Dallas Cowboys (+2.5) @ Atlanta Falcons - The Cowboys are in desperation mode needing a win here. They looked fairly competent at times against the 49ers but ultimately came up short. If the Cowboys lose, Mike McCarthy's chances of surviving this season greatly diminish.
Miami Dolphins @ Buffalo Bills (-6) - Typically one could assume a close division rivalry game. But Tua looks a bit conservative in his level of play which could make the battle slightly more uphill on the road in a division rivalry game.
Las Vegas Raiders (+7) @ Cincinnati Bengals - The Bengals defense has usually kept their opponents in games. The Raiders could be in trouble though if this game becomes a shootout.
Los Angeles Chargers (+2) @ Cleveland Browns - This could be a trap game for the Chargers who are traveling from west to east. Still, Jameis Winston has been an up and down player in his career and the Chargers defense will see if they can force some turnovers.
New England Patriots (+3.5) @ Tennessee Titans - Both teams are fairly evenly matched and perhaps the Patriots can continue some of their momentum to make this a close game with Drake Maye back in the lineup.
Washington Commanders @ New York Giants - The Commanders could be due for a let down against the Giants after a miraculous win against the Bears. Still, it seems like Washington will not take the Giants lightly after a close game in week 2. Washington did move the ball well but will need to convert in the red zone- a problem they also had against the Bears. Washington's defense has looked sharper although they will need to be on point against Jones who has had some success against Washington in past seasons.
New Orleans Saints (-7) @ Carolina Panthers - Derek Carr makes his return. He could be rusty but the Saints already blew out the Panthers earlier this season.
Denver Broncos (+9.5) @ Baltimore Ravens - This could be a get right game for the Ravens after a terrible loss to the Broncos. Still this seems like a lot of points especially since the Broncos have been competitive lately.
Chicago Bears (+1) @ Arizona Cardinals - Interesting game against two teams competing for a playoff spot. Caleb Williams could bounce back and the Bears defense may be the separating factor of this game.
Detroit Lions @ Green Bay Packers (+3.5) - The Packers will have Jordan Love against this one and the Lions while having impressive victories will finally be tested on the road in a division game.
Seattle Seahawks @ Los Angeles Rams (-1.5)(LOCK) - I didn't get the memo last week, but it looks like the Rams are finally healthy. It could be tough on the road for the Rams, but the overreaction from beating the Vikings could be that the Rams could make a potential playoff run.
Indianapolis Colts (+5.5) @ Minnesota Vikings- Joe Flacco could do enough to keep this game close.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Kansas City Chiefs (-9)- The Chiefs have routinely kept their opponents in games but the Bucs are dealing with a fair share of injuries that may force them to tap out if Mahomes shows up.
