ESPN Upset Watch is on a four-game winning streak, but just like last week I don't think the line in this game in particularly wrong. This is less about why the Ravens will topple the Texans, and more about how the Ravens offense can attack the Texans defense in order to overcome the injury issues that the Ravens have on their own defense and outscore Houston. Cover watch looks at the double-digit line on the biggest game of the week, Jets-Patriots. And how do we know it's the biggest game of the week? 'CAUSE THAT'S WHERE I'M GONNA BE. (These last three sentences are copyright 2012 Sal Paolantonio.)

This week we look at kickers and fantasy defenses you should try to target or avoid for the stretch run, and recommend you start Ryan Fitzpatrick, Doug Martin, and Denarius Moore, among others.

Which current one-loss teams might actually have a chance of running the table the rest of the way and sneaking back into the national championship picture?

Atlanta is 6-0, the last undefeated team, so they must be the best team in the NFL, right? We argue not, as the Falcons are a flawed team that can't run or stop the run, and has won close games over poor opponents.

Frankly, not a very good week for Upset Watch, with most lines at three points or less. No game really sticks out as a possible upset, but Green Bay-Houston comes closest because Green Bay really isn't playing like a 2-3 team. (Houston, however, is playing like a 5-0 team, which is why this wasn't the easiest week to pick an Upset Watch.) Cover Watch is Tennessee-Pittsburgh.

The San Francisco 49ers have put together an offense that's nearly on par with their dominant defense, and they've done it with an offensive line that is clearing space in the run game to a historic degree.

South Carolina, Notre Dame, West Virginia, Florida, and Mississippi State are in the midst of or about to face the toughest stretches in their regular season schedules. Who will survive?

A closer look shows that the 3-1 Bengals have gotten all the breaks, and the 1-3 Dolphins have not, but the two teams are relatively equal. Plus, Cover Watch looks at the return of Brady vs. Manning.
