RECORD LAST WEEK 11-5
RECORD FOR THE SEASON 40-24 (62,5%)

Chicago Bears 0-4 @ Washington Commanders 2-2
The schedule makers didn’t do us any favors this week with this matchup on Thursday night. The Bears are an embarrassment. Last week they blew
a 28-7 lead, and now on a short week, they look for their first win against a Commanders team that almost defeated Philly last week. I can’t see the
Bears getting out of their slump.
Bears 16 Commanders 26

Jacksonville Jaguars 2-2 @ Buffalo Bills 3-1
Another game across the pond, this time featuring the Jaguars and the Bills. Jacksonville has struggled but got back on track last week in their win
over the Falcons, that game was also in London. Josh Allen is playing at an MVP level right now and I don’t see the Jags being able to slow that down
this week.
Jaguars 23 Bills 33
Confidence level:7

New York Giants 1-3 @ Miami Dolphins 3-1
Oh, how bad are the Giants right now?? This team looks nothing like the playoff team from a year ago. Yes, they are without star running back
Saquon Barkley, but that Daniel Jones contract looks worse each passing week. Meanwhile, the Dolphins are coming off a blowout loss to the Bills
but they should get back on track this week.
Giants 13 Dolphins 35
Confidence Level: 10
Carolina Panthers 0-4 @ Detroit Lions 3-1
Carolina and their number one overall pick Bryce Young, have gotten off to a rough start. The Lions are exceeding expectations, they dominated the
Packers on Thursday night last week, now it looks like they’ll improve to
4-1.
Panthers 17 Lions 24
Confidence Level:9
Baltimore Ravens 3-1 @ Pittsburgh Steelers 2-2
The Ravens bounced back from their first loss of the season with a big-time win over their AFC North rival, the Browns. Pittsburgh was embarrassed by
the Texans last Sunday but no matter what, these games are always competitive. The Steelers have given Lamar Jackson trouble in recent years and although Baltimore is beat up, I have them getting the win this week.
Ravens 20 Steelers 17
Confidence Level:5
New Orleans Saints 2-2 @ New England Patriots 1-3
Two teams with struggling offenses, the Saints and Patriots play in the kicker Super Bowl. Both teams are coming off losses and the Patriots lost their star rookie cornerback Christian Gonzale for the season. With the Patriots being at home I’ll roll with them.
Saints 16 Patriots 19
Confidence Level:4
Houston Texans 2-2 @ Atlanta Falcons 2-2
The Texans have been a pleasant surprise to start the season as this young core has already shown they’re headed in the right direction. Another young team with potential, the Falcons have cooled off after a 2-0
start. Quarterback Desmond Ridder has struggled the last two games explaining the losing streak, and with the way C.J. Stroud is playing right
now, I’ll take the Texans.
Texans 27 Falcons 24
Confidence Level: 3
Tennessee Titans 2-2 @ Indianapolis Colts 2-2
The entire AFC South is 2-2 and two of those teams match up this week. The Titans beat the stripes off the Bengals last week while the Colts lost in
overtime to the Rams. This should be a run-heavy defensive game that I’ll take Indy to win.
Titans 17 Colts 21
Confidence Level:2

Cincinnati Bengals 1-3 @ Arizona Cardinals 1-3
Nothing is going right for the Bengals as they try to keep hope alive for a playoff run. Despite the Cardinals record, they have played very tough and
it wouldn’t be surprising if they won this game, but the Bengals are desperate and should get the win.
Bengals 23 Cardinals 21
Confidence Level:2
Philadelphia Eagles 4-0 @ Los Angeles Rams 2-2
The Eagles struggled last week but survived to move to 4-0. Los Angeles won in overtime as they also survived a scare against the Colts. Philly pass
defense has not been as lockdown as they were last season and the Rams can take advantage of that. This game has upset potential, but I’ll roll with Philadelphia to stay undefeated.
Eagles 28 Rams 23
Confidence Level:6
Kansas City Chiefs 3-1 @ Minnesota Vikings 1-3
The Chiefs offense hasn’t looked like their normal selves to start the season, but the perfect cure is the Vikings defense that can’t stop my old flag football team. Minnesota won their first game of the season last week, but now they get the Super Bowl champs coming to town and Kansas City, despite their struggles, will move to 4-1.
Chiefs 30 Vikings 21
Confidence Level:9
New York Jets 1-3 @ Denver Broncos 1-3
Nathaniel Hackett returns to Denver to coach against his former employer. Both teams haven’t had the start they thought they’d have to start the
season, but whoever wins this week can build some momentum. The Jets played tough in a loss to the Chiefs while the Broncos made a massive
comeback to win their first game of the season. However, the Jets are the better team and will get the win.
Jets 24 Broncos 23
Confidence Level:4

Dallas Cowboys 3-1 @ San Francisco 49ers 4-0
In what is easily the game of the week, the Cowboys travel to San Francisco to play the team that eliminated them from the playoffs just 8
months ago. The Cowboys are my pick to win the NFC so a win here early in the season would make me feel like this is a different Dallas team, but the way San Fran is playing right now, i’m picking them to win.
Cowboys 23 49ers 26
Confidence Level:5
Monday, October 9th, 7:15 PM CT
Green Bay Packers 2-2 @ Las Vegas Raiders 1-3
Green Bay did not look good at all against the Lions last Thursday, but the extra time off should allow them to get healthy and bounce back against a
struggling Raiders team. Even if Jimmy G is back Green Bay should get the W.
Packers 27 Raiders 20
Confidence Level:7
