Bills D has given up 14 points in the last two outings against pedestrian teams and is visably a more competitive team without Losman. Both teams have very weak run defenses, but Pennington's arm doesn't stretch the field and Buffalo will be better able to bring another guy into the box and should win the battle on the ground
Buffalo +3 (-120)
Two solid defenses versus two offense who have some QB issues.
Oak/Tenn Under 40
Muhammed doensn't catch that pass last week and the talk in Chicago would have been that Urlacher's overrated, Benson is done, Why does Harris continue to play when he doens't have a good leg to stand on? . . . but since the Bears won, all is well, but glaring problems remain. They've still got some run defense issues that weren't exploited last week and the Lions did try and establish a run game last week and can easily do it against the Bears.
Detroit +5.5
Eagles will be able to exploit this week's opponent weakness - pass D, since that's all that Reid does
Philadelphia -1
Another coach that may have learned a lesson last week about not going after an opponents' weakness. Pittsburgh waited entirely too long to attack Denver's run defense, but luckily for them, they get another opportunity this week against the Bengals
Pittsburgh -3.5
Also like. . .
Washington
Miami
Carolina
. . . but I need some better lines.
