To me this is the easiest over reaction of the week. Bears are coming off a blowout win in a game they didnt get to 200 total yards. That is about as misleading of a game as you will find in the Pro's The Lions were less underdogs at a better team in the Vikings last week so we are getting a ton of value I feel. This is a big game for both teams and Stafford is the better and proven QB getting a TD is very hard to pass up.

To me there is no choice but to take the Bucs here. They have major cluster injuries on the OL with 3 starters out and possibly 4. I think they realize that their season is surely over now as well. The Bucs D isn't great but they will get pressure now with those OL out for the Skins. Thompson their RB is out so is Richardson their WR with fellow WR Crowder questionable. I just think the Bucs offense will still be able to put up points and the Skins are so limited they cant play catch up here

They have seemed to throw in the towel after dropping that game at Houston following a 41-17 loss to Tulane at home which is a bad sign. Cincy in the night game with a very good defense wins this one easy

I believe we are seeing two teams here heading in the opposite direction. It's seems pretty clear that Miami has thrown in the towel after beating their rival Florida St. They have lost 3 straight since that game and the most they have scored in the last 3 weeks is 14 points. This team seems pretty disinterested. Ga Tech on the other hand is playing their best football of the season winning 4 of their last 5 games and scoring over 35 points in 4 of them as well. I also believe Tech has had this one circled after letting one slip away last year @ Miami losing by 1.

Tennessee on other hand I feel this team is looking to finish their season strong and make a bowl and would love nothing more to play spoiler here to Kentucky. This is one of those games based on the spot you kinda throw the stats and everything out the window.

I have backed this Iowa St team several times now since they lost their 2nd string and now Purdy who was their 3rd string has now taken over and really changed the whole season.

Baylor is coming off a nice win last week vs Oklahoma St as a home dog. The weather I think will impact this game as well as it will be played more on the ground. I also think Iowa St will be looking ahead to the match with Texas next week as it could put them in the Big 12 title game

This game is a very odd line after looking at it. So last week Old Dominion was a 4.5 point dog to at home to Mid Tenn St who is leading the other side of the conference and now they are over 2 touchdown dog? Old Dominion out gained them last week putting up over 500 yards of offense, but they had 5 turnovers that really did them in. North Texas is actually eliminated from playing for the conference title as UAB pretty much has it wrapped up. ODU still is fighting for a bowl game and I think the effort will be there and this is an overreaction to last weeks game

They return several pieces from a team that won 20 games last season. They will be lead by Ottey who averaged 14 ppg last season. Their returning PG lead the league in assists. They have the sharp shooter in Boahen who was sixth man of the year. I see UIC really putting up a big fight here against a Notre Dame team who is very down

Missouri let one slip away against highly ranked Kentucky in the 4th where they lead all game. That is such a tough one here with going on the road next. Drew Lock has also struggled big time against better competition and this will be the best defense he has faced. Florida will create turnovers and Missouri wont be able to play catch up

I know Sparty can stop the run but I'm more worries about their offense and their backup QB who was very shaky last week and now on the road I simply wont trust.

I look for the well rested Nuggets here to come out and really take it to the Pelicans here who are also off to a hot start. I think more of the Pelicans is in large part because they have played an easier schedule and also only 1 road game. Throw in that New Orleans has some injuries right now and they have Golden St on deck I think Denver is prime for a blowout win here.

I'm going to lay it with the Knicks here who haven't won since their 1st game of the season. First the Nets are coming off a high energy game yesterday giving the Warriors all they could handle in just a 6 point loss. These teams have already met as well with the Nets beating the Knicks by just 2 points. The Knicks were just horrible 40% from the field in that game and yet still had a chance to win. They won't shoot that bad this time around obviously and laying a short number with revenge I think they get the job done

The Saints burnt me last week and they are getting to much respect here. They were down 17-7 going into the 4th and had a lucky come back in my eyes. They will now play back to back road games which is difficult. I know people will say revenge here, but the Vikings are rolling right now and they can slow down that Saints offense. Minnesota isn't getting the headlines or respect because most are remembering that Bills loss but that game I feel woke them up. Prime time game in a tough place to play I will take the Vikings

The Colts beat the Bills easily does that mean we should overreact to anything? The Raiders are coming off their bye week so we can agree that the effort will be there. The Raiders just a few weeks ago were favored by 2.5 over a better Browns team than the Colts IMO. Now the Colts are favored by 3? Seems like quite the adjustment here I will take a hungry Raiders team.

The Steelers dominated the first game but gave up a big lead in large part because of all the turnovers. That simply won't happen this time around as they are pissed about that tie. Yes, the Browns have a different QB now in Mayfield, but I think this season is starting to take it's tole on them already. They have played 3 of their last 4 games in OT.

Getting nearly double digits with the Jets team seems just crazy. I think both of these teams are pretty similar. The Bears are getting a lot of hyper because of the Mack trade and the defense upgrade. I also think this is a difficult spot for the Bears to bounce back from after completing a hail mary against the Patriots and being tackled at the one yard line. Miami with a back up QB put up over 500 total yards and the Bears defense numbers wise isn't as good as what people make them out to be. I think this will be a tight game

Stanford has had extra time to prepare here as well which is huge. I also like the revenge angle with Stanford will swallow the Field Goal

Georgia has played one hard team so far and they were beaten badly against a LSU team who struggles at the QB position. Well I think Florida has just as good of defense oh and they beat that LSU team SU. Both teams coming off the bye this game clearly means everything in the SEC East plus the revenge angle is well in play here with Florida.

Houston won @ East Carolina 42-20 and USF beat them at home by just 7. Houston also demolished Tulsa while USF beat them by 1. Houston is by far the better team and the line is telling the story.

I like the Ravens here to bounce back after losing in OT to the Browns. I think they had a little hang over from beating the Steelers the week before. I know most will look at this game and say its the Ravens 3rd straight road game which is hard don't get me wrong, but the matchup here is in their favor and the 2.5 line is very key. The Titans proved to me last week who they really are losing to the Bills. I think they are very overrated and their offense won't be able to do a lick against this defense.

This one really stood out to me and luckily I grabbed the best of the number. This Rams team is best team in the NFL but this spot here isn't ideal by any means. They played a hard fought road game @ Seattle last week, so 2nd consecutive road game plus it's going to be cold and possible snow. Denver is clearly a team that plays better at home and this is a game they will be up for. I also really like their running game here against the Rams who haven't been as strong as what people might think. Rams also suffered two concussions to Kupp and Cooks and they are questionable. Denver keeps this close
