Week 3 Predictions

By: Eric Brill

Last Week: 7-9
Season: 18-14

New York Giants (1-1) @ Carolina Panthers (1-1): Should be a nice duel between the ultimate in overrated and underrated quarterbacks.

Giants: 28
Panthers: 27

St. Louis Rams (1-1) @ Chicago Bears (1-1): Is it news to anyone that Jay Cutler is kind of a dick?

Bears: 24
Rams: 19

Buffalo Bills (1-1) @ Cleveland Browns (0-2): Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me... Oh wait, that applies to both teams...crap.

Bills: 23
Browns: 20

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1-1) @Dallas Cowboys (1-1): I love what Greg Schiano is doing with this team whereas there is no team more sporadic than the Cowboys. Uhh...

Cowboys: 23
Buccaneers: 22

Jacksonville Jaguars (0-2) @ Indianapolis Colts (1-1): Colts are going to make the playoffs. I'm hoping that if I keep saying it, it'll come true.

Colts: 24
Jaguars: 10

New York Jets (1-1) @ Miami Dolphins (1-1): Meltdown in Miami part two?

Dolphins: 26
Jets: 13

San Francisco 49ers (2-0) @Minnesota Vikings (1-1): You just know Randy Moss is going to score a touchdown against his former team.

49ers: 30
Vikings: 17

Kansas City Chiefs (0-2) @ New Orleans Saints (0-2): I still have both making the playoffs.

Saints: 31
Chiefs: 30

Detroit Lions (1-1) @ Tennessee Titans (0-2): We have our upset pick. I say CJ0.021K goes for 150 and two touchdowns.

Titans: 24
Lions: 20

Cincinnati Bengals (1-1) @ Washington Redskins (1-1): I thought Cleveland would beat Cincinnati last week... so of course I'm taking RG3.

Redskins: 23
Bengals: 13

Philadelphia Eagles (2-0) @ Arizona Cardinals (2-0): Ray Horton's defense has played great since mid way through last season and the Eagles have already turned the ball over nine times in two games.

Cardinals: 29
Eagles: 24

Atlanta Falcons (2-0) @ San Diego Chargers (2-0): The difference here is that I expect Atlanta to actually maintain their level of play.

Falcons: 37
Chargers: 24

Houston Texans (2-0) @ Denver Broncos (1-1): Toss up but I like Peyton today. The Broncos defense is far stingier than the two Houston has faced thus far.

Broncos: 27
Texans: 24

Pittsburgh Steelers (1-1) @ Oakland Raiders (0-2): C'mon. Oakland's front seven couldn't stop a thing last week (against the Dolphins of all teams) and now they've lost both their starting corners. Oh, and the running game is nowhere to be found.

Steelers: 34
Raiders: 16

New England Patriots (1-1) @ Baltimore Ravens (1-1): Going with the lesser of two evils here.

Patriots: 20
Ravens: 17

Green Bay Packers (1-1) @ Seattle Seahawks (1-1): This is an easy prediction on paper but you never know with Seattle's 12th man and an improved offensive attack. Not to mention Green Bay has shown they're capable of falling asleep at the wheel against lesser competition. I'm still going with them... I just wanted to point it out.

Packers: 38
Seahawks: 20
