Let's get this thing goin'...
Detroit -3 (1.95)
Massive difference in offensive power here.
Pre-season can always be a bit of a worry, but Kitna was an ultra impressive 18/21 for 280 (13.33 ypp) 2 TD's, 0 INT's.
I don't think either team's D will be as good as made out, given they both faced some severely depleted teams pre-season, but Atlanta did lose 9-16 @ home to Indi which is a worry.
Lions went on the road and spanked a pretty poor Oakland in wk. 1. last year, no reason they won't do the same this time.
Cinci -1
Flacco @ QB, on an offense that was already spluttering along.
They av'd 12 FD's and 10.5 ppg in pre-season...but equally as concerning was giving up 24 to Rams in 3rd week, Bulger going 18/25 182 2 TD's.
Cinci didn't ever get on track with a number of injuries, but just about everyone now is back healthy and expected to play.
They won 21-7 last year @ Balt, and have won 3 of last 4 there SU.
Good Luck all
