Lucky
scrambled to an 8-6 record last week which coupled with
week six's blockbuster performance has me feeling optimistic
about Week Eight. Let's get to the picks:
Redskin's
+2 @ Giants
Giants lackluster defense will be unable to slow down
the emerging triplets for the "Skins". Brunell,
Moss, and Portis should all put up big numbers against
the leaky Giant's defense. On the other side, Washington
has one of the finest defenses in the league.
Game Date: 10/30/05 13:00 ET
Packers
@ Bengals -10
Even Favre cannot continue to keep the Packers competitive.
The latest injuries, Ahman Green and Robert Ferguson,
leave the Packers thin at the skill positions. Bengals
will rebound at home after their huge loss to the Steelers.
Game Date: 10/30/05 13:00 ET
Bears
+3 @ Lions
Lion QB Jeff Garcia has Lions more dangerous on offence
but Bears counter with vastly superior defense and rushing
attack. Take the Bears and the points. Game Date:
10/30/05 13:00 ET
Vikings
+8.5 @ Panthers
Vikings really pulled it together in the 2nd half against
the Packers. I expect their "bunker mentality"
will keep it close in Carolina.
Game Date: 10/30/05 13:00 ET
Raiders
-1.5 @ Titans
Home dogs Titans with McNair returning at QB are not
talented enough to hang with the Raiders. The well coached
Titans are struggling to put healthy players on field.
Raiders RB Lamont Jordan is running with confidence.
Game Date: 10/30/05 13:00 ET
Cardinals
+10 @ Cowboys
The Cowboys have played nail biters in six of seven
games. Expect that trend to continue against the youthful
Cardinals. Cowboys makeshift OL will struggle against
Cardinal pass rush.
Game Date: 10/30/05 13:00 ET
Browns
+2 @ Texans
It is hard to fathom winless Texans favored in this
contest. The Texans have shown a total inability to
protect QB David Carr. Expect the Browns to pound the
ball against Texans porous run defense.
Game Date: 10/30/05 13:00 ET
Dolphins
@ Saints-3
Expect emotional contest as Miami coach Saban returns
to LSU. Saints playing in storm ravaged Louisiana have
better tools on offense and just enough grit on Defense
for a convincing win.
Game Date: 10/30/05 16:05 ET
Chiefs
+6.5 @ Chargers
Charger RB Tomlinson was shut down by Eagles. Expect
the Chiefs to copy those tactics to try and contain
him. Kansas City will control the clock with RB tandem
of Holmes and Johnson.
Game Date: 10/30/05 16:05 ET
Buccaneers
-12 @ 49ers
Expect San Franciscos offensive woes to continue with
QB Dorsey up against top rated Tampa Bay Defense. Buc
star rookie RB Cadillac Williams could see first action
since week four.
Game Date: 10/30/05 16:15 ET
Eagles
+3.5 @ Broncos
Eagles swarming defense should throttle Denver RBs.
Eagle offense has sputtered but should get back on track
at Mile High. Expect Eagles to run the bar to keep McNabb,
58 passes last week, fresh.
Game Date: 10/30/05 16:15 ET
Jaguars
-3 @ Rams
Ram offensive injuries especially at QB and WR will
hamper production. Jaguar RB Fred Taylor returns to
exploit Rams beleaguered defense. Jaguars should be
healthy after their bye.
Game Date: 10/30/05 13:00 ET
Bills
+10 @ Patriots
Ten points is too much to lay for a Patriot team that
has struggled to run effectively and conversely has
been ineffectual against the run. McGahee should rebound
from last weeks, 37 yards, performance.
Game Date: 10/30/05 20:35 ET
Ravens
@ Steelers -11
The Steelers are separating themselves from the pack
with dominant offense and defense. The Ravens cannot
run, Jamal Lewis is averaging 2.9 yards per carry. God
knows they sure can not throw it! Fine Raven defense
is hurting mightily with both Ray Lewis and Ed Reed
out. Game Date: 10/31/05 21:05 ET
Big Bet Of The Week
Take the Cardinals +330 to upset the Cowboys.
This Cowboy team finds ways to keep things close. I
will always take 3-1 in close games.
Bonus
Big Bet
Take the Bills +325 to upset the Patriots. The
Bills strengths, pass defense and rushing attack, match
up well against this years Patriot squad.
