Week 7 starting point

[kermit]

This week sucks, everytime I go to make a bet I cant feel confident about it good thing I have a couple of days to think about it and follow your guys plays

Leaning towards

Atlanta +3...I think that with TB playing a tough home game Atlanta has a chance to get back to the top of their division where they feel they belong, using the same game plan as SF did last week running Turner as much as possible and doing everything they can to keep Megatron in check

Carolina -2.5...Cam Newton finally gets the win he is after, Washington going with a new QB and I dont think they have the defense to keep Carolinas passing game under control

Chicago -1.0....I like Chicago I think they have an overall better team than TB and even though they are on the road they need to put some wins together to even have a chance at a post season they play hungry for at least another few weeks, the defense looks good and Forte is rolling right now

any thoughts you guys have on these would be great, especially some angles I havent seen for and against these picks

I like both Atlanta and Chicago. If Martz keeps the same protection schemes that he did versus the Vikings, which totally shut down their pass rush, they could win easy. Which Tampa team shows up? The one that beat the Falcons and Saints at home, or the one that got blown out by the 9ers and almost lost to the Colts? They are an inconsistent team, and if the Bears can just protect Cutler they win big.
