Can anyone help me figure out how Oakland might win? Tennesee dominates TOP with their rush offense, and has good rush D as well. TOs could go against them.. I just wanna see the other side of this argument please. While I am at it, Miami has a depleted secondary and their best offensive weapon goes down midweek and the line barely shifts? Miami's defense is dead last in yards given up per pass..Dead last in yards rushing given up...The Giants pass rush is on a roll and the Dolphins traded Chris Chambers.. My thoughts just aren't balanced here, help requested.

DET @ CHI easy game of the week. Bears are pissed, Kitna's running for his life, and Tommie Harris guaranteed a Bears win...

I like Tenn much more as a dog or slight favorite. They laid 8.5 to the Falcons at home and couldnt cover it. I see more value in the Raiders +9 on some sites.

in for 200 cleve -3
and 100 on over 44.
nothing much else really interests me this wk.

I also have Cleveland -3 and Over 44. 1u each.

Yeah CLE over STL is looking very sweet right now, considering putting a few bills on this and I never really bet more than $10.

Can anyone explain why this line is here, Im from STL and I can tell you this season home field counts for nothing (but turf). Also the Rams are getting a average of ~11 points a game, with half of our good players out atm. I don't see the rams coming any closer than 10 points.

Edit* That over 44 is also looking good.

[johnnylovescandy]

It's because Cle has taken it up the ass in domes like forever now, and this is NFL. Of the few teams StL can beat at home, Cle is one of them. In fact, Cle can beat themselves while the Rams just watch and win.

How about PHI -1 ??? I don't think any Vikes QB passes to wide open receivers over the middle like Griese did last week. Eagles need this game and have experience to win it. McNabb may not look pretty this week, but he and Westbrook will make the crucial plays at right times...

Thanks for the info johnny, I had no idea they struggled in domes. I will still be riding this but not for as much.

am i the only one considering the rams in that game, maybe im over estimating what steven jackson can do, but i feel getting 3 at home vs cleveland might be good enough
