Tennesee's no good? Denver?
Stats are lying in this one. They have yet to gain consistent yards on the ground all year. They had much trouble with it last year and their line is so much weaker than '02. Bears could cover this weekend, but there's no way that it should happen based on what they've shown their last 15 games or so.
the titans beat the steelers worse than they did oak. den is 4-0. i agree oak is poor this year, but do not get hung up on stats. oak has struggled to make plays on off. gannon has played poorly this year. he has been tenative in the pocket and has consistently overthrown receivers. when he has thrown well his receivers have dropped the ball. jerry rice being a main culprit here. the raiders have more playmakers than chicago. the raiders def was not that good for the entire gruden era. they always played with the lead (for the most part) and the def could cheat. oak has not been able to stay ahead at all this year, and the def has suffered. the game could go either way. however, again i ask why would you bet your money on KORDELL. (knowing my luck he will rush for 200yds. this week). do what you want but i do not see value here with chicago at all. there are better games to play.
