Texans (+5) over BENGALS
I think that the Bengals pull out a victory here thanks to the renaissance of Cedric Benson and Carson Palmer. This Cincinnati team believes in itself in tight games, the Texans simply don’t. And I think this game will come down to wire. Bengals win but don’t cover the spread.
PACKERS (-13.5) over Lions
This is a statement game for the Packers. This team is coming off of the bye week, something this team needed desperately after playing subpar just about everywhere. I see the Pack jumping out big early and not looking back.
Panthers (-3.5) over BUCCANEERS
This seems like a horrible matchup for the Buccaneers. As a defense, they are 28th against the run, allowing over 150 yards rushing a game. On Sunday, they face one of the best tandems in the league in DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart. Though neither back has performed to 2008 standards, this seems like the perfect time for both Williams and Stewart to find their stride. I can’t see this game being close.
JAGS (-9.5) over Rams
How many times has a team been beaten 41-0 and then been 10 point favorites the next game? It may be unbelievable but it would be difficult to set this line too high. Look for Maurice Jones Drew and the Jaguars to have a huge rebound game against the lowly Rams.
STEELERS (-14) over Browns
Two words: Troy Polamalu. And: Steelers roll.
