Sunday S~H~O~C~K~W~A~V~E~! Week 12

[BAGIANT]

YTD +425 I pick underdogs on the ML that I think can win outright.

CHIEFS +150 From their great start at the beginning of the year, the Bills are doing a 180 and it seems their QB has lost all his confidence. Where the heck is Losman anyway? Chiefs always seem to hang tough at home, and they just could hang in tough enough to win this game!

J_E_T_S! Jets! Jets! Jets! +200 Or maybe I should say, Titans! Titans! Titans! Confused? Well for those of you who have been around long enough to remember, the Jets when they first came into the AFL were called the N.Y. Titans. The Titans of the Tenn variety, have one of the best defensive lines in the NFL, but the Jets counter with one of the best offensive lines in the league.

If Favre plays it smart and dinks and dunks some passes, and their running game gets going, it could set up some long passes down the field for easy scores. Favre has to be on the top of his game Sunday and throw no INT's or none that hurt the Jets. I think the Titans can be had Sunday and suffer their first loss.

RAMS +280 Bears have lost two games in a row against very physical opponents, and almost lost to the Lions. Rams aren't a shell of a team that they used to be, but still have plenty of offensive weapons. Bears could overlook this opponent with another division game coming up next week against the Vikings on a SNF game.

VIKINGS +110 First time these two teams have ever met. Jaguars sure aren't the team we thought they were this year. Lost a tough game against the Titans last week after leading 14-3, and losing 24-14. Teams after playing the Titans have a tough time the following week. If Peterson gets his running game going against this Jaguar defense, it could set up some down the field passes by Gus Frerotte. Have to wonder why the Jags are only laying 2 instead of 3 as a home team.

SEAHAWKS +155 Maybe Hasselback has got the cobwebs swept out of his head, and is ready to play some football. Perfect sandwich game situation here as the Redskins come off a BIG game vs. the Cowboys, and then have to face the Giants in a BIG game next week! If the Hawks have any balls, they win this game!

CARDINALS +145 Giants are coming off an easy but physical game against the Ravens, and face the above mentioned Redskins next week. Zona plays well at home, and if Warner doesn't get "happy feet" against his former teams defensive line, and if the receivers can get open vs. the Giants one weakness....their secondary...Warner just might get the job done against this Giants defense.
