St. Louis Rams at Washington RedskinsFan picks
27The Rams come into this one with new coach Jim Haslett, and Marc Bulger back under center. The Redskins are back home after two huge road victories inside the division. That could mean a letdown. With the Rams playing harder for their new coach, I see a closer score than expected. 99%

Carolina Panthers at Tampa Bay BuccaneersFan picks
23The Panthers are playing at a high level and the Bucs have quarterback issues. They really have passing issues. That will play right into the hands of the Carolina defense. This will be a physical game, but I'll go with the better quarterback and that's Jake Delhomme. 62%

Cincinnati Bengals at NY JetsFan picks
31The Bengals showed a lot of fight coming back from 17 down last week. But facing a team coming off a bye when you're on the road for the second consecutive week is tough going. It's too much to overcome and the Jets will win a shootout. 93%

Oakland Raiders at New Orleans SaintsFan picks
33The Saints are coming off a Monday night game, while the Raiders are coming off a bye. Edge Oakland. But the Saints are the better team. Changing coaches to Tom Cable won't help Oakland. JaMarcus Russell flops in his return to Louisiana. 98%

Detroit Lions at Minnesota VikingsFan picks
27The Vikings are coming off a short week, having played Monday. That's the only edge the Lions have. They're horrible. Look for Adrian Peterson to run wild. The Vikings take it easily. 99%

Baltimore Ravens at Indianapolis ColtsFan picks
27The Colts haven't won in their new stadium yet. They will here. The Ravens played a physical war with the Titans last week, and that can wear on a team. The Colts have had success against the Ravens defense in the past, and they will here, too. Peyton Manning has a good game down the field. 84%

Miami Dolphins at Houston TexansFan picks
24The Dolphins have won two big games, while the Texans are winless. So why do I like the Texans? That tough loss last week will help keep them focused here. Matt Schaub returns. That's great news after what Sage Rosenfels did last week. They take it. 50%

Chicago Bears at Atlanta FalconsFan picks
27This is a battle between two teams on the upswing. The winner here can stake a claim to being legitimate. The Bears have opened things up with Kyle Orton, which is a good thing, but this the second of back-to-back road games. That's tough going. The Falcons take it in an upset. 30%

Jacksonville Jaguars at Denver BroncosFan picks
30This is the spot where everybody counts out the Jaguars. Don't. They relish this type of role. Look what they did a few weeks back when they went to Indianapolis and upset the Colts. Denver can score, and the Jaguars have some defensive issues, but Jacksonville will win a high-scoring game. 25%

Green Bay Packers at Seattle SeahawksFan picks
30Both these teams need a victory in the worst way. Both have been disappointing. And both have had a ton of injuries. So who gets it? The feeling here is that the Packers are a little better off right now. So even though they are making the trip, I'll take Aaron Rodgers over Matt Hasselbeck, who is hurting. 71%

Philadelphia Eagles at San Francisco 49ersFan picks
28This is a long trip for an Eagles team that didn't play well last week. And Brian Westbrook is hurting. The 49ers have to be better on defense than they were last week against the Patriots. They will be. The Eagles have issues, and the long trip gets them. 10%

Dallas Cowboys at Arizona CardinalsFan picks
31This is a huge game for the Cardinals, who can show they've gone to a higher level with a victory. Dallas hasn't played that well the past couple of weeks, which might give the Cardinals a chance. I smell an upset. Kurt Warner lights up a bad Dallas secondary to win a shootout. 14%

New England Patriots at San Diego ChargersFan picks
26The Chargers have to get this one for a chance to win the division, They have road games with Buffalo and then New Orleans (London) after this. They can't go 2-4. The Patriots stayed on the West Coast after beating San Francisco, so the trip isn't bad. Even so, look for San Diego to right things here. 71%

NY Giants at Cleveland BrownsFan picks
27The Giants are riding high as the best team in the league right now. And they get Plaxico Burress back. Cleveland is coming off a bye week. It will be interesting of that helped Derek Anderson regain his mojo. It doesn't. Giants big. 96%
