Seattle -8 over New Orleans 

The Saints narrowly escaped the Eagles and their awful defense last week. There is no way they hang in there with the Seahawks whether Russell Wilson has been struggling of late or not. 

New England -7.5 over Indianapolis 

Everyone is taking the points with the Colts this week, but it feels like a bit of an overreaction to last weeks comeback. They still aren't that good of a football team. The Chiefs got injured and gave that thing away. Bill and Brady won't allow that to happen, especially not at home. The Colts can't run the ball so they can't attack the Patriots biggest weakness and they can't stop an intermural flag football team on defense. The Pats are going to get out to an early lead and never look back, winning by double digits. 

Carolina +3 over San Francisco 

Are the 49ers really six points better than the Panthers? I know Steve Smith isn't 100% but that defense is outstanding. This game should look like all those great Steelers/Ravens games and it should be the best game of the week. 

San Diego +9 over Denver

Maybe it isn't likely, but there is absolutely a chance that the Chargers go into Denver and win again. As long as they don't make mistakes they should be able to hang around. The Chargers love to run the ball and control the clock. They can keep Manning on the sideline and reduce the number of possessions. Their goal, like last week, was to keep it low scoring and just to hang around until the fourth quarter. Also, keep in mind that Peyton has never been great in the playoffs or the cold.
