Not particularly a thursday night thriller, but the great thing about this holiday season is that instead of conversing with my family on christmas and christmas eve, instead I will be immersed in football and will be able to avoid any of those boring conversations such as how is work going, or the blanket whats new question. Hooray Football.
5. Indianapolis Colts (- 9 1/2) at Houston Texans
The Colts appeared to have regained their momentum after their impressive monday night showing while the Texans seemingly get worse every single week. David Carr has lost his confidence and is continually making poor decisions. I expect the the Colts to pound the Texans in similar fashion as did the Pats last week.
4. Atlanta Falcons (-6 1/2) vs. Carolina Panthers
The Panthers are a dead carcuss while the Falcons control their destiny. Coming off the beatdown at home that the Panthers had last week the might as well not show up for any of the remainder of the games this season. The Falcons play much better at home than they do on the road, and I expect Vick to have back to back solid weeks.
3. Chicago Bears (-4 1/2) at Detroit Lions
Yes I do know that the Bears have locked everything up and that this game is pretty much meaningless to them, but fact it is very meaningful to the Lions. Lose and you're one game away from Brady Quinn. Yes that's right, you hold the tie-breaker over the Raiders because of the fact you play in a worse division and have a worse opponents winning %. Keep on losin in the Motor City.
2. Philadelphia Eagles (+6 1/2) at Dallas Cowboys
I see no reason to doubt the Eagles, they keep on winning and they even have proven themselves on the road within the division with Jeff Garcia. I'm not saying that I fully expect them to win this game, just think it will be a hard fought down to the wire type game and that 6 1/2 is way too many points to give to the Romoboys.
1. Baltimore Ravens (+3 1/2) at Pittsburgh Steelers
McNair has returned to the practice field and thus should suit up for this weekends matchup. Right now the Steelers would like nothing more than to knock off their divisional opponents in the final weeks of the season but the Ravens have too much to play for this weekend, and will come focused and force Three Day Old Cheeseburger to make the mistakes which have put the Steelers at 7-7 this season.

Arizona (+3 1/2) at San Francisco ... Bounce back for Leinart

Cincinnati (+2 1/2) at Denver ... Sucker for Cincy
New York Jets (+2 1/2) at Miami ... Homer Pick
