Tennessee Titans +3 @ New York Giants 1:00pm ( CBS )
Tennessee seems to be one-dimensional. If you can stop CJ, you can beat them. I think teams may learn from the Steelers D and have one player key on CJ. Giants have a great front 4, though exposed by Indi. I still think the Giants plan better and do not have to worry about a passing threat. Ill go Giants here.
Buffalo Bills +14 @ New England Patriots 1:00pm ( CBS )
New England's offense is just too much for the Bills. Bills, may show some life on offensive...but that is because the Pats defense is that bad. Still New England is more talented all around than the Bills. Pats win.
Cleveland Browns +10 1/2 @ Baltimore Ravens 1:00pm ( CBS )
Baltimore should win this easily. Although divisional match-ups you usually throw out the stats, but in this case most likely a back up QB for Cleveland and still not much showing on offense. And against the Ravens D, I can see the Browns being shut-out. Could be a 17-0 final.
Pittsburgh Steelers -2 1/2 @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers 1:00pm ( CBS )
Pittsburgh has played much better than expected. Its Defense is top notch and as long as they do not turn it over Tampa I do not think can sustain long drives. Take the Steelers here.
Cincinnati Bengals -3 @ Carolina Panthers 1:00pm ( CBS )
Carolina throws "The Jimmy" into the fray. His first start will not be a memorable one, more than likely one "The Jimmy" would rather forget. Cincinnati should have an explosive day on offense..I don't think Carolina can keep up.
Atlanta Falcons +3 1/2 @ New Orleans 1:00pm ( FOX )
Falcons play NO a lot. Usually close games. NO's offense has not looked as high powered as usual and now is missing a piece (Ill give you not the most important piece) and Atlanta has played great defense so far. New Orleans has been winning with Defense and turnovers, I do believe this week the turnovers will not come as often. I think NO actually wins by 3, but the line is 3 1/2 so Ill take the Falcons.
San Francisco 49ers -3 @ Kansas City Chiefs 1:00pm ( FOX )
Niners looked great in a loss, only if they can cut down on mental errors and turnovers. I think they travel out to KC and play like the team most expected them to be. A lot of credit to KC for starting 2-0, but I just can't believe in them yet.
Detroit Lions +11 @ Minnesota Vikings 1:00pm ( FOX )
Farve starting getting on track about week 3 last year. I don't think that is the case here, but at home I think Minny will stop the slide. Detroit to me is a good team, and will give it all they have. But in the end I think the Vikings win, just not by 11. Maybe 10. Ill go with the Lions here. Too many points for a team in Minnesota that have not proved a lot on offense to me yet, especially with a very good front 7 the Lions possess.
Dallas Cowboys +2 1/2 @ Houston Texans 1:00pm ( FOX )
Will Big D start 0-3? More than likely. Houston wants to shake that little brother moniker, and beating Dallas is a way to do it. Texans can win on the ground or in the air...Dallas still hasn't figured out who to run and when and Romo looks as if he is forcing a lot of throws. If Dallas can get their heads into the game and plan right...they can win. I just think Houston is running on all cylinders...and Dallas is missing that spark.
Washington Redskins -3 1/2 @ St. Louis Rams 4:05pm ( FOX )
I was so tempted to take St. Louis here, but the Redskins want to make up for the collapse from last week. I think McNabb plays another great game and this one becomes another shoot out. But in the end I think Washington remembers how to put a game away and the Rams lose another.
Philadelphia Eagles -3 @ Jacksonville Jaguars 4:05pm ( FOX )
Jacksonville just does not look that good right now. Perhaps they show up this week and remember to hand it to MJD. Vick will do well and show he should be starting right now, but against J'Ville most QB's should look good. Too much tough Philly and not enough Jacksonville.
Indianapolis Colts -5 1/2 @ Denver Broncos 4:15pm ( CBS )
Indi after its week 1 loss looks calmer, collected and precise. Got that loss out of the way...they can focus now. Denver played great last week, but that was Hasslebeck....this week its Manning. Enough said.
San Diego Chargers -5 1/2 @ Seattle Seahawks 4:15pm ( CBS )
San Diego should build off a great win last week, Seattle just doesn't have a solid ground game. Chargers should be able to move at will and as long as they can have a decent ground attack and Rivers doesn't implode...huge day for the Chargers offense.
Oakland Raiders +4 1/2 @ Arizona Cardinals 4:15pm ( CBS )
Arizona, Oakland. What to say. New QB for Oakland...Anderson for Arizona. Which Derek Anderson shows up this week. Either way this game will be close. The winner takes it by 3, so the spread doesn't matter I think. Arizona may win, but by a late FG. But an even chance I give Tha Raaaideeerrrsss pull one out here.
New York Jets +2 @ Miami Dolphins 8:20pm ( NBC )
This will be an UGLY game. Defense will reign and it will be which team makes the least amount of mistakes. I think the Jets somehow come out of this with a close win. I just do not trust Chad Henne yet.

Green Bay Packers -3 @ Chicago Bears 8:35pm ( ESPN )
Chicago has escaped from Detroit with a win, and looked good beating Dallas. Green Bay has looked good in both wins. The Packers I think right now are playing the best football all around in the NFL. Solid D, explosive offense. Look for Green Bay to find ways to have Matthews harass Culter all day. The Pack take this one.
