Green Bay -3.5 at Detroit:
Detroit's strength is it's passing game and they should struggle trying to throw the ball against Green Bay's phenomenal secondary. Al Harris and Charles Woodson will shut down the passing game all day, while Green Bay's DEs should have no trouble putting pressure on Kitna all day long. Brett Favre is throwing the ball well and with Ryan Grant sparking the Packers running game, the Lions have no chance of stopping this potent offence.
Take Green Bay -3.5
New York at Dallas -14.5
I don't like stopping more than two touchdowns with anyone other than the Patriots, but I don't see how the Jets are going to keep up with the Cowboys passing game without wide receiver Laveranues Coles. Kellen Clemens is going to have to play a very good game without his best offensive weapon and I don't see that happening. Look for Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Ware to put pressure on Clemens and for Dallas to beat the Jets badly.
Take Dallas -14.5
Indianapolis -12.5 at Atlanta
The Colts and the Packers probably have the two best defences in the NFL right now. Having Joey Harrington at QB and going up against one of the NFL's best defences is not a good thing. Look for the Colts defence to make the Falcons look silly and for the Colts offence to embarass the Falcons defence all night long. Indy will be without Marvin Harrison again, but don't expect them to miss him much, as Joseph Addai, Reggie Wayne, Dallas Clark and Anthony Gonzalez should be more than they need in order to eat the Falcons alive on Thanksgiving Thursday night.
Take Indianapolis -12.5
