Sunday
New York Giants (+3) @ Washington Football Team - Washington is coming off a bye, has gotten key pieces back like Brandon Scherff and Chase Young. They also haven't given up a defensive touchdown in their last 6 quarters of play. The Giants in the meantime did push the Tampa Bay Bucs to the brink, almost forcing an overtime game if not for a missed 2 point conversion. For now, I am leaning towards the Giants' defense slowing down Washington as they did against Tampa in what could be a close game.
Chicago Bears (+6) @ Tennessee Titans - The Bears struggle against the run but still have given QBs trouble with their pass rush and could slow down Tanehill on play action. The Titans' defense is significantly worse compared to the defenses the Bears have played lately, so perhaps Foles could play better.
Detroit Lions (+4) @ Minnesota Vikings - The Detroit Lions will be without Kenny Golladay so expect them to rely more on Marvin Jones and TJ Hockenson. The Vikings will feed Dalvin Cook who scored 4 touchdowns last week. Their defense also look surprisingly feisty against the Packers
Carolina Panthers @ Kansas Chiefs (-10) - The Panthers have been frisky defensively although perhaps the weather favored them significantly against the Falcons. Christian McCaffery is coming back. That being said the Chiefs are still likely to expose the Panthers defense.
Houston Texans (-6.5) @ Jacksonville Jaguars - These are two of the worst teams in the league. With Minshew out, the Texans could play better.
Baltimore Ravens (+1) (LOCK) @ Indianapolis Colts - This could be a relatively low scoring. I expect Lamar Jackson to bounce back from a poor showing last week. The Ravens could pressure Phillip Rivers into some bad decisions.
Seattle Seahawks (-3) (LOCK)@ Buffalo Bills - The Bills defense has been a bit disappointing although perhaps they regressed just because they played a division rival. This could be a relatively high scoring game. Look For Seattle's offense to get going even without Chris Carson.
Denver Broncos (+4.5) @ Atlanta Falcons - Drew Locke could have a decent week against the Falcons who is coming off a nice win. The Broncos are good against the run so look for Ryan to attack the Broncos through the air even without Calvin Ridley, Julio Jones could have a big week.
Las Vegas Raiders (+1) @ Los Angeles Chargers - The Raiders have been playing well offensively and the Chargers have blown multiple 16 point game leads in a row.
Pittsburgh Steelers (-14)(LOCK) @ Dallas Cowboys - The Dallas Cowboys due to injuries to Dak Presscott look to be one of the worst teams in the NFL while the Steelers seem to thrive in these games where they pick on lesser opponents.
Miami Dolphins (+6) @ Arizona Cardinals - Both of those teams defenses have picked it up which has allowed them to be competitive. With Gaskins out and Tua unproven, the Cardinals appear to be more explosive even with Kenyan Drake out although the Dolphins defense could do enough to keep it close.
New Orleans Saints @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-3.5) - In week 1 the Saints made struggle specifically Tom Brady who threw a pick six. The Bucs could establish more of a running game in this one. While the Bucs did struggle in the opener they are playing better. The Saints do have Michael Thomas returning although the Bucs may also unlock Antonio Brown in his debut.
Monday
New England Patriots (-7)(LOCK) @ New York Jets - The Patriots did struggle against the Bills but will likely take advantage of a Jets team that has been struggling immensely.
