Thursday night
New York Giants at San Francisco 49ers : The 49ers are loaded this season, while the Giants seem under-armed. 49ERS, 30-13
Sunday early games
Atlanta Falcons at Detroit Lions : The Falcons are the surprise team of this season, and I think that surprise will continue. The Lions won't make it easy for them, though. FALCONS, 28-27
Buffalo Bills at Washington Commanders : The Bills found their footing again last week, and that bodes ill for the Commanders. They've had a nice season so far, but they've hit a speed bump. BILLS, 34-23
Denver Broncos at Miami Dolphins : The Dolphins are a potent team. They seem likely to make the playoffs again this year. DOLPHINS, 27-13
Houston Texans at Jacksonville Jaguars : The Texans are a bit of a disappointment so far. Their defense is evaporating, but the Jags offense plays slower, so this won't be a blowout. That won't make the Houston fans feel any better. JAGS, 21-13
Indianapolis Colts at Baltimore Ravens: On the opposite end of the defensive spectrum is Baltimore, who is stiff. RAVENS, 28-10
LA Chargers at Minnesota Vikings : It has been a disappointing season so far for the Vikings, but they have the talent to turn it around. This seems like a good game to do that. VIKINGS, 23-17
New England Patriots at New York Jets : The Jets have a stiff defense, which will make this a much lower-scoring game than these two teams usually play. JETS, 16-13
New Orleans Saints at Green Bay Packers : The Saints are doing well, while the Pack came back to earth after their scrubbing of a weak Bears team. The Saints wear down defenses with their run-oriented game, and the Pack's bench is thin. SAINTS, 34-28
Tennessee Titans at Cleveland Browns : If the Browns can prevent screwing themselves, they have the skill to win this one, although the Titans defense won't make it easy. If that defense forces a turnover or two, the Titans will win this game. BROWNS, 20-17
Sunday late games
Carolina Panthers at Seattle Seahawks : Carolina is struggling, and the Seahawks can be dangerous at home. SEAHAWKS, 28-20
Chicago Bears at Kansas City Chiefs : The defending Super Bowl Champs host the worst team of the league. I don't think I want to witness the carnage. CHIEFS, 38-13
Dallas Cowboys at Arizona Cardinals : The Cowboys are the most dominant team in the league right now. COWBOYS, 40-20
Sunday night
Pittsburgh Steelerrs at Las Vegas Raiders : Despite a victory over Cleveland, the Steelers are struggling, and the Raiders can be a tricky opponent. RAIDERS, 17-13
Monday Night Football
Philadelphia Eagles at Tampa Bay Bucs : The Eagles are flying high. The Bucs can be a tough opponent, especially at home, so they might surprise, but I'm sticking with the skill team. EAGLES, 27-24
Los Angeles Rams at Cincinnati Benglas : The Bengals are stumbling. Despite the big contract, Joe Burrow is not helping them enough. RAMS, 20-16
