Vegas Hags Pigskin picks

This week again offers some challenges, but that usually means great games to watch. I`m disappointed I don`t have the Giants to kick around this week (bye) and would like to tell my friend Kells that the Giants suck, anyway! Here we go…
Lions (+8 ½) at Buccaneers
8 ½ is a lot to lay as the Lions actually have a better record than the Bucs. I think there is a chance for a blow out here due to Tampa`s frustration and the build up coming off of a bye. But…I can`t see the Bucs O doing that much. Keyshawn will, however, get the damn ball.
Bucs by 4
Cardinals (+7) at Cowboys
Boy, did Troy Boy look great last week or what?! Stick a fork in him – he`s done. Cowpokes get a win here, though, because the Cardinals suck.
Cowboys by 3
Bills (+6 ½) at Vikings
Looks like a mismatch on paper, but the Vikes aren`t going undefeated. The Bills will ride a Flutie miracle to a W.
Bills by 2
Browns (+9) at Steelers
Paybacks are a bitch. The Steelers will be out for blood and they`ll get it, even with Kent Graham at the helm. The Brownies get baked here.
Steelers by 10
Broncos (-9 ½) at Bengals
OK, the Broncos are good enough to lay the points. Can you say blowout?
Broncos by 21
Patriots (+8 ½) at Colts
These two teams always play close games and even though the Colts are far superior this year, this could be interesting.
Colts by 6
Saints (-1 ½) at Falcons
The Saints are actually pretty good – the Falcons on the other hand…
Saints by 3
Rams (-7) at Chiefs
The Rams finally get tested! Everything will move a little slower on grass for Kurt & Co., and the Chiefs can be tough at home. Nah.
Rams by 10
49ers (+3 ½) at Panthers
These teams seem to be going in very different directions. I think the Niners pull off the upset.
49ers by 3
Titans (even) at Ravens
If the Ravens had any offense that wasn`t offensive, I`d give them the nod at home. Unfortunately, Tony Banks is putrid.
Titans by 3
Seahawks (+7 ½) at Raiders
The Raiders may be for real. Nice scowl, Gruden.
Raiders by 9
Redskins (-2 ½) at Jaguars
Jacksonville is mad as hell – but who`s scared? The Skins are a better team right now.
Redskins by 4
Bears (+6 ½) at Eagles
Are the Eagles for real? We should find out more this week. Before you are become a good team, you need to beat the teams you`re supposed to beat. Here come Da Bears. I think this Birds team knows what to do.
Eagles by 7
Dolphins (+3) at Jets
What a difference a year makes. Last year, MNF games were a joke by now. Here`s another good matchup for Dennis and the boys. Jets are tough at home, but the dolphins have a better D. If they can stop Curtis Martin, the Jets are cooked.
Dolphins by 2
Records:
Last week: 6-9 against the spread; 12-3 straight up. Year to Date: 52-47-2 against the spread; 63-39 straight up.
