Pittsburgh Steelers (2-5) at New England Patriots (6-2) The Steelers once again came up flat as non-divisional road favorites last week, losing in Oakland, a situation they are now 6-18 ATS since Mike Tomlin took over in 2007.

Last week: 1 (+0) Record: 7-1 The Seahawks were pretty flat in St. Louis this week, but they’ve been so good this season it’s hard to hold it against them. They return home this week where they should blow out the Buccaneers. With the exception of a home game against…

Last week: 2 (+0) Record: 7-1 Peyton Manning threw 3 interceptions against the Redskins, matching his total from his first 7 games, but that was bound to happen. His level of play from earlier this season was simply unsustainable, even for him. Still, Manning played well and so did the…

Last week: 4 (-2) Record: 6-2 It needs to be said. Tom Brady looks more like a former 6th round pick than a 3-time Super Bowl winner this year. ProFootballFocus’ grades him out as the 24th ranked passing quarterback out of 37 eligible. I thought it would get better when…
