Browns -7.5
I don't see how the Jets score at all, especially without Garrett Wilson...unless you count a pick-six. Jets D will get gassed by being on the field so long -- Browns D is especially strong at home -- but I think Browns also have success running on that Jets D plus Cooper is hot, as is Flacco, who has a revenge angle going.
Cowboys -5
I like @B.A.R. analysis on this game and think the "over" is a good play, too, for the reasons he said. Besides Cowboys/Dak at home angle, I would add that Lions seem to thrive on their team speed (e.g., blowout win over Detroit) and Dallas with beasts like Parsons is well-equipped to contain speed.
Titans +4
Vrabel 3-0 when facing the same team for second time in three games. Texans injuries on defense will help Titans offense improve. Titans defense is playing better lately.
Colts -3.5
Raiders' biggest losses have come heading east at 1 p.m. -- 38-10 loss at Buffalo, 30-12 loss at Bagent-led Bears. Return of Pittman will help Colts offense look a lot better this week.
Giants +5.5
Giants pass defense is a lot better at home. I like Tyrod playing.
Bucs ML
Good pass attacks do very well vs Saints, especially with Lattimore gone. I think Bucs D can keep momentum. I prefer Baker to Derek.
Chiefs -6.5
Get-right game for Patty vs Bengals defense. Bengals O that doesn't run well, that relies heavily on its wide receivers matches up terribly against Chiefs with their awesome secondary.
Vikings ML
Packers awful on the road, their secondary stinks especially without Jaire, Vikings have the better receiver weapons and the better run defense.
