Here are my “lock”
picks of the week. If you like your money, and
I’m sure you do, then take these picks and
send me a gratuity check when you come out on
the winning side (although I won’t hold
my breath waiting for it).
New Orleans –2.5 home
to Baltimore
I’m not jumping on
the Saints bandwagon at all. I’ve said all
along that their offense would be very good and
they certainly are. I’m taking the Saints
to cover in this one easily even though the Ravens
have one of the best defenses in the game. However,
it’s tough to win when you can’t score
and your starting quarterback (Steve McNair) is
hurting. Saints 21 Ravens 14
Carolina –5.5 home to
Dallas
The Panthers are going to
be in a really bad mood after their loss to the
Bengals last week that ended their modest four-game
winning streak. Take the Pnthers to punce on Tony
Romo and the Cowboys, who appear to be only mediocre
at best. Panthers 24 Cowboys 14
NY Giants -9 home to Tampa Bay
The Giants are beginning
to get on something of a roll, but I don’t
think they’re 10 point better than the Bucs
who appear to be getting some confidence going
themselves. The G-Men will win but not by 10.
Giants 21 Buccaneers 17
Cleveland –0.5 home to
NY Jets
I know the Browns are at
home, but the Jets are indisputably the better
team. Not only will they cover, but take the J-E-T-S
for the outright win here. Jets 24 Browns 17
Chicago –16.5 home to
San Francisco
I realize the Bears
are head and shoulders above the young Niners,
and that they’re playing at home, but these
high lines are really scary. Take the Niners to
cover – barely. Bears 28 49ers 14
