Atlanta @ Philly (-6) (36)
Weather. 30 mph wind will hurt Philly more than Atlanta. I think that Atlanta will be able to put pressure on McNabb and with that said will be able to jam the receivers. On the flip side, Philly also has a great D and Atlanta seems to struggle against quick D's (see game at TBay). I look for a close game and if for somehow Philly gets behind, the pressure might be insurmountable. With that said I am taking the points.
Atlanta+6

NE (-2.5) @ Pittsburgh (34.5)
Very cold here in the burgh...game time temp will be less than 10 degrees and wind chill probably less than 0. Ouch. I really don't think Pittsburgh can play worse than they did last week. We live in a world of what have you done for me lately. Pittsburgh wins a game they probably sholdn't have, New England wins against the golden boy. I truly think Pittsburgh wins the line of scrimmage battle on both sides of the ball. Randel El will make some plays with Brown on him in the slot. I also don't see NE playing with the same intensity as last week at home. Bad news for me is that I live here and right now my main local is using 2.5, still looking around for a 3.
