Dulac's marks: Last week: 8-5 (.615) Season record: 39-21 (.650)

GAME: Steelers (3-1) at Jacksonville Jaguars (2-2), 8:15 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: Playing the Jaguars is always a problem for the Steelers, who have lost the past four meetings, including two at Heinz Field in '07. It gets more difficult on a short week following a physical game.

PREDICTION: Jaguars, 17-14

---

GAME: Tennessee Titans (4-0) at Baltimore Ravens (2-1), 1 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: Quick, which team has the longest active regular-season win streak? It's the Titans, who have won seven in a row, dating to last season. The Ravens are tough to beat at home.

PREDICTION: Titans, 16-10

---

GAME: Kansas City Chiefs (1-3) at Carolina Panthers (3-1), 1 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: The surprise wasn't that the Chiefs beat the Broncos; it was that they scored 33 points doing so. Larry Johnson won't find the Panthers defense as accommodating as Denver.

PREDICTION: Panthers, 30-20

---

GAME: Chicago Bears (2-2) at Detroit Lions (0-3), 1 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: Firing Matt Millen won't work. Having a bye week won't likely make a difference, either. All of a sudden, the Bears are looking like a team that could hang in the division race.

PREDICTION: Bears, 24-17

---

GAME: Atlanta Falcons (2-2) at Green Bay Packers (2-2), 1 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: Aaron Rodgers and the Packers have come back to earth after a 2-0 start. They will need to be a little grounded to stop RB Michael Turner, the league's leading rusher.

PREDICTION: Packers, 27-20

---

GAME: Indianapolis Colts (1-2) at Houston Texans (0-3), 1 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: Other than the Patriots, no team likely welcomed a bye week more than the Colts, who needed some extra time to get their offense -- and Peyton Manning -- in sync. The Texans finally get a home game.

PREDICTION: Colts, 24-20

---

GAME: San Diego Chargers (2-2) at Miami Dolphins (1-2), 1 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: It's not that the Dolphins have won the past six meetings with the Chargers. It's that new offensive package with RB Ronnie Brown that has energized the Fish. The Upset Special.

PREDICTION: Dolphins, 30-27

---

GAME: Seattle Seahawks (1-2) at New York Giants (3-0), 1 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: The Seahawks always seem to have problems when they travel across time zones. They will have even more against the Giants, who haven't started 4-0 since they won the Super Bowl in 1990.

PREDICTION: Giants, 27-17

---

GAME: Washington Redskins (3-1) at Philadelphia Eagles (2-2), 1 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: All of a sudden, the Redskins have won three in a row and Jason Campbell is looking like a productive quarterback. The Eagles can't fall too far back in the brutal NFC East.

PREDICTION: Eagles, 27-24

---

GAME: Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-1) at Denver Broncos (3-1), 4:05 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: The Buccaneers still haven't lost with Brian Griese as the starter. But, then, the Broncos haven't lost at home since last November, even with that soft defense.

PREDICTION: Broncos, 24-20.

---

GAME: Buffalo Bills (4-0) at Arizona Cardinals (2-2), 4:15 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: The Bills are looking to start 5-0 for the first time in 17 years. The Cardinals are merely looking to fix a secondary that allowed six -- count 'em, six -- touchdown passes last week.

PREDICTION: Cardinals, 34-31

---

GAME: Cincinnati Bengals (0-4) at Dallas Cowboys (3-1), 4:15 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: If the winless Bengals could manage only 12 points at home against the Browns, imagine the carnage in Dallas against the Cowboys? Especially after they were beaten by the Redskins?

PREDICTION: Cowboys, 41-17

---

GAME: New England Patriots (2-1) at San Francisco 49ers (2-2), 4:15 p.m., Sunday

THE SKINNY: The Patriots needed a bye week to get QB Matt Cassel more comfortable with the offense. They also needed the extra week to fix those holes the Dolphins tore in their defense.

PREDICTION: Patriots, 23-21

---

GAME: Minnesota Vikings (1-3) at New Orleans Saints (2-2), 8:30 p.m., Monday

THE SKINNY: Drew Brees is just getting warmed up after throwing for 784 yards in the past two games. Even Adrian Peterson can't run for that many yards.

PREDICTION: Saints, 31-17
