1: Tennessee Titans (7-1 ATS, 8-0 SU) (LW: 1) Though the Titans were knocked from the ranks of the unbeaten ATS teams, the ’72 Dolphins had to keep the corks on the champagne bottles when K Rob Bironas booted the game-winning field goal in overtime to give them a 19-16 victory over the Pack. They should be tested next week against the Bears, a team they are 0-2 ATS against since ’98.
Next Up: Away @ Bears (-3)

 

2: New York Giants (6-2 ATS, 7-1 SU) (LW: 2) New York used its chance to kick their rivals from Dallas to the curb and did so in a major way. The G-Men crushed the Cowboys, 35-14, and have now covered three straight spreads. They’re getting no respect in Philadelphia next week as three-point underdogs, and that’s good news for Giants bettors. The champs have covered seven straight when installed as underdogs.
Next Up: Away @ Eagles (+3)

 

3: Arizona Cardinals (6-2 ATS, 5-3 SU) (LW: 3) The Cards covered their fourth straight spread and opened up a commanding three-game lead in the NFC West when they crushed the Rams, 34-13. They’ve outscored their L/3 divisional opponents by a combined score of 105-45 and are a perfect 3-0 ATS during that stretch
Next Up: Home vs. 49ers (-9.5)

 

4: Baltimore Ravens (6-2 ATS, 5-3 SU) (LW: 4) Baltimore was an 8-1 underdog to win the AFC North at the start of the season, and it took a huge step in the right direction by beating Cleveland 37-27 last week. The Ravens will be fighting the odds again this weekend, as they are 2-9 SU and 0-11 ATS in their L/11 against the AFC South.
Next Up: Away @ Texans (+1)

 

5: Philadelphia Eagles (6-2 ATS, 5-3 SU) (LW: 5) The Eagles have been flying under the radar over the past few weeks, but they covered their third straight by beating the Seahawks 26-7 at Qwest Field. They need to figure out their divisional opponents if they’re going to make the playoffs though, as the green and white are just 3-6 SU and ATS in their L/9 against the NFC East.
Next Up: Home vs. Giants (-3)

 

6: Atlanta Falcons (5-3 ATS, 5-3 SU) (LW: 7) You can’t do it much better than the Falcons did it in Oakland last weekend. They pounded the hapless Raiders 24-0 to move to 5-1 SU and ATS against non-NFC South foes. The bad news is that Atlanta is 0-2 SU and ATS against the South and has four of their next six in division.
Next Up: Home vs. Saints (+1)

 

7: Miami Dolphins (5-3 ATS, 4-4 SU) (LW: 13) Miami moved within a game of the AFC East lead in Denver on Sunday, beating the Broncos 26-17. They’ve got a critical three-game homestand on deck and should stay competitive for a playoff spot for several more weeks.
Next Up: Home vs. Seahawks (-9.5)

 

8: Cleveland Browns (5-3 ATS, 3-5 SU) (LW: 6) Cleveland bettors have had a successful run this year in spite of the Browns’ 37-27 loss at home to Baltimore. QB Brady Quinn will get his first career start for Cleveland next week. The offense hasn’t been the problem of late though, as the unit has averaged 24 points per game since their bye week.
Next Up: Home vs. Broncos (-3.5)

 

9: Green Bay Packers (5-3 ATS, 4-4 SU) (LW: 14) Green Bay might’ve lost to the Titans last week, but they became the first team to cover against them, when they lost in OT 19-16. This week will mark the fourth straight game the Pack find themselves installed as underdogs.
Next Up: Away @ Vikings (+1)

 

10: New Orleans Saints (5-3 ATS, 4-4 SU) (LW: 11) Question marks are surrounding the Saints, who now find themselves in last place in the AFC South and facing almost a must-win situation in Atlanta this week. They’re just 3-6 ATS in their L/9 divisional clashes.
Next Up: Away @ Falcons (-1)

 

11: Chicago Bears (4-3-1 ATS, 5-3 SU) (LW: 8 ) The Bears' defense let down Chicago bettors yet again, giving up 23 points to the lowly Lions in their 27-23 victory in the “Windy City.” It wasn’t nearly enough to cover the 12.5-point spread, and marked the fourth consecutive ATS defeat for Chicago as favorites of at least eight points.
Next Up: Home vs. Titans (+3)
