greek 10:25 this morning

Minny -6.5 over Arizona

Arizona got their 2nd win last week against Detroit while Minny's struggles contined at Miami. They dominated everything except the final score in that game. Minny is desperate for a win and I cant see the Az O doing much in the dome against this decent Minny D. Arizona 0-4 SU and ATS on the road this season.

Cincy -3 over Cleveland

If Cincy has any shot of making the playoffs they have to get this one today. Cleveland was jacked last week against the Super Bowl Champs and I am thinking they will be a little down today. Cincy D has been struggling lately but I dont think Clev has the O to take advantage.

Under 35 Jax/Buf

Jax has gone under 3 of 4 on the road and Buf has gone under 3 of 4 at home this season. Two defensive head coaches in Del Rio and Jauron on the sidelines for this one also. Jax D last 4 has given up 6/7/13/10 so cant see Buf O doing a whole lot. Lookin for a 16-13 game.

greek 11:10

Bears +4 @ Pats- The bears are basically on national tv and they want to make a statement to every doubter out there. I see the bears coming out and proving that the patriots are no match for them and not on their level.

New Orleans +3.5 @ Falcons- The falcons are on a downward spiral while the saints are fighting for a playoff spot. I think that the saints will over power the falcons offensively and mike vick will make costly mistakes for the falcons.

CINCINNATI -3

Palmer has been hot for 2 straight weeks and the Browns have an awful secondary hurt even more by injuries. Plus, Johnson tore up the Browns in Week 2 and is coming off a great game against the Saints, plus Frye turns the ball over alot and he will get sacked a few times.

7 pt. Totals Teaser
Steelers/Ravens OVER 33-1/2 with Bears/Pats OVER 31
I missed the boat on the Steelers-Ravens OVER, which opened at 38 and is now headed for 41. Steelers have been money going over, mainly becuase of their defensive issues, and Ravens have shown much more O the last few weeks. Rather than buying a bad number, I'll tease it with the Bears-Pats, which I expect to also go over.

Philadelphia +10, -111 @ Indy
If Donovan McNabb were playing this game, what do you think the line would be? 4? Classic over-reaction to the loss of one player. NO player in the NFL is worth more than 2 points to a line. So what if McNabb is out? It won't affect the Eagles' ability to run the ball against Indy's soft front 7. Garcia may not be able to make all the throws McNabb does, but he should be able to operate a short passing game against this defense. My main worry is the Eagles defense against Manning...not their O. But ten points is a nice cushion for that matchup.

Bears +3Defense shuts down Pats 17-3 Da Bearrrrs

AZ +6.5 Arizona wins this outright, viqueens are terrible

Cincy -3.5dont give up on these guys yet, ocho with another 2 tds today

Redskins +6these guys at home I cant pass this up. Gibbs might be done but he'll go down fighting, at least in the capital

Philly - Indy Over 44 Duhhhh

Indy -9.5 they are going to be pissed, no holds barred today 38-17 blowout

the greek 2:25pm

Chicago +4.5 over New England

This one is up to 5 at the online book I use. Dont know if the Bears win but I think this is a FG game. Road team in NE games is 11-0-1 ATS last 12.

Over 45 Nyg/Tenn

Tenn has gone over 7 of 10 this year and in all 4 of their home games. Giants O struggled last week but they should have a good game today. Giants still hurtin a little on D so Tenn should be able to score today as well.

Loved that last NE fumble to get the cover in that one. End of the Falcon game still puzzles me as Falcs had the ball at the Saint 30 with a minute to go and ran the ball twice and let the clock run out. For SNF

Over 44 Phil/Ind

First road game for Philly in over a month. I think the Colts O bounces back after a downer for them last week. Colts should reach 31+ and I think Philly is good for 2 TD's. Philly over 3 of 4 on the road this year.

Bud..As you know, astute shopping is worth a few games a year. NE bettors who bought early and Bears bettors who bought very late both cashed today. More than a few sharp middles too...

NFL Tonight: 6.5 point teaser
Green Bay +17/over 35.5
The Packers D is atrocious and Seattle's defense has been bad over the last few weeks. Hasselbeck should be rusty in his return. Green Bay should be able to score enough to bring this one home.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

the greek at 6:35pm

Under 43 GB/Sea

MNF two weeks ago and Seattle shut down a bad Oakland O. They play a little better O in GB tonite but I think they will play big time on MNF again. I think the running game will be featured by both teams which should keep the clock running. MNF totals this year 10-2 under in the 12 games played.

Packers & Seahawks over 42

I'll go diffrent than Bud Dude here and say over in the Packers/Seahawks game. I think with Hassleback and Alexander back, look for the Seahawks offense to get back into shape. With the thought that this could be Favre's last Monday Night game, look for him to put on a show.
