ESPN senior writer Mike Sando asks league insiders to pick winners in selected games each week. Three evaluators tk the challenge in Week 10. The games on the docket:?Chiefs-Panthers, Broncos-Saints, Cowboys-Steelers, Seahawks-Patriots and Bengals-Giants.Kansas City Chiefs at Carolina PanthersSunday:?1 p.m. ET, CBS |?Point spread: CAR by 3One insider tk Carolina, another tk Kansas City and the third said he would take the Chiefs if he could have the points, citing their 17-3 record over a 20-game stretch dating to last season.I could see people wagering on Carolina, and I know the Chiefs gave up yards last week, but the Kansas City defense is so sound that I think it will give the Panthers some problems, an offensive coach familiar with both teams said. In my opinion, Carolina feasts on defenses that try to do a lot of things, because its tough to do all those things with Carolina shifting, motioning and going unbalanced. But a [simpler] defense like Kansas Citys will be less affected.Alex Smiths return to the lineup for Kansas City completed the equation for this coach.Nick Foles is not a starting quarterback, but Alex is so gd at maintaining possession, being careful with the ball and moving the ball, he said. I think the Chiefs will move the ball. Adam Henrique Jersey . -- There were a lot of firsts for the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night. Ryan Miller Ducks Jersey . Didier Drogba gave away the penalty that put Senegal one goal away from a major upset, but the veteran striker will get another chance -- probably his last -- at the World Cup after Salomon Kalous injury-time strike sealed the Ivorians place in Brazil next year. http://www.authenticduckspro.com/Josh-manson-ducks-jersey/ . The Court of Arbitration for Sport ruling "puts an end to my dreams of being a top player," the 27-year-old Troicki said in a statement. "I worked my entire life for it, and it has been taken away from me in one afternn by a doctor I didnt know," said Troicki, whose ranking peaked at No. Anaheim Ducks Jerseys . -- There were so many positives from the Orlando Magics first victory of the season that it was hard for coach Jacque Vaughn to stop praising his players. Teemu Selanne Jersey .Y. -- Injured Buffalo Sabres forward Marcus Foligno did not practice with the team Monday and head coach Ron Rolston said its unlikely hell play in Wednesdays season opener in Detroit. Last year, the two worst divisions in the NFL were clearly the AFC South and the NFC East. But those two divisions have gone in very different directions this year.The AFC South is still terrible. Every team in the division ranks 20th or lower in the Ftball Outsiders DVOA ratings, and all four teams average fewer than 7.5 wins in our 50,000 simulations this week. The AFC South champion now goes 8-8 or worse in 40 percent of simulations and has a losing record 9.1 percent of the time. An AFC South team wins the Super Bowl in just 1.3 percent of simulations, which gives the entire division worse Super Bowl odds than 13 different teams.On the other hand, the NFC East has been outstanding this year. Defense has improved in Washington, New York, and especially Philadelphia. Meanwhile, Dallas has the best offense in the league thanks to great performances from two rkies, quarterback Dak Prescott and running back Ezekiel Elliott. Every team in the NFC East has a winning record right now, and all four teams are also above-average in DVOA. This week, we end up with every NFC East team finishing 8-8 or better in 42.5 percent of simulations. The entire division has a winning record in 12.2 percent of simulations, roughly a 1-in-8 chance.And yet ... the NFC East may not be the best division in the game. The AFC West has three teams with winning records and the underrated 3-4 San Diego Charrgers.dddddddddddd AFC West teams also get easier schedules than their NFC East counterparts, which mean there are even better odds of the whole division finishing with a winning record. The AFC West has every team at 8-8 or better in 47.8 percent of simulations, and every team has a winning record in 14.7 percent of simulations.?Once again, were doing our weekly run through the playoff odds for all 32 teams in the NFL. For a full explanation on how we calculate each teams playoff odds,?see the bottom of the article.AFC PLAYOFF PREDICTIONSFAVORITES1. New England Patriots (6-1)Odds of making playoffs: 95.7 percentThe Patriots have climbed from 13th to third in offensive DVOA since Tom Bradys return three weeks ago. They now have the best record in the NFL and are clearly in the drivers seat for home-field advantage. The Patriots take the No. 1 seed in over half our simulations (55.7 percent) and get a first-round bye 78 percent of the time. The biggest thing standing between the Patriots and a top-two seed isnt Denver or Pittsburgh; its a Buffalo surge that would knock them into a wild-card spot. If the Patriots beat Buffalo this week, their odds of getting the No. 1 seed go up to 70.3 percent and their odds of a first-round bye increase to 93.4 percent. ' ' '
