Haven, I agree with three of your picks, except a little hesitant on the Ratbirds with Jacco (but still you are probably right--better overall talent will win this one for the Ravens) and I think Seattle beats the Foreskins. I think Seattle played a tougher overall schedule as the NFC sucked--the Niners defense looked pretty damn good last year when it held the Steelers to nothing and Seattle melted that D down in the last game. Now the travel is a factor--you are right there. It is a long way east. But I think that Seattle also has a bit better overall defense and the Skins can be scored upon.

Houston Texans (-4.5) over Cincinnati Bengals

Disagree! I'll take the 4.5 and the Bengals. The AFC south was a yawner division and Houston and shaub have been going south late this year. The Bengals could easily win this game.

Green Bay Packers (-8.0) over Minnesota Vikings

Agree! No way does history from last week repeat itself. Give the 8 points.

Baltimore Ravens (-6.5) over Indianapolis Colts

Not a chance! I do think B-More will win at home but I think this is closer than 6.5. Colts come close to the upset. I'm taking the points.

Washington Redskins (+3.0) over Seattle Seahawks

Disagree! While I like RG3, this game will be decided by the defense. The better defense is in Seattle. I'll give the points and take the seahags.
