USAFL Week 5 Point Spreads

Week 4 Accuracy: 83% (10 out of 12)
Season Accuracy: 73% (35 out of 48)
 
+04 Detroit (1-3) vs Baltimore (1-3)
The Lions annoy Colossus. They don't win and lose when they are supposed to.

+06 Houston (1-3) vs Oakland (2-2)
Latest Colossus numbers show Houston as a 3-13 team instead of 7-9 as originally predicted. Need more research to see why. Trades?

+07 New York (A) (0-4) vs Atlanta (4-0)
The Falcons were not supposed to be this good. By a long shot.

+10 Dallas (0-4) at Philadelphia (0-4)
Don't give up Eagles fans, a win streak begins.

+11 New York (N) (3-1) vs Pittsburgh (4-0)
Steeler 'D' doesn't allow points and stuffs the run. Not good for the Giants.

+12 Cincinnati (2-2) vs Denver (4-0)
Bengals have better days ahead. Just not the day they play Denver.

+15 Cleveland (2-2) at Washington (3-1)
On fire Redskin QB Aaron Rodgers vs an excellent Brown pass defense.

+15 Chicago (1-3) vs Green Bay (4-0)
Speaking of QBs, Packer Donovan McNabb is #1: 9 tds, 121.5 rating.

+18 Buffalo (1-3) at Boston (2-2)
Patriots are a good team in a very tough division.

+18 Kansas City (0-4) at San Diego (3-1)
Chargers should have no trouble keeping pressure on division leader Denver.

+19 San Francisco (3-1) vs Minnesota (2-2)
Vikings should still make the playoffs in spite of disappointing start.

+23 Miami (2-2) at Carolina (3-1)
Poor Dolphins have a tough schedule.

Week 3 Accuracy: 58% 7 out of 12 Colossus circuits overheat.
Season Accuracy: 69% 25 out of 36
 
+01 Pittsburgh (3-0) at Philadelphia (0-3)
Actually calculated as even but a winner must be selected and Colossus always defaults to the home team. Undefeated vs Non-win and it's even?

+01 San Diego (2-1) at Cincinnati (2-1)
Could Cincy pass up Chargers in division race?

+01 Atlanta (3-0) at Miami (2-1)
Falcons defeat Carolina in huge upset last week. Dolphins could be easy mark.

+01 Chicago (0-3) vs Detroit (1-2)
Jay Cutler and friends barely skin Bears.

+03 Baltimore (1-2) at Minnesota (1-2)
Ravens surprised by SanFran last week. Doesn't get easier.

+05  Washington (2-1) at Dallas (0-3)
Cowboys get first win.

+07 Cleveland (2-1) vs New York (N) (2-1)
Giants looked like pygmies against WAS last week.

+13 Buffalo (1-2) vs Carolina (2-1)
Whaaaat? Carolina got a loss? Poor Buffalo, Panthers feast.

+14 Kansas City (0-3) at Oakland (1-2)
Colossus expects Raiders to be 9-7, Chiefs 4-12.
 
+19 New York (A) (0-3) at Boston (1-2)
Two worst defenses in the league. I guess Jets are THE worst.

+19 Houston (1-2) at Denver (3-0)
After handily dispatching San Diego last week, Denver takes control of division.

+21 San Francisco (3-0) at Green Bay (3-0)
49ers are playing way too big for their britches. They have 2 upset scalps on their belt. The Packers will bring them down to earth with a loud thud.

+06 Kansas City (0-2) vs Houston (0-2)
Don't count the Chiefs out but at least someone gets first win.

+07 Dallas (0-2) at Pittsburgh (2-0)
Too bad the Cowboys decided to make it a rebuild year. They had some talent.

+07 Cleveland (1-1) vs Philadelphia (0-2)
The Eagles are supposed to be 10-6, the Browns 4-12. Why a close spread?

+08 Washington (1-1) at New York (N) (2-0)

The mediocrity that is San Fran is exposed.

Yawn. Panthers win again. And again. Hail the Champion.

New York pulled off a mild upset of Philadelphia last week but Dallas hit an embarrassing 33-14 upset by Cleveland.

San Fran upset the Lions last week, the Vikings are a tougher opponent.

+07 Houston (0-1) vs Cincinnati (1-0)
The Bengals rocked out to start the season scoring 35 points, the Texans only scored 7 in their opener.

Oakland is supposed to be a 9-7 team but the Chargers ain't going to be one of the 9.
