Washington (ML) over the Rams
Redskins rushed the ball 54 times against the dolphins for 181 yards. KC had a lot of success rushing against St. Louis. Playing on 3 days rest St. Louis will see a lot of pressure from the Washington defense. The Rams o-line showed they haven't come together letting the chiefs defense control them all game. Bulger hurt his knee Tuesday but MRI was negative. Don't think Martz won't have him on a short leash with Chandler as a back-up. 2 solid QB's in Washington should be able to manage the offense. Plus after the first team offense leaves for St.L the only weapon they have is S. Jackson. Greg Williams has to call an aggressive game.
3 teamer FH lines
Wash (+1.5)
Minn (-4.5) over SF
GB (+2) over Jax
Both Minn vs SF and GB vs Jax should have offensive production. SF has been very disappointing and Minn offense has looked very sharp this preseason. Well the first team's have. GB against a up and coming Jax team is tough, but IMO the rushing game of GB should be enough to generate some offense. IMO all teams will play starters late into the second. Giving the edge to these three teams.

KC (-3) FH over Cleveland
Against the Lions, Cleveland's offense looked ok with strong runs by suggs and plays made by winslow (hate him). Little mistakes have cost them, fumbles and such. IMO another week front line can be taken advantage of by the Chiefs. However KC's offense should have no problem getting scores against the Cleveland defense. The defense is getting better, not good enough, but better and they should be able to come out on Cleveland and put up points and get some stops. Also look for KC to throw to Gonzo a little more this game, to show up winslow.
