Its the doubt from Albert the Great questionable in the middle for Tennessee, and the fact Vince Young, if he starts, will not be running anywhere fast.
San Diego has had some success against this D though. I still take the 8.5.

Fisher has a way of keeping things close
with the steady D, and avoiding big mistakes
on offense. Fisher uses Young perfectly. He does
not ask him to come through with big plays till the
4th quarter, if the Titans need them.

I now see the Titans have a bunch of starters
injured and out. Line makes more sense.

sorry! i was teasing 31 Lenths about the sweatshirts weeks ago.

Finally, what it's all about !

Do pushes count as a win, loss or indifferent?

Based on the posted lines, there will be no pushes.

Of course, some of the lines have moved since the initial post. I'll take the following:

Washington- new angle: go against any team that just gave up over 40 pts to a Chris Weinke QB'd team
Jville--like a fine wine, Taylor just gets better and better
Tampa--think the G-men shot their load in a big effort last week.
Tennessee---the big intangible is the huge coaching edge Tenn has here.

My picks in bold.

duh..how did I miss all those 1/2s..

Washington +4 1/2 Seattle
Jacksonville -1 1/2 Pittsburgh
NY Giants +2 1/2 Tampa Bay
Tennessee +8 1/2 San Diego

seattle
