Week Three NFL Guesses

Have had a much better start to the 2016 picks over last year where I was under 500 after two weeks.  Last week's 10-6 and even better this week at 11-5 to give me a two week total of 21-11  Onward we go!

Houston 2-0 at New England 2-0:   Jacoby Brissette gets his first NFL start at quarterback with Brady out suspended and Jimmy G out with a shoulder.  I said this already this year that I hoped New England went 4-0 during Brady's absence just to show every one Brady is not as vital to Pats as believed.  They are 2-0 with out him and during the knee injury year were 11-5 without him.  Pats 24 Texans 20

Cardinals 1-1 at Bills 0-2:  Another nail in the coffin for changing coaches   Cardinals 26 Bills 16

Raiders 1-1 at Titans 1-1:  I like this years Raiders and don't care much for Nashville  Raiders 30 Titans 26

Redskins 0-2 @ Giants 2-0:  This is the kind of game the Giants lose but not this year Skins are toast.  Giants 23 Skins 16

Browns 0-2 at Dolphins 0-2:  One of the great matchups of the year.  Fish 23 Browns 20

Ravens 2-0 at Jags 0-2:  Most of the time when a team gets crushed like the Jags did in San Diego they have a better game next week.  They had better.  Jags 26 Ravens 23

Lions 1-1 at Packers 1-1:  Lions are always unpredictable while the Packers days of glory are slipping.  Pack 27 Lions 23

Bronco's 2-0 at Bengals 1-1:  This is a must for Bengals!  Cats 23 Denver 20

Vikings 2-0 at Panthers 1-1:  Talk about a big game but Vikings D will be a challenge for Cam and Company.  Panther 23 Vikes 17

Rams 1-1 at Tampa 1-1:  Tampa won't score many in this one.  The question is will Rams score more. Rams 16 Tampa 13

49'ers 1-1 at Seattle 1-1:  Does it always seem the Seahawks start slow so the time to get them is early in season.  Seattle 23 SF 19

Jets 1-1 at Chiefs 1-1:  Chiefs are almost 0-2 but a 21 point comeback saved their butt with San Diego.  I think Jets may give New England run for their money this year.  Jets 23 Chiefs 21

Chargers 1-1 at Colts 0-2:  So far Charger line is healthy and with protection Philip River passer rating is 120.  Andrew Luck is the most over rated quarterback in the history of football.  Chargers 30 Colts 26

Steelers 2-0 At Eagles 2-0: Don't know whether the Steelers can score enough to win this game.  Eagles 23 Steelers 17

Bears 2-0 at Cowboys 1-1:  Boys will win in Big D 33 Bears 17

Falcons 1-1 at Saints 0-2:  Saints in a lot of trouble if they can't get 20 off the Giants.  Falcons 26 Saints 17

College Football has the ACC in the spotlight Thursday night.  Clemson 3-0 travels to Georgia Tech 3-0.  After the scare Louisville has given the entire ACC Clemson had better win  this one if they still have any hopes of making the final four football playoff.
