NCAA YTD: 31-25 (+3.24*)
Top Plays (included above): 1-1 (-0.15*)

New York Giants/Chicago(Ov46') (1*)
- - For me it's Chicago or no one, or the over. So many elements - quarterbacks, pass rushes, turnovers, defenses, running games, desperation levels - just add up.

NFL YTD: 11-12 (-2.47*)
NCAA YTD: 37-29 (+4.74*)
Top Plays (included above): 1-1 (-0.15*)

Houston(-7)(-120) over St. Louis (1*)
- - I haven't read squat about this game, but nothing I could research would likely dissuade me from my opinion that this would be a bad week for a team with road woes to visit Houston.

Minnesota(-1)(-120) over Carolina (1*)
- - Sometimes I have no idea how events in the outside world are likely to effect the participants in a sporting event (in terms of long term preparation vs. raw immediacy; one performer vs. an entire team; etc.), and other times I form a clear opinion on the subject, and this is one of those latter situations where a serious Vikings crew can carry my cash.

Oakland(+7') over Kansas City (1*)
- - A divisional beatdown seems very unlikely. What seems much more likely is some adversity for the undefeated team to overcome.
