Beating Bill Simmons 2008: Week Three

No intro this week. Here are my picks (home teams in CAPS, Bill's picks in red):

FALCONS (-5.5) over Chiefs
Did you see what the Raiders did to the Chiefs last week? Look for Turner to come close to his Week 1 numbers this week.

Raiders (+9.5) over BILLS
Buffalo has looked damn good so far this year. While I think they'll win this game, I can't see them winning by 10 or more.

TITANS (-5) over Texans
Does anyone that's not a fan of these two teams care about this game?

Dolphins (+13) over PATRIOTS
New England will win but won't cover.

BEARS (-3) over Bucs
I still think Garcia should be QB.

Rams (+9.5) over SEAHAWKS
The Rams are AWFUL. But the Seahawks aren't much better.

Panthers (+3.5) over VIKINGS
Carolina will win this one even if Adrian Peterson plays.

NINERS (-4) over Lions
Mike Martz will enjoy running up the score in this one.

GIANTS (-13) over Bengals
Fact: Carson Palmer sucks. He has 18 TDs and 21 INTs in his past 16 games.

EAGLES (-3) over Steelers
Philadelphia almost beat Dallas on Monday. Pittsburgh barely got by Cleveland.

Cards (+3) over Redskins
Still not feeling the Redskins. I am feeling Arizona, though.

COLTS (-5) over Jaguars
Indy has looked pretty bad this year, but not as bad as Jacksonville.

RAVENS (-2.5) over Browns
Is Cleveland really this bad? Or does it just appear that way because their two opponents have been Dallas and Pittsburgh?

BRONCOS (-5.5) over Saints
The Cutler/Marshall attack looked unstoppable last week.

Cowboys (-3) over PACKERS
I don't think Green Bay's offense can keep pace with the Cowboys' offense.

Jets (+10) over CHARGERS
San Diego will start the season 0-3.
