Medium Size 2 Unit Play:
Cincinnati Bengals -3
over Panthers
Rookie Jimmy Clausen gets his first start at home going against a solid Bengals defense that's led by DC Mike Zimmer...You can be sure that Zimmer will disguise coverage?s and formulate a game plan to confuse the rookie QB in his first NFL start?With OT Jeff Otah likely sidelined again this week, the Panthers offensive line will have a hard time protecting Claussen?on the flip side?I expect the Bengals to dominate the line of scrimmage as their talented offensive line matches up against a Panthers D-Line that?s full of journeyman players?I also expect the Bengals to be able to establish the run and move the ball through the air on Sunday?Trends ? The Bengals are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games in Week 3, but 2-5 ATS in their last 7 road games vs. a team with a losing home record?The Panthers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games in Week 3, and just 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games in September.

Outright Dog Win
Dallas Cowboys +3
Over Texans
This is not only a huge game for the Cowboys but a bit of a revenge game as well since the Texans beat the ?Boys 23-7 back on 08/28 in week 3 of preseason in a game that the Cowboys played very vanilla while the Texans played to win?The Cowboys outplayed the Bears last week outgaining them 410-308 in net yards, 23-10 in first downs and 33:40 to 26:20 in time of possession but lost the game because they turned the ball over 3 times and missed two field goals?this week a very well motivated 0-2 Cowboys team takes on a 2-0 Texans squad that?s coming off a come from behind 30-27 overtime win over the Redskins in which the team amassed 526 total yards but also gave up 421 in the process?in that game Texans WR Andre Johnson suffered a mild ankle sprain and is day to day at this time after a MRI on Monday came back negative?however?it?s likely that Johnson will be less than 100% if he plays on Sunday?the Texans also suffered a HUGE blow to their offensive line on Tuesday when the NFL suspended LT Duane Brown for four games for violating the league's policy on performance enhancing substances?Swing tackle Rashad Butler will likely take over on Matt Schaub's blindside with veteran Ephraim Salaam handling backup duties?it?s a huge blow to their line since the Texans will be facing DeMarcus Ware this weekend?Trends ? The Cowboys are 11-2 ATS in their last 13 games after allowing more than 250 yards passing in their previous game, 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games in Week 3, 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games after allowing less than 90 yards rushing in their previous game..but just 5-11 ATS in their last 16 road games? The Texans are 3-0-1 ATS in their last 4 games overall, 4-1-2 ATS in their last 7 games following a S.U. win, but just 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games in Week 3 and 2-6-2 ATS in their last 10 games following a ATS win?.All in all?This is a bit of a revenge game but more importantly a must win game in my opinion for the Cowboys and they couldn?t be catching the Texans at a better time due to the Texans injuries and the suspensions to Brian Cushing and Duane Brown?Dallas outright!
