Jayden Daniels and Joe Burrow lead their teams without
a TD or turnover. This was the first
time since 1940 that both teams did that.
Dallas Cowboys(-5.5) @ New York Giants- The
Cowboys have had the Giants number the last few meetings including some massive
blowouts. The Giants do have a better
receiving corps and a better running game not to mention that Dallas is dealing
with a few in. For some reason I think
the owboys will rebound after a loss to the Ravens although I would be somewhat
delighted if Daniel Jones can pull the Giants back to .500.
New Orleans Saints (+2) @ Atlanta Falcons- Cousins
has looked better and Derek Carr struggled against the Eagles. Not
sure which version of either quarter back shows up but I have been more
impressed with the Saints in weeks 1-2.
Los Angeles Rams(+3) @ Chicago Bears - Caleb Williams did throw for 300 plus yards
but the Rams looked tough against 49ers. Kyren Williams had 3 touchdowns last week and
appears to have absorbed the volume with Kupp and Puka out.
Minnesota Vikings(+2.5) @ Green Bay Packers
- The Vikings look a lot better than
last season but are dealing with a few injuries but so are the Packers. Malik Willis has been playing well but the
Vikings defense has been playing well.
Matt Lafleur has been coaching the Packers.
Pittsburgh Steelers (-2)(LOCK) @ Indianapolis
Colts - This seems like a game where the
Steeler defense makes Anthony Richardson’s life miserable. Justin Fields isn’t exactly lighting it up
though which could keep Indianapolis in it if Michael Pittman figures it
out.
Denver Broncos (+7.5) @ New York Jets - Both teams came away with nice wins. Aaron Rodgers is looking like Aaron Rodgers
again and the Broncos blew out the Bucs.
Perhaps the Broncos defense can do enough the slow down the Broncos
offense but the Jets have numerous offensive weapons that could pull
ahead.
Washington Commanders (+3.5) @ Arizona
Cardinals- Kingsbury goes against his
former protégé Kyler Murray. Jayden
Daniels can’t keep playing this well although teams that have played the Lions
the previous week have not covered since last year. Although Washington’s defense could allow Marvin
Harrison Jr. to have a great game.
Philadelphia Eagles @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+2)
- The Eagles go against the team that
eliminated them last season. It looks
like AJ Brown is not going to play.
Cincinnati Bengals (-4.5) @ Carolina Panthers
- Andy Dalton goes against his former
team and looks to put them at 0-4. It
still feels like the Bengals offense is finding its rhythm and they have to
win. Although they do remind me of
Washington teams in the past that played down to the level of their competition.
Jacksonville Jaguars (+7) @ Houston Texans –
Both teams got blown out. The Texans
offense could do enough to pull out the win but perhaps Jaguars will show signs
of life after an embarrassing loss against a division rival.
New England Patriots @ San Francisco 49ers (-10)
– The 49ers look to pull it together after losing to a division rival. The Patriots were surprisingly competitive the
first two weeks but Jacoby Brissett and the team seems to have regressed to the
mean. I wonder if we see Drake Maye
soon.
Cleveland Browns @ Las Vegas Raiders (+1) -
Both teams are coming off bad losses to 0-2 teams where they were expected to
win by large margins. The Raiders with
Minshew may come out on top given that Watson is having trouble putting it
together.
Kansas City Chiefs @ Los Angeles Chargers (+8.5)- It
maybe Heinickie time again if Herbert can’t go.
The Chiefs offense has been playing pretty poorly although their defense
keeps getting the wins.
Buffalo Bills (+3) @ Baltimore Ravens – Josh Allen looked
great against the Jaguars. The Ravens
defense has looked shaky. The Ravens need
Lamar to come through. The Bills defense
will be
Tennessee Titans @ Miami Dolphins (+1.5) – Perhaps
the Dolphins will show signs of life at home against the Titans who also looked
shaky against the Jets.
Seattle Seahawks @ Detroit Lions (-5)- Both
teams are undefeated but the Seahawks are dealing with a few injuries in the
backfield. The Lions look to solidify
their case as being the best team in the NFC East after knocking off the Bucs last
week.
Week 3 Against the Spread- 9-7
Week 3 Straight up - 8-8
Week 3 Locks - 0-1
2024 Against the Spread- 24-26
2024 Locks – 1-5
2024 Straight up- 30-18
