We are 114-107-3 against the spread and 146-78 straight up for the season.
Tennessee (-3) over San Diego - What a wild ride it has been for the Titans. They’re finally back to .500 and need this game just to stay alive for a wild card berth. The Chargers meanwhile have pretty much settled in at the number two seed and won’t be too motivated on the road. Titans 27-20
Green Bay (-14) over Seattle - The Seahawks either don’t care or have given up. Going to Green Bay against a strong Packers defense has the ingredients of a blowout. Packers 30-6
Kansas City (+13.5) over Cincinnati - The Bengals are clearly the better team in this matchup and they look to right the ship after two straight loses. They don’t really blow anyone out so look for the lowly Chiefs to cover. Bengals 24-13
Buffalo (+9) over Atlanta – The Bills have been playing better and the Falcons won a game they should have lost. Ryan is still hurt and the Bills are running out of healthy QBs. Falcons 21-17
Miami (-3) over Houston - This battle of two .500 teams will go to the tougher team. The Texans are just too soft. Dolphins 27-21
New York Giants (-7) over Carolina - The Giants may just be showing up on time to save their season. The Panthers have lost their last three road games by an average of over ten points. Giants 34-17
Tampa Bay (+14) over New Orleans - The Saints don’t have much to play for and will probably win this game but not care enough to blow out the Bucs. Saints 30-21
Jacksonville (+8) over New England - The Pats are probably the better team in this contest but not by eight points. Expect a close game with the home team pulling one out late. Patriots 24-21
Baltimore (+3) over Pittsburgh - It would have been a really close game but Polamalu is out so that really tips this game in favor of the Ravens. Ravens 24-20
Philadelphia (-7) over Denver – The Eagles have won five straight and the Broncos have struggled on the road. Eagles 27-17
St. Louis (+14.5) over Arizona – The Rams still aren’t winning but have been playing better lately. The Cards are just looking to stay healthy for the playoffs. Cardinals 24-13
Detroit (+12.5) over San Francisco – Both teams don’t have anything to play for so I’ll go with the home team here. 49ers 20-10
Indianapolis (-5.5) over New York Jets – The Jets are probably the last threat to Manning’s perfect season. They’ve play some close ones lately but this one won’t be one of them. Colts 28-13
Washington (+6.5) over Dallas – Expect another close game here not unlike their first meeting. Redskins 17-13
Minnesota (-7) over Chicago - Look for Favre to right the ship here and throw at least three TDs. Vikings 38-17

We are 104-102-2 against the spread and 137-71 straight up for the season.
Indianapolis (-3) over Jacksonville – The Jaguars usually put up a good fight against the Colts but fall short. Look for another close game but the Jags won’t prevent Manning from moving closer to a perfect season. Colts 21-17
New Orleans (-7.5) over Dallas – The Saints have been winning all season but their last two games have been close but unlike those games this one is at home. Brees will pull another one out here in the fourth quarter. Saints 28-20
Green Bay (+1.5) over Pittsburgh – The Packers are playing as well as anyone right now and the Steelers season is just about over. They couldn’t stop the Browns so what chance will they have against Rodgers? Packers 27-23
Miami (+5) over Tennessee – The Dolphins primary weapon, Williams, will have a tough time against the Titans solid run defense. Miami on paper should lose this game but like the Titans they’ve been very resilient are Read More»

Start’em
Tony Romo, QB, DAL – The Saints have allowed two 300 yard passers in their last two games. They’ll likely trail and Romo will probably be putting up the ball a lot to keep up with Brees.
Laurence Maroney, RB, NE – He’s been playing his best ball in years and the Bills porous run defense along with potential winter weather should lead to another productive day.
Fred Jackson, RB, BUF – He should follow up last week 20 carry 99 yard day with another good outing at home. The Bills will keep it on the ground and hope to keep Brady at bay.
Knowshon Moreno, RB, DEN – He’s the only man in the backfield with Buckhalter hobbled once again. Nice match up against the Raiders as well.
Jamaal Charles, RB, KC – Coming off a great game against a weak run defense he gets another easy one against the Browns.
Braylon Edwards, WR, NYJ – The Falcons have been generous to opposing WRs and Edwards should haul in a couple of long passes.
Sit’em
Roddy White, WR, ATL – The Jets Revis will be all over White. He may be the league’s premier shut down corner now.
Matt Forte, RB, CHI – Tough match up against the stellar Ravens run defense.
Ryan Grant, RB, GB – Much tougher match up this week against a solid Steelers run defense.
Jonathan Stewart, RB, CAR – The Panthers will probably be playing from behind limiting his chances.

We are 98-93-1 against the spread and 125-67 straight up for the season.
Pittsburgh (-10) over Cleveland – The Browns kept it close the first time but the Steelers need to run the table and won’t take any foe lightly. Steelers 30-13
Denver (+7) over Indianapolis – The Broncos are the last hurdle between Manning and a perfect season. They’ll win but it’ll be a close one. Colts 21-17
Cincinnati (+6.5) over Minnesota – This game means a lot more for the Bengals trying to be the number two seed in the AFC than it does for the Vikings who can’t really catch the Saints. Bengals 24-20
New York Jets (-3) over Tampa Bay – The last easy game for the Jets so they need to win this one if they hope to still make the playoffs. Jets 17-13
Buffalo (-1) over Kansas City – The Chiefs have been blown out their last two games and the Bills are playing better under their new coach. Bills 27-14
Green Bay (-3) over Chicago – The Packers are on a roll and should be able to repeat an earlier win over the Bears. Packers 27-17
New Orleans (-10.5) over Atlanta – Injuries and a weak secondary will keep the Falcons from even keeping this one close. Saints 35-17
Detroit (+13.5) over Baltimore – The Ravens have been a .500 team in their last six games and for the season. They’ll win but won’t run away. Ravens 28-17

New England (-13) over Carolina – The Pats have lost two straight but will stop the bleeding at home. Patriots 35-13
Houston (-6.5) over Seattle – The Seahawks are terrible on the road and have nothing to really play for. Texans 28-14
St. Louis (+13) over Tennessee – The Titans have a lot less to play for than last week and the Rams have been playing better lately. Titans 21-17
Washington (-1) over Oakland – The Skins have lost three straight but all three opponents are playoff caliber teams. Redskins 24-10
San Diego (-3) over Dallas – The Chargers have won seven straight and should handle the Cowboys inconsistent offense. Chargers 30-24
New York Giants (-1) over Philadelphia – The Giants need this game a lot more than the Eagles. Giants 24-21
San Francisco (+3.5) over Arizona – The Niners return to Monday night after a long absence in a game that matters more to them to a Cards team well in control of their division. 49ers 24-21
By masterballer
Start’em

By masterballer

Cincinnati (-13) over Detroit – The Lions have made it a habit of getting blown out on the road. Bengals 34-10
Carolina (-5) over Tampa Bay – The Panthers should be able to rack up the yards on the ground and keep this game out of reach. Panthers 27-14
Chicago (-9) over St. Louis – The Rams have been playing better but are bad. The Bears have at least beaten up on bad teams this year. Bears 35-17
San Diego (-13.5) over Cleveland – The Chargers have been on a sneaky six game win streak blowing out their last two opponents. Chargers 38-13
San Francisco (Pick) over Seattle - The Niners still have an outside shot at the playoffs and are desperate to at least get back to .500. 49ers 20-17
Minnesota (-3) over Arizona – The Vikings are a bad matchup for any team that has a QB that can’t get hit too often. Vikings 28-20

By masterballer
Start’em
Thomas Jones, RB, NYJ – He should have another good outing against a generous Buffalo defense.
Jeremy Maclin, WR, PHI – Jackson will likely be out which means Maclin becomes the top dog.
LeSean McCoy, RB, PHI – The Falcons are vulnerable against the run and this will be a high scoring game.
Matt Forte, RB, CHI – The Rams allow 4.8 YPC.
Greg Olsen, TE, CHI – Easy match up against the Rams and he has become Cutler’s go to guy.
Chad Ochocinco, WR, CIN – The Lions allow 281 passing yards per game.

Sit’em

Kevin Smith, RB, CIN – The Bengals are tough to run on and the Lions will be trailing early.
Chris Chambers, WR, KC – He’s had a good run but the Denver will be able to get heat on Cassel.
Santonio Holmes, WR, PIT – Will see too much of the league’s top corner.
Beanie Wells, RB, ARI – Pass protection will be key against a rush happy Vikings team. Hightower happens to be better in this area.
