Let’s see if I can put a winning streak going with two .500+ weeks in a row.

 

Atlanta at Baltimore (4.5)

Oh I so know this one is going to bite me in the ass. Atlanta has stunk it up and is facing a division leader. Yeah, Baltimore squeaked one from the Titans, but the Falcons lost to the freakin’ Browns and Lions.

 

Buffalo at Houston (2.5)

I don’t know what will become of this one. Will the scrappy Buffalo team show up and beat the favored Texans, or will the fold-like-a-house-of-cards Bills stink up the joint? Wait a second: Houston beat the Jags last week. Letdown week. I’m calling an audible at the line of scrimmage and going with Buffalo.

 

(6.5) Chicago at N.Y. Jets

The Bears are returning to the scene of the last week’s crime. The Giants are supposedly better than the Jets and lost by double digits to Chicago last week. Chicago usually routes losing teams, but I’ll go with the Jets to keep it close. Wait a second. The Jets beat New England last week. Another audible.

 

Cincinnati at New Orleans (3.5)

I’m interested to see how this one pans out. Both teams seem to be hitting the skids and this might be a good “let’s see who the pretender” is game. I don’t know why, but I’m going with Cincinnati in this one.

 

(1.5) Indianapolis at Dallas

Uh oh. Dallas is playing a good team. However, it’s at home and against a team that is the lone undefeated franchise in the NFL this year. But it’s a winning team. I’ll go with Indy.

 

Minnesota at Miami (3.5)

Looks like Miami is making their “look how good we’ll be next year” push, but I’ll stick with the Vikings. I’ll probably fall for the Dolphins hype in another week or two.

 

(6.5) New England at Green Bay

The Patriots lost last week to a divisional opponent. They’ll win to a cold climate team on the road, especially if it’s the Packers.

 

Oakland at Kansas City (9.5)

Let’s see if the Raiders can keep the streak of losing within the spread going.

 

(3.5) Pittsburgh at Cleveland

Both teams are 3-6, although one should be better than that, and it’s not the squad from Cleveland. Normally I’d take the Steelers in this instance, but this is a divisional game against the Browns. Crazy things happen when these two get together in Cleveland.

 

St. Louis at Carolina (7.5)

I’d normally go with the Panthers but when I saw that point spread my first thought was the Rams losing in a close game, so that’s what I’m picking.

 

Tennessee at Philadelphia (13.5)

I don’t think the Titans will win, but they’ve lost a few close ones this year. Here’s hoping this is another one of those times.

 

Washington at Tampa Bay (3.5)

And to think this was close Wild Card game last year.

 

Detroit at Arizona (2.5)

If only all their games would be this compelling, the NFL would be like … the NHL. For as much as I like hockey (well, I really don’t, but I watch during playoff time), it’s sadly a niche sport. But if it’s financially viable, then that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

 

(6.5) Seattle at San Francisco

Seattle struggled against a divisional opponent last week. Here’s hoping that’s not the case this game.

 

San Diego at Denver (2.5)

I have a feeling winning road games at Cincinnati and at Denver is a bit too much to ask, but I don’t care. My first thought was to go with the Chargers, so that’s what I will do.

 

N.Y. Giants at Jacksonville (3.5)

Let’s see if Emily and company can win one at their former coach’s crib.
