Game of the Week: Denver Broncos (2-2) at Baltimore Ravens (3-1)
Synopsis: Last year the Ravens beat the Broncos 30-7 and held them to only 200 yards. But this year I think we are in for a good game.
Game: Last time the Ravens held the Broncos to 200 yards. Thus far this year the Broncos have an average of 2.2 rushing yards per carry this year. While the running game might be shot the passing game isn't with Orton possibly becoming the first person to attempt 700 passes in a season which in all is actually a curse. The Ravens are going to stop the run early to force a predictable pass game. If that happens the Ravens defense will take an early control of the game making a long day for Denver.
Other Good Games: Kansas City Chiefs (3-0) at Indianapolis Colts (2-2), Minnesota Vikings (1-2) at New York Jets (3-1)
Dogs of the Week: St. Louis Rams (2-2) at Detroit Lions (0-4)
Synopsis: For the 40th consecutive time the Rams are underdogs even though they beat the lions for their only win that season.
Game: Back-up QB Shaun Hill is the starter for Detroit. With an impressive stand against tough teams thus far the Lions always seem to fall up short. The Rams coming off their best start in a couple of seasons are looking to take the division with a win here and an Arizona loss. Bradford looks good and Jackson should be healthy but the real question is "Is the St. Louis defense better than a Detroit back-up QB offense?" Yes! The Rams are third with fewest points allowed behind Kansas City and Minnesota who both didn't play last week. Though many predict the Lions to win this should be an easy game for the Rams.
Other Dogs: Jacksonville Jaguars (2-2) at Buffalo Bills (0-4)
