Game of the Week
San Diego at Cincinnati - This will be a true test for the Chargers. While they have been playing better than the embattled Bengals, this game is being playing in cold and windy Cincinnati and that will be hard for the warm weather Chargers. Expect to see Phillip Rivers struggle but with LT in the backfield don't count San Diego out. Final 30-27 San Diego.
Best of the Rest
NY Jets at New England - The Jets will give New England a better game than most people expect just because of the intensity with which they play. But effort can only get you so far and in the Frozen Kingdom of Foxboro, Tom Brady is king. Final 27-17 New England.
Washington at Philadelphia - Coming off a bye week the Eagles will be looking to get back on the winning track. The Redskins will have to play perfect in every aspect of the game in order to stay with Philadelphia. Final 24-13 Philadelphia.
Cleveland at Atlanta - For the second week in a row the Falcons are playing an inferior opponent. They will have to watch out to not get caught looking ahead to their showdown in Baltimore. With talented players like QB Vick and RB Warrick Dunn on the field, the Browns are in for a tough afternoon. Final 32-10 Atlanta.
Kansas City at Miami - The Dolphins have been terrible this season. After being tagged as a contender they have fallen off the football map. The Chiefs on the other hand were expected to fall off after QB Trent Green went out with an injury but have instead risen from the ashes on the shoulders of journeyman Damon Huard. Final 30-14 Kansas City.
Green Bay at Minnesota - The Packers have started to turn their season around behind QB Brett Favre. But going into Minnesota will be a very tough divisional game for them and the Vikings have been playing well enough to escape with the narrow victory. Final 24-20 Minnesota.
San Francisco at Detroit - This is a great opportunity for the Lions. They have one of the youngest and most inexperienced teams coming into their house. Look for Detroit to take advantage and come away with a big win. Final 27-13 Detroit.
San Diego at Cincinnati - This will be a true test for the Chargers. While they have been playing better than the embattled Bengals, this game is being playing in cold and windy Cincinnati and that will be hard for the warm weather Chargers.
