It's that time again. Tip time!


Head to Head Picks:
  • Steelers @ Titans (W)
  • Dolphins @ Vikings (W)
  • Cardinals @ Falcons (W)
  • Ravens @ Bengals (W)
  • Chiefs @ Browns (W)
  • Bears @ Cowboys (W)
  • Eagles (W) @ Lions
  • Bills @ Packers (W)
  • Buccaneers @ Panthers (W)
  • Seahawks @ Broncos (W)
  • Rams @ Raiders (W)
  • Texans @ Redskins (W)
  • Patriots (W) @ Jets
  • Jaguars @ Chargers (W)
  • Giants @ Colts (W)
  • Saints (W) @ 49ers


Survivor Pick for the week is the Packers. Looking to get the streak to 2 after last week's correct tip.




ATS Tips: (Against the Spread Tips) The team with the bracketed line is who I like to cover the spread.


5 Units
  • Cardinals @ Falcons (-6.5)
- I can just see the Falcons tearing through the Cardinals in their home opener. They'll be anxious to score early and often and will blow the Cards away. Note that the Cards are on the road for the 2nd straight week. The Cards just aren't that good this year.
  • Patriots (-2.5) @ Jets
- Tom Brady vs Mark Sanchez? I know who I'm taking every time. While Moss will get shut down by Revis, Brady just has too many other weapons at his disposal to nullify the Jets tough D. Plus, he hates the Jets. Pats by a decent amount here to cover the spread.


4 Units
  • Steelers @ Titans (-5)
- Although the steelers were strong in D last week, I can't see them completely shutting down Johnson and the scrambling Vince Young for the whole game in this one. And, this coupled with Dixon's fragility on the road for the Steelers will lead to a strong Titans victory.


3 Units
  • Dolphins (+5.5) @ Vikings
  • Eagles (-4.5) @ Lions
  • Bills @ Packers (-13)
  • Rams @ Raiders (-3.5)

2 Units
  • Jaguars (+8) @ Chargers

1 Unit
  • Ravens @ Bengals (+1.5)
  • Chiefs @ Browns (-1.5)
  • Bears @ Cowboys (-8.5)
  • Buccaneers @ Panthers (-3.5)
  • Texans @ Redskins (+3)
  • Giants (+5.5) @ Colts
  • Saints @ 49ers (+4.5)

0.5 Units
  • Seahwaks @ Broncos (-3.5)


Tough week but I like my heavier tips up the top this time round much more than last week. Any questions just hit me up at cam_crawford@msn.com



Good luck!
