Lock:

Kansas City Chiefs (-10) over Oakland Raiders

This spread may seem a little high, especially since Oakland put together a few decent games over the last month, but Kansas City was on a three-week tear before Sunday’s setback in Miami. Larry Johnson should bounce back against a Raiders team that is one quarterback switch away from securing the first overall pick in the 2007 draft (no offense, Aaron Brooks).

Upset Special:

Atlanta Falcons (+4) over Baltimore Ravens

This upset special isn’t that much of a stretch, especially after Tennessee exposed all of Baltimore’s weaknesses last Sunday, but this is more of a protest pick than anything else. Did L.J. really choose Chicago over New York in a pick ’em game as his upset last week? Would picking the Giants have counted as an upset, too? I think I’m being taken advantage of because I’m playing this game from London.

Game 1:

New England Patriots (-6) over Green Bay Packers

Tom Brady may have class, poise and a Visa card, but the 29-year-old still has a lot to learn from legend Brett Favre on Sunday, such as what it’s like to be surrounded by a bunch of vagabonds.

Game 2:

Pittsburgh Steelers (-3 1/2) over Cleveland Browns

Pittsburgh is playing at Cleveland and this game isn’t going to be televised on Sunday night! What a travesty NBC has done to this rivalry. Steelers by 44.
