Sunday 1:00 Rams @ Carolina(-7) I like the Rams to keep it close. Patriots @ Green Bay(+5.5) The Pats will cover. I agree they'll break out of their funk. Falcons @ Baltimore(-4) The Falcons are pretty confusing. They have a lot of injuries on defense, but their problem is the offense. Vick maybe isn't the greatest passer, but the receivers (and Crumpler) have dropped a whole lot of balls this year. It's dumb to pick for the Falcons in this game, so I guess I won't. Raiders @ Kansas City(-9.5) The Raiders have played a few good games and now it's time for them to realize all the effort isn't really getting them anywhere. Chiefs. Bills @ Houston(-2.5) At Houston? Oh jeez, the Bills played well last week. I'll take the points. Vikings @ Miami(-3.5) I don't trust either of these teams. I think I'll take Miami at home. It's about time for them to improve at the end of the season. Bengals @ New Orleans(-3.5) Cincinnati is too good to keep dropping games. I'll take the points. Bears @ New Jersey Jets(+7) The Bears won't have a problem with the Jets. Titans @ Philly(-13) Every time I pick against the Titans, they play very well. Every time I pick them, they stink it up. My inclination is to take them because they've kept it close lately, so I guess I'll pick against them. I'll give the big points. Steelers @ Cleveland(+3.5) I think the Steelers are doing better now. I'll give the points. Redskins @ Tampa Bay(-3) The Redskins benched Brunell so I guess some rookie is in there, or at least someone they thought was worse than Brunell, so I'll take the Bucs. Sunday, ~4:10 Lions @ Arizona(-2) Arizona favored, eh? I'll take the Lions on the road. Seahawks @ San Francisco(+4.5) I still don't get how San Fran blew out the Vikings the other day. I'll take the Seahawks. Colts @ Dallas(+1) Gotta pick the Colts until they lose. Sunday NBC Chargers @ Denver(-2.5) Denver favored? I really like the Chargers here. LT is having an MVP year. MNF Giants @ Jacksonville(-3.5) Yeah, what's the deal with Jax and Houston? Some sort of matchup problem? This game is a big deal for Jax, I think they'll win it. I wish it was only 3, but whatever. Give the points. I gotta go quick!

They played fairly well but gave up too many points. Especially on some weak-stick trickeration plays. OSU is too scared to play you guys straight up! And sorry about losing Bo, too. Pretty bad couple of days. I laughed when Rutgers lost to Cincinnati. Yeah, really sorry about the game. They played fairly well but gave up too many points.
