There is a problem with hardware acceleration being available and used by applications in Windows 8 64-bit with the latest catalyst drivers. An example can be seen with PowerDVD 12. When the catalyst drivers are installed and the KB2795944 critical update from windows update for windows 8 is installed it replaces the radeon drivers (at least partially, read below) and re-installing the catalyst drivers does not fix the problem.
This can be observed by installing cyberlink's free BD advisor that tests your system to see if it can support blu-ray/3d blu-ray playback. When KB2795944 is installed with catalyst drivers the advisor will show many failures and say you don't meet the system requirements and show the graphics card as "Microsoft Basic Render Driver". Uninstalling KB2795944 allows the advisor to pass all tests correctly and shows "AMD Radeon 6450" as the driver with hardware acceleration available.
However, playback within PowerDVD still does not utilize hardware acceleration and CPU usage often goes above 95% even though the advisor passed all tests. The CPU usage by PowerDVD is identical with the Asus 6450 taken out of the machine completely and using on-board Intel HD 3000 graphics to playback the same content and same scenes from a blu-ray disc or 3d blu-ray. So no offloading to the GPU is occuring.
These problems occur with the latest stable and beta catalyst drivers and might be limited to Windows 8 machines.
Anyone else experienced this?
When I last tried Windows 8 I noticed something similar, but did not search more deeply into it (I just went back to 7)... My indication of acceleration not working was during playback of a Flash Game (Empire)... it stuttered like a slide show and when you right clicked on the window to adjust the Flash settings, there was no option for hardware acceleration (which there is supposed to be).
As I said, I did not investigate further, it was the last issue that drove me back to Windows 7

Somebody tell me if I am crazy but it's been bothering me for a few days.
I'm using Google Chrome and the black-skinned version of the site. For some reason some of the white text seems a lot brighter and bolder (like on titles). I tried changing the text size with Cmd+ and Cmd- to see if my browser was not on the default text size but it still looks weird. It's been a little harder to read at times because it seems so bright and the letters look closer together.
Is this just me or has anyone else noticed this? Or is it just a permanent change to the look of the site I'm just now noticing?

Episode Description
The tech-heavy trading on the Nasdaq stock exchange was halted by technical glitch. That means investors were unable to exchange the shares of more than 3,000 U.S. companies including Google, Apple and Microsoft. Its the latest problem in a series of mistakes and errors for the U.S. securities trading business. President Obama spoke about college affordability and what his administration is planning to do to lower costs for an education -- but what does a college degree actually cost?

Holy crap, that is beautiful! Thanks for posting the links; I downloaded it and left her a thank-you note. Indeed, it's very rare to see gorgeous asymmetrical patterns like this anymore. I usually run screaming from asymmetrical designs (witness: the one-shouldered junk on runways and in stores this season), but this is asymmetry that's interesting, not bothersome.

First Cruise Experience by Chance & Frank Earle
We signed up for our first cruise experience with Crystal with many recommendations from friends. We were not disappointed. Crystal Symphony's crew made us feel welcome from the get go. We were part of the "Mix & Mingle" reception and met a few other Cruise Critic board members plus the cruise directors and hotel manager. We shared questions and got great support. We were especially pleased to have met Jane Salk, Crystal Society's hostess for this cruise. She made us feel part of the "Crystal family".
We had delightful table mates, who will be our friends forever. The waitstaff was outstanding and it seemed "no problem" for our special requests that veered from the menu set for the day. Amazing!
We did get great information ahead of time from Crystal Cruises and Cruise Critic which was an enormous help for us as first time cruisers. We would highly recommend that new cruisers seek out the info we did and just ask. Most folks gave us good info.
We know More
we will be cruising with Crystal in the near future and it's just deciding as to where do were want to go. Less

Cabin review: B8058
For us the veranda suite was just right. We had plenty of room. It would be nice is Crystal could put some sort of night light in the bathroom so one didn't have to turn on the lights from the outside and wake up the fellow passenger.
Port and Shore Excursions
The Panama Canal crossing was amazing. Great lectures beforehand and a speaker through our passage.
Our final port and disembarking was in Caldera, Costa Rica. We had a 2 1/2 hr ride to San Jose. You certaintainly saw the country but they are struggling. I had heard that the northern part of Costa Rica is far nicer.

My NYPD Revolvers
Hi All, Here are a few I used on patrol a long time ago.
I hope Bac likes this one. Sorry Quack no flat triggers here. :-) http://i1141.photobucket.com/albums/...DGuns002-1.jpg The bottom two are not NYPD just HD and range , all NYPD guns are redone by Smith and wesson, Combat revolver package and refinished. |
Interesting. I like me some Model 10s. Not as sure about the hammerless thing though. I shoot DA waaaaaaaaaaaay more then SA. But I still like the hamemr. :dunno:
You were a member of the NYPD and carried the top five pistols in the picture on patrol?
Not at the same time:embarassed:
I used the middle one's the model 64 NY-1 I was issued in 1988 The 3 inch i used as a back up and off duty alot, The top two I pick up along the way and had S&W give them a rebuild. The bottom two are not NYPD issue, They are range and HD duty. |
Great revolvers, it seems like they did nicely on the triggers too.
My NY1 has a very sweet DAO trigger. |
Nice collection.
Nice!!!!!!!! I almost spit my coffee on the laptop. |
No 4in skinny barrels in blue, round or square butt version? I do like the collection. Do you have an original JayPee holster?
Wow amazing collection Love Smith and Wesson revolvers.
Very nice collection, I'm a big fan of fixed sight service revolvers. Well done!
Nice collection you have there.
Thanks so much,
They are great guns, lots of fun at the range, now I'm a reloader i have lots of ammo. :patriot: |
Very nice collection.
1911club#410 |
Very nice indeed.
I bought one of the used popo trade in Model 10s at Buds a few weeks ago. I blame YOU, OP! :supergrin:
Hi Cowboyshooter
Glad I could help, Revoler shooting is a blast, get some good speedloaders and have fun. :patriot: |
I got more S&W revolvers thena couple! :supergrin: the Model 10 is currently shootin better than my Model 15 race gun :wow::wow:
<--has not actually gotten to race teh Model 15 yet <--may have to race teh model 10 if the chance ever comes up |
nice guns- thanks for your service to the people of NY. Too bad you pretty much need to move out of NY to exercise your 2nd amendment rights freely! (I see you are in Texas now-good for you!)
Impressive collection. "Been there, done that" guns are always more interesting to me that high-dollar collector pieces.

Solia All About Style Flat Iron Set
Join the Conversation
Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (...Keep Your Hair Healthy!Im a hairstylist and i fry my hair like crazy. to reduce damage in your hair when taking such extreme heat to your hair, its best to use a protein filled shampoo and conditioner, and deep conditioner. paul mitchell super strong works great for that. Using a good protectant like biosilk works well also because the silicone base coats your hair enough that the heat is not thrashing you, and it makes your hair smoother and shinier. and i see it often that my clients are holding the flatiron on their hair more than 2 seconds, always keep the flat iron moving dont let it sit on a spot, which will cause the blisters on your hairshaft. hope these little tips help!Reply to this postJan 11, 2010Link to this post
Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (...Hot HairIve been using this routine before I got the Solia straightner. -At first you use shampoo and conditioner (I prefer Garnier Fructise Dry and damaged hair). Make sure you wash out the shampoo before you apply the conditioner. I apply the conditioner and then wash my body, etc. Then I rinse it out and divide my hair into two sections. - When my hair is still wet and divided into two sections, I apply (Pantene PROV hair mask against dry and damaged hair). I keep it in my hair for 25-30 minutes. I then rinse it out with cool/cold water. - After rinsing my hair, I use the towel to get all the water out of my hair very gently using downward motions. Then I apply (Brilliant Brunnette Shine Serum) on my hair and consentrate on the ends. I love that product because it doesnt only make your hair shiny and smooth but if you apply it when its wet it fixes the split ends. - Then you may either blow dry your hair or let your hair air dry. I prefer air drying because you dont damage your hair. But if you do blow dry...dont forget to use hair protectant spray. - When my hair is dry... I separate it into sections. I first divide my hair into two halves (left and right). Then I pick up the top part, and divide that into 2 or 3 sections. First I spray HEAT PROTECTANT spray (Got 2 be smooth and healthy. Its in an orange container) And soak each section with it. Then I straighten the bottom section first I move up to the top and straighten each small section Then I do the same thing with the other side. - After your hair has been straightened, I apply (Brilliant Brunnette Shine Serum) once again on my DRY hair. This makes them ultra shiny and gorgeous. Woila! And its done. My hair looks gorgeous and silky and straight. Oh and by the way I deep condition my hair ALMOST every time I wash them.Reply to this postJan 11, 2010Link to this post
Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (...Cooler Setting, No ProductI was concerned about using a hot iron on my hair, so I looked for a product to protect it. There are, in theory, products specifically for hot irons that protect hair to 450F (if you believe the claims of the products): Paul Mitchell and Matrix are the only 2 brands I found who make such a product. I ended up buying the Matrix product called "sleek.look". The problem is, though, my hair got greasy and gross at the end of the day when using the product. Basically, if I use the sleek.look, my hair needs to be washed the next day. But if I have to iron my hair after each time I wash it, that means washing and ironing it each day, which cant be good for the hair. So instead, I use the iron at a lower setting, between 300F and 350F, with NO PRODUCT. The iron does a GREAT job, and my hair stays nice and straight until I wash it again 2 or 3 days later. I occasionally have to touch up my cowlick, but thats all.Reply to this postJan 11, 2010Link to this post
Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (...Frizz Free!I used to straighten my hair, then put a lot of products on it to keep it straight. My hair would almost always be frizzy within an hour, and I couldnt figure out why! I asked the lady that did my hair, and she said that some products actually draw moisture to the hair!!! My tip would be to put any frizz cream or shine serum in your hair right after you wash it. Then straighten it, and your hair should stay pretty smooth.Reply to this postJan 11, 2010Link to this post
Solia Tourmaline Ceramic Ion Flat Iron (...When Using OverseasI brought my solia to the UK with me as I really cant live without it, so I bought a converter to use in the UK..and the only thing I can say is DONT DO IT!! Because of the voltage difference, the iron went twice as hot (i usually use it on the highest setting) so not only did I run it over my hair and it sizzled, but the entire iron melted right in front of me and almost burned down the room! SO my tip is to leave your beloved iron at home! I am now going to purchase the pink solia to replace that little mishap!Reply to this postJan 11, 2010Link to this post

Rome Arsenals- I'm in love
So ive had multiple pairs of targas and boss this year and loved them now down to one of each and just picked up some aresenals. I have to say I like these more than the other two on my NS SL. The targas felt solid on pure speed but just felt more binding then the board, the boss were a bit too soft for me , still a great binding. The arsenals seem to be a mix of both, pure speed they feel great responsiveness in trees they feel great and stiff enough for me. Im 6ft2 205 and definitely felt the boss werent as stiff as i wanted them to be. Targas wasnt the best for my SL maybe a stiffer board. So my question is do any of you have arsenals and what do you like or dont like about them, for the price it seems to be a great binding. Let me know if you had issues with them. Rome bindings are the sh*t...love em

Uncertainty hits exploration
Publication Date : 14-01-2013
The Upstream Oil and Gas Regulatory Task Force has approved the working programmes and budget plans of 274 production-sharing contractors for 2013 with total investment commitments of US$26.2 billion.
Indonesia's Energy and Mineral Resources Minister Jero Wacik, who, in his capacity as the caretaker of the task force, last Tuesday presented the work and budget documents to oil companies, appeared elated by the big investment commitments by the mining companies.
The 20 per cent increase in investment commitments compared to last year indeed seems quite impressive, appearing to indicate that oil mining contractors have not been bothered in the least by the abrupt disbandment of the oil and gas regulatory agency BPMigas by the Constitutional Court last November.
The multi-billion dollar new investment commitments seem to simply ignore the legal uncertainty currently looming in the hydrocarbon sector due to the current parliamentary deliberations of the proposed amendments to the 2001 Oil and Gas Law.
Oil companies seem to have completely disregarded the mounting wave of nationalism in the country's natural resources sector ahead of the forthcoming 2014 legislative and presidential elections that will most likely produce a new oil law granting preferential treatment to national interests at the expense of foreign companies.
But further analysis of the investment commitment figures shows that the heightened legal uncertainty caused by the November decision by the Constitutional Court to close down BPMigas and the upcoming amendments to the 2001 Oil Law has hit the industry hard.
About 90 per cent of the investment commitments, or $23.5 billion, has been allocated for activities related to production development.
While these operations should still be welcomed in light of the government's bid to raise the daily oil output to 900,000 barrels per day (bpd) this year from the current approximately 850,000 bpd, the spending actually is not investment in the real sense.
What Jero described as investment in production development is simply spending to extract (lift) oil and gas from proven hydrocarbon reserves. They will not contribute anything to our oil reserves, which continually need to be replenished by new discoveries.
Oil contractors do not face any risks at all in their expenditure on production development because every cent they spend on activities related to production operations can be recovered from the revenue from the producing oil fields.
Of the $26.2 billion total investment commitments, only about 10 per cent or $2.7 billion can be classified as real investment because it will be used for exploratory drilling to discover new reserves. This spending can be recovered by contractors only if their explorations find enough new reserves for commercial production.
Before 2000, an average 30 per cent of contractors' annual spending was allocated for exploratory drilling operations. In the same period 50 to 60 per cent of new oil reserves were derived from new fields, but now more than 80 per cent of new reserves come from enhanced recovery in older, mature fields.
The last big discovery of reserves (about 600 million barrels) was made in 1992 in the onshore Banyuurip field at Cepu, East Java.
No wonder, Indonesia's oil production has fallen steadily from 1.5 million bpd in 1999 to the 850,000 bpd at present, while domestic consumption has exceeded 1.4 million bpd, turning the country into a net oil importer since 2004

BERLIN (Reuters) - U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama urged Europe to stand by the United States in stabilising Afghanistan in a speech to over 200,000 in Berlin that stressed the need for unity in the face of new threats.
Speaking at the Victory Column in the central Tiergarten park on Thursday, the Democratic senator said America had no better partner than Europe but cautioned both sides against turning inward.
"I recognise the enormous difficulties in Afghanistan," Obama said. "But my country and yours have a stake in seeing that NATO's first mission beyond Europe's borders is a success. For the people of Afghanistan, and for our shared security, the work must be done. America cannot do this alone."
Broad in scope, the speech was aimed not only at European audiences but also U.S. voters who face a choice in the November 4 election between Obama and Republican John McCain.
McCain, a Vietnam veteran and former prisoner of war, is an Arizona senator who has long been an influential voice on foreign policy and military matters.
He is making national security a central focus of his campaign and contends that Obama, a 46-year-old first-term senator from Illinois, lacks the foreign affairs seasoning to serve as commander-in-chief.
Obama has aimed to dispel that notion with a seven-nation tour this week that has taken him to Afghanistan, Iraq, Kuwait, Jordan, Israel and Germany, where he is highly popular.
The German media has likened his visit to that of President John F. Kennedy in 1963, whose "Ich bin ein Berliner" address shortly after the building of the Berlin Wall became an iconic moment of the Cold War.
The Obama campaign has been accused of exploiting the comparison by staging such a public show in the heart of the German capital. His campaign's initial plan to hold the speech at the Brandenburg Gate, Berlin's most famous landmark, was rebuffed by German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
McCain, speaking to reporters in Ohio, took a swipe at Obama for campaigning abroad, saying he would also like to speak in Berlin but would wait until he was president.
While Obama did not break into German like Kennedy, he did speak at length of the historic ties between the United States and Germany, touching on the Berlin airlift 60 years ago and the fall of the Wall in 1989.
"The fall of the Berlin Wall brought new hope. But that very closeness has given rise to new dangers," he said, citing terrorism, climate change and violence in Sudan and Somalia. "No one nation, no matter how large or powerful, can defeat such challenges alone."
Obama is popular in Europe partly because he opposed the Iraq war and has vowed to pull U.S. troops out of the country. But he is now pledging to shift the focus to Afghanistan, which is likely to mean more demands on Germany.
Obama said Europe and the United States needed to stand together to pressure Iran to abandon its nuclear ambitions and urged both sides to move beyond their differences over the Iraq war to help suffering Iraqis rebuild their lives.
Relations between the United States and Germany reached a post-war low under Merkel's predecessor Gerhard Schroeder, who strongly opposed the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003.
"Yes, there have been differences between America and Europe. No doubt, there will be differences in the future," he said. "The greatest danger of all is to allow new walls to divide us from one another."
His comments were cheered by a huge crowd, some wearing Obama badges, t-shirts with the campaign slogan "Yes We Can" and carrying American flags. A reggae band played and people gulped down beer under clear skies in a summertime party atmosphere.
The loudest applause came when Obama talked about the environment, multilateralism and human rights, but his audience fell silent when he raised Afghanistan.
"Relations between Germany and the United States will improve under Obama," said Dennis Buchner, 31. "But he has high expectations of Germans increasing their military engagement in Afghanistan. That will certainly spark debate in Germany."

A woman and her boyfriend were arraigned Wednesday on charges they killed two girls who were playing in a pile of leaves in a Forest Grove street.
The 18-year-old woman, Cinthya Garcia-Cisneros, is charged with felony hit-and-run. Her 18-year-old boyfriend, Mario Echeverria, is charged with hindering prosecution.
Police say when they were driving Sunday night they intentionally ran over a mound of leaves and heard a bump.
The accident killed 6-year-old Anna Dieter-Eckerdt and her 11-year-old stepsister, Abigail Robinson.
Garcia-Cisneros said she was afraid to identify herself to police. Her boyfriend is accused of taking the car to a car wash to eliminate evidence.
The Oregonian reports the pair are due back in Washington County Circuit Court next Wednesday

Rico Rodriguez did not make the trip with his team. His mom, Mary Lou, passed away early Monday morning in San Antonio and he was helping with arrangements Monday night. "Rico is a great kid and really loves being a Bulldog. I talked to the other seniors and they decided that she would have wanted us to play," said Coach Chris Tobola.
Rodriguez had started every game in centerfield for the last two years. Monday was going to be the 1st game of his senior year. Tobola put Rodriguez's name in the starting lineup where it always is, centerfield. The Bulldogs started the game off with 0 runs in the top of the first inning. When starting pitcher John Morgan Ross threw the first pitch of the game in the bottom half of the inning, the Bulldog played without a centerfielder.
After the pitch, Tobola called time. Went out and talked to the umpire and inserted Taylor Noble in Rodriguez's spot. The game finished with the Owls on top 13-0. The score really didn't matter. Life makes things look real insignificant at times.

The Incas were an advanced
civilization that migrated from the Andes in 1200 A.D. They then proceeded
to take over many tribes in the surrounding area. As they conquered, they
adapted knowledge of the tribes while enforcing their own beliefs and religion.
Within one hundred years the Incas had a civilization from northern Ecuador
to Chile, so as you can see, they were quite powerful (Ruiz, 1997).

Liquid Gold Award - 2014
Jim Murray's Whisky Bible
Nose: An incredibly rum-like aroma! Semi dried fruits, honey sweetness, great complexity. An extra dimension develops, offering rye spices. Fascinating.
Palate: The sherry is very well balanced, and at no point over-steps the mark. Instead Sonnalta wallows in the gloriously fruity territory of well-aged rum and tropical fruits. Feinty tobacco and calves' leather. Just incredible, and incredibly thick and viscous.
Finish: A spectacular finish of maraschino cherries and cocoa, a touch more sherry now. Very long.

Glenmorangie is all about pure quality mouthwatering single malts and the Sonnalta PX is one of their best expressions. I hope they make more of it, apparently it's been discontinued :( Sherried whisky fans will love it. 4 and a half stars. I found 2 bottles but none since.
6th February 2013
Fantastic drop with smooth mouth feel and exceptional flavours coming through. Highly reccomend this whiskey with a dash of spring water!
8th June 2012
One of my favorite desert malts, one of the more expensive Glenmo's but so so worth it. Has to be tasted to fully understand how good it is.
4th December 2011
They told us,it was a "distilery only" release.I'm definetely glad it's not THAT price on here!!My bottle's got about a 1/4 left in it.I'll be buying the replacement for it from here from now on!!
12th June 2011
I like the Sonnalta so much I had to buy another two bottles. This is going two dissapear from the stores shelves soon!!!
12th February 2011
Another beautiful and tasty Glenmorangie with a lot of depth in especially nose and finish! I already finished 2 liter bottles and I will buy me some more before it's gone!!
7th February 2011
This whisky and whole distillery deserves respect, because this PX is art of the highest level.My best scotch ever.
28th August 2010
It is truly amazing a real superb scotch
22nd August 2010
Simply stunning. Great experience
16th August 2010
A real great whisky experience
18th May 2010
This is simply wonderful, if you haven't tried it then buy some immediately, if not sooner.
2nd April 2010
As a huge fan of Rye whisky I've found some single malts quite austere but this is absolutely fantastic – rich, thick, powerful and very very accessible. My first bottle is already half empty, it won't be long before I'm back for more!

Morrissey Postpones Remainder of U.S. Tour, Including Beaumont
Morrissey's ailing mother has forced the singer to postpone his entire North American tour, according to promoter C3 Presents. The former Smiths front man and popular if mopey solo artist has already flown back to England to be with his mum.Photo by Craig Hlavaty
Earlier this week, several dates in the Midwest were postponed, but a Morrissey rep said shows would resume this coming Monday (October 29) in Minneapolis. The tour was scheduled to stop at Beaumont's Jefferson Theater December 1, as well as El Paso, Wichita Falls and the Rio Grande Valley. Texas was about the only place where major markets were bypassed.
A C3 spokesperson sent the following statement from the tour:
All remaining dates on the current US Tour have been postponed -- but not cancelled -- as Morrissey has returned to England where his mother has been hospitalized and is unwell. Due to issues with his mother's health, Morrissey will need to remain by her side during this difficult period. This includes the date scheduled for 12/1/12 at Jefferson Theatre in Beaumont, Texas.Those who have already purchased tickets for all upcoming dates are highly encouraged to hold on to their tickets and look out for the rescheduled dates. The new dates will be announced shortly.
Morrissey would like to thank everyone for their understanding and patience as the shows are being prepared for a swift reschedule.
You have to wonder if they'll rethink that whole "smaller market" strategy when the tour announces new dates.

Re: Sunday Service Plays
It's a 'Last Will & Testament' Weekend Football Freebie from Sammy Jankus, The Reverse Barometer!
Yes, as ol' Sammy prepares to go under the knife, I thought I'd give out my college and pro picks this weekend for free. Bear in mind that my practice of giving you the other side of what I think are the easiest games on the board has not been overly successful of late. Therefore, if I deal you a bunch of losers, you can say, "Hmmm, this guy IS having an unusally lucky season. Maybe I'll just buy his plays next week and NOT play the reverse side." Or if my flip-flop specials perform well against the spread, you might say, "Jeez, this guy really IS the Master of Disaster. I'll buy his picks next week so I can make money from his misery." See? It's a real win-win situation!
I like Chicago, New England and Buffalo as side plays.
In O/U action, I like Indianapolis-Houston UNDER, Chicago-Detroit UNDER, Buffalo-Arizona OVER and Cincinnati-Dallas OVER.
So your plays for Sunday are
1) 3* Indianapolis-Houston to go OVER the total of 47 points
3) 3* Chicago-Detroit to go OVER the total of 44.5 points
6) 3* Buffalo-Arizona to go UNDER the total of 44.5
7) 3* Cincinnati-Dallas to go UNDER the total of 44

5 UNIT PLAY (Interconference Game Of The Year)
New England -3 over SAN FRANCISCO:
The Pats are 14-3 ATS on the road off a SU loss, while Bill Bellichick is 13-0 ATS vs the NFC West and he is 11-2 ATS off a SU & ATS loss if facing a .500 or better opponent. The Niners are 1-10 ATS and a dog vs an AFC team when off a non-division game and they are 2-10 ATS after allowing 300 or more passing yards in their last game. I know it's a bit early in the NFL season for a game of the year, but I may not get a line that looks this good on this kind of play for the rest of the year. THe last time out for the Pats they were thoroughly embarassed by the Miami Dolphins and you can bet that Bill Bellichick rode their asses during the bye week and will have them ready to play today. Had brady not gone down then we would be looking at the Pats favored by at least 9 here. New England was ambushed by Miami's Wildcat offense last week and they will now be facing a Niners offense that is a bit more conventional. The Niners offense is 15th overall and 15th in scoring, but anyone can do that vs Arizona, Seattle, Detroit and the Saints. Today that offense will take on a Pats defense that has given up their fair share of yards, but they are ranked 8th in the league in points allowed (19.3 ppg). Matt Cassell has struggled this year, but look for him to have a good day vs the Niners 19th ranked passing defense. The Niners defense is also ranked 22nd overall and 21st in points allowed. New England needs this game in the worst way and they always play good off a loss and good off a bye week. Last week the Niners struggled offensively vs a por Saints defense, while the defense also struggled in the game and I don't see them having a strong game here vs an angry bunch of Pats. New England by at least 2 TD's here.
4 UNIT PLAY (Power Angle Play Of The Week)
DETROIT +3.5 over Chicago:
This one actually has 2 very good Angles to go along with some solid trends. 1st Angle: Winless dogs, playing with rest, from game 4 on out are 21-3-1 ATS since 1990. Angle 2: 0-3 (or worse) division dogs off a bye week are 11-1-1 ATS. Detroit finally fired Matt Millen and I look for a spirited effort from the team today. The Bears played well over their heads last week vs a very good Philadelphia team and they may overlook the winless lions today. The Bears are 3-15 ATS away vs teams that allow 24 or more points and 1-8-1 ATS off a win vs a team off BB losses, while the Lions are 12-0 ATS as division home dogs vs an opponent that allowed 20 or more last week and 13-3 ATS after being outgained by 100+ yards in BB games, plus the dog is 7-1 ATS the last 8 meetings. The Lions will surprise today.
3 Team 6 Point Teaser Of The Week---Indinapolis +3, Tampa Bay +9.5 & Philadelphia PK
Arizona -1 over BUFFALO:
The Bills are 0-9 SU and 2-6-1 ATS before a BYE week, while the Cards are 10-3 ATS as non division home favs and 6-1 ATS vs the AFC. After their opening week thrashing of Seattle, The Bills have been living dangerously, as they needed a late TD to beat Jacksonville and then vs a pathetic Oakland team they needed a last second FG to beat them. Then last week the Bills beat a sorry St. louis team 31-14, but they were outgained by 103 yards in the contest. Last week arizona was embarrassed on the scoreboard, as they lost 56-35, but they still threw for 426 yards in the game and outgained the Jets by 95 yards. The Cards will bounce back today, while the Bills luck will finally run out. Zona by 7 here.
Tennessee -2 over BALTIMORE:
Tennessee is 11-2 ATS away after allowing 17 or less for 3+ games in a row and 12-3 ATS away off a home win of 10 or more, while the Ravens are 4-13 ATS vs teams that force 2.5 or more turnovers a game and 3-10 ATS in their last 13 games following a S.U. loss, plus teams are 6-20 ATS the last 26 games following Pittsburgh, with the Ravens going 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games after playing Pittsburgh. Joe Flacco still is not playing very well and today he will take on the 8th ranked passing defense, that has allowed just 203 ypg and 1 TD, while picking off 8 passes, plus the Titans are ranked tops in sacks. The Titans have not missed a beat since losing vince young and they should be able to come up with enough plays vs this tough defense to get a solid road win here. I don't see the Ravens getting to double digits in this one as the Tennessee defense will come up big and force Flacco into a ton of mistakes. Tennessee pulls away in the second half here.
Indianapolis/ Houston Over 48.5:
The Over is 13-1 when the Colts are away off an upset loss to a division rival and 7-0 when they failed to cover the spread in 2 of their last 3 games, while the Over is 10-0 when Houston faces a division rival and 10-3 vs teams that allow 61% or more pass completions. Thelast 6 in this series has all gone over the total, with an average of 55.2 ppg being scored. Neither offense has gotten on track this year, but both defenses have been pretty bad and I see plenty of points in Houston today.
3 Team 6 Point Teaser--- Atlanta +9.5, Kansas City +15.5 & Tampa Bay/ Denver Over 40.5
Indianapolis -3 over HOUSTON
Tampa Bay +3.5 over Denver:
The Broncos are 0-10 ATS after a game in which they gained 6+ yards per play and 6-18 ATS in their last 24 games as a fav, while the Bucs are 16-5 ATS vs teams that average 7.5+ yards per pass. The Denver defense is trully horrible and it is taking on a Tampa offense that has found some confidence. We also note in this one that teams have gone over the total in their first 4 games of the season are 1-14-2 ATS. The Broncos offense is one of the best but the Bucs will slow them down enough to come up with a big win here.

Brian Sherwood
JACKSONVILLE –4 over Pittsburgh
Man, this one just sets up so beautifully for the home side. The Steelers sure have been living a charmed life thus far and that was never more evident then last Monday night when they pulled another rabbit out of their hat. The Steelers are down to their third or fourth string running back and that likely means they'll have to rely on Roethisberger's arm. Furthermore, they're coming off that big win, on a Monday Night no less, and that was about as smash-mouth a game as there has been all year. Now, the Steelers run defense has some pretty sweet numbers but they have not played anyone that possesses a strong running game yet with the exception of Philly and Brian Westbrook but Westbrook had just five carries before he was injured in that game. Two of the Steelers three wins were unimpressive at best and now they're asked to travel on a short week after a an emotional come-from-behind win and they'll be playing a team that is getting more fine-tuned each week. The Jags two losses have come against the Titans and Bills, two of the three undefeated teams but more then that is that Jacksonville catches the Steelers at precisely the right time. Pittsburgh can barely field a team right now and they're extremely vulnerable, more so then ever. Play: Jacksonville –4 (Risking 2.17 units to win 2).
MIAMI +6½ over San Diego
I'm a little gun shy to play the Dolphins straight up after choosing to play on the money line on two games last week that I would've otherwise won (Baltimore and Florida Atlantic). However, I do like the Fish straight up because these Chargers have showed us zilch so far and you can triple that after they went into that circus act in Oakland last week and got extremely lucky to emerge with a win. The Chargers two wins have come against the Jets and Raiders and they didn't look good in either, despite putting up 48 against the Jets. LT looks like he's almost finished, as years of abuse are beginning to take its toll. The Chargers defense is also a liability, as they have not shown the ability to stop anyone. Meanwhile, the Dolphins are coming off that impressive win over the Patriots followed by last week's bye. That win gave them a big boost of confidence and slowly but surely, Bill Parcells imprint on this squad is beginning to show. He's now had two weeks to prepare his team for a Chargers squad that's traveling halfway across the country. Parcells vs Norv Turner is equivalent to Bill Gates vs Mike Tyson is a game of scrabble. Also worth noting is the incredible record against the spread of teams getting points at home after a bye week, which now stands at 38-8. Play: Miami +6½ (Risking 2.12 units to win 2).
HOUSTON +1.50 over Indianapolis
It's always risky playing on teams that have yet to win but the Texans are not even close to being the league's worst. They're somewhere in the middle of the pack and a tough schedule to open the year hasn't helped either, as they've played at Pittsburgh, at Jacksonville and at Tennessee. Now they'll finally get a chance to play at home after Hurricane Ike forced the postponement of their home opener. What I do know is that the Colts defense can be pushed around worse then any team in the league and frankly, this team should be 0-3 and not 1-2. The Colts have been a perennial powerhouse for years and that fact has them favored here but this is a team in big trouble, as they can't stop anyone and the Texans are very capable of moving the chains. The problems that plagued Indianapolis in the opening game loss at Chicago cannot be dismissed as simply the product of an off night. The Colts have been completely off all year, as they've been soundly beaten at the line of scrimmage and that's not likely to change here. When the Colts were a powerhouse they had trouble at this venue and now they're a whole lot worse. Keep the points. Play: Houston +1.50 (Risking 2 units).
Re: Sunday Service Plays
Buffalo @ Arizona
We must commend the Bills on their impressive 4-0 start.However, when they need consecutive 4th quarter comebacks, against tandem (Rams and Raiders) that have fired their respective coaches since, a peek under the hood is required. Buffalo has strengths but still lacks maturity and a long trip here to face an embarrassed Cardinals squad does not bode well in a game where we only need pick the winner.TAKING: Arizona -1.10 RISKING: 2.2 units to win 2
Tampa Bay @ Denver
Denver's stock dropped after its stunning loss to the lowly Chiefs but that allows us to take advantage of a jaded marketplace. Give us the ascending Jay Cutler spotting a mere field goal over the unspectacular Brian Griese and you can count us in. While the Broncos had an uncharacteristic four turnovers last week, the Bucs lead the league with seven interceptions thrown. Note that Mike Shanahan has defeated Jon Gruden in eight of last nine encounters.TAKING: Denver -3 -1.17 RISKING: 2.34 units to win 2
Kansas City @ Carolina
Oddsmakers are regarding Kansas City's stunning upset of the Broncos as a fluke and have instilled the Panthers as a big fave here. While one win does not suddenly have the Chiefs scaring anyone, they are certainly more worthy than this pointspread would indicate. The Panthers are notorious for failing as a heavy chalk. Carolina's style is much like this visitor's and that calls for a conservative affair, keeping this game well within range.

Re: Sunday Service Plays
Jeff Benton
For Sunday we'll lay the big chalk with the Cowboys at home against the Bengals.
I don't really care if Cincinnati QB Carson Palmer goes today or not – obviously, Dallas would figure to have an easier time if Palmer sits in favor of inexperienced backup Ryan Fitzpatrick. But with or without Palmer, this shouldn't be much of a contest against a Cowboys squad that you know is still seething from last week's 26-24 home loss to the Redskins as a 10½-point favorite.
I look at that defeat as a big-time wake-up call for Romo and the 'Boys, and they're going to look to make a statement against the winless Bengals. Shouldn't be too difficult to do that, as Cincinnati is averaging just 13 points and 232 total yards per game, scoring 12, 7 and 10 points in three of the losses. Defensively, the Bengals are giving up 22 points and 330 yards per game, but those seemingly impressive numbers are misleading because Cincy has faced three weak offenses (Cleveland, Tennessee and Baltimore). The one time the Bengals went up against a quality offense, the Giants put up 26 points and 406 total yards, with Eli Manning going 26-for-43 for 289 yards and a TD.
Granted, Cincinnati had a season-high 23 points and covered its only pointspread in that contest in New York. However, the Giants were in a big-time flat spot that day, coming off a blowout road win over the crappy Rams and having their bye week on deck. No chance the Bengals catch the Cowboys similarly napping, not after what happened last week.
Dallas has scored 28, 41, 27 and 24 points in its four games, and I honestly think they can name the score here. Put it this way: If Dallas can go to Cleveland and beat the Browns 28-10 – the same Browns that went to Cincinnati last week and won 20-12 – I don't see how the Bengals compete in this one. Lay the big price as we're looking at a 42-17 final.
Re: Sunday Service Plays
Scott Delaney
Chad Johnson's big-ass mouth will once again get him and his team in trouble. He thinks he'll be kissing the Cowboys Star, but when it's all said and done, I really hope Terrell Owens has him kiss something else. Honestly, I think this Ocho Cinco pendejo is all about himself, while I can tolerate T.O. because I believe he truly cares about winning the game – not what he does personally. That all being said, bad spot for the Bengals to come to Big D, as the Cowboys are off that disappointing loss to Washington, and will be looking for a reason to run the score up on someone. Enter Johnson/Ocho Cinco, who provided bulletin board material for the Pokes earlier this week.
Like him or hate him, Tony Romo put up 300 yards and 3 touchdowns on an off day (against the 'Skins), and since the Cowboys will be able to run all day against the Bungals, I expect Romo to infuse Owens in the system early and often for two reasons … one, because he's the most dangerous receiver in the game, and two, to diffuse any bad feelings after last week's loss, after which Owens expressed some displeasure with the play calling. Guys, you can fully expect Romo to look like the same quarterback who threw all the Browns in Week 1.
It'll be another 300-plus yard game, to go along with a touchdown or three, while running tank Marion Barber will just tenderize Cincinnati's defensive line with his bruising style in the trenches. Trust me when I tell you this will be the most balanced offensive attack of the week, as we're going against a Cincinnati defense that has allowed 164.2 yards per game on the ground. And yes, the team ranks fourth in the league in pass defense, but three of the first four opponents either run or don't have a passing game. Just lay the chalk and enjoy the win, there's not much more I can tell you.
Re: Sunday Service Plays
Matt Rivers
For Sunday take the Packers at Lambeau.
Yes I know all about the numerous Green Bay injuries which include Aaron Rodgers who is expected to be a gametime decision. Matt Mauck very well may get the start for Green Bay and Brian Brohm may be right there waiting in the wings. That obviously does not sound too inspiring as neither of those guys are close to Matt Ryan but the Falcons on the road have been a disaster twice already this season and the third time truly should not be a charm.
Atlanta is still one of the weaker teams in the NFL. They are 2-2 thanks to home victories against the dregs of the league in the Lions and Chiefs and lost both road games badly in combining for 18 points and no touchdowns in the losses in Carolina and Tampa Bay. Green Bay is a very physical team ala the Panthers and Bucs and will confuse the young Ryan and just pound him play after play after play.
Lambeau Field is still a tough play for visitors and with the way the Falcons have been performing (or not performing away from the cozy Georgia Dome) I am all about the home Pack, even as shorthanded as they are.
This game will be far from a thing of beauty but in the end I'll eat the cheese here!

Of course I nailed my Comp Play winner last night as USC came through rather easily in front of the home fans. It was an easy winner and I'm getting another easy winner today.
We're switching gears and heading to the NFL as we're taking the Colts over the Texans this afternoon.
While Indy has not been nearly as effective as most figured, the Texans are even worse so far this season. Houston is 0-3 SU and only 1-2 ATS this season and has scored more than 17 points only one time and that came in a three-point overtime loss at Jacksonville last week as the Texans lost 30-27.
Now Houston gets an Indy team that is coming off a week off and owns a 9-1 SU record against it, with the teams splitting the money the last 10 meetings.
The Colts come into this game 5-2 ATS their last seven games on the road, while the Texans are 2-5 ATS against division opponents and are 4-9 ATS overall against the AFC.
Don't sleep on Indy as the team may still make a run to close out the year. That'll start today with a dominating effort against the Texans. Take Indy on the road today.
Re: Sunday Service Plays
Tom Stryker
Tennessee Titans vs. Baltimore Ravens
Play:Tennessee Titans -1
Off a Monday night loss at Pittsburgh, the knee-jerk reaction would be to side with Baltimore and its tenacious defense especially with a 4-0 SU and ATS Tennessee team coming to town. I wouldn't do that if I were you. Jeff Fisher's stop unit has played extremely well this season (allow an avg of 11.5 ppg) and they have the talent needed to keep the Ravens off the scoreboard.
Even though these two clubs haven't met since November of 2006, the road team in this series has been a dominant force posting a solid 31-17 ATS record. In surprising fashion, the guest has played even better provided the host owns a won/loss percentage of .500 or better notching a powerful 22-8 ATS mark! Tennessee has played well on foreign soil too. In fact, as a guest coming off two or more home games, the Titans are a solid 20-11 SU and ATS including a nearly perfect 9-1 ATS in this set coming off back-to-back straight up wins.
As tempting as it might look to grab the points here, this is not the spot for Baltimore. After battling the Steelers, the Ravens have struggled something fierce matched up against an opponent that checks in off a straight up win posting a soft 7-14 SU and 6-14-1 ATS record. In this role priced as an underdog of +7 or less, Baltimore is a horrendous 0-9 SU and ATS. Additionally, the Black Birds are a stunning 0-6 SU and AS in their last six priced as a home dog and carrying a won/loss percentage of .500 or better.
The Ravens are still limited offensively with rookie QB Joe Flacco behind center and his lack of experience is a liability. Meanwhile, Titans QB Kerry Collins has started in 152 career games and he knows how to get the job done. Take Tennessee!
Re: Sunday Service Plays

Indianapolis Colts vs. Houston Texans
Selection: Houston Texans +3.5
The line we're looking at now is really quite shady; maybe even the most suspect of the whole weekend. The general public loves the Colts, no doubt, but you have to wonder what's the reason. The fact is, there is no evidence that Indianapolis can pull this off.
Houston isn't looking so hot either; they are already at 0-3. But the Texans haven't played one single home game yet this season after having the lone home game against Baltimore postponed which is an unfortunate start for anyone. They have done OK except for turnovers, which have them at -3 for the season so far. Last week, The Texans did manage to out-gain the Jaguars and in their 3 other games they were only out-gained by a total of 86 yards.
Since this is their first game at home, emotions will be running high for the Texans who have won 8 of their last ten games at home (dating back to last season). Houston has its next 4 games at home. The colts were good last season with a record of 3rd in least yards allowed. But this season they've gone past 8th, mostly in their previous 3 games. Their most recent defeat allowed a total of 403 yards which included 199.3 yards per game on the ground; putting them at second to last in the entire League.
The Texans have been up against three difficult defenses lately including Pittsburgh and Tennessee, and have averaged 100 yards per game. The deteriorating Colts make a great opportunity for rookie RB Steve Slaton to make a breakout.
There are serious issues in the Colts offense and they are now ranked 17th in total offense. They are the worst on the ground in the NFL with an average of 62 yards per game. And Peyton Manning is still not 100%, evidenced by his 24th QB rating. The Texans, on the other hand, are ranked 9th in passing defense which has the potential to cause serious difficulties for the Colts.
Take Houston Texans +3.5!

Selection: Tampa Bay/Denver Over 46.5
Today we see a high-scoring game as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers do battle with the Denver Broncos. In all four of their games this season, the result has always been the "Over" for Denver Broncos games. This is no coincidence. The reason is that the Broncos are pretty much unstoppable. In their last 3 games, they have allowed an average of 34.3 points while themselves averaging a total of 34 points against their opponents. Denver's defensive front qualifies as one of the worst in the NFL with pedestrian linebackers and an abating cornerback in Dre Bly. This is going to prove to be an excellent opportunity for the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay coach Jon Gruden is excellent and offensively orientated which makes up for the lack of skill players. QB Brian Griese will dig into the defensive holes. Tampa Bay also has Earnest Graham who usually doesn't get the credit he deserves and an experienced Warrick Dunn to further torment the defense. As a result we've seen Tampa go "Over" in all but 2 of their last 10 games (dating back to last season). While the Buccaneers defense is decent, it isn't a dominating one and won't be able to do much about Broncos QB Jay Cutler's passes. They currently have one of the very best WRs in the AFC with Brian Marshall. At home they've gone "Over" in all but 3 of their last 17 games (dating back to last season). It's also good to note that when following a loss in Denver the Over is 11-1 in the last 12 games. Take the Tampa Bay Buccaneers/Denver Broncos Over 46.5!
Re: Sunday Service Plays
LT Profits
Chicago Bears -3.5
Now we normally shy away from seemingly obvious selections like the Chicago Bears being favored over the lowly Detroit Lions by just over a field goal, but we feel that in this case, the line is being kept down artificially because some people actually think the Lions will suddenly improve with the firing of general manager Matt Millen!
Well, we feel that Vince Lombardi would have a difficult time getting something out of this Detroit team right now if he came back from the grave, so we will cast our paranoia aside and accept this bargain line for just what it is.
The Lions have not even been competitive in their fist three games, as all those contests were over at halftime. Detroit has had a propensity of trying to establish the run early to set up the pass later, That is all well and good except for the fact that the Lions have mediocre at best running backs and their offensive line has been horrible.
So perhaps their strategy this week will be to throw the ball straight from the get-go? Well the problem there is that the Bears put great pressure on the quarterback and they allow only 5.5 yards per passing attempt. The Chicago defensive number would only get better if Detroit became a one-dimensional passing team.
Now can the Detroit defense keep them in this game? Well, the Lions are allowing a whopping 430.3 total yards per game, and they are allowing an incredulous 5.6 yards per rush and 9.0 yards per pass attempt. Not to mention that they allow the most points in the NFL at 37.7 points per game, so the answer to the question would be no.
We feel that only the Bears conservatism could keep this game remotely close, but rookie running back Matt Forte has run very well vs. much better defenses already, and that should et up some nice play-action opportunities for Kyle Orton later.
Remember too that the Bear could very easily be 4-0 after their thrilling win over the Philadelphia Eagles last week instead of 2-2, and they should roll to an easy win here.
Pick: Bears -3.5
Tampa Bay Buccaneers +3.0
The Denver Broncos were shocked by the lowly Kansas City Chiefs last week while the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are playing excellent football at 3-1 right now.
Well yes, the Broncos are 3-1 also, but that is where the similarities end. The Broncos could have easily lost both of their home games thus far, so they more closely resemble a tram that is 1-3 than 3-1.
The problem for Denver has been a defense that has been torched for 29.2 points and 411.2 total yards per game. In their two home wins so far, they survived thanks to a terrible call by the referee vs. the San Diego Chargers and by a missed field goal in the closing seconds by the New Orleans Saints, winning those contests by a combined three points! Suddenly, losing to the Chiefs does not look that surprising.
Now the Buccaneers can be 4-0 right now, as they lost 24-20 in the final minutes to the Saints on opening week before their current three-game winning streak. The key to their success has been the running of Earnest Graham, as the Bucs are averaging 133.8 rushing yards per game on a nice 5.0 yards per carry.
Look for Graham to have success on the ground again vs. a Denver run defense that is allowing 132.8 rushing yards per game on a terrible 5.0 yards per rush, keying this mild upset.
Pick: Buccaneers +3
Phillies -115
Joe Blanton has proven to be a shrewd acquisition by the Phillies, and he ended the regular season with three Quality Starts. Philadelphia wraps up the series.
The Milwaukee Brewers kept hope alive with a 4-1 victory yesterday, but we look for the Philadelphia Phillies to dash those hopes today by wrapping up this series in four games and advancing to the NLCS.
Joe Blanton proved to be a nice mid-season acquisition for the Phillies, as he went 4-0 personally in a Philadelphia uniform and the Phils went 9-4 as a team in every game that he started. More importantly, Blanton may be pitching his best ball of the year right now, as he closed the regular season with three consecutive Quality Starts.
This stretch began with a very nice starts against these Brewers on September 14, during a 4-game Phillies sweep that helped propel the team to the division title and delegate the Brew Crew to a wild card spot. Blanton allowed three runs and just five hits in seven innings of that 7-3 victory.
While Blanton appears to be in peak form now, the same can certainly not be said for Jeff Suppan of Milwaukee, who failed to record a Quality Start in any of his last five starts, and who has a brutal 10.12 ERA and 2.44 WHIP in his last three outings. As if that is not bad enough, Suppan was lit up by these Phillies the last time he faced them, surrendering six earned runs and eight hits in just 3.2 innings.
Now neither of these teams have done much hitting in this series, but we feel that Philadelphia is more likely to get to Suppan and the shaky Brewers bullpen here than Milwaukee is to get to a hot Blanton and a great Phillies pen.

And what will Uncle Bill and coach Tone have in store for the Bolts this afternoon? I have no freakin' idea, but I'm sure it'll be entertaining. Only difference with this week's opponent, it actually has a legitimate quarterback with the skills to challenge Miami's offensive surge, and that's why we just leave the side alone and play the over.
San Diego's Philip Rivers will be the lynchpin today, as he's is far more polished than young Matt Cassel, and most certainly has a quicker release than New England's heir apparent (for this season anyway). Through the Chargers' first four games, Rivers has been near-perfect with 10 touchdowns and a 109.8 quarterback rating. And we've seen the Dolphins' secondary become vulnerable when there's a veteran under center … think back to the Cardinals game, in which Kurt Warner burned corners Andre Goodman and Will Allen for more than 300 yards. Rivers has plenty of talent to throw to, and when your passing game is offset by LaDanian Tomlinson, it's a no-brainer to expect close to 30 points against an exposed defense.
On the other side of the ball, well I can't wait to see the gimmicks this week. Will Ronnie Brown be taking direct snaps? Who knows, but I can tell you it'll be fun to watch the play calling for this one, particularly because the Dolphins have no injuries to speak of and will be awfully motivated to use every strength they have on offense to turn things loose on a Bolts team that will have traveled from one corner of the country to the other. That's not an easy trip, and though we all know the corners won't have to worry about Chad Pennington's arm strength by the second half, my key to this one is Anthony Fasano, a reliable target who has caught 10 passes and a touchdown from Pennington, and another touchdown from Brown. Look for this one to get into the 50's.
Seattle at N.Y. GIANTS -7
Forget the whole traveling back East thing, and forget about the Seattle offense getting acclimated with one another once again, now that some receivers are due back. What I want to know is how the Seahawks plan on stopping Brandon Jacobs. Yes, I admit Seattle's run defense has held its own by slowing down San Francisco's Frank Gore and St. Louis' Steven Jackson, but neither one of those teams has an offensive line like this, and neither one of those teams end New England's undefeated run in the Super Bowl last season.
Today is easily the Seahawks' biggest challenge of the season, a 6-foot-4, 264-pound tank who is the Giants' leading rusher, and simply softens up defensive lines throughout the first half, 'til eventually you're wore down and have no choice but to hope your secondary can produce solid coverage since you're unable to put any pressure on the quarterback.
And that's when Eli Manning takes over and helps his Giants make the statement that all the preseason talk about Dallas being the best team in the league, and the Patriots getting back to the Super Bowl (pre-Tom Brady injury, and the Chargers would challenge them … all that crap … was just nonsense. Even the present-day conversation about Tennessee, phooey! The Giants are the defending champs, and today, off their bye week, you're going to see why.

Denver -3.5 over Tampa Bay
Aware the Bucs hold the defensive edges in this one, but the Broncos offense is dynamite right now, and they should bounce back in a big way off turnover-plagued loss at Kansas City. Denver is 33-25 at home off of a loss, while Tampa is only 12-22$ on the road the last 4 seasons. If you check our blog, you'll see that NFL HF's off of a loss against teams off of a win have been a very simple money earner the last couple of seasons. A more complex system fades Tampa and that one inolves fading teams that "broke out" last season by doubling their win total while going from non-playoff team to playoff. Road underdog off of home game is the worst case scenario for these teams, and that of course applies to Tampa. Cutler over Griese for my money. Denver by 6
