NFL

Panthers vs. Steelers -14.5. Big spread for a NFL game. However there is a reason for it. Panthers won't run the ball on the Steelers thus leaving it up to Jimmy Clausen to keep it close. Not gonna happen if Steelers score 24 this will be a easy cover.

Ravens vs. Browns +3.5. I hate this game for the Ravens. The Browns despise the Ravens and are coming off a loss to the Bengals. The Ravens are coming off a big win over the Saints. Regardless I can't look at the Ravens roster and their need for a win and think they won't beat the Browns by double digits.

Lions vs. Dolphins -3.5. So their first road win in like 5 years has given them enough creed to be a slight road dog against a decent Dolphins team that may fly under the radar in most places but we here at the 64/60 know the Dolphins are the play in this spot. Another comfortable double digit win.

Texans vs. Broncos +3. I'm not a fan of road favorites but my distain for Tim Tebow has overtook my rationale thinking. If Tebow is to ever look servicable it would be against a terrible Texans D but I have a hard time even grasping that. The Broncos won't stop the Texans and Timmy Rah Rah won't be able to run 2Yd QB sneaks or jump passes all the way down the field.

Vikings vs. Eagles PK. I opened and closed my eyes eight times just to verify and the PK total didn't change. In a battle of mobile QB's I'll give the edge to Michael Vick over Joe Webb in a close one.

Recap: Steelers -14.5, Ravens -3.5, Dolphins -3.5, Texans -3, Eagles PK
