Really ??? Got some money on that somewhere ? Hope you got good odds if you do (could be a big payback),
- although you are not alone with thinking upset in this game.

EDIT TO ADD: tomorrow I am cheering for Steelers (don't think the Broncos can pull it off) and Giants (Eli's coming).

Do you think Denver may focus on Ben Roethlisberger left ankle. If Pittsburgh has weakness that would be it, not to intentional injury but to take him off his game.

Maybe - but I suspect the Steelers defence may also be too good for the Broncos offence.
(Houston/Cincinnati pretty close so far)

I suspect that as well just pointing out a possible area's of weakness.

Close games take-on an interesting last half of 4 quarter. Enjoy Steven.

IMO it will be close game, but Ravens will move-on. But "On any given Day, anything can & will happen"
Next-up Lions vs Saints I'm still of the opinion of up-set. Just a gut feeling or the chilly I had for lunch. LOL

Guess it was chilly so 1 for 2, Sunday's games.
NYG & Pittsburgh Steelers will win.

It will be a tougher game, but I'll be putting my money on the Saints. They looked unstoppable last night.
p.s. did you see that interception to close the half in the Texans' game ?

I actually did not watch any games beside early hockey game yesterday.
Added: NYG vs GB this could be good or really bad.
