Cowboys (-1) ... I think they pull this one out after playing a bunch of teams tough recently without Romo. With Romo, this team is the class of the NFC East ... and I'm an Eagles fan saying this.
Titans (+4) ... let down game for Panthers off a couple of huge wins. Titans keep it close with Mariota at the helm and could pull off the upset as home.
Rams/Bears under 42 ... Rams rarely throw the ball and I don't see this game getting out of hand either way where either team would throw like crazy. Unless there are defensive/special teams scores or easy points set up by turnovers, Rams pound Gurley and win a low-scoring ugly game.
Redskins (+1) ... Unless Cousins turns the ball over too many times, the Redskins win at home in what could be somewhat of a shootout. Saints D is horrendous and they are generally poor on the road outside of the dome. Skins offense is getting healthy. Expect Matt Jones to have a big breakout game as well as he takes over as the Skins featured back.
Eagles/Dolphins over 49 ... Both teams can score when the offenses are clicking and I think that happens today. Eagles will really miss rookie LB Jordan Hicks who arguably may have been there best defensive player other than Fletcher Cox. Eagles should be able to run vs. the Phins and when they can run, Bradford and the offense has been effective.
Steelers (-6.5) ... Even without Big Ben, Steelers roll in this one against the Manziel led Browns. With McCown, I could see a tough game but Manziel still isn't ready to be a solid NFL QB. Leaning over as well but haven't made it a play yet.
Leaning to the Ravens but without Steve Smith and with Bortles playing decent, I'm not sure I can lay more than 2-3 points with that team right now.
Raiders (-3) ... Raiders at home are tough and Carr has been stellar this year putting up number similar to Aaron Rodgers (crazy but true). I think they win by at least 7 and probably double digits.
Leaning Raiders/Vikings over 44 but I do respect Zimmer as a defensive a coach so I haven;t pulled the trigger yet on this one either.
Sucker Bet TEASER:
Packers (pk) ... struggling right now but no way they lose at home to the Lions today.
Rams (+3) ... better team at home with a really tough defense
Steelers (+3.5) ... as stated above, they win at home with or without Big Ben against the Manziel led Browns.
Good Luck!
