NFL Week 10 Predictions
Thursday, November 7th 7:20 PM CT on FOX
Los Angeles Chargers 4-5 @ Oakland Raiders 4-4
The Chargers and Raiders meet Thursday night for second place in the AFC West and better positioning in the AFC Wild Card race. The Chargers have won back to back games and have gotten back into the playoff picture. Meanwhile, the Raiders have been competitive all season, and have fought incredibly hard, even though many people counted them out for the season. The Raiders have scored 24 points or more in 5 straight games, which is the longest active streak. I think they continue that this week and go above 500.
Chargers 23 Raiders 27

Kansas City Chiefs 6-3 @ Tennessee Titans 4-5
The Chiefs sound like their getting Mahomes back this week, which of course is a plus, but on top of that, we got to see they still have a very quality roster without him. Beating a tough Vikings team last week showed they have toughness, and their defense has played incredibly well in this span and have played with more aggression. The Titans have played much better since benching Mariota, and scored 23.3 points per game since naming Tannehill, the starter, but I don’t think they’ll have enough to upset the Chiefs this week.
Chiefs 26 Titans 21

Arizona Cardinals 3-5-1 @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2-6
Kyler Murray and the Cardinals have played better each week, while the Buccaneers have been competitive, as Jameis Winston has made strides under Bruce Arians, but still has a way to go in order to prove he can be the starter next year. The Cardinals have allowed 24 passing touchdowns this year, which is the most in the NFL. I think Kyler and Jameis will have a few turnovers, but in the end, Mike Evans and Chris Goodwin will be able to take advantage of the Cardinals poor pass defense and will get the victory this week.
Cardinals 24 Buccaneers 31

New York Giants 2-7 @ New York Jets 1-7
The battle of New York may be a battle to see who has the higher draft pick as Daniel Jones and the Giants take on Sam Darnold and the Jets. The Giants played tough against the Cowboys, but faded in the second half, while the Jets suffered a lost to the, at the time, winless Dolphins. Adam Gase hasn’t done the job the Jets expected him to do with Sam Darnold when they hired him, and now the Jets may be the worst team in football. The Giants have looked better since starting Daniel Jones and have won 5 of 6 versus the Jets, now they will extend that to 6 of 7 this week.
Giants 20 Jets 14

Atlanta Falcons 1-7 @ New Orleans Saints 7-1
The Falcons and Saints use to determine first place in the South, but these aren’t those Falcons. The Falcons have been hot garbage defensively and now with Dan Quinn running out of time as Head Coach of the Falcons, it seems as though they’ve played uninspired under him this season. The Saints got Drew Brees back two weeks ago against the Cardinals, and he showed why he is the unquestioned leader of the Saints. The Saints have been phenomenal on defense, allowing 14.8 points per game since week 4, which is 3rd in the NFL, in that span. I believe the Saints will handle their division rivals with ease and win their 7th straight game.
Falcons 13 Saints 30

Buffalo Bills 6-2 @ Cleveland Browns 2-6
The Bills have made good work of their easy schedule to start the season, and Cleveland has been incredibly disappointing. The Bills have done just enough on offense while the Browns have been mediocre despite all the talent they have. They have been undisciplined, and now it seems as though Odell is getting frustrated with his lack of targets. The Bills are the only team to not allow a 100-yard receiver this season, and with their suffocating defense, I expect the Bills to deliver another blow to the Browns.
Bills 20 Browns 16

Baltimore Ravens 6-2 @ Cincinnati Bengals 0-8
Ryan Finley will get his first start against well the super-hot Ravens, who have just beaten the Patriots last Sunday night. The Bengals are the last winless team in the NFL, and with the Ravens and MVP candidate Lamar Jackson looking to be hitting their stride, and I expect them to improve to 7-2 this week.
Ravens 28 Bengals 13

Detroit Lions 3-4-1 @ Chicago Bears 3-5
The Lions started the season off strong but have lost 4 of their last 5 games, this week they look to get back on track against a slumping Bears team. Quarterback Mitchell Tribusky, has struggled, he has 5 touchdown passes in 7 games and looks as though he’s playing to save his job. I believe the Lions win this week as the Bears will lose their 5th straight game
.Lions 20 Bears 17

Miami Dolphins @ Indianapolis Colts 5-3
The Colts have a legitimate case to be 7-1, but instead, due to kicking issues, here they sit at 5-3. The Colts are a complete team set at each phase, except probably secondary, but due to coaching, even the secondary has performed well. The Dolphins have been on the brink of winning for weeks now and last week they finally got it done against the Jets. The Colts aren’t a team that blow people out, and with the Dolphins playing much better, I think the Colts win, but closer than many think.
Dolphins 19 Colts 24

Los Angeles Rams 5-3 @ Pittsburgh Steelers 4-4
The Steelers have turned things around and now sit at 4-4 with a chance at the Wild Card. Now they welcome a talented Rams team who seems to have gotten their feet back under them. The Steelers are 7-1 in November since 2017, but the Rams are coming off a bye week, which gives McVay an edge. The Steelers defense has been amazing at creating turnovers, but with the Rams having extra time to prepare i think they win their third straight.
Rams 27 Steelers 23

Carolina Panthers 5-3 @ Green Bay Packers 7-2
The Panthers bounced back last week after their embarrassing lost to the 49ers two weeks ago, now they travel to Green Bay against a team that may have received a much-needed wake up call. Green Bay was dominated last week in Los Angeles against the Chargers, and now at home, I think Green Bay shows that last week was just a bump in the road, and they’ll get a victory this week.
Panthers 23 Packers 27

Minnesota Vikings 6-3 @ Dallas Cowboys 5-3
Kirk Cousins, the quarterback with questions in primetime games vs Dak Prescott, the quarterback with the most primetime wins (14) since 2016. The Cowboys have won 2 straight, now they hope to add on to that with a win against a good Vikings team. The Vikings have played well, but last week suffered a loss against the Mahomes less Chiefs, they hope to get back on track this week, but I don’t trust Cousins in big games, and I have Dallas winning their 3rd straight game.
Vikings 23 Cowboys 29

Seattle Seahawks 7-2 @ San Francisco 49ers 8-0
The game of the week MVP candidate, Russell Wilson, leads the Seahawks against Defensive Rookie of the Year candidate, Nick Bosa and the 49ers. Russell Wilson is an incredible 23-5-1 in primetime games in his career. The 49ers get Joe Staley back this week, to help the offensive line, and the addition of Emmanuel Sanders has helped the offense out in the 2 games he’s been there. The Seahawks are 4-0 on the road this season, I like Russell Wilson and the Seahawks to give the 49ers their first loss of the season Monday Night.
Seahawks 26 49ers 23
