Steelers @ Colts. Who wins?
Don’t look now but Pittsburgh is 3-0 and the defense looks eerily similar to the glory days of this franchise in years past. Speaking of defense, it’s hard to trust Anthony Richardson in this spot against such a strong pass rush. It may be a tight game, but the Black and Gold are moving to 4-0 after this one!
Colts +2
Steelers+2
Vikings @ Packers. Who wins?
Obviously, the main issue in this one is the health of Packers QB Jordan Love. It looks as if he will play, but how mobile will he be. I like Love (see what I did there?), but we just can’t ignore the major roll that this Vikings team has been on. Give me Minny!
Vikings +2
Packers +2
Saints @ Falcons. Who wins?
New Orleans came back down to earth a bit in Week 3, as they blew a lead late against Philly. That’s the loss that can linger for a few days, so I’m going with the Dirty Birds here. Look for Bijan Robinson to slice through this Saints defense just like Saquon Barkley did last week.
Saints+2
Falcons+2
Rams at Bears. Who wins?
The Rams pulled off a miraculous comeback against the 49ers last week. The win had to be satisfying for Sean McVay and company, but they were outgained by San Fran 425 to 296. Backing a rookie QB scares me, but I’ll side with Caleb Williams and ‘Da Bears’ in this one!
Rams+3
Bears+2
Eagles at Bucs. Who wins?
Philly prevailed against New Orleans last week, but they lost DeVonta Smith in the process. That’s a huge blow to a squad that’s already missing AJ Brown. Tampa, meanwhile, was embarrassed by the lowly Broncos at home. This is a great ‘buy-low’ spot on the Bucs!
Eagles+2
Bucs +3
Browns at Raiders. Who wins?
Boy Howdy, this is a tough game to pick! The Raiders looked inept against the Panthers and Andy Dalton last week. The Browns didn’t look much better against the Giants. I like Cleveland’s defense quite a bit more, so we’ll side with the Brownies on the road.
Raiders +2
Browns +2
Bills at Ravens. Who Wins?
This Sunday Night Football matchup should be a fun one! The Ravens running game dominated the Cowboys in Week 3, and it wouldn’t surprise me if they have some success against the Bills in this spot. Having to spot both Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson is a tough proposition.
Bills +3
Ravens +2
Jaguars @ Texans. Who wins?
This is a good bounceback spot for Houston, who looked awful against Minnesota last week. I still don’t know quite what to make of this Jags offense. Look for CJ Stroud to put together a strong performance coming off one of his roughest starts as a pro. Give me Houston!
Jaguars+3
Texans+1
Pick a player to score a touchdown:
Garrett Wilson is the hands-down favorite in this group, but I’m thinking that Broncos All-World cornerback Pat Surtain II does a good job of containing him on Sunday. I’m rolling with Kyle Pitts to get his 2nd TD of the season!
Garrett Wilson (NYJ) +1
Kyle Pitts (ATL) +2
Courtland Sutton (DEN) +3
Jamal Williams (NO) +4
None of These +2
Which QB throws for the most passing yards?
This is a good “buy-low” spot for Trevor Lawrence in my opinion. The whole world just saw him and the Jags get throttled on Monday Night Football. This should be a very focused Jacksonville team in Week 4. Let’s roll with Sunshine!
Derek Carr (NO) +2
Trevor Lawrence (JAX) +2
Andy Dalton (CAR) +2
Which of these players will have the most receiving yards?
I’m going to roll with the wideout with the most established QB on his team. Adams has the most talent of the bunch, but Las Vegas coach Antonio Pierce has hinted that he may move away from Gardner Minshew in Week 4. Moore is a stud, but I’m always hesitant to count on a rookie QB. That leaves Olave as my logical choice!
DJ Moore (CHI) +2
Chris Olave (NO) +2
Davante Adams (LV) +2
