(7-8 towards the unfold in 2022)
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (-3.5) over Tennessee Titans
I usually don’t wager on Matt Ryan. But the 1-1-1 Colts are taking this recreation at house to select up their second straight win. And it’ll be on the legs of star working again Jonathan Taylor, who ranks third within the NFL in dashing this season, averaging 95.3 rush yards per recreation. The 1-2 Titans — who, just like the Colts, are additionally coming off their first win of the season — rank twenty ninth within the league in rush protection, permitting 145 rush yards per recreation. The half-point is harmful. But the Colts impressed me with their win over Kansas City final Sunday. I’ll take Indy to win and canopy.
BALTIMORE RAVENS (+3) over Buffalo Bills
The 2-1 Bills are coming off their first lack of the season. They proved to be human within the Miami warmth, dropping to the Dolphins. Lamar Jackson may not be human although. He proved that with one other MVP efficiency in a win over the Patriots in Foxboro final week. This could possibly be a shootout. But if the 2-1 Ravens can play any protection in any respect — higher than they did of their final house shootout towards Miami in Week 2 — then I like them getting factors right here. Total disrespect making Jackson a house canine. Give me Baltimore.
GREEN BAY PACKERS (-9.5) over New England Patriots
Mac Jones is out with a excessive ankle sprain. You need me to take Brian Hoyer at Lambeau? No probability. The 1-2 Patriots aren’t successful this recreation. The solely query is, will their protection be ok to cowl. Green Bay is 2-1 and has received two straight, together with final Sunday’s big win over the Buccaneers in Tampa Bay. Aaron Rodgers lacks offensive weapons proper now, however he’s nonetheless Rodgers, which is nice sufficient to beat this mediocre Patriots protection by 10 at house.
LAS VEGAS RAIDERS (-2.5) over Denver Broncos
The Raiders are hungry for his or her first win of the season, they usually’ve received their final 4 video games towards Denver. The Broncos are the one AFC West workforce that Derek Carr has a successful document towards. Sunday in Vegas may not be concerning the quarterbacks although. Running again Josh Jacobs is 5-0 towards Denver in his profession, with seven dashing touchdowns and a median of 94 rush yards per recreation. Raiders win by a subject purpose at house.
TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (-1) over Kansas City Chiefs
Following a Week 3 loss at house to the Packers, I count on Tom Brady to have his A-game in primetime, on Sunday Night Football. The 2-1 Chiefs are additionally coming off a loss, to the Colts in Indy. The distinction right here will likely be that Brady is getting his weapons again. Mike Evans is getting back from a suspension. Chris Godwin and Julio Jones are anticipated to be game-time selections. Tampa has the No. 1 protection within the NFL. Brady and the 2-1 Bucs received’t lose two straight house video games.
