And so on we go... Atlanta at Philadelphia Philly by 18 ! 24:6 Cleveland at Cincinnati Bengals by 4 * 24:20 * Dallas at Washington Redskins by 3 * 27:24 Detroit at Chicago Bears by 18 ! 27:9 Green Bay at Minnesota Vikings by 11 21:10 Houston at Buffalo Houston by 7 17:10 Indianapolis at New England Pats by 11 17:6 LA Raiders at San Diego LA by 10 27:17 LA Rams at NY Giants Giants by 3 16:13 NY Jets at Miami Dolphins by 4 * 24:20 * Pittsburgh at Kansas City Pitt by 11 21:10 St. Louis at Tampa Bay Cards by 4 24:20 Seattle at New Orleans Hawks by 10 27:17 San Francisco at Denver Broncos by 3 27:24 Cleveland's defense and Cincinnati's offense offset each other fairly well, and the Browns offense and Cin's D have shown themselves fairly weak. To my mind, this game is fairly evenly matched, so I went with the home team. I seem to have bad luck with these "evenly matched" games. One of them always seems to prove to be a surprise, and wipes out the other. Chances are that Cleveland will come on strong, but I stand by my pick (Why? Temporary insanity? I don't know...). Dallas wiped up the floor with Washington during the first week of the season. Washington is itching for vengeance. Too, this a division where it is very difficult to beat the same team twice in one season. I picked it to be close, but Washington will pull it out (I hope). Watch for a hot game with quite a few penalties, however. This rivalry runs deep! Miami is looking better than they did earlier in the season. Too, they have a great record in the Orange Bowl this season. This, too, will be a close game, but I think Miami has the edge this time. I had a great week last week, so let's see if I can keep this streak going! Robert A. Ekblaw
