I think Chargers, Rams with a long-shot Texans win. If I was more ambitious I would have put the pt spread in the above table.

Why the hell are the Redskins favored? They're terrible. SD is at least decent.

I'm with Vpk. How in the hell are the Chargers underdogs in any shape? I'd be outraged, if I were a Chargers fan.

Philly, San Diego, St. Louis, and Miami. Those are my upset picks.

Vikings over Cowgirls
Chargers over Redskins
Cleveland over Baltimore

This week isn't a great one for upsets IMO, I almost went with Atlanta over Carolina, but then common sense kicked in. I don't see Atlanta doing well at all this year.

I've got one that a lot of Vegas Insiders are going with:

Texans over the Colts

The Colts are flying fat, dumb, and happy right now with their big win over Denver followed by the bye. Everyone has been telling them how wonderful they are, and they played the game of the season that game (and against us). By contrast Case Keenum is a very decent QB that no one has tape on (very dangerous...just ask the Chiefs) and the Texans are hungry, coming off their bye from a loss and feeling the sting of a losing string and they are desperate.....and playing at home.

I predict the Texans are going to play the game of their season this coming Sunday.

I very nearly picked them too, Polaris, but I can't do it. I'd love to see the Texans knock off the Colts, but I just don't see it happening. I hope I'm wrong.

They have no shot at home,

Yeah, I was looking at that wrong and thought Dallas was on the road. Kinda doubt Dallas loses at home but I do think that is a team ripe for an upset. They just aren't very good.

I wouldn't bet against Miami. If Tannehill could hold on to the damn ball, the Fins would probably be at 5-2.

Surprised Washington is favored over the Chargers really, they should be a slight favorite maybe.

Jets could cause problems pass rushing Brees but if Andy Dalton can tear them up I'd favor Brees against them.

I guess I'd pick the Chargers out of that list as the most likely "upset".

I think the Jets have a moderate chance against Nawrlens.


I dont see Rams having a chance this week. I think they left it all on the field monday night and still failed.

I think Indy gets shown up as an "also ran" this week. They're due to stumble back to earth.
