October 7th
10:00 AM
Carolina Panthers 20
New Orleans Saints 23
The oddsmakers believe the Saints will finally pick up a win following their bye week. New Orleans has had two weeks of practice to get things figured out. Will it pay off this weekend?
10:00 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars 19
Kansas City Chiefs 17
The oddsmakers still don’t believe in the Chiefs despite their wins over San Diego and Minnesota in consecutive weeks. They obviously feel Jacksonville is the better team despite this game being played at Arrowhead Stadium.
10:00 AM
Detroit Lions 21
Washington Redskins 25
The oddsmakers believe in the Redskins’ defense to keep the Lions in check. Few teams have been able to slow down their quick-hit offense but with Washington’s secondary, they are a team that can get it done.
10:00 AM
Atlanta Falcons 16
Tennessee Titans 24
The oddsmakers really believe in the Tennessee Titans after their huge win over the New Orleans Saints on ESPN’s Monday Night Football their last time out. They don’t believe in Joey Harrington to get it done on the road.
10:00 AM
Miami Dolphins 19
Houston Texans 24
The oddsmakers have the Dolphins dropping their fifth straight game to a much-improved Houston Texans squad.
10:00 AM
Seattle Seahawks 17
Pittsburgh Steelers 23
This rematch of the 2005-2006 Super Bowl has the Steelers coming out on top again.
10:00 AM
Cleveland Browns 16
New England Patriots 32
New England puts another beating on their opponent. Can Cleveland play well enough to stay within this huge spread?
10:00 AM
Arizona Cardinals 22
St. Louis Rams 19
The Rams are without Marc Bulger and without a win. The oddsmakers have the Cardinals picking up their first road win of the season after beating Pittsburgh at home last week.
10:00 AM
New York Jets 19
New York Giants 22
The oddsmakers are giving the Giants the edge in this game after their brilliant defensive performance against Donnovan McNabb’s Eagles last week.
1:05 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers 18
Indianapolis Colts 27
The oddsmakers have the Colts as nearly a double-digit favorite at home with good reason. The Bucs have surprised some teams this season though.
1:15 PM
San Diego Chargers 20
Denver Broncos 21
This game is basically a pick ‘em in the oddsmakers eyes. This is just like making a pick in your office pool, except millions of dollars are riding on this game. Not much of a difference though huh?
1:15 PM
Baltimore Ravens 19
San Francisco 49ers 16
The oddsmakers have the Ravens bouncing back after a terrible outing against Cleveland last week.
5:15 PM
Chicago Bears 19
Green Bay Packers 22
The oddsmakers have bought into the Packers being undefeated. Chicago hasn’t looked well at all offensively, thus tiring their defense tremendously to this point.
October 8th
5:30 PM
Dallas Cowboys 27
Buffalo Bills 17
The oddsmakers are putting a lot of stock into the deadly passing attack of Tony Romo, T.O. and company here despite being on the road.
