Game: Tampa Bay Bucaneers vs Pittsburgh Steelers
Pick: Pittsburgh Steelers -2,5, 1,91 on Betsson SB

The Pittsburgh Steelers are in a record of 2-0, defeated the Atlanta Falcons at home and 15-9 away from home defeated the Tennessee Titans 19:11.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are with a record of 2-0, defeated the Cleveland Browns at home and 17-14 away from home defeated the Carolina Panthers 20:7.

The Pittsburgh Steelers despite the absence of their main QB the team has managed to win their meeting despite the problems in getting touchdowns, because the Steelers defense has solved all the games, the team is defending a lot and is very difficult to pass either the passing game and rushing game is in defense of the Steelers and not forget that the Steelers have stopped attacks well enough, especially the Atlanta Falcons where they only allowed 3 FG's.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are the great astonishment of the start of the NFL, nobody thought that team is going to be with a record of 2-0, it is true that had a very balanced game against the Browns face the Panthers but the team had been on the game and made a good game is a team that is under construction and that has many inexperienced youngsters, it is true that won both their games but never beaten a team like the Steelers in two games.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will have huge problems getting points against this defense of the Steelers, both in the passing game in the rushing game as I see enormous problems for the Bucs, who will certainly be many sacks, interceptions and fumbles caused Steelers and sincerely see no Buccaneers these leaves here with a record of 3-0 in the first 3 games and so I think the Steelers despite the absence of their main QB will get beat this meeting for more than a FG of difference.

Game: Minnesota Vikings vs Detroit Lions
Pick: Minnesota Vikings -10,5, 1,91 on 888sport

The Detroit Lions are with a record of 0-2, lost her home against the Chicago Bears and 14:19 at home against the Philadelphia Eagles 32:35.

The Minnesota Vikings are in a record of 0-2, lost her home against the New Orleans Saints 9:14 and at home against the Miami Dolphins 10:14.

It is true that the Detroit Lions might have won against the Chicago Bears against the Philadelphia Eagles but despite the result balanced the game only reached this level because the Philadelphia Eagles thought the game was already won in that time the Detroit Lions took advantage of doing 2 touchdowns rapids. Defensively the team has been seriously affected by the passing game and also by the rushing game where the Minnesota Vikings have good weapons to take advantage of these weaknesses.

Who knew that the Minnesota Vikings had a starter of the team is required to win this meet and has such weapons for the defense of the Minnesota Vikings have done their work, only allowed 28 points in two games but the attack is that it has failed , before the Saints had nine points and face the Dolphins 10 points and not enough to win games but I think tomorrow against the weak Lions defense of the Vikings will be much better in this part as the attack will certainly be better and also QB Favre will have more pace in the arm and with RB Adrian Peterson dominating the rushing game.

With Minnesota Vikings is bound to win this encounter since their calendar will only complicate the following weeks and in front of your audience who is the best in the NFL think the Minnesota Vikings have everything to win this encounter and finally put the attack on run against a defense with some problems that QB Favre can cause problems with passing game and RB Adrian Peterson rushing in the game and so I think that despite the high spread that the Minnesota Vikings will win this event for more than 11 points.

Game: Carolina Panthers vs Cincinnati Bengals
Pick: Cincinnati Bengals -3, 1,93 on Pinnacle


The Cincinnati Bengals are at a record of 1-1, lost at home for the New England Patriots 00:38 and won the Baltimore Ravens at home by 15:10.

The Carolina Panthers are with a record of 0-2, lost at home for the New York Giants 18:31 and 7:20 at home against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

The Carolina Panthers are huge problems with this year without a wide receiver dejeito the running game that was the strongest of the Panthers game suffers a lot because opposing defenses can focus more on that aspect and that is why the team this year or in rushing game has gotten away, the team is a disgrace and now the Panthers are going to use for the first time the rookie QB that simply is not ready for a game of this caliber much less a defense as aggressive as the Cincinnati Bengals, I think Tomorrow we have a festival of interception and sacks for the Cincinnati Bengals.

Cincinnati Bengals has been a good defensive game against the Baltimore Ravens offensively but the thing did not go well but still managed to win the match without making a single touchdown, certainly compared to the Carolina Panthers attack will be much better against this defense and the Panthers I think QB Palmer could do immense damage with their passes to their wide receivers.

Cincinnati Bengals for me to play your game will massacre these Carolina Panthers rookie QB mainly it will have immense pressure of the Bengals defense, both in defense and attack the Cincinnati Bengals are far superior to the Carolina Panthers and thus believe that the Cincinnati Bengals tomorrow will win this match without major problems.

Thanks for the analysis...it is nice when people actually give the reason for the pick instead of just posting it.

With that said i going against the public and am picking Tampa at home. Batch is not very good and the only reason they beat Tennessee was because of turnovers and poor qb play. Freeman is playing well and I think Pitt will turn it over (I hope to get 3 points Sunday). Also I like Carolina and the points. here are some trends to consider: CINCINNATI: 0-8 ATS as favorite
CAROLINA: 6-0 Under at home off ATS loss


Anyway, good luck with your picks.

Game: Baltimore Ravens vs Cleveland Browns
Pick: Baltimore Ravens -10,5, 1,93 on Pinnacle

Baltimore Ravens

* The Ravens began this season in the best way to defeat the Jets in the first match at the new stadium the team from New York. However, not impressed offensively and even came to pass during the second day against the Bengals. In two games scored 20 points, which turns out to be pretty bad for a team full of pretensions. With the departure of Rex Ryan for 2 years for the Jets, it was envisaged that the team resented the Ravens at a little defensive and they became a bit more powerful in attack. Last season has already started to see a little of this and where Flacco appeared as a quarterback and enjoying quiet moments all in the pocket to pass the ball for sure. Ray Rice made a huge season in both rushing and receiving in. With the inclusion of the Ravens Anquan Boldin further reinforced the idea that people were becoming a predominantly offensive team. The truth is that they are not yet able to translate that idea into the field. An average of 10 points per game is too little for a team with ambition to be champion. The defeat against the division rival Bengals was very controversial with some flags questionable tripping like Ray Lewis or the roughing the passer's Terrell Suggs. Although they lost, and there is nothing to do about it, it's nothing to worry about for now. Why? Because in the AFC all the candidates for the title match of the conference have already lost. Both Colts as the Patriots, Jets and Chargers have already reached a defeat. It is time to turn things and this game against the Browns comes in handy. Defensively the team has been a joy. They did not allow any touchdown until now, only conceded 24 points to date, which is contrary to the idea that the secondary would be the biggest problem the team. So far really has not been in any trouble and I think you can not ask more to this defense. Since the attack ...


Cleveland Browns

* If this team was bad in the power rankings is even worse when you can not count on the starting quarterback, Jake Delhomme. Not that Delhomme is something special and the first game of the season it became see well, but if the owner is because it is better that backup Seneca Wallace. The Browns quarterbacks have been mediocre to throw the ball to Wallace who is not sure they will improve this statistic. The running back Jerome Harris is questionable for this match and even if you are physically fit do not know whether to be the leading rusher. By the time the alleged second choice of Mangini, Peyton Hillis has all the rushing touchdowns and the team after the fumble by Harris last week, Hillis is very likely to be the holder. Joshua Cribbs has not made magic in his kick returns and although it is questionable for the game with the Ravens think that may be available. The level of defense is certain that the Browns suffered only 33 points in two games but do not be fooled by the numbers. Two losses were against teams that basically are not candidates for anything like the Browns themselves. In fact, this turns out to be a poor indicator because it makes us wonder if the Browns are capable of winning teams of poor quality. Although it is true that both Bucs and Chiefs have started the season very well, is not expected to ever reach the playoffs.



* With the Ravens being one of the best defenses in the NFL and has not suffered a single touchdown, either by ground or by air, it is hard to believe the Browns will be the first team to do it. Do not say no because most likely the points will do, because if Joshua Cribbs returns to play will always be unpredictable, but I think you must have very good faith in the Browns think they can come as a surprise in this game, and especially can not count, as has been said, with his starting quarterback. In my opinion the 33 points conceded by the Browns may even double in the game today. I'm having faith that Flacco will try everything to which his touchdowns-interceptions ratio is reversed. Remember that Flacco has just one touchdown against five interceptions which makes immediately see that the fact that the Ravens have not scored points almost none. If Josh Freeman got two touchdown passes against the Browns imagine what Flacco can do. And also as I said before, this is the ideal game for the Ravens do see that his attack, as predicted before the start of the season, is one of the best attacks in the NFL. I am confident that Anquan Boldin will have a fantastic game as the Ravens running backs, especially the unpredictable Ray Rice that until now has not had big games. With all these factors in favor of the Ravens, I think it will probably be a game one way in which the Ravens will do everything to crush, and where Flacco will emerge as a prominent figure with three or more touchdown passes. The Browns are not going to react and Seneca Wallace will see their passes intercepted more than once. For me this was one of the games that I soon caught her attention as they win by 11 points to the Browns do not seem to be difficult since it takes only two touchdowns of difference. The reason for the spread is relatively low, compared for example with the Patriots Bills x is to the Browns have not suffered many points and the Ravens still have not reached the level that they were offensive tax. However, this will change today and possibly the Ravens will have a quieter games of the season.

Don't forget that the falcons gave Pitt the win in overtime with a turnover. Odds are falcons would have won with a sudden death field goal.
Good Luck, I like Tampa at home today though.

Game: Chicago Bears vs Green Bay Packers
Pick: Green Bay Packers -3,0, 2,05 on Pinnacle

The Green Bay Packers are with a record of 2-0, beat out the Philadelphia Eagles at home by 27:20 and beat the Buffalo Bills by 34:7.

The Chicago Bears are in a record of 2-0, defeated the Detroit Lions at home away from home 19:14 and the Dallas Cowboys by 27:20.

Great game that we must MNF and this despite the Chicago Bears play at home which is always important in these games but do not see them getting the better later that night. The Chicago Bears got lucky and were facing the Lions beat the Cowboys in Dallas which is always a great victory in that game despite the Cowboys once again be killed themselves, QB Jay Cutler showed great quality in these two meetings but that he has in habituated in the other season but was always unable to maintain the same level during the same time making the game especially when facing horrible defenses of high quality which is the case of the night and just beyond the Bears' OL is not great rifle in the defense Packers will take to sack or pressure in making the launch of faster Jay Cutler at risk of suffering interceptions.

The Green Bay Packers are considered by many one of the teams will go to the Superbowl this year, the reason is simple, the team has an excellent QB in Aaron Rodgers that the attack has great wide receivers he can trust his release and also have a good OL to protect him well, saying that the attack of the Packers who is very good but with the injury of their leading rusher the main weapon for this game will be the passing game despite the backup rusher not be too bad. Defending the Green Bay Packers is for me one of the best in the NFL in both rushing game to stop the passing game as the opponent.

Having said all this I see great value in the Green Bay Packers logo for the night, both teams will certainly opt for the long passing game and will rarely use their rushing game and even as a MNF think the Green Bay Packers will soon leave the night As winner of the meeting and cover the handicap of -3.0 points.


Good Luck People
