Buffalo Bills +7

Lets be honest, San Diego beat up on a Jacksonville team that was beaten up in the secondary and playing through a crazy week in franchise history. The "Chargers are back" talk has already been creeping around and I'm not sure why. Sure, Buffalo has fallen off the wagon, but there is still some talent on that team which keeps this game under a touchdown. San Diego has only covered once at home and three games all season. As far as statistics go, their offensive outputs and defenses are very similar. Both average roughly 23 ppg and give up around 25ppg. C.J. Spiller had somewhat of a coming out game last week and it should continue against the 26th ranked rush D in the NFL. Fitzpatrick has been down lately but San Diego's secondary will struggle with an athletic WR core. Honestly I think this game stays low, like 23-20. Ya know what.....analysis out the door.....

..... I can't take San Diego and give points to Buffalo.....what has San Diego shown us, they can blowout Jacksonville? Oh boy!

Buffalo +7 it is.....good luck

My best bet: Carolina Panthers +3

Carolina has played better than their record shows. They have had some growing pains of course, but Cam is a really good football player that has the team playing like they are somebody. Stewart and Williams haven't done crap the past year or 2 because the Panthers couldn't throw the ball, but with Cam back there the options are much improved. I know the Falcons are in a pretty much must win situation, but imo they just haven't played all that well this season.

Bottom Line: if, big if I know, but if the panthers D can keep the Falcons from scoring 21-24 points I think the Panthers pull out the win at home.

Detroit -9 1/2

Everybody is down on the Lions, and rightfully so after losing 5 of their last 7. So why does Vegas have them as almost a 10 point favorite today? The line tells the story here, and I think they come out with some fire today and blow Minnesota out. The comments by Jared Allen this week about how terrible the city of Detroit is will only help fuel the fire.

Stafford is also now fully healthy, people didn't realize he was playing with a broken finger and a glove on his throwing hand for 3 weeks. Last week against NO he played well in his 1st week without the glove, but the rest of the team self destructed. That won't be the case today as the Lions come out focused and stay in the playoff hunt against a bad Minnesota team.

I am going to take the Raiders + 12

Green Bay without a couple OLinemen. Oakland gives up an average of 25 per game and with the lightning fast offense of Rodgers and Co, they will most likely give up that amount today.
Oakland on the other hand is still in line for the Western division so obviously they will be focused , and with the newly revised Jeff George... or is it Carson Palmer , who is 2-0 lieftime against the Packers...Raiders will be ready to play and I believe will score in the 20's themselves.
One other thing to remember.. NO ONE goes undefeated, and its down to Oak, KC,Chi, or the lions to do the pack in
