Vikings (-3 1/2) over Jets. Gang Green is putting things together but too young to be. consistent.Sam Darnold is starting to look like a legitimate franchise QB.
Panthers and Vikings covered, the Jaguars didn't. Sunday YTD 11-9.

Thursday Night Football for Week 8 has the Miami Dolphins traveling to Houston to clash with the Texans.The lines are Houston by 7 1/2 with an over/under of 44 1/2.Houston is trending upward, the Fins are trending downward.I'm just not sure the Texans ,who have won 4 in a row,are a 5 in a row type, especially since Miami is a fringe playoff candidate.One aspect of the game being built up is a "revenge" factor as the Texans signed current Dolphins QB Brock Osweiler who was given a big contract by Houston as a free agent,then had almost immediate buyers remorse.Then the next year, the Texans gave the Browns a second round draft choice to take Osweiler's contract off their hands.Not sure that will be a real factor.Both teams feature a good pass rush,so scoring could be low.I will take Miami to cover that number,although Houston should win.I'll also take the under,although I think I'm 0-3 on the under so far. You know what they say about the broken clock!

YTD 7-6-1 ( Win, 3-3-1,O/U 4-3)

For Sunday

Rams (-8) vs. Packers
Jets (+ 9 1/2) at Bears
Seahawks (+3) at Lions

Sunday YTD. 11-9-0

Not part of my predictions, but Buffalo on MNF vs. the Patriots is the first double digit home dog this season(Pats favored by 14).Tempting but the Bills are a mess.

They may not be winning many games, but you have to give the Bills credit for having the holiday spirit.

Tonight, the entire team all dressed up as football players!

Wow.....Marv Levy.....93 years old.
I bet he could still coach, too.

Nice to see Thurman Thomas getting his jersey retired.
He's a big player in the local community.
One of the best things about small market franchises.

Browns head coach Hue "3-36-1" Jackson was the first NFL coach fired this year.Interesting that first year OC Todd Haley was also let go at the same time as it's rare a coordinator gets the heave-ho mid season, especially a first year guy.Those two had a power struggle and they both lost.

Cleveland has a lot of good young talent, mucho cap space, extra draft picks and most importantly, a potential franchise QB.That's going to be an attractive head coaching job next year.
