I made my picks on Tuesday night, but I'm just now finding time to finish it off. It's been a busy week! Anyway, these are probably just as bad as my first 2 weeks, but hey, who knows, right? Obviously I don't!

  • Detroit vs. Philadelphia (-7) (44 O/U)
  • Arizona vs. Baltimore (-9) (35.5 O/U)
  • Indianapolis (-6) vs. Houston (47.5 O/U)
  • San Diego (-4.5) vs. Green Bay (43 O/U)
  • Buffalo* vs. New England (-16.5) (42 O/U): This line's since moved to -17 for New England. That's absolutely nuts! It's hardly even worth betting on. If New England does cover, you'd make $.06 per $1.00 you bet. On the other hand, if you dropped $10 on Buffalo, and they somehow won, you'd be sitting pretty with $115.00 in winnings. It's almost worth it just because of the payoff!
  • St. Louis vs. Tampa Bay (-4) (38 O/U)
  • Miami vs. New York Jets (-2.5) (35 O/U)
  • San Francisco vs. Pittsburgh (-9) (38 O/U)
  • Minnesota vs. Kansas City (-3) (33 O/U)
  • Cleveland vs. Oakland (-3.5) (40 O/U)
  • Jacksonville vs. Denver (-3.5) (35.5 O/U)
  • Cincinnati vs. Seattle (-3) (50.5 O/U)
  • Carolina (-3.5) vs. Atlanta (36.5 O/U)
  • New York Giants vs. Washington (-4) (40.5 O/U)
  • Dallas vs. Chicago (-3.5) (41.5 O/U)
  • Tennessee vs. New Orleans (-4.5) (45 O/U)

My "lock solid" picks this week? Baltimore (-400), Pittsburgh (-470), San Diego (-245) and Seattle (-200). A little more risky, but if I ever want to be able to get some solid winnings, I'll have to take a few chances.
