NFL results...

1. Baltimore -3.5 at San Francisco: As battered and beaten and without identity as the Ravens are right now, the 49ers are worse. Trent Dilfer is awful and Frank Gore has yet to get anything going. I know this because it's killing my fantasy team. This will be a downright ugly game, but the Ravens will win by at least a touchdown.

Ravens 9, 49ers 7 -- Man, who would've ever thought CBS would switch from any game to this one. What an ugly, non-fan friendly football game between two battered teams. Well, they did and the next game is the one they switched from. (0-1)

2. San Diego +1 at Denver: The Chargers are either really pissed off right now because they've been terrible or they're ready to mail it in, which I think it's too early for. I say they're pissed and the Broncos are falling apart with a looming Travis Henry suspension and Javon Walker out for Sunday's game with injury. I think LT builds on his breakout game from last week and the Chargers take care of business.

Chargers 41, Broncos 3 -- Haha. I think I won this one. (1-1)

3. Miami at Houston -5: The Texans are actually decent this year. The Dolphins are not decent. The Texans are at home and will win by a good amount.

Texans 22, Dolphins 19 -- Whatever. (1-2)

4. Tampa Bay +9.5 at Indianapolis: Word is Marvin Harrison is out and Joseph Addai is highly questionable. Take into consideration that the Bucs are playing really well this year behind mistake-free QB Jeff Garcia and ancient playmaker Joey Galloway and I like the Bucs' chances to keep this thing close.

Colts 33, Bucaneers 14 -- I gave the Bucs too much credit and didn't give Kenton Keith enough. It's scary when a free agent running back that came from the CFL can come in and go for over 100 yards. This team is good. (1-3)

5. Cleveland at New England -16.5: That line is ridiculous for an NFL game, but the Patriots really are that good. Tom Brady is the best quarterback in football and now he finally has multiple weapons led by Randy Moss and former Texas Tech great Wes Welker. Brady & Co. truly are playing at another level right now that no other team in the league is coming close to touching, including the Colts and Cowboys.

Patriots 34, Browns 17 -- This game wasn't nearly as close as the score shows. Fortunately, it was just short of being a big-time letdown like Saturday's Texas Tech-Iowa State game was for me. Yay! (2-3)

6. Carolina +3 at New Orleans: This sounds abrasive, but Hurricane Katrina was so last year. It's amazing what that tragedy was able to do for a bad football team. The Saints are proving last season's great success was a fluke led by some crazy emotion. The Panthers will be without Louisiana's native son Jake Delhomme but DeShaun Foster has owned the Saints in his career and will continue to do so tomorrow. Give me Carolina straight up.

Panthers 16, Saints 13 -- The Saints are really really bad. So is David Carr. Look for former Cowboys great Matt Moore to be the starter in Carolina by season's end. (3-3)

7. Jets at Giants -3.5: The Giants are playing well and that defense is really starting to jell into one of the best units in the league. Conversely, the Jets have a big bag of nothing on offense and won't be able to do anything against their Meadowlands roommates.

Giants 35, Jets 24 -- Hey, looks like someone's gotten three right in a row. Look out, Vegas! (4-3)

8. Detroit +3.5 at Washington: Could Jon Kitna actually be right? Could the Lions be a good team? They've certainly been playing like one and it's been mostly thanks to Kitna's efficient play, which in the past has been his Achilles' Heel.

Redskins 34, Lions 3 -- Ouch. Looks like Washington might be back to the old Joe Gibbs days, sort of anyway. And turns out Jon Kitna really might not be all that great. What an awful game for the slug-footed one. (4-4)

9. Chicago at Green Bay -3: I'm still not sold on the Pack being a legitimate contender because of their lack of a running game, but the Bears are running the risk of not making the playoffs after representing the NFC in the Super Bowl last year. Brett Favre is still a blast to watch and that Green Bay defense is the real deal -- more real than Chicago's.

Bears 27, Packers 20 -- What happened the Cinderella Story of the young 2007 season? I didn't see this game, but from what it sounds like Brett Favre choked it away and wasn't able to do what his protege was in the next game. Damn you, Brett! (4-5)

10. Dallas -10 at Buffalo: The Cowboys are rolling right now, plain and simple. The Bills showed signs of life last week under rookie first-time starter Trent Edwards and they will keep it respectful but I see the Cowboys winning by two touchdowns.

Cowboys 25, Bills 24 -- No explanation needed here. The Cowboys had no business whatsoever winning this game. None. Yet, Tony Romo found a way with some big-time help from his defense. Now, the only question is this: Does last night's crazy crazy win unite the team for a big run going into next week's clash against New England? Or does it emotionally deflate the team and force it to come out flat and get trounced by the Pats? I think we all know this much, if Romo throws even two picks against the league's best team, the 'Boys will be in trouble. (4-6)

Well, it's clear I did better in the NFL than in college. I was one game off being .500, which bettors say is the goal to shoot for when betting. When you're hitting .500, you're doing well. Can't wait til next week. College picks will be coming soon.
