This game was setting up nicely for the Bears as the defense was built for a turf game, but the injuries on the defensive side are cause for concern, but there?s still some value in the Bears at 10. Chicago?s running game against the Viking?s defense should control and dictate clock. Tice has been criticized all week for not throwing the ball deep to Moss enough. He seems like the type of coach who won?t give in to the media out of spite and plus he will need to put the reigns on his offense to give the defense some rest if the Bears control their offensive line of scrimmage like I suspect.

Both teams are 0-2 and desperate for a win. The matchup that I?m looking towards is the Texan running game against the KC defense that is giving up over 5 yards an attempt. Davis has had some early season fumbling ?issues? and that tends to turn into a self-fulfilling prophecy in the NFL when you get a reputation for losing the ball as teams tends to start stripping. But the Chiefs tackling ?issues? are so bad that if they don?t wrap up, then Davis will run all over them.
With Priest out or less than 100%, KC becomes very ordinary offensively as Gonzalez is the only go-to guy. The offense looks nothing like the Chiefs offense from the last two years and w/o Holmes, they don?t deserve to be laying more than a field goal to anybody

Unless I see the Giant offensive line pick up a blitz and Warner able to get the ball to a hot route, I?m against the Giants. 7 turnovers was the story-line last week, but the Giants only got 13 points off of them.
Cleveland +3 (+110) 1 unit
Saints Oline is the best that the Rams have faced this year and their defense has had trouble stopping the run (even if you back out Vick?s stats). McAllister being gone will hurt the Saints chances, but even with the lack of depth the Saints have behind him, someone should be able to have some success running through the holes. St. Louis is just one more team who has all the stars, but whose offensive line doesn?t give enough time for plays to develop
