Houston Texans vs. New York Jets (-1.5)
This line caught me by surprise. Although it's hard to envision the Jets at 2-7, I can't pick them to take down this Houston team.

Prediction: Houston 23, New York Jets 20

New England Patriots vs. Tennessee Titans (-3.5)
The hook gives me a strong lean toward the Patriots in this clash. They can keep this thing close with their defense.

Prediction: Tennessee 20, New England 17
Denver Broncos vs. Baltimore Ravens (-9.5)
As much as I've been impressed with the Denver Broncos, taking on the Baltimore Ravens after a loss to Cleveland isn't a good recipe for success.

Prediction: Baltimore 30, Denver 16

Las Vegas Raiders vs. Cincinnati Bengals (-7.5)
The Bengals offense needs to make another statement in this matchup after a difficult showing vs. Philadelphia last week. The Raiders won't put up much of a fight.

Prediction: Cincinnati 30, Las Vegas 13

Los Angeles Chargers (-1.5) vs. Cleveland Browns
As good as the Cleveland Browns looked last week, it's going to be difficult to replicate that success again vs. this Chargers team.

Prediction: Los Angeles Chargers 23, Cleveland 18
Miami Dolphins vs. Buffalo Bills (-6.5)
Miami's offense had a chance to get back into a rhythm last week. The Buffalo Bills are a much bigger challenge than Miami faced vs. Arizona. The Bills run the AFC East.

Prediction: Buffalo 30, Miami 23
Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Philadelphia Eagles (-7.5)
As good as Philadelphia looked last week vs. Cincinnati, I think this is a prime let down spot against a Jacksonville team that needs a good effort.

Prediction: Philadelphia 24, Jacksonville 20
Indianapolis Colts vs. Minnesota Vikings (-5.5)
There's too much noise surrounding the Indianapolis Colts for my liking right now. The Vikings respond in a big way after suffering two losses in a row.

Prediction: Minnesota 30, Indianapolis 22
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Kansas City Chiefs (-8.5)
Even with Kansas City's offense struggling to find consistency, the same can't be said for their defense. That's the difference on Monday night.

Prediction: Kansas City 23, Tampa Bay 13
