BUFFALO -2.0 AT $1.91 (CENTREBET)
The Bills might be the real deal this year. They were excellent the last two weeks and can beat a San Diego side that may have blown all its energies v Seattle. Buffalo have covered 8 of 10 at home. Buffalo are not getting the respect they deserve.
CLEVELAND +2.0 AT $1.88 (SPORTSBET)
Baltimore have not covered five straight divisional road games while the Browns have actually looked pretty solid this year, even with some key injuries. The Ravens are in a big letdown situation to boot.
CHICAGO +3.0 AT $1.79 (SPORTSBET)
The Jets can’t be feeling good after last week’s blown lead. The Bears will follow the template of the Packers comeback and throw long and throw deep. Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery are up for big games.

MINNESOTA @ NEW ORLEANS: 1 UNIT ON NEW ORLEANS -10.0 AT $1.91 (CENTREBET)
No Adrian Peterson (and rightfully so) on the road, against a Saints’ line-up who are 0-2 are need a win and will have the desperation dialled right up in the dome? There’s every chance that Drew Brees throws for 4 TDs this week.
TENNESSEE @ CINCINNATI: 1 UNIT ON CINCINNATI -6.5 AT $1.91 (CENTREBET)
He continues to be highly unfashionable, but Andy Dalton takes care of business at home against mediocre sides. And last Sunday’s performance at home against the Cowboys was no better than mediocre…
SAN DIEGO @ BUFFALO: 1 UNIT ON BUFFALO -2.0 AT $1.91 (CENTREBET)
Nothing has changed since last week. I still don’t care if you start with 5 straight wins, Bills – there is no way I’m dropping my guard before the traditional kick to the teeth arrives. Also, a West Coast team playing at 10am Pacific Time remains a red flag.
