The NFL season is flying by, and this week started with the Los Angeles Chargers getting a big win over the Minnesota Vikings. The Chargers are now 5-3, and the Vikings are 3-4 after losing their last two. Now, other teams around the league are seeking wins, and some teams have better chances than others. Here is a look at upcoming games and what to expect.
Miami Dolphins vs Atlanta Falcons (Falcons -7.5) – The Miami Dolphins are in a tough spot, as they have a record of 1-6. They beat the New York Jets a few weeks back, but since then, they have lost their last three games. Their last loss was against the Cleveland Browns, who beat them 31-6. Miami is looking to get a win, but it may not happen this week. The Atlanta Falcons are 3-3 this season, and they lost their last game. The San Francisco 49ers beat them 20-10, and before that, the Falcons beat the Washington Commanders and the Buffalo Bills. Atlanta can get back on track and become a game over .500, and there is a strong chance they will do that.
Prediction: Falcons win
San Francisco 49ers vs Houston Texans (Texans -2) – The 49ers are playing well, as they have a record of 5-2. They lost to the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but in their last game, they beat the Falcons. They are on the road for this game, and they take on a 2-4 team. The Houston Texans lost their last game, as the Seattle Seahawks beat them 27-19. San Francisco has played well on the road this season, as they are 3-1 in away games. So, they can keep that going and get a win here.
Prediction: 49ers take it
Chicago Bears vs Baltimore Ravens (Ravens -7) – The Chicago Bears are on a roll as of late, and they have won four games in a row. They are now 4-2, and in their last game, they beat the New Orleans Saints. On the other side, the Baltimore Ravens have struggled. They are 1-5, with their only win being against the Cleveland Browns. Lamar Jackson was listed as questionable for this matchup, but now he will be out. So, that impacts the Ravens even more. The Bears can keep their momentum going, and while it may be a challenge, they can get the win.
Prediction: The Bears win
Buffalo Bills vs Carolina Panthers (Bills -7) – The Buffalo Bills have lost their last two games, as they lost to the New England Patriots and the Falcons in those games, and they are now 4-2. They started off hot, and now, they take on a team that has won their last three games. The Carolina Panthers have defeated the Dolphins, the Dallas Cowboys and the Jets. The Bills are trying to snap their skid, and despite the Panthers playing well, Buffalo can win.
Prediction: Bills win
New York Giants vs Philadelphia Eagles (Eagles -7.5) – The New York Giants are on the road for their next game, and they have yet to get a road win. They have a record of 2-5, and they are at the bottom of the NFC East. Now, they are taking on the top team in that division. The Philadelphia Eagles beat the Vikings in their last game after losing to the Giants on the road. This time, they can get some payback, and as a team that is 2-1 at home, they can pull off a win.
Prediction: Eagles win
Cleveland Browns vs New England Patriots (Patriots -7) – The Cleveland Browns have their second win after beating the Dolphins in a blowout. Dillon Gabriel, their new QB1, got his first home win, as the Browns’ defense had their typical performance, and Quinshon Judkins, a rookie running back, had three touchdowns. Cleveland is taking on a team that is at the top of the AFC East. The New England Patriots have won their last four games, and they should get their fifth here.
Prediction: Patriots win
New York Jets vs Cincinnati Bengals (Bengals -6)- The New York Jets are having a bad year, and it may get worse. They have not won a game up to this point, and they will have a hard time getting one. They are on the road and they are taking on the Cincinnati Bengals, who are 3-4 after winning their last game. They beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 33-31 after a late field goal put them over the top. It was a competitive game, and now, they can relax a bit and pick up another win.
Prediction: Bengals win
Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs New Orleans Saints (Saints -3.5) – The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are having a good year, as they are 5-2 up to this point. They lost their last game, as the Detroit Lions beat them 24-9. Now, they have a chance to recover, as they take on the New Orleans Saints. The Saints are 1-6 this season, and they have lost their last two games. Their only win this season was a home game, but they will have trouble getting a win in this matchup. Tampa Bay should take it and bounce back from their loss.
Prediction: Buccaneers win
Tennessee Titans vs Indianapolis Colts ( Colts -14.5) – The Tennessee Titans are 1-6, and they have lost their last two games. They lost to the Las Vegas Raiders and the New England Patriots. They are on the road as they take on a team who are 6-1. The Indianapolis Colts have won their last three games, and with the way the Titans are playing, the Colts will pick up another win. This should be a big win for them, as they keep their streak alive.
Prediction: Colts win
Dallas Cowboys vs Denver Broncos (Broncos -3.5) – The Dallas Cowboys are 3-3-1 after a big win over the Washington Commanders. They bounced back from their loss to the Panthers, and now they can get their second win in a row. Their opponent, the Denver Broncos, is having a good year as they are 5-2. They are also on a four-game winning streak. This may be a good game, but the Broncos should keep their streak alive.
Prediction: Broncos win
Green Bay Packers vs Pittsburgh Steelers (Packers -3) – The Green Bay Packers are 4-1-1 after winning their last two games. They beat the Bengals and the Arizona Cardinals, and now they are on the road as they face the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers are 4-2 after losing their last game. They lost a close game to the Bengals, and they want to recover. However, the Packers may take this one.
Prediction: The Packers win
Washington Commanders vs Kansas City Chiefs (Chiefs -12.5) – The Washington Commanders are trying to reach .500 status. They are also trying to snap their losing streak. However, it will not be easy. They will play without Jayden Daniels in this game, and they are facing a tough opponent in the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs are 4-3 after winning their last two games. They beat the Lions and the Raiders, and this is a chance to add to that streak. Chances are, they will do just that.
Prediction: Chiefs win
