NFL Week 5 - Pats Prediction

Pats Prediction:

Last week: Bengals were favored by 6. I said the Bengals would beat the Pats 30 - 20. I was very happy to not only be wrong, but to be way off base. The final score was 38 - 13 New England.

I would like to thank my wife for helping the Patriots win in Cincinnati last week. She left the room and the Pats scored their first touchdown. She fell asleep for 10 minutes and the Pats scored their second touchdown. She went for a walk with my mother and the Pats scored 24 unanswered points in the second half.

Season record: 2-2 straight up, 1-3 against the spread.

Week 4 Favorite: New England (-10)

Prediction: Pats 27, Miami 20.

Miami looks terrible so far this year. If Culpepper sits in favor of Harrington this week, the Dolphins offense might actually be better than it has been to date. The last time a team that wasn't playing well faced the Patriots was the loss to Denver at home. I'm not convinced that the game will be a cakewalk today. I'll take the points but the Pats will win.
