Lots of 2 pointers United! Love the CIN pick! Staring @ JAX/TB Under. 2 simple "O"s w/decent "D"s vying for an important win to keep jobs. I predict a lot of Yeldon & Martin.

Until I see actual improvement in PHI's "O", I'm staying away from those birds. It really does feel that the next gm will be the one though, doesn't it?

NYG look like such a sure thing. How can SF improve enough to win here? Heavy public fav tho, so never good. Every so often they win, so why not here?

I'm going to throw this out there, I might eat my words later. Patriots are going to blow the cowboys out. It's not because I'm a patriots fan, sad to say I'm a Texans fan and a Patriots fan second. I think the Dallas everyone remembers that upsets teams and plays good teams well consists of Romo, Bryant and Demarco Murray. Murray is obviously gone and Romo/Bryant are both out. This looks like a great spot for me to face a completely different cowboys team lead by Wheeton who usually loses games. I think the public in general just remembers Dallas playing people tough - so it sticks in the back of their head and they just don't weigh the other factors, aka pats won the super bowl and have (arguably) the best if not top 3 team in football.

With that said, I don't have a crystal ball and maybe Wheeton will show up and everyone can come in and say I told you so. This is just my best guess of what I think is most likely to happen from watching both teams play. Something like 60% Pats blow them out, 30% they keep it close, 10% Dallas win. I think it will be up to Dallas defense to keep them in this game (they have a pretty good D).

Good luck on your plays United!!

I really think Dallas will have to open up the offense to keep this game within the spread. Brady has some weapons, the question is are they tough enough to cover a large spread on the road against an above average team imho. A desperate team right now at home is even more dangerous sometimes. I really think it might be closer than some think. Then again we've all seen how explosive the Pats can be. I just can't get a grip at all on how this game might play out.

Good luck Brady

Following you on Denver and the Giants...hope you sweep!

I advise you follow yourself as you are doing really well. We have a couple of decent teams and we have the Manning brothers, hopefully they both have a good day!

Good luck Swalker

I know what you mean a bout Philly. I really think they played much better last week at Washington and are going to start to make their move while Dallas is down and before they get to fat behind the others in this division that appears to up for grabs.

Good luck Wormy Pix

Pack -1 1/2
KC -1 1/2

2nd half: 49er's +3 1/2 (2) hedging my bet with a chance to win both ways, like 7-10, to tie or win both
