Denver Broncos at Tennessee Titans Over/Under: 42
Denver quarterback Kyle Orton bounced back from a shaky performance against Oakland in a season- opening loss with a much better outing in the Broncos 24-22 win over Cincinnati. Injuries are starting to take its toll on this team which could be a factor in this game.
Matt Hasselbeck also played much better in Tennessee’s shocking 26-13 romp over Baltimore. He threw for 358 yards and appeared to have a firmer grasp on the offense than he did in an opening day loss to Jacksonville.
The total has gone ’over’ in nine of the Broncos last 12 road games and in nine of the Titans last 12 home games. Head-to-head, the total has gone ‘over’ in the last four meetings.
Prediction: OVER

Kansas City Chiefs at San Diego Chargers Over/Under: 45
The Chiefs suddenly look like a mere shell of the team that won the AFC West last season with a record of 10-6. In two losses this season, they have managed to score a total of 10 points. The loss of Pro Bowl running back Jamaal Charles, who is done for the season with a knee injury, will definitely not help the cause.
It hard to call this another slow start for the San Diego since it is 1-1, but the offense continues to shoot itself in the foot, especially in the Red Zone. The Chargers have injury concerns of their own with three wide receivers list as questionable for Sunday, including Malcom Floyd.
The total has stayed ‘under’ in four of Kansas City’s last five games following an ATS loss and in five of San Diego’s last five games as a home favorite. The total has stayed ‘under’ in five of the last seven games played between these two teams in San Diego.
Prediction: UNDER

Green Bay Packers at Chicago Bears Over/Under: 45.5
Green Bay began defense of its Super Bowl title with wins over New Orleans and Carolina in relatively high-scoring games, but it plays a black-and-blue NFC North game this Sunday, which will feature more hitting and less scoring.
Chicago looked like world-beaters in its 30-12 win over Atlanta on opening day, but suffered a hard dose of reality last week in a 30-13 loss to the Saints. One constant in both games is that Jay Cutler continues to take far too many hits behind center.
The total has stayed ‘under’ in six of the Packers last seven games as a road favorite and in five of the Bears last seven games within the division. The total has stayed ‘under’ in the last seven games between the two overall and in the last four games that were played in Chicago.
Prediction: UNDER
