Week 4 Predictions

By: Eric Brill

Last Week: 7-9

Season: 25-23

Cleveland Browns @ Baltimore Ravens: I'll hope against hope that the Browns will win, but I doubt it.

Ravens: 34

Browns: 17

Carolina Panthers @ Atlanta Falcons: This has the makings of a trap game for Atlanta.

Falcons: 27

Panthers: 24

New England Patriots @ Buffalo Bills: Wouldn't it be wonderful if New England somehow dropped three straight?

Patriots: 41

Bills: 24

Minnesota Vikings @ Detroit Lions: Starting to really like Minnesota as a sleeper team.

Vikings: 24

Lions: 20

Tennessee Titans @ Houston Texans: Every team that was ranked #1 in the power rankings, has gone on to lose their next game. (Packers, Patriots, 49ers, now the Texans?)

Titans: 30

Texans: 16

San Diego Chargers @ Kansas City Chiefs: Whatta ya know? Jamaal Charles is still incredible.

Chiefs: 26

Chargers: 23

San Francisco 49ers @ New York Jets: Moment of truth. I've been predicting this as the week Tebow takes over as the Jets starter since the schedule came out. The questions is, will there be Tebow magic?

49ers: 20

Jets: 17

Seattle Seahawks @ St. Louis Rams: Seattle all but affirmed my opinion that they have the best defense in football.

Seahawks: 24

Rams: 10

Miami Dolphins @ Arizona Cardinals: Absolutely love Ray Horton's defense. 

Cardinals: 17

Dolphins: 13

Oakland Raiders @ Denver Broncos: Do you honestly think that Peyton is going to start 1-3?

Broncos: 28

Raiders: 19

Cincinnati Bengals @ Jacksonville Jaguars: Closer call than the analysts will give it credit for.

Bengals: 23

Jaguars: 22

New Orleans Saints @ Green Bay Packers: This is the toughest call of the week. Could the Saints honestly start 0-4? Could the Packers honestly start 1-3? I've picked both to win every week but somehow the thought of Drew Brees letting New Orleans fall this far is impossible to me.

Saints: 34

Packers: 31

Washington Redskins @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers: I love RG3, not the Redskins.

Buccaneers: 30

Redskins: 24

New York Giants @ Philadelphia Eagles: Philadelphia should be 0-3. Their offense is a disaster and they're starting to realize that 2010 was the fluke, not 2011.

Giants: 38

Eagles: 24

Chicago Bears @ Dallas Cowboys: The Bears offense has played poorly the last two weeks. Hopefully the return of Forte will remedy the situation but it depends on whether Romo plays like week one or the last two.

Bears: 31

Cowboys: 23
