Yes the Miami Dolphins, the team with only one win last year and hadn't one a game this year until today. The Patriots got embarrased on their own turf falling 38-13. The offense just never seemed to get any rhythm, and the defense looked confused with the Dolphins throwing different looks at them. Sending Pennington out as a reciever and direct snapping the ball to Ronnie Brown. Ronnie Brown had a career day rushing for 113 yards 4 rushing TD's and 1 passing TD.

Thigpen is not the answer for the Chiefs although he didnt look bad last week.

Bills (-9.5) over Raiders

    Say good bye to Lane Kiffin. Bills are a playoff team with their great special teams and Trent Edwards is playing good football. If you want to see Defensive low scoring running and short passing game then this would be a great game to watch.

Titans (-4.5) over Texans

    Believe the hype about Chris Johnson 4.24 40 speed all he needs is a small gap and he is gone. He is a real gamechanger and the Titans are really solid on defense.
