Thanks to E.C. Laloosh for providing the template

You don't need to provide credits, doc. Thanks though.

I am going to go with Buffalo and Cleveland this week. I was tempted to pick Miami and Atlanta but I think Cincinnati and Carolina have hit their stride. If Carolina can dominate ATL, I'm looking forward to how the wildcard race shakes out despite their tough 2nd half schedule.

I too think Buffalo hands KC their first loss of the season.

That's just offensive that the Skins are favored on the road in San Diego. So, that game. Also, I think Cleveland, Miami and St Louis could put up a good fight.

Orlando, FL...for good.
I'd like to take this opportunity to point out again that Vegas betting lines have nothing to do with who they think will win, it has everything to do with making betting as even as possible between both teams so regardless of what happens, Vegas can't lose.

For some reason, a lot of betting action has been happening on the Redskins for this game, so they're having to entice people to bet on the Chargers by making them an underdog even though they are likely to be the winner.

It's not as crazy as it sounds. San Diego traditionally doesn't play on the road very well and especially not for an east coast start. San Diego has many of the same problems Seattle traditionally has in this regard.

Doc, you should add an extra column to show who is favored, just a suggestion.

Picking Buff. to win.

You mean the point spread? The two columns have headings that say Favorite and Underdog.

Washington has been playing pretty well the last few weeks. They had a good half last week then got crushed. There are reasons why they would be favored

With that I am pretty sure SD is coming off a bye week and that helps.

I am picking St Louis to lose - definately. I like TN with Locker back for a second week and the fact that they have a stingy defense.

Dallas will put up to many points to lose again. They were embarresed last week and will make up for it.

Wonder if Snyder is reconsidering that firing of his DC considering how the Saints are doing......

Not only that, but the Rams played WAY above their heads when they played us on Monday Night. I fully expect a let down.

The 49ers...I pick them to lose every week, it doesn't even matter if they are not playing. ;)
