Favre will throw 3 interceptions to Palamalu alone. Vikings winning is risky.

Texans are an enigma. They can lose to lowly Jacksonville at home, but then handle the Bengals on the road. I'd usually just avoid them, but if the moneyline or spread is too big in their favor, I can see taking a shot against them. Throwing it on a parlay though, I don't know. You should be grateful if the 9ers win and take the money from that alone. Who knows what San Fran is? They look dominant in stopping the Vikes and scoring insane defensive points on St Louis, only to get bitchslapped by the Falcons. Houston is capable of doing the same offensively.

A lot of things working against the Vikes in this game. They are finally on the road against a very tough opponent and have won two games they should have lost(Baltimore and San Fran). Karma just seems to dictate they lose this game. Personally, I don't think it will be close.

I was thoroughly unimpressed by the Falcons Sunday night against the Bears. Maybe it was just a bad night though. I see the Cowboys winning this one, but it's got the best chance of being right.

I hate betting on/against the Texans. So unpredictable.
I would stay away from picking the Vikes > Steelers @home.
I like ATL > Dallas. Dallas has been so overrated by oddsmakers its insane. I dont understand why they do it every week.

Dallas gave 6-0 Denver all they could handle at Mile High. They had a letdown against KC and still won though. I'm not a Cowboys fan, but I don't think they are getting ridiculous odds. I'm still not convinced about the Falcons defense, especially with theri Chicago performance. I could see the Cowboys moving the ball over them

Not a bad parlay. Gore is back and healthy so he should help the niners... but the Texans could beat almost anyone on any given week if Schaub comes to play.

I think it's worth a shot. $50 isn't a huge deal and the payoff is great when all 3 teams have a great shot to win.

Im just not impressed by Dallas in any way. If they are as good as everyone in the media makes them out to be they shouldnt be in OT games with one of the worst teams in the league.

Their D is garbage and Romo is too inconsistent.

texans along with jacksonville are the streakiest teams in the league. i dont touch games involving them. i predict a big week for romo off the bye. but the vikings will cruise with brett and AD
