Discuss the Week 9 Games You're NOT Sure Of (1 Viewer)

[SeniorVBDStudent]

I have Baltimore at Cleveland, Green Bay at Tenn, and Miami at Denver as difficult to predict without looking at Vegas lines.

I've got Cleveland, Green Bay, and Denver pencilled in as winners.

Cleveland has a defense that is starting to show up more than in early season, and I like their homefield advantage in this game.

Indy failed to execute in the passing game to the extent that I think Green Bay will be able to vs Tennessee.

I'm doubting that Denver's season will be flushed and that their recent under-performance will turn around against Miami.

Care to rip apart these conclusions? What other Week 9 games are tough calls to you?

I don't think GB will be able to stop TEN offense. I do think TEN will be able to stop GB. At TEN...easy winner

I do like DEN coming off the bye at home vs. MIA

I also agree with you on the CLE game

The Texans are incredibly underrated. They beat MIN on the road.Atlanta is performing like a legitimate football team; Oakland is not. Atlanta on the road.

Titans with a short week, and I just think they are due for a loss.

Maybe one of those Collins games where he has three picks?

Houston is 0-3 on the road scoring 18.7 ppg and giving up 33 ppgATL is 1-3 on the road scoring 14.8 ppg and giving up 24.8 ppgbut looking at the schedule they have all been pretty tough road games....hmmmmm...I'm still up in the air

The Texans have 3 wins, all at home. The combined record of those 3 opponents is 3-19. I think they find it much tougher this week in Minnesota.Atlanta has won 2 games by more than 3 points. The combined record of those 2 opponents is 1-13. They've struggled on the road thus far as pointed out above. The Raiders however are terrible and probably don't do much to stop the Falcons.

Both the Texans and Falcons have improved exponentially from earlier in the year. In particular, the Texans are a solid football team. The Falcons get the nod because Oakland is in disarray.

I can't decide who'll win the Texans/Vikings either. I'm leaning towards the Texans because the Indy & Jax games were both very winnable for the Texans. One was an OT loss and the other was the epic Sage meltdown. Houston's offense is firing on all cylinders (currently #5 in passing, #11 in rushing) but the D is questionable. Only KC has allowed more rushing TDs. I think it'll come down to the wire.
