    Jasper’s Prediction:
    Indianapolis Colts Beat Point Spread and I take the Over

    Location:
    LP Field, Nashville, Tennessee

    Date:
    Sunday October 11, 2009 at 8:20pm

    Pre-Game:
    This is predicted to be a better in-division AFC South game than people think with the point spread at only 3.5. In my opinion, this is a great game to place a bet on at your favorite betting website with the point spread listed. I don’t anyone would have predicted the Colts being 4-0 and the Titans 0-4. The Colts are one of only a few teams remaining to have an undefeated record in the NFL, as well as the Titans being 0-4. The Titans home field advantage will play a big role in this game.

    Colts:
    The Indianapolis Colts are coming off a solid showing against the Seattle Seahawks last week beating them 34-17 on their home field. Payton Manning threw for 353 yards, 2 TDs and 1 INT against the Seahawks. He is leading all quarterbacks with 1,336 yards passing. If Payton keeps throwing like he has been, look out Tennessee!

    Titans:
    The Titans are coming off a great season from last year, but they have completely fallen apart thus far for this year. If they lose this game to the Colts, the playoffs will most likely be out of sight. I believe this game is predicted to be close because the Titans know this is a must win for them. Running back Chris Johnson has been having a great season leading all running backs with 434 rushing yards. Tennessee lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars last week 37-17 in Jacksonville. Kerry Collins is going to have to step up his game if the Titans want to have a chance at winning this game. He has thrown more interceptions, 6, than touchdowns, 5, this season.

    Colts vs Titans Prediction:
    This game is a must win for Tennessee. They are playing on their home field against a rival team in their division. If Collins throws for more touchdowns than interceptions this game it could be close. However, in the end I predict Payton Manning to have another great game on Sunday Night against the Titans. He will be too much to handle for Tennessee’s defense and the Colts win by a large margin.

    Jasper’s Prediction:

    Pittsburgh Steelers Don’t Beat Point Spread and I take the Under

    Location:
    Heinz Field, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

    Sunday October 4, 2009 at 8:20pm

    Pre-Game:
    Something’s got to give this game. Although the Chargers are 2-1, both teams could easily be the most disappointing teams thus far in the NFL. Most experts never would have guessed that they have a combined record of 3-3 going into week 4.

    The Chargers did beat the Miami Dolphins last week 23-13 in San Diego, and the Steelers lost another 3 point game to the Cincinnati Bengals, 23-20 in Cinci. Star running back LaDainian Tomlinson is looking to play this Sunday Night for the first time since week 1 after suffering an ankle injury. Check the injury report on this game before betting on your desired online betting sites.

    Chargers:

    The San Diego Chargers are coming off a good win against the Dolphins. The Chargers are desperately hoping LaDainian will be healthy for this important game against the Super Bowl Champs, since they are currently ranked 2nd to last in total rushing yards at 66.3 yards per game. However, Phillip Rivers is leading all quarterbacks in the NFL in passing yards with 991.

    Steelers:

    If the Steelers want to win this game Ben Rothlisberger needs to step us his game. Although he is fifth in passing yards at 860, he has thrown only 3 TDs along with 4 INTs. Not the numbers you want as a quarterback if you are looking to win back-to-back Super Bowls. The Steelers defense has been playing pretty well even with the loss of their star defenseman Troy Polamalu. I believe he is still questionable for this game, but trust me, the Steelers are eagerly waiting his return.

    Chargers vs Steelers Prediction:

    In my opinion, this is an extremely important game for both teams, and more so for the Steelers. If the Steelers lose it will put them at 1-3, and making it very difficult for them to even make the playoffs. If LaDainian Tomlinson is healthy and plays well, the Chargers could easily win this game, especially if Polamalu is still out with his injury. Nonetheless, Pittsburgh is 1-0 at home and are always extremely tough to beat on their own turf. I foresee Rothlisberger stepping up in this game and playing like a Super Bowl Champion quarterback should be. If Tomlinson plays, I don’t see him having a good game against the Steelers defense. In the end, it’s going to be a very close and low scoring game and I am surprised to see the point spread as wide as it is at 6.5. Steelers win.

    Jasper’s Prediction:

    Pittsburgh Steelers Don’t Beat Point Spread and I take the Under
