of the year.

Only thing I disagree with you is that Cle has no business being ranked as high as they are. They should be slightly above Oakland.

Power rankings look close to spot on my man. I would swap Minny and Denver and I also think you need to show Cinci a bit more love simply because they are 4-1 in a rock hard division with wins over Balty and Pitt. In all probability Cinci won't win the division but I don't think its fair to have Balty ahead of them after Balty lost 2 and Cinci is picking up steam. Like the lean on SD, NO and TB but I am wary of the Eagles for NO OTHER reason then the fact that I feel like the public is about to get burned on the DD favorites that have been covering for them at a high clip this season. Let me know what you think of my feedback brother!

They are very close to being 2-3, but I guess you can say they can be 0-5 as well...I personally think they are better than the shit they are playing...We will see...
