Picks Against the Spread - Week 9

Last week: 6-7
Season to date: 26-41-2

Game of the Week

  • New England@ Indianapolis (+6) - No secret here. This is the game of the week/season/decade/modern era. The defending Super Bowl champions haven't lost a game this season and they are still an underdog at home. What's crazy is that it makes sense. I think this game will be a tie and down the road they will need to flip a coin to determine who gets home field advantage for the playoffs. I'm also picking the Colts win outright by a score of 34-31.
The Rest
  • Carolina @ Tennessee (-4)
  • Cincinnati @ Buffalo (+1)
  • Denver (+3) @ Detroit
  • Green Bay (+2) @ Kansas City
  • Jacksonville @ New Orleans (-3.5)
  • San Diego (-7) @ Minnesota
  • San Francisco @ Atlanta (-3)
  • Washington (-3.5) @ New York Jets
  • Arizona @ Tampa Bay (-3.5)
  • Seattle (+1.5) @ Cleveland
  • Houston (+3) @ Oakland
  • Dallas (-3) @ Philadelphia
Monday Night Football
  • Baltimore (+9.5) @ Pittsburgh - The Ravens defense should keep it close but the offense will have a tough time getting things going against the Steelers defense. In the end, Big Ben and Co. will make one more big play to win the game. Steelers 20, Ravens 13
Bonus Pick
  • Miami vs. Idle (-3) - If there is any team to figure out how to lose a bye week, it's this years 'Phins. In all seriousness, if Cam and Co. don't select John Beck as their starting QB for week ten, it's as bad as a loss.
