crappier.Tennessee.GC: Last week the Titans looked more like their 2008 selves. The Bills are coming off a bye week but have to visit the rejuvenated Titans. Card so often, I'm looking for a Falcons win, even if Julius Peppers gets two tackles.CB: Carolina Pussycats are a joke.Atlanta isn’t.Atlanta.GC: The Panthers just don’t have enough weapons to slow the Falcons down.Jacksonville NY Jets TR: This one almost qualifies as yet another snoozefest, but the Jets are a cut above the Jags. As a Patriots fan, I would be happy to be wrong, but the Jets have the upper hand here and will get the win.CB: Goooooo Jacksonville…But Jets will win.GC: Here are two 4–4 teams, which means someone is going to get back on the winning side of .500. The Jets will be happy for the home field advantage in this win.Kansas City Oakland TR: Do I have to pick one Okay. KC is in such disarray; I can't see them winning again this year. 
Well, maybe one, but not in front of that insane Oakland crowd.CB: This used to a marquee matchup back in the day.Now it’s just a couple of lousy teams nobody wants to watch.What a shame.Oakland.GC: The Raiders get a rare win this yawner.Philadelphia San Diego TR: Rivers has the Bolts on a roll, plain and simple. Vincent Jackson has been amazing, and I never count Sproles out of any play.They continue to win games they should lose, while the Eagles have begun to look a little punch-drunk. San Diego will make the home crowd happy.CB: Two mediocre teams, but Philadelphia is on the road.Even if Brian Westbrook plays it won’t be at 100 percent.San Diego.GC: The Chargers are on a winning streak while the Eagles lost in a big way in their last game.In this game it’s going to be about the QB who has the biggest arm. Can Aaron Rodgers and his gang get it together, even at LambeauSad to say, I don't think so. The Cowboys pick up another win by sheer force of momentum.CB: Green Bay looked like crap last week, and Dallas looks like they are on a roll, well, kind of. I’ll go with Dallas.GC: The Cowboys have ratcheted up their game and look to be contenders but I try to never pick against the Packers at home.This will be a Green Bay win.Seattle Arizona TR: As you might remember, I don't think highly of either of these teams, but Arizona has surprised me a couple of times, and the Seahawks have not.This doesn't shape up to be an electrifying event by any means, and I have to give the Cards some props, even if they are at home.As soon as my roulette wheel stops spinning, I can give you...22, black. That means Arizona wins.CB: Seahawks have too many injuries.Arizona.GC: How is it that the Cardinals have a better record on the road than at home They’ll start fixing that stat this week with a win over the Seahawks.New England Indianapolis TR: I don't think there is anything I can write that hasn't already been written about 17,000 times in the past few days.The numbers are all there, and the rivalry is well known.For me, the edge goes to the Patriots and not just because I am incredibly biased, either.

The Patriots have a secret weapon, and only Bill Belichick knows what it is. Yes, I expect our head coach, a man who is loved and respected throughout the NFL and in London, to pull a game plan out of his ragged sleeve that will set Manning et al. back oh, five or six years.We all know that the Colts have barely been tested, so I won't even go there. Big surprise here: I predict that Indianapolis gets tested in this game and fails, just a little.Big-time Game of the Week, Colts no longer undefeated as it becomes clear that Belichick IS the secret weapon.CB: Two great teams, I hate the Colts, but they are likely to win against a young and not-quite-there defense.Can I puke nowColts.GC: If you don't watch any other game, watch this one.The Colts are undefeated and are playing at home with the current No 1 ranked defense and sixth ranked offense. The flip side is the Patriots have a second ranked defense and third ranked offense.The differences in the offensive rankings between these two are pretty slim. You know Manning is going to test the rookies on the Patriots defense all night long.
