Defense was the name of the game this week as even the Saints were held to under 30. Here is a brief recap of all the games.<\/p>\n<p>The following is a recap of each game\u2019s The Over\/Under was set at <a title=\"NFL Betting\" href=\"\/nfl\/\" target=\"_self\"><strong>NFL betting<\/strong><\/a> line and the actual results.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/handicappers\/\"><strong>LOOKING FOR THE BEST NFL HANDICAPPING EXPERTS ON THE PLANET? WE KNOW WHERE THEY ARE \u2014\u2013&gt;<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sunday, Sept. 27<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cleveland Browns at Baltimore Ravens<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 38.5 || Result 37 UNDER<\/p>\n<p>If the Browns had any kind of offense this game would have easily gone over. The Ravens scored 30+ points for the third straight week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pittsburgh Steelers at Cincinnati Bengals<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 37 || Result 43 OVER<\/p>\n<p>For the second week is a row the Bengals came from behind to pull off the upset. The game winning TD with 14 seconds left also pushed this game over 37.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Washington Redskins at Detroit Lions<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 38.5 || Result 33 UNDER<\/p>\n<p>The Lions finally end their 19 game losing streak with a win over the \u2018Skins. Washington\u2019s offense has some serious problems, especially inside the red zone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jacksonville Jaguars at Houston Texans<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 47.5 || Result 55 OVER<\/p>\n<p>The Jaguars were finally able to generate some offense to get their first win. Houston is a hard team to figure out as they are very inconsistent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>San Francisco 49ers at Minnesota Vikings<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 39 || Result 41 OVER<\/p>\n<p>Viking QB Brett Favre worked his magic to win the game in the last second with a desperation throw into the end zone that was snagged out the air by WR Greg Lewis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Atlanta Falcons at New England Patriots<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 47 || Result 36 UNDER<\/p>\n<p>The Patriots offense is not the same without WR Wes Welker, but Brady and Co. still found a way to get a win over a good Falcon team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kansas City Chiefs at Philadelphia Eagles<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 42 || Result 48 OVER<\/p>\n<p>A cheap Chief\u2019s TD late in the 4th quarter took this game total over as the Eagles\u2019 defense kept the pressure on Cassel all game long.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Green Bay Packers at St. Louis Rams<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 41 || Result 53 OVER<\/p>\n<p>The Rams were able to generate some offense for the first time all year, but turnovers proved to be very costly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New York Giants at Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 44.5  Result 24 UNDER<\/p>\n<p>After the Buc\u2019s scored 20+ points in their first two games, the Giants defense completely shut Tampa down as the under total was never in jeopardy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>New Orleans Saints at Buffalo Bills<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 52 || Result 34 UNDER<\/p>\n<p>The Bills were able to slow the Saints down holding Brees to 172 passing yards. The problem is they gave up 222 yards on the ground as New Orleans marched through their defense.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chicago Bears at Seattle Seahawks<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 37 || Result 44 OVER<a href=\"http:\/\/www.wgmg.co.cr\/aspx\/affiliateStoreClick.aspx?ID_SC=1445&amp;ID_I=408\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/banners.wgmg.co.cr\/aspx\/affiliateGetImage.aspx?ID_SC=1445&amp;ID_I=408\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Give the Seahawks credit for keeping this one close as they were missing quite a few starters including QB Matt Hasselbeck. Devin Hester was the big star for Chicago.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tennessee Titans at New York Jets<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 37 || Result 41 OVER<\/p>\n<p>The Jets defense came up big again shutting down Titans QB Kerry Collins in the second half of this game forcing him to throw 13 straight incomplete passes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Denver Broncos at Oakland Raiders<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 36.5 || Result 26 UNDER<\/p>\n<p>Denver\u2019s running game continues to look impressive as they amassed 215 yards on the ground against the Raiders. All the Broncos\u2019 games have gone under so far this season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Miami Dolphins at San Diego Chargers<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 44 || Result 36 UNDER<\/p>\n<p>Miami not only loses their third straight, they lose QB Chad Pennington for the season. Look for the Dolphin\u2019s offense to continue to struggle.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Indianapolis Colts at Arizona Cardinals<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 48.5 || Result 41 UNDER<\/p>\n<p>Peyton Manning played true to his form but Kurt Warner did not, keeping this game total under. It is hard to know what to expect from the Cardinals this season.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Monday, Sept. 28<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Carolina Panthers at Dallas Cowboys<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Over\/Under Was Set At 47.5 || Result 28 UNDER<\/p>\n<p>The Cowboys won this game on defense as Tony Romo and the Dallas offense continues to struggle.<\/p>\n<p>Points seemed a bit harder to come by this week as the defensive coordinators now have enough tape on teams\u2019 offenses to effectively scheme against them. Look for this trend to continue over the next week or two, until the offensive coordinators have time to throw a few more wrinkles into their game plan.<\/p>\n<p><strong>YTD Record: 23-25<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"\/expert-sports-handicappers\/\">Cappers Picks powered by Professional Handicappers.
