Oakland looked better than San Francisco last week so I'll take Oakland at +3.5.

 

[-OZ-]

I'll go with Detroit at -6.5 (although it's so tempting to swing for the fences with Miami)

 

[Wheelhouse]

I'll take Tampa Bay. I think Gruden will have his troops ready. Who knows, maybe Gradkowski can play?

 

[Carter_Can_Fly]

At this point Dallas seems like a good bet against an injury depleted team in Philly.

Westbrook

Stallworth

Brown

Kearse

to name a few.

 

[Timmay]

Tampa Bay over the Saints. First win finally for the Bucs.

Somebody did it in the past but I didn't see anybody doing it this year so I just started it back up last week.

Tampa by a fair margin

If I can be counted in last week, I picked Houston to upset Miami. I believe I posted a few separate places iterating that... I'll see if I can find it real quick.

Houston pick from Week 4

Sorry, it had to be in last week's thread to count. Otherwise you could post 5 different upsets in 5 different threads and link to the one that actually happened.

Some support for those picks.

If I had to pick one, I'll say Buffalo. That chance at 11 points is tempting.

 

[GDogg]

Detroit.
