Both teams have pleasantly surprised with good play. It's a tough game to pick so go with the usual and take the home team.
Cleveland at New England
The Browns have been playing better this season but New England has been annihilating anyone who gets on the field with them.
Seattle at Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh is gonna be one really angry team.
Arizona at St. Louis
Arizona and St. Louis are going in opposite directions.
Jacksonville at Kansas City
Jacksonville should win this game outright but they are one of the screwiest teams around. I'll take the risk.
Carolina at New Orleans
The Panthers are a better team on the road than at home.
New York Jets at New York Giants
Niether team is all that great and there is no real home team advantage here so I'll just go on a hunch.
Miami at Houston
Houston has slipped a bit since their hot start but they are a better team than Miami and are home. Beating teams you should beat at home is the first step to becoming a serious contender. It's time for the Texans to take those steps.
Atlanta at Tennessee
The Titans won't need any late game Vinsanity to pull this one out.
Tampa Bay at Indianapolis
The Bucs are looking a little better but the Colts look pretty much the same. Awesome!
Baltimore at San Francisco
The Ravens look like they have taken a big step backwards.
San Diego at Denver
Norv Turner has ruined another good team.
Chicago at Green Bay
The Pack is back and the Bears are whack!

Monday
Dallas at Buffalo
With all of those bad injuries on the Bills defense there is no way they can compete with Dallas.

Won all of my early games.
Much better.

HAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!! i was actually surprised emo romo didn't mess it up again.

the worst part was, the buffalo fans came into the game knowing they would leave with a loss. then they had high hopes since the first few plays, then it all came crashing down in the last second.

twas a good game i would say.

One of the best finishes in my time of being a football fan. (Not THE best, but it ranks up there).

Now if only they would get rid of that stupid rule that lets coaches call time outs from the sidelines.

I don't see why that's a stupid rule. You should expect that to happen in that situation.

As a fan of a team that has been affected by this rule, I must protest this assessment. So let's say the kicking team expects this to happen. If the defensive team has a timeout at the end of the game, why WOULDN'T they call it to stop the kick, knowing this rule is in place?

What is the kicking team supposed to do in this situation, knowing it's coming? Not snap the ball and take a delay of game penalty, with the risk of the penalty putting them outside of field goal range? They almost have to kick the ball no matter what.

If the defensive team has a timeout, it's almost a guarantee now that a kicker will have to kick a field goal TWICE to win the game late. That, my friends, is the definition of stupid.

I presume a coach is not permitted to call a timeout based upon future events of unknown start times, i.e. saying "I want to call timeout immediately before the snapper snaps the ball, whenever that is." That is total garbage. Presuming that garbage is not allowed, there's going to be a time when the coach is late in calling the timeout or he calls it EXACTLY when the ball is snapped. There will be a heated debate and DEMANDS for reviews to determine when the timeout was called relative to the snap. All the stupid delays and other mess circulating around this incident will FORCE the NFL to modify this, yes, STUPID RULE once and for all. I say bring it on.

The NFL needs an offseason summer invitational competition in Indianapolis at which all their stupid rules can be exposed and subsequently fixed. :D
