Week #7 and its still anybody's game

Week 7
Steelers -3 @ Dolphins
Good game here.  Steelers are competing to be one of the best teams in the NFL while the Dolphins are competing to stay in the hunt for the AFC East crown.  The Steelers defense is just too good here for the Dolphins to overcome.
Bengals @ Falcons -3.5
I have no idea what happened to the Bengals.  They were a team that was supposed to be atop the AFC North with the Steelers and Ravens.  Instead they seem to have fallen into their old Bengal ways of under-achieving.  Look for the Falcons to bounce back this week after a miserable lose to the Eagles last week.
Rams @ Buccaneers -2.5
Who would have thought the Rams are in contention in their division?  Granted it is the very weak NFC West but still.  After only winning two games last year, they are steadily competing and improving every week.  The Bucs are in flux and they really are a tricky team to predict.  I like the Rams here.
49ers -3 @ Panthers
Teams have a combined 1 win.  Let’s see who will come out of this slugfest.  Oh wait, no one will really care.  The Panthers are digressing and going back to Matt Moore, who is not the future of the franchise, and the 49ers are trying to piece together a second straight win.  Look for the Niners this week in a strugggle at the bottom of the barrell.
Redskins @ Bears -3
The Bears at times play some real good football.  Then other times they look like they looked last year.  The Redskins started hot this year but have cooled off and so has Donovan.  The Bears are home and its starting to get cold out.  Look for Chi-town to erupt for them this week.
Browns @ Saints -13.5
The Browns running game led by Peyton Hillis is one of the tops in the league.  I think the Saints will win but they won’t cover as the Browns can put some points up on the board.
Bills @ Ravens -13
The Bills are still garbage, even in week 7, however have gotten stronger each week since Fitzpatrick became the QB.  Their coming off a buy week but I don’t think it will help much.  Look for the Ravens to absolutely crush them here.

Eagles @ Titans -3
The just seem to get better and better every week, but so do the Titans.  CJ had another monster week last week, but that was against the Jaguars.  The loss of Desean Jackson will hinder the Eagles but not to the point that it will affect their game plan as much as Maclin will fill in just fine.
Jaguars @ Chiefs -9
The Chiefs are atop the AFC West, but only by a game.  This may be the week that they pull away from the pack.  The Jaguars don’t have a QB yet as the only two on the depth chart were injured last week.  This is a big spread for the Chiefs but I think they’ll get this one this week.
Cardinals @ Seahawks -6
The Seahawks might finally be on a roll and found a grove.  They played well last week as Mike Williams had a career best day.  Max Hall, the undrafted Mormon from BYU, leads the Cardinals this week and for the most part probably the rest of the year if he keeps it up.  The Seahawks are home and have one of the best crowds in the league.  I got them here.
Raiders @ Broncos -8
This is the first meeting between these two division rivals this year so far.  The Broncos have had injuries all year and are slowly falling in the division, however the Raiders really don’t know what they are doing at all.  Broncos here but barely.
Patriots @ Chargers -2.5
I can’t believe I’m taking the Patriots here.  I’ve finally realized that the Chargers need to prove me something before I can pick them again.  The Chargers play better at home then on the road, but they are playing the Patriots.  They usually play the Pats tough in the past but there getting points here so I feel like I got to take them.
Vikings @ Packers -2.5
The Vikings won their must win last week, but they can’t stop now.  It seemed like the whole Packers team is now injured after last week, but they still have Aaron Rodgers and that’s all they need.  I think the Vikings figured it out and they of course have the Brett Favre factor, so I’ll take them here.
Giants @ Cowboys -3
It’s a must win for Big-D this week.  If they don’t win, half of America might blow up.  I’m just kidding, but you never know what Jerry Jones might do.  The Giants D might be back to full force of what it use to be.  I think they’ll upset the Cowboys here and leave Dallas fans still crying.
Lock of the Week:  Baltimore Ravens
Record:  44-41-4 (7-4-2)         Locks- 6 for 6
