Los cuartos perros
Life these days is rich, but let's not forget our charity pro football underdog game in the shuffle. Here are this week's options:
13 DENVER at Green Bay
10 INDIANAPOLIS at Tampa Bay
8 MIAMI at San Diego
7 JACKSONVILLE vs. New Orleans
6.5 CAROLINA at Chicago
4.5 SEATTLE vs. Atlanta
4.5 OAKLAND vs. New England
4 PITTSBURGH at Houston
3.5 NEW YORK JETS at Baltimore
3 CINCINNATI vs. Buffalo
2 ARIZONA vs. New York Giants
2 KANSAS CITY vs. Minnesota
1 TENNESSEE at Cleveland
As last week, the Cowboys (home to Detroit) and Eagles (home to San Francisco) are off-line while their quarterback situations are dealt with. Washington at St. Louis is also not yet up. But these games may be added sometime between now and Thursday night.
So whaddya think, readers? See an underdog (in caps) on that list that can win its game outright (without the benefit of the point spread)? Could it be time to throw the long ball against the Pack? San Diego could lose on any given weekend. And Seattle seems to do o.k. at home. Speaking of which, there are no fewer than six home 'dogs there...
UPDATE, 9/28, 5:02 a.m.: Here are a couple of puppies that have just been added:
1.5 DETROIT at Dallas
1 WASHINGTON at St. Louis
UPDATE, 10/1, 1:43 p.m.: The last 'dog of the week, posted Wednesday evening:
10 SAN FRANCISCO at Philadelphia

I personally believe Carolina will skin those Bears.

Patriots and the phew england defense fall again, perhaps? Detroit should handle the Cowboys and their diva QB, TRo, but the spread will probably only be about 1.5. Tough week to pick and expect to move up much. How desperate are the Dolphins after blowing Sunday's game in Cleveland and bumping Sparano further out on the plank? Maybe Buffalo's let-down week, on the road after high-skying on finally beating Brady, Belichick & Co.? Hmmm. Can I buy a vowel?
