I bet Chicago vs. Washington looked good in the off season. But now, that's a quite a battle of 5-7 teams the NFL Network has for itself!

• Chicago vs. Washington (-3) (37 O/U)
• St. Louis vs. Cincinnati (-6.5) (47.5 O/U)
• New York Giants vs. Philadelphia (-3) (42.5 O/U)
• Dallas (-10.5) vs. Detroit (52 O/U)
• Oakland vs. Green Bay (-10) (42 O/U)
• Carolina* vs. Jacksonville (-10.5) (37.5 O/U)
• Miami vs. Buffalo (-7.5) (36.5 O/U)
• Pittsburgh* vs. New England (-11.5) (51 O/U): This should be a great game, and potentially, the last big challenge for New England. Note that New England only needs to go .500 to finish the season to have home field advantage throughout the playoffs - and they still have the Jets and the Dolfins to go. I know they have a chip on their shoulder, but at what point do you start to back off and rest guys a bit?
• Tampa Bay (-3) vs. Houston (40.5 O/U)
• San Diego vs. Tennessee (0) (40 O/U)
• Arizona vs. Seattle (-7) (44.5 O/U)
• Minnesota (-9) vs. San Francisco (38.5 O/U)
• Kansas City vs. Denver (-6.5) (37.5 O/U)
• Cleveland (-3.5) vs. New York Jets (47.5 O/U)
• Indianapolis (-9.5) vs. Baltimore (44 O/U)
• New Orleans vs. Atlanta (-4) (43 O/U)

My "Lock Solid" picks for the week? Cincinnati (-275), Dallas (-550), Seattle (-320), and New Orleans (-210).

Check back next week for the results.
