Thumbs up Week 6 Odds and Discussion
I only posted the games that are up at the greek right now. Some interesting games. HEre are some first impressions.

What are your thoughts on week 6? Who do you like, dislike?

Baltimore Ravens
Indianapolis Colts -6
Colts have been so lucky and have not played a perfect game yet. Ravens off heartbreaker. Colts might kill them

Cincinnati Bengals
New York Jets -6 '
Interesting game: Jets off bye week. Bengals didn't look 1/2 bad this week.

Carolina Panthers
Tampa Bay Buccaneers -3
Carolina is looking good and points are tempting

Chicago Bears -2˝
Atlanta Falcons
Not sure why Bears are favored in this one.

Miami Dolphins
Houston Texans -3
Will Houston just falls apart after terrible loss today? Or do they rebound and win big? I like their chances. Miami off two nice wins. Sage up against former team

St Louis Rams
Washington Redskins -13˝
Bulger coming back off bye week. Skins off two division games in a row. Rams keep this one close?

Philadelphia Eagles -6
San Francisco 49ers
I think I was most surprised by this line. Thought Eagles would be like -2. Not sure what to make of it.

Dallas Cowboys -6
Arizona Cardinals
Arizona has looked very good at home. Not sure Dallas will play 3 bad games in a row though

Green Bay Packers
Seattle Seahawks -3
Seahawks need a win in the worst way. Holmgren faces Packers for last time in career.

New England Patriots
San Diego Chargers -5˝
Is this the game the Chargers finally put together a complete game and smack NE? I am not so sure, the points look tempting

New York Giants -7
Cleveland Browns
These are the kind of games that get coaches fires. Early lean towards Browns stepping up and winning this one.

is this an open opinion thread?

First things that stuck

out to me are...

I like Ravens, Falcons, 49ers... I like how the Ravens defense is playing so far this year. The falcons are playing tough and got the home turf... The Niners are strong this year, just ran into a better New England team today. Good thing for the niners, they are getting more pts in this home game and I do not think the Eagles are as good..

I am currently looking for a teaser option for i the Cowboys... i would lean Giants, but Browns had a bye week and are desperate to get some wins.

For other opinions I will not bet on

Just like the bengals this week... 14 pts is too much to give the rams and i dont think the skins can cover it

Bengals @ Jets will go over the total even if its 75.

Panthers @ Bucs might be the most intriguing game on the card that no one will talk about.

Will the Texans choke again this weeek to Dr. Jackos inferrior Dolphins?

Seahawks cover this -3 and get blown out on the road.. coincidence? yes, and quite funny.

bears are favored because they can stop the run and michael turner has been the biggest key to their offense.

bears will neutralize him imo and make matt ryan beat them.

don't see a rookie QB doing anything to the bears.

their defense is flawed too, and if kyle orton plays half as well as he did today, bears will win. forte still getting it done as well.

dallas is going to have a tought time with arizona....

our secondary is not very good and newman is injured and we are on our 3rd string safety besides hamlin. I can see arizona passing the ball all over us. I can also see the arizona defense giving romo some problems and hes been average at best this season. Id take the points with arizona
