Bengals +2
I will take the more talented team here. I believe the bengals win the division again and this is the 1st step in asserting their dominance in the division.
ray rice situation may have unfocused the ravens a bit.
The fact that the ravens only favored by 2 tells me that Vegas also thinks bengals are the better team.
Ravens beat bengals at home last yr by 3 in overtime and got smoked on the road.

I agree bro, makes absolutely no sense that the Ravens are only favored by 2.......

The Ravens should be -3.5 or -4 since they are 22-4 SU past 26 home games & since the line is so low, the oddsmakers know the Bengals can win......lots of Ravens money will be pouring in......line opened at -2.5 & got bet down......&I don't see it going to 3 at all.

rams -2.5
i'll take the home team here. i have no reason to believe cassel wont be responsible for a sack/fumble and/or an int. rams d is great, and they play in the toughest division in football. losing bradford is no big deal as far as i'm concerned. i think he blows loads.

dolphins +3.5

mad at myself for not taking this when it was +5 but whatever.

pats have started slow the last couple of yrs. belichek is not a great talent evaluator as far as i'm concerned, who have they drafted lately that is a difference maker? gronk? he doesnt play, hernandez, he doesnt play... mayo? he doesnt play. this team keeps winning the division by default. the gap in this division starts closing this yr. dolphins are more used to the humidity of miami in sept. tannehill gets no press but i think he is a decent qb and getting better each yr. this is the start of his 3rd yr and i think he keeps improving. dolphins competitive last yr even though they were in dissaray with the incognito thing. think dolphins win but if not they keep it close.

i want to pick atl badly but i wont. i watched hardknocks and mike smith is just too much of a weenie. i will find it hard to bet on his team based on what i saw. he tells his team to keep their cool, then hawley gets in a fight and tossed out of the joint practice with the titans and the next day in the meeting tells the team hawley did the right thing?? ok guy. it would help youre younger players to not send mixed messages. what do you know, a couple weeks later #45 gets tossed from a game and then gets cut. LOL what a weenie!

texans -3
rg iii fails for good this yr. gruden is in over his head. texans very talented team, just no qb. fitzpatrick is serviceable, he just cant handle having to bring his team from behind, he will always throw the back breaking INT after driving his team down the field. problem for the redskins is they won't be ahead to where fitz has to do that. texans have great defensive talent and bill obrien has shown he is a good coach when he took over a decimated and demoralized penn st team and made something out of them. fans will be calling for kirk cousins after this game.

halftime play:
giants +0.5

lions are the same old lions which means they cant put two halves together. giants playing horribly on offense and they can only get better with some halftime adjustments. suh hasnt had a crucial 15 yd penalty yet, so there's that. 1 lions td came off of a broken play that should have been a sack. giants can win this game, but if not, they will keep it close at least.
