[swifty]

Browns +4.5 (3 Units - Money Pick)


Injuries: RAVENS: OUT: OT Jonathan Ogden, DE/OLB Trevor Pryce, LB Dan Cody. BROWNS: OUT: OT Ryan Tucker, C LeCharles Bentley, LB Willie McGinest.

The following is a conversation that is likely to happen on Sunday NFL Countdown, which is actually my favorite pre-game show:

Chris Berman: Now, we'll talk about the Browns, who are playing well since they traded away Charlie "French" Frye. Tom Jackson: Hahahahahaha! Emmitt Smith: I thinks the Browns is gonna be the first teams to goes 0-16! Berman: Well, I guess the win over the Bengals sort of doesn't count then. What do you think, coach? Mike Ditka: Viagra Cialis Chicago Bears Ricky Williams Da Bears Viagra Viagra Chicago Cialis Ricky Williams Viagra. Berman: Now, let's hear from our 10-year-old correspondent! Little Kid: Me went poopy in pants!

Speaking of "poopy in pants," how do you think Browns kicker Phil Dawson felt when his converted field goal was nullified by a Raiders time out? It's hard to imagine that Cleveland was a kick away from being 2-1. The team's doing much better than I expected; Derek Anderson, despite his horrendous completion percentage of 52, is managing games well; he has seven touchdowns to just four picks, and has only been sacked twice. Jamal Lewis is averaging 5.8 yards per carry. Kellen Winslow and Braylon Edwards continue to improve on a weekly basis. That said, I'm not sure if the Browns can score on Baltimore's defense. The Ravens are third against the run, so Lewis won't have nearly as much success on the ground as he did versus Cincinnati and Oakland. Anderson will be asked to beat Baltimore's secondary, which is a far cry from managing a game.

While Baltimore excels at stopping opposing ground attacks, Cleveland simply cannot contain them. The Browns are ranked 25th in that category. Look for a big day from Willis McGahee, who will eclipse the century mark for the first time in a purple-and-gold uniform (he had 97 and 98 yards against the Jets and Cardinals, respectively.) McGahee will set up play-action opportunities for the Steve McNair-Kyle Boller platoon. Either quarterback will have all day to throw; the Browns have managed a meager four sacks in three contests. And if Boller has to play the majority of this game, I wouldn't worry to much. Excluding the red-zone interception he had at Cincinnati, Boller has been efficient; he has a remarkable completion percentage (64.7), he's not throwing any picks (just that one) and he has only taken two sacks.

All signs point to Baltimore in the Game department. Two stars in this section doesn't meant all that much, however (check stats at the bottom of the page.) The matchups are built into the spread, so we have to look for an edge to determine the correct side. The public is pounding the Ravens, who are coming off an emotional, last-second victory. Add in the fact that the home team has dominated this series (Baltimore lost in Cleveland in 2005 and barely won, 15-14 in 2006), and the Browns are starting to look like a solid play. Maybe Matt Stover will have to kick a game-winning field goal twice - and actually convert the second time around.

I am possibly the worst NFL hanicapper in the history of mankind. So, as a public service, here are 3 I'm playing today:

San Diego -11.5 (1.1 units to win 1 unit)
Minnesota +105
NY Giants +120


Good luck to everyone today.

[tblues2005]

I think my best bet today is Dallas at -13. Rams will be happy to score 10 points today.

I like Indianapolis -10 today, Denver hasn't been playing that great so far this year and they have gotten hit hard by the injury bug too.
My upset pick is Cleveland at +4, they could give Baltimore problems. I think Minnesota could give Green Bay problems also.

[icemantbi]

Dallas -12
San Fran +1
Pitt -6
Denver +10

[bigdog3580]

Arizona +5 1/2. They have enough offense to keep it close. Another sold out stadium. Hopefully no Hines Ward. AZ has played all 3 games this season with a final score within 3 points either way. I see this game as no different than those.

Again take AZ PLUS the 5 1/2.

[tblues2005]

bigdog,

I think your got a good selection there too, Arizona should play tough at home today.
