Packers over Lions- I thought this had upset special written all over it- Packer defense banged up, Stafford coming off a career game. But he won't play, and I don't expect Daunte Culpepper to play like he did in 2004.
Cowboys over Raiders- Bruce Gradkowski struggles against teams who don't wear tiger stripes on their helmet.
Giants over Broncos- I don't trust Chris Simms, plus the Giant offense seemed to find some legs in their last game.
Falcons over Bucs- Atlanta's a great home team, and Tampa doesn't have a defense.
Cardinals over Titans- I think Tennessee's hot-streak stops- Arizona is becoming a complete team, passing, running, and a solid, timely defense.
Seahawks over Rams- Because somebody HAS to win. This game will be what Browns/Lions was expected to be- a dud, not the thriller it was.
Eagles over Redskins- Washington doesn't know what an end zone is; Philly does.
Panthers over Jets- Carolina's getting their running game back on track, and Delhomme for once will actually face a guy who is more of a INT machine than he is.
Vikings over Bears- Cutler is turning the ball over the way Favre used to.
Texans over Colts- Indy has had a lot of close calls; they're going to lose sooner rather than later, and the Texans are a desperate team.
Bengals over Browns- No excuses, Cincy, if you blow one on your turf.
Dolphins over Bills- Buffalo can't stop the run- some things never change.
Chargers over Chiefs- San Diego is getting on a roll; K.C. usually gets sliced by the Bolts.
Jaguars over 49ers- The Jags are the real deal; the 49ers may have been overrated earlier this season.
Steelers over Ravens- They need it more.
Patriots over Saints- I think Brady will fire more salvos than Brees. Bold prediction- this will be the highest-scoring MNF game EVER!
