First-look thoughts:

With Kordell no longer QB, and perhaps now a WR, that's a double bonus for the Steelers. Maybe 10.5 is too many points for a conservative Jacksonville team.

Dallas looks enticing as a dog to the Pats, but this might be a circle-the-wagons game for Carroll.

Indy a dog to Miami? What has Miami done to deserve this? I'll take the Colts, who want revenge for the garbage Miami comeback earlier in the year.

K.C. a dog at Denver is interesting, but I don't know why.

I really like Minnesota as a small favorite at Tampa. Tampa's D is due for a comeuppance, and starting a rookie QB is the icing on the cake.

This weeks pick.... with Jags Taylor likely not to play, Jags run defense pretty good, Steelers offense in shambles, Jags opening up the passing offense i go with

Jaguars v Steelers under 217.5 yards rushing.

No other pick really feels quite as solid, though Indy, Chicago, Baltimore, and Seattle were are tempting.
