Brendan Reihs
.
Miami Dolphins
at Baltimore Ravens -3
Matt Moore didn’t look bad last week, and finished with a 105.6 passer rating in his last 4 game stint in the backup role. With the weapons on offense and a comfortable QB, look for Miami to get the upset.
Cleveland Browns
Minnesota Vikings -9.5
London means all rules are out the window in the world of football physics. I don’t only think the browns win against the spread, but win against the Vikings and get their first W.
New Orleans Saints
Chicago Bears +9
The Bears won’t be able to play catch-up in the dome without putting the ball in the air, which they won’t do with Trubisky. Trust Brees and the dome to win by double digits.
.
New York Jets
Atlanta Falcons -5.5
I know they didn’t show up to New England, but that is only going to make them hungrier. The Jets defense isn’t bad, but its not good enough to keep this game within a touchdown.
Pittsburgh Steelers
at Detroit Lions -3
The Steelers finally have a defense, and if they let the best running back in the league take the reigns, they have nothing to worry about.
Dallas Cowboys -2
at Washington Redskins
Dallas wins this game on the road and shows he is better than his draft class counterparts. I think he has a big and clean game, and leads the crew to victory.
Carolina Panthers
at Tampa Bay Buccaneers -2.5
Cam is sputtering and hasn’t been anywhere near what we thought he could be since the super bowl run. With sparks of excellence, I think he can’t light a flame against the Bucs.
San Francisco 49ers
at Philadelphia Eagles -12.5
The 49ers play games close, and a banged up philly team is going to need every ounce of Wentz magic. I think the fly passed the niners, but by a feather. Give me those points!
Houston Texans
at Seattle Seahawks -5.5
Seattle is starting to figure it out as usual, the slow start withers away again this week, and the seahawks win big against a rookie qb. Shoutout to the 12th man!
Oakland Raiders
at Buffalo Bills -2.5
Lynch doesn’t get to return to Buffalo, but the raiders still roll through western New York. Buffalo keeps it close, but the Raiders take it.
Indianapolis Colts
at Cincinnati Bengals -10.5
Indy proves last week was a fluke, and loses, but in a, somewhat less embarrassing fashion.
Los Angeles Chargers
at New England Patriots -7
Rivers and the offense have been clicking and so has the chargers pass rush. Look for tom Brady to be on his back a lot, and hurried for the majority of the game. I think LA can win this, so I’ll definitely take the touchdown.
Denver Broncos
Kansas City Chiefs -7
This Denver defense isn’t going to allow those big plays against the chiefs offense like other teams do. I think their offense bounces back and they win this game, to shake up things even more in a rocky AFC west.
