Ten and a half points to the Browns! Not touching that game tonight, though. If Johnny plays like he did in his start against the Bengals last year and Dalton plays like he did on Thursday night against the Browns last year, this game will end in a 0-0 tie.

Unless there are some circumstances I’m not aware of, NY Jets look like easy money in a pick 'em against JAX.

The Jets/Jax line is because both the Jets QBs got hurt last week, although it sounds like Fitz is going to be ok to play.

Buffalo, Green Bay, NY Giants and Philadelphia are all tough calls for me, although right now I’m toeing the line.

Denver gives 3 to Indy… sheesh, that looks like a typo.

Yeah, the Broncos defense does not provide a good opportunity for Andrew Luck to start his turnaround. The problem there is you can’t be sure what you’ll get from Manning, either. It took a typical Browns self destruction for him to get the win in Cleveland a few weeks ago. But then he puts up encouraging numbers against Green Bay.

I see that my Redskins are trying to manage expectations, with Kirk Cousins calling Tom Brady “the greatest of all time.”

Colts have generally had success against Peyton’s Broncos, I think, so… all right.

I root for the Broncos whenever they’re not playing my Colts.

The Lions cleaned house in the executive suite today, which means next year’s second round pick has a chance at actually making the roster!

I think the Browns stand a pretty good chance of beating Cincy tonight. Just a gut feeling. Cleveland/Cinci games are typically weird and go in an unexpected way. Dalton freaks out under the lights. Cleveland is due for one of their WTF unexpected wins. Johnny.

Dalton was freaky with that 2nd TD pass to Eifert, I’ll give him that. Look at Andy venturing out of familiar Mayberry.

looks like the Panthers undefeated stretch is over

Other than general gloom-n-doom, do you have a reason to say this?

Green Bay looked mortal last Sunday. I would be inclined to think the matchups favor Carolina, a little bit. Certainly, the Packers have shown that a stout defense can take them out of their plan.

I’d say it’s really too close to call, and depends on whether the Good Packers or the Suck Packers show up. Also, whether the Good Panthers or the Suck Panthers.

Percy Harvin may go on IR, he may not retire but I think his NFL career is done. Way too much a migraine of a player for his current skill level

The Panthers are dominating the Packers in the first half. What happened to the Packers that were 6-0?

They ran into two of the top 5 defenses in the NFL in back to back weeks.

Oops, just looked at the stats, and the Panthers are only a top 10 defense. My bad.

They played relatively bad teams the first 6 games.

I had some hope after the touchdown at the start of the 2nd half, but the Packers are probably going to end up where they were the past few years (probable NFC North champs, but will not advance far)

Pack down by 1 TD and 2 point conversion, exciting ending :D. Hope the Panthers can make it through!

The Pack is at least making it interesting…

Blechh. I went to the game, and while they were probably never going to beat the Pats, the Skins could have played much better. How many balls did they drop!?

The defense really played well during parts of it, but you can’t leave them on the field all day.

Blechh.

Talib, that may have been the scummiest thing I’ve ever seen a player do on the field.
