Week Eight Predictions

Early Games	Question	Prediction	Why
NY Giants Miami	Can the Giants make a smooth transition overseas and beat the winless Dolphins?	27-10 Giants	The Dolphins lost their biggest offensive threat in RB Ronnie Brown; Giants will attack injured LB core of Dolphins
Pittsburgh Cincinnati	Can the Steelers bounce back from an embarrassing loss to the Broncos and beat a team on the road, showing they are in the AFC elite?	31-20 Steelers	Willie Parker will run wild against injured Bengals linebackers, and TE Heath Miller will have a big day; Kenny Watson won't be able to find any holes
Detroit Chicago	Can Brian Grisie and the Bears offense continue to play well, and can the Bears defense stop the talented Lion's offense?	24-17 Lions	Even though the Lions offense has been struggling, Jon Kitna will have a big day, and Brian Grisie will make a critical mistake at some time
Indianapolis Carolina	Can the Colts survive this somewhat trap game leading up to the showdown against the Pats?	24-9 Colts	Vinny Testeverde will be devoured by this stout Indy secondary, and Peyton and co. will have their way with the Panthers defense, even without Harrison
Cleveland St. Louis	Can the Browns continue their hot streak, and can the Rams find a way to finally win?	13-7 Rams	I think this will be a sloppy game, and the Browns will be brought down from the .500 mark
Oakland Tennessee	Can Vince Young make plays and not turn the ball over in his comeback game?	20-10 Titans	Vince Young will play okay, which is all he needs to do against the Raiders
Philadelphia Minnesota	Can go back into form after a very tough loss to the Bears, and can the Vikings actually give Adrian Peterson the ball?	17-13 Vikings	Adrian Peterson will have a big day and get more carries, and McNabb and the Eagles offense will continue to struggle
Late Games
Jacksonville Tampa Bay	Can the Jaguars and Buccaneers both bounce back after bad games?	17-6 Bucs	Quin Grey will have an awful day, and although the Bucs running game will once again be inexistent, the Bucs will win
Buffalo NY Jets	Can the Jets finally get something going and can the Bills build off their win last week against the Ravens?	21-20 Bills	The Jets offense will continue to sputter, and the Bills offense will do just enough to win
Houston San Diego	Can the Chargers get back to football after the stressful week with the fires?	34-21 Chargers	LT will have a great game, and him and Charger's offense will wear the Texan's defense down
New Orleans San Francisco	Can the Saints continue the momentum they have gotten from 2 straight wins?	24-7 Saints	Alex Smith coming back will do little to this bad 49er's offense
Washington New England	Can the Patriots survive this trap game before facing Indy?	38-13 Pats	Tom Brady and everyone else will continue to be unstoppable
Monday Night Game Green Bay Denver	Can the Packers beat a good team and can the Broncos build on last week's win?	27-21 Pack	In a very good, tight game Brett Farve will do enough to beat the broncos
