Rick's Platinum Pick of the week:

Steelers -4.5

The return of Jerry Porter should bring an emotional lift to the Steelers, which means back to reality for the over achieving yet still unsuccessful Bengals. It’s going to be 0 wins and 3 losses for Bengals as the Steelers may even break out their run game led by Amos Zereoue. Counterpart Jerome Bettis may get to run the ball as well. QB Tommy Maddox has been explosive with WR Hines Ward and Plaxico Burres. I think this game will become a laugher early, unlike last week when the Bengals tested the “injured up Raiders” to the limit and still lost. Steelers -4.5

Rick's Gold Picks:

Colts -7.5

Patriots - 6.5
Packers -8
Bills +3

In the Colts - Jaguars game I am looking for Peyton Manning and Marvin Harrison to reassert themselves as top TD connection. Manning always terrorizes the Jaguars. Edgerrin James needs to play well and he should. The Circus is in town this week at Indy (I mean the Jaguars) and it should be just what the Colts prolific offense needs to get rolling. The Colts defense is right where they should have been last year, but Dungy deserves credit (Finally). COLTS -7.5

In the Packers - Cardinals I am looking for one of the all time great QBs (Bret Favre) to quietly put up respectable numbers while his monster running back (Ahman Green) racks up 150 yards and 2 TDs. The Cardinals offense is horrible but not as horrible as their defense. PACKERS -8

In the Bills - Dolphins game I look for the Bills to win. They should not be an under dog. The important position where the Dolphins are better is at RB and Travis Henry isnt that bad with 5 TDs. The Texans young QB David Carr found a way to open up the Dolphins defense but throwing the ball fast in 3 step drops. Bledsoe is plenty capable of making decisions as fast as the youngster Carr and the Bills Defense is revamped. Ricky Williams or Chris Chambers may have a big game for the Dolphins but I see the Bills as the better team. Dolphins are questionable. BILLS +3
