Miami (I heard that Detroit signed Leon Lett)
Dallas (I'm chasing the bandwagon, but can't root for TO. sorry)
Kansas City (that place is crazy at night, and Denver has Plummer)

That's okay. I've heard that it helps if you refer to him as "the player" and don't say anything about him to give him publicity. You could cheer for the 'Boys and ignore his presense entirely.

I don't care about the other two games but realized there was a Triple D option after I put up the poll.

Miami - I heard Joey Harrington doesn't play well in Detroit.
Dallas - Somehow I feel ... dirty after picking them
KC - Arrowhead too much for Plummer - let the calls for Cutler begin!

Miami - b/c Detroit sucks.
Tampa Bay - Dallas will still be enjoying their victory over the Colts
KC - Arrowhead at night can't be good for visitors.

Miami-Harrington wants to prove that detroit sucks and he doesn't
Dallas- It's freaking Tampa Bay people(although I hope Cadillac has a great game!)
Denver-Remember last thanksgiving? They have to keep their streak alive

I'm going with:
Miami (on a roll right now, plus big time revenge game for Harrington)
Dallas (also on a roll, playing the abysmal Bucs)
Kansas City (hard to win in Arrowhead, plus this will be the "bring in Cutler" game for Bronco fans)
