New Jersey Generals -4 over Tampa Bay Bandits (-110)
They almost blew a game to one of the worst teams in the league in the Gamblers last week, but the New Jersey Generals are certainly among the elite in the USFL with their 5-1 record. They are among the best scoring offenses in the league, and their run defense is off the charts good, allowing just 74 yards per game on the ground. I keep expecting the interchanging quarterbacks to come back and bite them, but head coach Mike Riley has been pushing all the right buttons this season. In Week 5 it was De'Andre Johnson who led the team and last week Luis Perez played most of the way and scored the game-winning touchdown on a quarterback sneak as time was expiring.
