2 positively mediocre weeks in a row (6-4) After the way this year has started I'll take it. (16-18-1 YTD)
Ravens (-2)
Steelers (-1.5)
Seahawks (-2.5)
Bucs (-6)
Dolphins (-3)
5 favorites. I don't like that, but we'll see what happens.
I can't see the banged-up Broncos win one in Baltimore with Kanell as the starter. He may end up pulling a Clint Longley or a Jason Garrett. Of course, they were both at home and Kanell is on the road.
The Rams on grass and the Steelers are off a bye week. I don't take much stock in the whole bye week thing, unless it's a winless team coming off one. However, it's a must win for the Steelers and I like the decision to put Bettis back as the starter.
Good job Corey Dillon - way to run your mouth about your team after a WIN! I'm sure that wasn't a distraction this week.
I questioned at the beginning of the year whether the Bucs would come out with the same hunger after last year's SB victory (and no, I'm not talking about Warren Sapp at the buffet table.) Well, after last week, it seems to be a good question. However, after all 3 of the Bucs losses this year (which were all embarrassing in one way or another) they have come back in their next game and won impressively. I see the same thing happening here - if they're not up for this game against an up and coming Cowboy team, then they're in trouble. Banged up secondary or not, I look for a long day for Quincy Carter and the 'Boys. Bucs, please shut these Cowboy's fans up.
I see the Dolphins bouncing back at San Diego with Griese at the helm. The Chargers have been pretty bad at home, and I think Griese has a better chance than Fiedler of lighting their young defense up. Not to mention Ricky.
