Bengals / Ravens

Ravens have an aging D. No Terrell Suggs. Ray Lewis is 49 yrs old.

This is Andy Dalton's second campaign - I am betting there will be no soph jinx tonight.

Bengals +7, taking the points, 'Nati can win this game outright.

Broncos/Steelers...

...seeing this game on paper, I wanted no part of it.

This game could be analyzed till one goes paralyzed.

Yet, just before kickoff, it all dawned on me...and it was too late to place a bet.

What dawned on me is that this was a game Peyton circled on the calendar. A game with too much Bronco energy.

These are the games where one has to throw out stats and paper matchups.

Denver could have beat anyone last night.

4pm game...

...Just not buying Russell Wilson leading the Seahawks like RG3 is doing today.

Skelton has more game experience and does have some nice receivers to throw to.

Arizona +2.5 to win straight up

One 1pm game...

... Chicago -11

I don't expect instant success from Luck - especially against a Chicago defense at home.

Cutler and co will put up some points better than their counterparts.

Chicago by 18

Wash State's

...defense allowed 200 rushing yards last week vs San Diego St.

Now they travel to Baton Rouge.

Think about it.

LSU -23.5

USC -24.5

Going with the Ice Man.

Close your eyes and listen to the Trojan band playing the tune all day long.

Rocky Start of the season...

...for the young Blue Schlitz, going 2-4 so far.

It's a marathon, not a sprint.

The juices start flowing on gameday, where I get more of a pulse on who I like.

Taking South Carolina -21 today at 12:20p.

All signs point toward east Carolina here. They disposed of App St last week and the G'cocks barely got by Vanderbilt.

Yet every week is a different week.
