Oakland goes to Miami. Spread, Miami -4. Remember Bob Griese and Kenny Stabler? Well, nothing about this game will evoke any ghosts of competent quarterbacks past. This is a toughie… it’s like a fight between Michael Jackson and Paris Hilton… what the heck, Paris... er, I mean Raiders to upset.
Houston goes to Atlanta as a three-point favorite. Atlanta will continue to burn as the Texans (how in the heck did they come up with that name) will cover.
Baltimore in Cleveland. Ravens favored buy 4.5. Now here’s a kooky situation; a team going to a town they used to play in to play a team named after the team they used to be… The team who’s name was inspired by an Edgar Allen Poe poem should cover.
Chicago will go to Detroit favored by 3. Bob Griese’s son will prove no better than Interception-a-saurus Rex as the “Super Bowl Shuffle” become the “Windy City Death-spiral.” Detroit to upset.
Green Bay goes to Minnesota favored by a mere point-and-a-half (1.5) Sore-ee, Vikings fans, but even a Lutheran would bet on the Packers to cover. Lock City, doncha know!
Dallas host the Rams in what should be the kind of massacre that will have the folks ‘round the Gateway to the West muttering “Yeah, but remember last year’s World Series?!?!” Cowboys to cover the 13 points they’re giving.
NY Jets are a 3.5 point favorite while visiting the Bills. It is quite possible that the brightest story for Buffalo this season will be Kevin Everett’s recovery. Jets will cover.
Tampa Bay goes into Carolina as a three point underdog. After a big toke on the crack pipe, I’m gonna say Tampa to upset!
Seattle goes to San Francisco as a two point favorite. My team is the ‘Hawks, so I’m gonna pick ‘em. (But if you want to make any money, bet on the ‘Niners.)
Though Pittsburgh will not cover the 6 points they’re giving the Cards, forty-somethings will have reason to wave their Terrible Towels in glee as the Steelers win.
Chargers are a twelve point favorite at home against Kansas City. When I think about this game, I have a vision of LT dancing around in front of the Chief bench, pointing at his butt and then pointing at the Chiefs and then doing air kisses… he’s such a class act. In my vision the wheels will stay on the bandwagon for at least one more week and SD will cover.
Indy is a 9.5 point favorite against Denver in the RCA Dome. Multiply that number by two and you’ll get what will be the actual margin of victory of the Colts over the Broncs.
Maybe it’s the mushroom tea talkin’ but I still like Donovan McNaab… is he black? This game will be decided in the last seconds by a 58 yard field goal. Eagles will win, cover.
New England will win at Cincinnati but not cover the 7.5 spread. After the game the two quarterbacks will share a hug which will seem to linger a bit too long. I’m just sayin…
