Our Week 2 NFL selections went a respectable 6-5 on the app for the second week in a row. A nice underdog win by the Browns was a key piece of our success. Let’s dive into the 11 questions below to see how we do in Week 3. Enjoy the games and good luck to all!
Bears @ Colts. Who wins?
This is a great bounce back spot for Indy after dropping a tough one to the Packers in Week 2. Indy is now 0-2 on the season, so they’ll be chomping at the bit to get their first win. I’m not completely in love with Indy’s defense, but they should be able to make Caleb Williams a bit uncomfortable in his 3rd NFL start.
Colts +2
Bears+2
Chargers @ Steelers. Who wins?
Here’s a nice battle between two 2-0 squads. With the health of Justin Herbert kind of up in the air, I’ll roll with the terrible towels at home in the Steel City. The Steelers should load up the box to try and slow down JK Dobbins and this stout Chargers running game.
Steelers +2
Chargers +3
Texans @ Vikings. Who wins?
I’m going to roll with another home dog in this one. The Vikings shocked the world in Week 2 by taking down the defending NFC champion 49ers. Look for Sam Darnold to keep surprising some folks by pulling off his 2nd upset in a row. SKOL!
Vikings +2
Texans +2
Eagles at Saints. Who wins?
Philly is the better team, but this is a tough spot for them, as they’ll be on a short week after playing on Monday Night Football. New Orleans has looked much better than most people thought and we all know that The Big Easy will be rocking. Give me the Saints in a tight one!
Eagles +2
Saints +2
Packers at Titans. Who wins?
Malik Willis will be fired up to prove something to his former team in this interesting matchup. That said, Tennessee’s defense has improved and they obviously know all about Willis and his limitations. Let’s play the Titans and hope for no more stupid turnovers from Will Levis.
Titans +2
Packers +2
Ravens at Cowboys. Who wins?
Dallas was embarrassed in a big way in Week 2 with a resounding loss to New Orleans. This is a good bounce back spot for the ‘Boys at home in Big D. The Ravens will be out for blood after losing a shocker to the Raiders, but something just isn’t quite right with their defense. Give me Dallas!
Ravens +2
Cowboys +2
Chiefs at Falcons. Who Wins?
Rule No. 1 of any football contest is as follows: Never go against Patrick Mahomes! Sure, Atlanta looked great in their comeback win against Philly, but they still have a ton of issues. Give me the Chiefs in what should be a fantastic matchup on Sunday Night Football.
Chiefs +1
Falcons +2
Dolphins @ Seahawks. Who wins?
Tua Tagovailoa getting another concussion last week makes this game a little less appealing. While I don’t think Skylar Thompson is a terrible backup, he’ll have a tough time in this one on the road in a rowdy environment. Let’s pick the Seahawks and hope that Kenneth Walker is back in the lineup!
Dolphins +2
Seahawks +1
Lions at Cardinals. Who Wins?
Give me Dan Campbell and the Lions in a bounce back spot all day long. Detroit let one get away against Tampa Bay last week, so they’ll be supremely focused in this one. Arizona is better than people realize, but I look for Detroit’s defense to get plenty of pressure on Kyler Murray.
Lions +1
Cardinals +2
Pick a player to score a touchdown:
Mike Evans is easily the favorite in this group, but I’m thinking that Baker Mayfield continues to feed his slot receiver, Chris Godwin, more often in this one. I don’t see any of the other three doing much damage on Sunday, so give me the None of These!
Mike Evans (TB) +1
Calvin Ridley (TEN) +2
Jaylen Waddle (MIA) +3
Adonai Mitchell (IND) +4
None of These +2
Which QB throws for the most passing yards?
This Arizona Cardinals team is better than people think now that Kyler Murray is finally healthy. Sure, Detroit’s defense will be fired up after dropping a shocker to Tampa Bay last week. That said, I’m expecting a ton of offense in that game, so Kyler gets my vote!
Derek Carr (NO) +2
Sam Darnold (MIN) +2
Kyler Murray (AZ) +2
Which of these players has the most receiving yards?
I’m going to roll with the savvy veteran, DK Metcalf, on this one. Geno Smith isn’t the best QB in the league, but he has a good rapport with Metcalf and there are plenty of holes in this Miami secondary. Moore may have a nice game for Chicago, but I don’t like trusting rookie QBs. Olave is a stud, but most of the Saints offense revolves around Alvin Kamara.
DJ Moore (CHI) +2
Chris Olave (NO) +2
DK Metcalf (SEA) +2
