An incredible string of winning NFL picks continued for Cras as he had a 3-1 effort last Sunday.<\/p>\n
That improved his season record to 22 winners, 11 losers and three pushes through the first nine weeks.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile Mike\u2019s streak slowed with the first winless weekend for either Sportsbook.com writer this year. He\u2019s still had a profitable season though with an 18-15-3 record. <\/p>\n
Here\u2019s how they like the Week 10 games.<\/strong><\/p>\n Mike:<\/span><\/strong> Chicago quarterback Kyle Orton does not appear to be as badly injured as previous thought, but Rex Grossman is still going to start this game at quarterback. This is the same guy that had a 48 quarterback rating last week against Detroit and who is known for throwing interceptions.<\/p>\n Tennessee proved they were human last week by failing to cover the spread at home versus Green Bay. The Titans may have trouble running the ball effectively but the Bears will as well. The oddsmakers aren\u2019t giving a lot of respect for an undefeated team giving just a field goal. I think that\u2019s a big mistake with Grossman behind center.<\/p>\n Pick: Tennessee -3<\/em><\/p>\n Cras:<\/span><\/strong> The betting public loves the Titans chances of improving to 9-0 as they are being backed by 78% of Sportsbook.com members. A large part of that betting likely has to do with the fact that it appears that Rex Grossman will start as the Bears\u2019 QB.<\/p>\n You\u2019d be wise to not discount the Bears at home though. They beat the Philadelphia Eagles earlier this season and the defense has the ability to step up and make game-changing plays in big situations. I\u2019m in the small minority here but I am with Chicago fans in this one.<\/p>\n Pick: Chicago +3<\/em><\/p>\n Mike:<\/span><\/strong> No one would have predicted that New Orleans would be trailing Atlanta heading into this game, but that\u2019s parity in the NFL. The Saints are coming off their bye-week after playing in London but Reggie Bush still won\u2019t play. However, New Orleans has enough other weapons where offense will not be a problem.<\/p>\n I haven\u2019t been a big believer of Atlanta all year but they really dominated in Oakland last week 24-0. They also are undefeated at home although two of those wins were against Detroit and Kansas City. Atlanta is going to put up their share of points in this game, but I think it will be too much Drew Brees and New Orleans gets the outright win.<\/p>\n Pick: Saints +1<\/em><\/p>\n Cras:<\/span><\/strong> For all the talk about the Saints being a huge disappointment, they are 5-3 ATS this season but have struggled on the road with a 1-3 ATS record. Despite that road record, the Saints are attracting the attention of bettors, even with Reggie Bush still out with his knee injury.<\/p>\n The lack of respect for the Falcons at this point is surprising. I can understand bettors being weary of Atlanta early in the season but they have continued to win and must be taken for real. They have a solid run game, rookie quarterback Matt Ryan has performed better than expected and the defense is sufficient. You\u2019ve got to take them at home.<\/p>\nTennessee Titans @ Chicago Bears<\/a><\/h2>\n
