Another week of football has come and gone. Now its time for our new week of football! Lets hope my Niners do a little better and my predictions are more accurate!
Thursday, September 26th
Dallas Cowboys (1-2) @ New York Giants (1-2)
Dallas is coming off a tough loss to the Ravens and the Giants are coming off a victory over the pitiful Browns. Malik Nabers is finally coming into his own and is a budding star. I have the Giants winning this, Danny Dimes be damned.
Predicted Final Score: 20-14 Giants
Sunday, September 29th
Cincinnati Bengals (0-3) @ Carolina Panthers (1-2)
The Andy Dalton revenge game is here. He looked good in place of Bryce Young last week against the Raiders but people forget Allegiant Stadium is the only place where the house loses. Andy Dalton will not exact his revenge on Cincinnati, whom are trying to stop starting the season 0-4. The Bengals should win, though I don’t always trust them.
Predicted Final Score: 14-7 Bengals
Los Angeles Rams (1-2) @ Chicago Bears (1-2)
The Rams are coming off an incredible win over the 49ers, the Bears just lost to the Colts. Need I say more? The Rams should win this handily.
Predicted Final Score: 42-14 Rams
New Orleans Saints (2-1) @ Atlanta Falcons (1-2)
The Saints are still looking like one of the dominant forces in the NFC. The Falcons are fighting for the NFC South title just the same. I don’t know which way this game will go but if I was a betting man? I’d take that fancy Carr in New Orleans.
Predicted Final Score: 32-21 Saints
Jacksonville Jaguars (0-3) @ Houston Texans (2-1)
Doug Pederson’s seat is on fire right now and he’s gonna coach his behind off in order to keep his job. This is an opportunity to prove the Jags still got it. They should beat the Texans by the skin of their teeth or so I hope.
Predicted Final Score: 24-21 Jaguars
Denver Broncos (1-2) @ New York Jets (2-1)
The Jets look like bonafide Super Bowl contenders. I have a tremendous amount of faith that they will be facing the 49ers in February this year. The Broncos are…the Broncos. They have a lot of work to do, and they won’t improve much this week. The Jets should do just fine.
Predicted Final Score: 35-7 Jets
Philadelphia Eagles (2-1) @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-1)
Tampa Bay is gunning for an NFC South title and to be seen as more than just a team that stumbled to playoff stunner. This is a rematch from last season’s playoffs, could we see the same result? I don’t think so. Eagles win.
Predicted Final Score:17-10 Eagles
Pittsburgh Steelers (3-0) @ Indianapolis Colts (1-2)
The Steelers are a good team. How good? I haven’t the slightest idea. I don’t think they’ll look good this week, where they’ll fall to the Colts. Anthony Richardson is bound to have a breakout game at some point, which I guess I’ll be predicting a lot this season.
Predicted Final Score: 24-17 Colts
Minnesota Vikings (3-0) @ Green Bay Packers (2-1)
The Packers look just fine with Malik Willis under center instead of Jordan Love. The Vikings look great with Sam Darnold. A Super Bowl contender? In Minnesota? Quit the crap, this game is a wake up call. They’re not even close. Packers take this game easy.
Predicted Final Score: 24-3 Packers
Washington Commanders (2-1)@ Arizona Cardinals (1-2)
Jayden Daniels is the real deal. The Commanders? Not so much. The Cardinals offense is firing on all cylinders and I’m not quite sure that the Commies have an answer for it. Easy victory for Mighty Mouse Kyler Murray.
Predicted Final Score: 35-14
New England Patriots (1-2) @ San Francisco 49ers (1-2)
The Pats have given a couple good teams a run for their money. It isn’t sustainable. The 49ers should use this as a game to regain their footing. Though, I felt the same about the Rams game.
Predicted Final Score: 21-7 49ers
Kansas City Chiefs (3-0) @ Los Angeles Chargers (2-1)
The Chargers are a good team in this new Harbaugh era and I have quite the confidence in their assortment of weapons. They won’t be able to stop the First Order that is the Chiefs. It will be a close and tight shootout, but Mahomes is worse than the Darth Vader that was Tom Brady. He’s Kylo Ren.
Predicted Final Score: 42-35 Chiefs
Cleveland Browns (1-2) @ Las Vegas Raiders (1-2)
A game I quite honestly could care less about. There are only a couple players I enjoy watching on these teams and even they have overstayed their welcome. The Raiders will try as they might and fall to the Browns. Maybe Deshaun Watson can remember how to play football for a play or two.
Predicted Final Score: 17-7 Browns
Buffalo Bills (3-0) @ Baltimore Ravens (1-2)
The Ravens aren’t exactly off to a hot start. Taking down a three and oh powerhouse? That might be enough to push them back into the contender sphere. Lamar looks as sharp as ever and the Bills lack of weapons has to catch up at some point, how about now?
Predicted Final Score: 21-14 Ravens
Monday, September 30th
Tennessee Titans (0-3) @ Miami Dolphins (1-2)
Tua is out yet another week for the Phins and the team is struggling, with or without him. I expect those struggles to continue with a good game from Will Levis and maybe Tony Pollard? Either way, one team has a quarterback, the other has no idea who will be under center come Sunday. Take that as you will.
Predicted Final Score: 21-3 Titans
Seattle Seahawks (3-0) @ Detroit Lions (2-1)
The big shocker so far this season has been the Seattle defense. They’ve played strong, smart, smashmouth football. What better way to ruin that than with a Dan Campbell-led team? The Lions should beat the ‘Hawks quite easily. The team is just so much better.
Predicted Final Score: 30-21
