With an overall record of 59-63, including 6-9 last week, TSN football analyst Chris Schultz is back with his Week 9 selections in the NFL in Risky Business. Chris Wormley Youth Jersey . New Orleans (-2.5) at Carolina The Panthers did play the Seahawks tough in losing by only four points but Seattle had five opportunities to put the game away and did not capitalize so I do think that 13-9 score is misleading. Youre never sure which team will show up for the Saints - the one that beat the Packers 44-23 or the one that has lost seven road games in a row. Heres a fact about three of their four road losses this year: the Saints had the lead in the fourth quarter against the Falcons, Browns and Lions only to lose by 3, 2, and 1 point. This one will be close but I like the Saints. New Orleans. Tampa Bay at Cleveland (-6.5) The Bucs have had two blowout losses this year, at Atlanta and at home against Baltimore two weeks ago. Every other game has been within one touchdown. For the Browns at 4-3 they are still a possible playoff team by record but do need to improve the run game and on third down. The Bucs need to score first as they have lost 16 consecutive games when the opponent gets on the board first. Bucs on points...Tampa Bay. Arizona at Dallas (-4) The Arizona Cardinals are quietly, very quietly one of the NFLs best teams over the last 16 games, this and last year. In the last 16 they are 13-3. And they do win in the most dramatic ways. Last week they used an end zone interception and late fourth quarter touchdown passes to beat the Eagles 24-20. For the Cowboys they must clarify the procedures in blitz pick up to protect Tony Romo. And it should happen because Cowboy mistakes in protection were much more mental than physical. The Cowboys will try to re-establish DeMarco Murray who only had 19 carries against Washington. The Cardinals will try to hit the big play early and often to keep the pressure on Romo to make the key plays, not Murray. Another key is the health and availability of Patrick Peterson. Cardinals need him to compete directly with Dez Bryant. Cardinals. Philadelphia (-2) at Houston Its the second road game in a row for the Eagles after the Arizona game and that is a tough challenge. Nick Foles as a quarterback has definitely come back down to quarterback reality with 12 touchdowns and nine interceptions. Last week in Arizona he had 411 yards passing but 62 attempts. The game to me is more about Arian Foster and LeSean McCoy than Foles and Ryan Fitzpatrick. The team that wins will be the one with the more productive running back. It will be good to see Jadeveon Clowney in uniform for the Texans but more fun to watch him compete against one of the best left tackles in football, Jason Peters. Eagles. New York Jets at Kansas City (-9.5) The Chiefs have won their last two home games by a combined 75-21 score. Its significant that Michael Vick will make his first start in a long time and although getting all the practice reps will help he really will have to double his quarterback rating to compete, which is currently 49.9. Percy Harvin will make an impact and the Jets defensive front seven is good but the Chiefs are rolling and I think they will continue to do so. Kansas City. Jacksonville at Cincinnati (-11.5) The Bengals are going to win but by how much? In the last 13 games they have 12 wins and one tie at Paul Brown Stadium. If the trend continues the Jaguars will have difficulty scoring points. The only time this season where they scored more than 20 was in their only win over the Browns at home when they scored 24. Denard Robinson, the ex-Michigan Wolverine quarterback is the Jaguars leading rusher, not Toby Gerhart. Pressure is off a little for Cincinnati after they beat Baltimore by three last week. Blake Bortles has to improve and I think he will. Cincinnati wins but Jacksonville keeps it close on points. Jaguars. San Diego at Miami (-2) The Dolphins have won two in a row and the Chargers have lost two in a row. But the Chargers are coming off Thursday Night Football in Denver so traveling west to east should not be a big issue, lots of preparation time. For Miami to win they need a good pass rushing game and a good time of possession game. Right now Philip Rivers is playing his best football with 20 touchdown passes and just five interceptions. Miami has to hurry him as a quarterback and keep the ball away from him so he cant run a lot of plays as a quarterback. Ryan Tannehill had 56 first half yards against Jacksonville. San Diego has lost to Arizona, KC and Denver. With extra time and good play from DJ Fluker and King Dunlap I can see a tough but three-point win for the Chargers. San Diego. Washington at Minnesota (-2.5) Will RG3 start or will it be Colt McCoy? McCoy was impressive in the 20-17 win over Dallas on Monday but now has to play a Viking team that in the last three games has allowed 13, 17 and 17 points. If I was running Washington I would go with McCoy for one more game as the Redskins do have a bye week and could have a healthy Griffin III for the last seven games with the first being Tampa Bay at home. Trent Murphy has filled in for Brian Arakpo, DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon are good receivers, and Alfred Morris as a running back can close out a game. Washington should be confident, Vikings just a touch complacent. Washington. St. Louis at San Francisco (-9.5) The 49ers are coming off the bye week and the timing is good. After three straight wins they lost in Denver and looked tired and beat up and Peyton Manning took advantage. For St. Louis they did trade for Mark Barron with Tampa Bay which means they dont have extreme confidence in the secondary they presently have. How will Greg Robinson play as starting offensive tackle for the Rams, replacing Jake Long? Robert Quinn vs. Joe Staley. The 49ers offensive tackle won Round 1, now can he win Round 2? I do think San Francisco coming off a bye will be rejuvenated but the 49ers handled the Rams in St Louis already, they can do it again here. 49ers by 10 to cover the number. Oakland at Seattle (-15) I am not sure how the Raiders are going to score more than 15 points because outside of one game, a 31-28 loss to San Diego, the Raiders have yet to score more than 14. The Seahawks know they have to get on a roll and fast, since Arizona is good and San Francisco is getting healthy. I dont think Seattle will be complacent against Oakland and being back home after two road games the stadium noise will be at an enthusiastic high. A score of 28-10 sounds good to me. Seattle covers, Seahawks. Denver (-3) at New England Great game. Records of 6-1 against 6-2. Both teams are coming off slightly misleading victories. Denver beat San Diego 35-21 as the Chargers were without their top three running backs and two cornerbacks. New England cruised 51-23 over Chicago but the Bears lacked NFL intensity throughout in one of the most uninspired performances in that franchises history. But in reality this is the 16th Brady vs. Manning game about to be played. Brady has won 10, Manning five, and New England has won 13 straight at home at Gillette Stadium. On top of that, Brandon LaFell is becoming an impact receiver. Home underdog, and I will stay with the home team. Patriots. Baltimore at Pittsburgh (Pick em) These are two completely different types of offences when it comes to producing touchdowns. The Ravens have more drives of 80-plus yards than any other NFL team, they will grind you into submission if you let them. The Steeler receivers are maturing together led by Antonio Brown. He has an NFL record going of at least five catches for 50 yards in the last 24 games. Pass protection was an easy challenge for Pittsburgh last week, it wont be this week. It is tough to beat the same divisional team twice in half a football season. Especially when Baltimore does not have perhaps its best cornerback in Jimmy Smith. Pittsburgh. Indianapolis (-3) at NY Giants It is hard to explain how a team like the Colts can shut out the Bengals one week and then give up 51 to Pittsburgh. No Vontae Davis, no Erik Walden is one reason but I do think the Colts will respond. Coming off the bye week, the Giants will be healthy but can they create a pass rush and protect as well as Pittsburgh. Andrew Luck has thrown for 300 or more yards in six straight games, breaking a Peyton Manning record. The Giants have not allowed 300 yards to a quarterback in five of their last six games. What gives? The Giants defence. Colts. Chris Wormley Jersey . Sterling was banned for life and fined US$2.5 million by the NBA on Tuesday for racist comments the league says he made in a recorded conversation. Nash, who plays for the rival L.A. Lakers, spoke as a representative of current NBA players at a press conference assembled by Sacramento mayor and National Basketball Players Association adviser Kevin Johnson. Tyus Bowser Womens Jersey . (AP) -- The head of the committee that developed Major League Baseballs plan to expand instant replay says he is optimistic the system will be in place this season, even though owners and unions for players and umpires have yet to approve. http://www.cheapravensshoponline.com/Youth-Tim-Williams-Ravens-Jersey/ . - The Pittsburgh Pirates plan on keeping promising left fielder Starling Marte playing alongside National League MVP Andrew McCutchen for years to come. CHICAGO -- This time, the Chicago Cubs were shut down by Mat Latos. Starlin Castro had an RBI single for Chicagos only run in a 4-1 loss to Latos and the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday night. The Cubs began the day with a .232 team batting average, which was next to last in the National League. They managed just six hits in the series finale against Cincinnati. "The story for us has been that were not scoring enough runs for the starting pitchers and for this bullpen," catcher John Baker said. "Its frustrating for us position players." Its also frustrating for first-year manager Rick Renteria. "Theyre all chipping away at their approaches, but were facing some pretty good chuckers too," he said. "We just obviously werent able to generate a whole lot of runs." Edwin Jackson (5- allowed four runs and six hits in 5 1-3 innings for Chicago, which has dropped four of five. Starlin Castro had two hits and drove in a run. "Its a tough lineup. Theyre going to make you work," Jackson said. "I thought for the most part I was able to contain them until the sixth inning. They kind of busted it open a little bit." With the wind blowing in on a cold summer night, Devin Mesoracos five-game homer streak came to an end. The Reds catcher was tied with Adam Dunn, Ken Griffey Jr., Johnny Bench, George Crowe and Ted Kluszewski for the franchise record. Latos (1-0) allowed one run and five hits in seven innings in his third start after beginning the season on the disabled list. It was his first win since Sept. 2 against St. Louis. Latos was coming off a frustrating no-decision against Toronto, when he was staked to an 8-0 lead and was unable to hold on. He gave up five runs and nine hits in 5 2-3 innings as the Blue Jays rallied for a 14-9 victory Friday night. Thee Cubs fell to 12-31 against Cincinnati over the last three seasons.

Pinch-hitter Justin Ruggiano doubled off the front of the basket in right field with two outs in the ninth. The call was upheld after Renteria called for a review, and Chapman struck out pinch-hitter Mike Olt to end the game. Cincinnati went ahead to stay with three runs in the sixth. Todd Frazier scored from first on Joey Vottos opposite-field double to left. After Mesoracos single, Jay Bruce lined a double off third baseman Luis Valbuenas glove to drive in Votto. Jackson struck out Chris Heisey before James Russell came in, and Skip Schumaker executed a perfect suicide squeeze to give the Reds a 4-1 lead. "It was the first one in my life. College, big leagues, you name it," said Schumaker, who also had two doubles in the game. "I saw the sign. It worked out." Bruce put the Reds in front with a two-out double down the right-field line in the first, scoring Frazier from second. Votto tried to hustle home from first but was cut down at the plate on Darwin Barneys relay throw. The Cubs tied it in the fourth. Ryan Sweeney reached on a leadoff double, advanced on Anthony Rizzos groundout and scored on Castros base hit. NOTES: Reds 2B Brandon Phillips was out of the lineup for the third straight game with a bruised right heel. ...
