October 7th
10:00 AM
Carolina Panthers 20
New Orleans Saints 23
The Panthers just aren't the same team without Jake
Delhomme leading their offense. David Carr couldn't get
it done with Houston, and the oddsmakers don't think he
can get it done even with Steve Smith at wide receiver.
10:00 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars 19
Kansas City Chiefs 17
Kansas City just hasn't shown enough offensively to be
the favorite on their home field. Jacksonville has just
enough offense to be a 2-point road favorite.
10:00 AM
Detroit Lions 21
Washington Redskins 25
The Redskins pound the rock constantly. The linesmakers
don't believe in Detroit's front seven. You have to be
able to run the ball to win games and Washington
definitely can.
10:00 AM
Atlanta Falcons 16
Tennessee Titans 24
Vince Young has become a leader on this Titans' squad.
Linesmakers trust he won't be having a letdown against
the lowly Falcons this week.
10:00 AM
Miami Dolphins 19
Houston Texans 24
Matt Shaub lead this Houston offense to victory Sunday.
The Dolphins haven't smelled a win yet and they will
lose this one by 5 points.
10:00 AM
Seattle Seahawks 17
Pittsburgh Steelers 23
The Steelers playing at home is enough to justify being
a 6-point favorite, especially bouncing back from a bad
loss to Arizona last week.
10:00 AM
Cleveland Browns 16
New England Patriots 32
The Patriots haven't had to sweat out a game yet. All of
their first four contest have been over by the 4th
quarter. This game should be over by halftime according
to this spread.
10:00 AM
Arizona Cardinals 22
St. Louis Rams 19
The Rams can't win without a proven quarterback. They
definitely can't win with Stephen Jackson on the bench.
10:00 AM
New York Jets 19
New York Giants 22
The Giants have looked very sharp lately, especially on
defense. The Jets haven't been able to put many points
on the board this season. Linesmakers expect another
solid performance on the defensive side of the ball from
the Giants.
1:05 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 18
Indianapolis Colts 27
The Bucs are 3-1 this season, but haven't faced an
offense like the Colts feature. Indy wins this one by 9
points in the linesmakers' eyes.
1:15 PM
San Diego Chargers 20
Denver Broncos 21
The Chargers will drop another one in AFC play with LT
and company out of sync right now. The Broncos have
enough to win at home despite a few key injuries.
1:15 PM
Baltimore Ravens 19
San Francisco 49ers 16
The Ravens should be able to shut down the 49ers just
like Seattle did last week. Defense wins ball games and
Baltimore has the defense that can get it done on the
road.
5:15 PM
Chicago Bears 19
Green Bay Packers 22
Chicago drops one to their NFC North rival at Lambeau
Field. Looks like the QB situation doesn't even matter
as Griese threw 3 picks last week and will struggle
again this week.
October 8th
5:30 PM
Dallas Cowboys 27
Buffalo Bills 17
Buffalo got their first taste of victory last week but
will have little time to celebrate when Dallas' high
octane offense embarrasses them on their home field.
