Looking at this week’s lines, there’s some slim-pickens in terms of value. However, because we’ve decided on picking 5 games per week, here goes:
1. Dallas +3 at Philadelphia - I’d like it much more if it was +3.5, but I think Dallas is an underrated team that can pull this one out in Philly. Eagles have never lost with Andy Reid coming out of their bye, but I think this is the week.
2. Cincinatti vs. Seattle Under 37.5 - A couple anemic offenses here with good defenses. Benson is out and the Seahawks have a very stout run defense, could be a low one.
3. Detroit -2.5 at Denver - Tough to go against the Tebows here, but the Lions’ front 7 should give Denver plenty of problems. Tebow could be in for a worse statistical passing game than last week (that’s possible???).
4. Carolina - 3 vs. Minnesota - Carolina is an amazing 5-1-1 ATS this year, and I look for the success to continue against a beaten up Minnesota defense.
5. New Orleans -13.5 at St. Louis - 2 TD favorites on the road against a lowly Rams team without Sam Bradford. Normally I wouldn’t like to lay this many points, but I have 2 letters and a word for you: A.J. Feeley.

Kyle's Picks:
1.) San Diego -3 at Kansas City: Yes I know, division rival at a tough stadium to play at. But that doesn’t mean anything when Jackie Battle(who?) and Matt Cassel are your offensive stars. SD big.
2.) Jacksonville +9.5 at Houston. I think 9.5 is a lot of points here. Jacksonville’s D has been playing better and will keep them in the game, and MJD control the clock and make this a close one.
3.) Cleveland + 9 at San Fran. Another one where the spread seems to be a little too high. Cleveland is a scrappy team and might even scratch one out on the road here against an overrated Niners team.
4.) Seattle +2 against Cincinatti. Cedric Benson is out and Tavaris Jackson will likely be back. With Seattle’s D and their home crowd against a mediocre at best offense, look for Seattle to come out on top.
5.) New York Giants -10 against Miami. With Miami in turmoil and the Giants at home looking to get to the top of the NFC East, look for the Giants to put a thumping on this Dolphins defense and pressure Matt Moore into some poor decisions.
