Week 4 is here and we have our first of the international games played in Europe kicking off. We’ll be breaking down all matchups this week. Through 3 weeks, we are 32-16 in predicting matchups.
Seattle Seahawks at Arizona Cardinals
This article was posted after this game was written, regardless of who won, we had the Seattle Seahawks on top. We did think the Seahawks would’ve had a more commanding win and JSN would’ve done better.
Winner: Seattle Seahawks
Minnesota Vikings at Pittsburgh Steelers (Dublin)
The first NFL game of the year in Europe is between the Minnesota Vikings and the Pittsbugh Steelers in Dublin. It’s seeing Carson Wentz play Aaron Rodgers, in a matchup seeing two quarterbacks in unfamiliar uniforms. This is going to be a defensive battle and we like hte Vikings better after obliterating the Cincinnati Bengals.
Winner: Minnesota Vikings
Washington Commanders at Atlanta Falcons
The Atlanta Falcons just got shut out by the Carolina Panthers, 30-0. They are a fade, even playing against a team playing their backup quarterback. Marcus Mariota is playing the former team that let him go and is out for revenge. It’s going to be a big offensive match for Mariota and the Commanders, even without McLaurin and Ekeler playing.
Winner: Washington Commanders
New Orleans Saints at Buffalo Bills
The biggest blowout of the week is going to be the New Orleans Saints at the Buffalo Bills. The Saints have yet to get a win and the Bills have yet to lose. Both teams continue their streaks as James Cook has a monster, multi-touchdown performance in the rout.
Winner: Buffalo Bills
Cleveland Browns at Detroit Lions
The 2nd blowout of the week is going to be the Cleveland Browns at the Detroit Lions. The Browns might’ve pulled off a big upset last week against the Green Bay Packers. But, the injuries to the Packers offense is what cost them the game. The Lions offense is fully healthy and is far superior than the Packers. The Lions are going to tear the Browns apart.
Winner: Detroit Lions
Carolina Panthers at New England Patriots
The Carolina Panthers made a statement win by shutting out the Atlanta Falcons 30-0 in week 3 and they are on a roll right now. The offense faces a Patriots team that just got locked down by the Pittsburgh Steelers. This game could go either way as both quarterbacks are inexperienced. The New England Patriots get the slight edge to us with the emergence of TreVeyon Henderson getting more usage and showing off his skills for New England.
Winner: New England Patriots
Los Angeles Chargers at New York Giants
The New York Giants made the decision to bench quarterback Russell Wilson after a tumultuous 0-3 start to the year. The Giants are putting in rookie Jaxson Dart and his first game will not be an easy one. Dart’s first start will be against the Los Angeles Chargers who are 3-0 with big wins against the Kansas City Chiefs and the Denver Broncos. Dart’s going to struggle against the Chargers, but the future is bright for the young gunslinger.
Winner: Los Angeles Chargers
Philadelphia Eagles at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
In a battle of the unbeatens, the Philadelphia Eagles visit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The run game is what’s going to influence this game on both sides of the ball. The Eagles are going to surprisingly contain Bucky Irving and Saquon Barkley is going to put on a clinic in a massive game as the reigning Super Bowl Champions move to 4-0.
Winner: Philadelphia Eagles
Tennessee Titans at Houston Texans
The battle for the bottom of the AFC South features the Tennessee Titans and the Houston Texans. Both the Texans and the Titans are bottom 5 in the league in yards and scoring. This is going to be a low scoring affair, but the Texans have the better defense which finally gets them something in the win column, despite the poor play of CJ Stroud.
Winner: Houston Texans
Indianapolis Colts at Los Angeles Rams
Danny Dimes and the Colts are riding high right now with an impressive 3-0 start. The Colts are going to continue to surprise people this year, but they are going to get their first loss on a tough road matchup against the Rams. The Rams have a very solid defense featuring two premier edge rushers in Byron Young and Jared Verse that are going to give Jones, the first real pressure that he’s seen this year.
Winner: Los Angeles Rams
Jacksonville Jaguars at San Francisco 49ers
Brock Purdy is back for the San Francisco 49ers and just in time to help the team go 4-0. The 49ers host the Jaguars who have been inconsistent, especially through the air as neither Brian Thomas Jr nor Travis Hunter have done much. The 49ers defense takes advantage of the mismatches and wins.
Winner: San Francisco 49ers
Baltimore Ravens at Kansas City Chiefs
One of these two teams is going to start the season at 1-3 and we just can’t fathom that. Both teams have had hard schedules to start the year,and not going to get much easier. Both teams need this win to stay in the playoff hunt and the team that needs it more is the Kansas City Chiefs who are in the tougher division. The Chiefs unfortunately aren’t going to win as the Baltimore Ravens are going to play their hearts out with big performances from both Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry on the ground.
Winner: Baltimore Ravens
Chicago Bears at Las Vegas Raiders
The Chicago Bears travel to Las Vegas in a game that is going to feature almost zero defense. Both have bad defenses and offenses that can put up some serious yards, despite the quarterback play. The Bears got a big win last week against the Cowboys, a better team than the Raiders and should win again here, despite the road matchup. Ben Johnson gets off to a 3-1 start as head coach of the Chicago Bears.
Winner: Chicago Bears
Green Bay Packers at Dallas Cowboys
In a wild turn of events, the Green Bay Packers lost to the Cleveland Browns in week 3. The Dallas Cowboys also lost in week 3, but it all went downhill for them after CeeDee Lamb went out. Without Lamb, the Cowboys offense is going to struggle against a top defense in Green Bay. It’s also the first matchup for Micah Parsons against his former team, ever since the Cowboys refused to pay the megastar what he’s worth. Parsons is going to be on a mission and it’s going to be a rough game for the Cowboys.
Winner: Green Bay Packers
New York Jets at Miami Dolphins
Both the New York Jets and Miami Dolphins are an embarrassing 0-3 and one team is going to move down to 0-4. Both teams aren’t good and only one can win to get out of the hole and that’s going to be the Miami Dolphins. This won’t be a pretty game, but the talent from the Dolphins playmakers is too much for than what the Jets defense can handle.
Winner: Miami Dolphins
Cincinnati Bengals at Denver Broncos
With Joe Burrow out of the picture for the foreseeable future, the Cincinnati Bengals are not a team to take seriously. They were embarrassing against the Minnesota Vikings, giving up 48 points in a 48-10 loss. The Bengals offense struggled even when Burrow was playing due to the offensive line and we know how bad this defense is. The Bengals need to be faded unless they have a favorable matchup, which this one is not, the Broncos take this with ease.
