7-Unit Play. #472. Take Philadelphia Eagles -3 over Minnesota Vikings (Sunday @ 4:25pm est)

These are the games the Philadelphia Eagles win. They get up for these exact type of games as they get up for the better competition (Patriots) and they play down to weaker opponents (Bucs, Titans). Such is the case here as this team is 2-2 and head back home after a disappointing loss to a very good defensive Tennessee team. Don't hold that loss against Philly as they faced a Titans team that held Jacksonville to just 6 points, so the fact that the Eagles scored as many points as they did was highly impressive. Carson Wentz is also getting his feet wet again and what better way to make a point and show the world that the Eagles are better off with him than Foles who helped beat the Vikings on this very same field? This Eagles offense is substantially better under Wentz, this Vikings team is still probably hung over from their huge back and forth against the Rams (who don't have a great disciplined defense like a Jim Schwartz Eagles do) and consequently, we like the Eagles to beat the Vikings team that remember is not too far removed from a 6 point game against Buffalo. The Vikings are 23rd in Pass Defense and that is the key difference between them last year and this year and the Eagles will be all over their young DB's.

3-Unit Play. #457. Take New York Giants +6.5 over Carolina Panthers (Sunday @ 1pm)

The Giants will play well when you least expect them too (such as beating the Texans) and they will lay an egg when you least expect them too (against the Saints last week). The Panthers are the exact same way as they come off a big win against the Bengals and now face a sub .500 Giants team. You can argue that this is a do or die game for the Giants as the Cowboys look like they are going to have the tiebreaker with the better defense and the Eagles likely to get back on track with Wentz and the Redskins looking somewhat competent. The only team not looking competent is the Giants right now but they are better than their record shows as they had to face some tough teams out of the gates including the Jaguars, Cowboys defense and Saints. We like NY to get back on track here and we like Carolina to have a massive let down after the big Bengals win as we like in particular the Giants Defensive Line to get after Cam in a big way. Doesn't matter if Carolina comes out of a bye, they likely lay an egg here.


3-Unit Play. #465. Take Miami Dolphins +6 over Cincinnati Bengals (Sunday @ 1pm)

The Miami Dolphins could not have played worse last week and have been called every name under the sun this week by the Press. "Pretenders", "Chokers", "Not ready for the big moment", "Patriots Little Brother" and the list goes on and on. This team put up 7 points as the division leader to a Pats team who just throttled them. This is the NFL. These guys have a lot of pride and we like them to get back on track and bounce-back here. The Bengals come off a huge win over the Falcons on the road and now they face a hurt, angry Dolphins team that everyone has counted out. The Dolphins have some talent or they would not be at 3-1 in the best Football League in the World. Remember, they beat a Tennessee team who looks pretty good right now, beat Oakland by 8 points who just beat Cleveland at home in a thriller and beat a Jets team by 8 who the Lions looked hapless against. We like Miami to hang tight here this weekend.

5 Unit Play Take #472 Philadelphia -3 over Minnesota (4:25pm est):

The Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles haven't hit their stride yet this season but I think overall they are very close. Keep in mind this is a team who's starting quarterback Carson Wentz missed all of the preseason with an injury and he's likely just starting to his his stride. Philadelphia went on the road last week and they led for most of the game against what is turning out to be a solid Tennessee Titans team before a couple of miracle plays went against them late and the Eagles ended up dropping a heartbreaker. This is a veteran group that knows how to take care of business which is what I expect them to do here in this one at home.

The Minnesota Vikings have also had a disappointing start to their season. The Vikings haven't looked at all like the same team that made it to last year's NFC Championship game. Most felt they showed a solid effort last week on the road versus the powerful Los Angeles Rams but all things considered I wasn't impressed with what the Vikings did in that game as they allowed an eye popping 10 yards per game defensively in the game. The Vikings have one of the weakest offensive lines in the NFL and that's likely to be a big issue in this one going up against one of the better defensive fronts in the league and one that is likely very upset feeling like they everyone down last weekend letting the Titans come back in that contest.

Take Philadelphia minus the points here.

4 Unit Play Take #466 'under' 48.5 Miami/Cincinnati (1:00pm est):

The Cincinnati Bengals get back Vontaze Burfict for this one after he missed their first four games of the season serving a suspension. The Bengals defense has struggled a bit without him Burfict as they've went above the total in each one of their first four games to start the year. Cincinnati lost their starting center a few weeks back along with running back Joe Mixon as well and then add the season ending injury last week to tight Tyler Eifert in the middle of the game. The loss to Eifert was a big one as the Bengals offense up until that point was rolling having scored 28 points in the first half but ended up adding just 9 more points in the 2nd half after Eifert went out against the bad Atlanta Falcons defense.

The Miami Dolphins started out the season with a 3-0 record overall but they ran into a buzzsaw last week as they were throttled on the road against a motivated New England Patriots squad off back to back losses. The Dolphins defense carried this team to their undefeated start to the season allowing an average of just 17 points per game in those first three contests. They've been without one of their top defensive players in Reshad Jones in their last two games and the Pro Bowl safety will return to action in this game which will help this Dolphins defense a lot here in this one. The Miami offensive line will also be down a couple key guys here in this one.

Play 'under' the total in this game.

3 Unit Play Take #462 Pittsburgh -3 over Atlanta (1:00pm est):

I don't think most realize just how far the Atlanta Falcons team has fallen off since the start of this season. There's no doubt this was a solid team before the year but they've been hit harder with injuries than any team in the NFL. The Falcons recent play has some people fooled because they've played their last three games all at home where they have been a much better football team. The Falcons have built their team for their indoor stadium and have struggled when they've had to go on the road having went just 2-7 against the spread their last 9 road games and have averaged just 18.7 points per game away from home during that time compared to the 27 PPG in their last 8 home contests.

Much is being made about the Steelers slow start this year and there's definitely some things to worry about but keep in mind that two of their losses have come against the Chiefs and Ravens, two of the better teams in the NFL this season. They also tied Cleveland in their season opener but that was actually an impressive showing considering they were -5 in turnovers in that game and didn't lose that game. The Steelers have their backs against the wall coming into this one but this has usually been the spot that the Steelers have done well in past seasons. This is a veteran group who should be able to take care of business here in this one.

Take Pittsburgh minus the points here.

3 Unit Play Take #476 Houston -3 over Dallas (8:20pm est):

Dallas pulled out a must win last week at home over Detroit in a game that they very easily could have lost as they needed a late drive to beat the Lions. I don't like this Cowboys squad as it's missing two of it's best players right now to injury in linebacker Sean Lee and center Travis Fredrick. These are two of the biggest injuries in the league right now and those losses take what is an average team at best and knocks them down a few notches.

The Houston Texans got their first win of the season last week going on the road and beating the Indianapolis Colts. There's lots of talent on this Texans squad and it looks like it's starting to come together as many of their star players missed most of last year with injuries and they now look to be hitting their stride. The Texans match up well here with a Cowboys team that loves to run the football as the Houston defense has done an excellent job this season stopping the run. Take Houston minus the points here.

3 Unit Play. Take #451 Baltimore -3 over Cleveland (1:00p.m., Sunday October 7)
Baltimore is coming off a big division win last week at Pittsburgh and right now the Ravens are rolling. Cleveland is coming off a horrible road loss to Oakland, which they should have won but didn't and now have to face a hot Ravens offense. Last year in Cleveland the Ravens won 27-10 and look for the Ravens defense to put pressure on Baker Mayfield early and I see the Ravens winning this game by a touchdown. The Ravens are 4-1-1 ATS in their last 6 road games and the Browns are 5-15-1 ATS against division teams.

3 Unit Play. Take #458 Carolina -6 over New York Giants (1:00p.m., Sunday October 7)
Lets face it the New York Giants offense is horrendous and if the Carolina Panthers can score early this game could get ugly quickly. The Panthers get this game at home and last week the Panthers beat the Bengals 31-21 and the Panthers have covered their first two home games of the season. The Panthers defense have faced two high power offenses (Atlanta & Cincy) and know the Panthers defense goes up against the Giants offense. Sunday afternoon Cam Newton and the Panthers offense will put away the Giants and wouldn't shock me to see the Panthers win this game by double-digits. The Giants are 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games against NFC opponents and the Panthers are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 home games.

6 Unit Play. Take #476 Houston -3 over Dallas (8:20p.m., Sunday October 7)
Houston finally got their first 'W' of the season last week on the road in Indianapolis and Sunday night at home I see the Texans winning back-to-back games. The Cowboys won last week at home against Detroit 26-24 but their last two road games they lost to Seattle 24-13 and Carolina 16-8. Deshaun Watson plated well against the Colts last week and if we can get the same type of effort by him and the Texans 'D' we should be able to cash this ticket. Lets face it the Texans defense played much better last week on the road and Sunday night on NBC defense will win this game and I see the Texans winning and covering this small number at home.
