NFL Week4

NFL WEEK 4 is heeeeeeere.

Notes from Week 3:

1. I owe an apology to the Vikings. That team is about as good on both sides of the ball as any team is.
2. The Patriots, too. Then again, what is going on with the QB situation. 1 suspended, two injured. Outside of that, they are the runaway best team of the AFC right now.
3. As much as I hate to praise them, The Eagles are pretty damn good as well.
4. The Steelers are not the best team in the league, especially the way the Eagles, with a rookie QB no less, made them look like a 2nd rate JV unit.
5. The Bears, well they are just terrible.
6. The Panthers are certainly experiencing the Super Bowl hangover. Cam Newton is seeing first hand what happens when ownership lets a lot of good players get away.
7. Broncos might not be "great" on offense, but that defense is ridiculously good.
8. Wish I could say that the Jaguars were a disappointment, but it's the Jaguars.
9. Sorry Texans, dead last in offense. Thought you would be a lot better than that.
10. Let us not forget the Ravens, 3-0.
11. Browns, Browns, NFL Clowns. hahaha, that one made me laugh.
12. Cardinals are a big disappointment right now.

Bye Week Teams - Packers, Eagles

Thursday Sept 29

(NFL) Dolphins (1-2) at Bengals (1-2) - The Dolphins barely, BARELY squeezed by the Browns last week, while the Bengals took a beatdown from the Broncos. Look, the Bengals are one of those teams that have all the potential and talent, but just can't get it together. A few players returning from suspension, should help that defense. the Dolphins, well, just another team in a tough division. The Bengals, to keep pace with the Ravens and Steelers, need to win this game, and they will, in a shootout. Bengals 31, Dolphins 28

Sunday October 2nd

(CBS) Colts (1-2) at Jaguars (0-3) - The Colts got their first win, and momentarily took their hand off the panic button. The Jaguars, thought they would be better, but they aren't. The Colts are going to get their footing and win this game, and have their bye week next week to get back into the win column a bit more. Colts 24, Jaguars 17

(CBS) Titans (1-2) at Texans (2-1) - The Texans have a whole ton of questions, and little to no answers for an offense that is dead last in lots of categories. Now with JJ Watt out for an undisclosed amount of time, it's time for Osweiller to step up and take control of this team. Fortunately, they play the Titans. Texans 20, Titans 7

(CBS) Browns (0-3) at Redskins (1-2) - The Redskins should beat an underwhelming Browns team by a healthy margin. Redskins 34, Browns 13

(FOX) Seahawks (2-1) at Jets (1-2) - The Seahawks finally got on track last week. But they travel east this week, and although I believe they can do it, I am not sure they can play that great on the road this season. Jets 24, Seahawks 17

(CBS) Bills (1-2) at Patriots (3-0) - The Patriots won't play mind games with the Bills the way Rex Ryan tries to play them. Surprisingly, the Patriots haven't missed a beat without Tom Brady, which should scare the rest of the league. I don't see the Bills marching into Foxborough and winning. Patriots 20, Bills 9

(FOX) Panthers (1-2) at Falcons (2-1) - If the Panthers showed us one thing last week, is that if you routinely blitz Cam Newton you will get a high number of sacks this season. The Vikings might have exposed a weakness in the Panthers armor. Flipside, for once the Falcons looked good. good enough to beat the Panthers? I want to say no, but I think they will show that last weeks outburst wasn't a one week event. Falcons 27, Panthers 14

(CBS) Raiders (2-1) at Ravens (3-0) - The real first test for both teams. Sure the Raiders have a loss, but two teams that could be playoff contenders going head to head. should be good. I think the Raiders win a hard fought game. Raiders 24, Ravens 21

(FOX) Lions (1-2) at Bears (0-3) - Lions should Maul the Bears. Lions 34, Bears 10

(CBS) Broncos (3-0) at Buccaneers (1-2) - Broncos should stomp the Bucs and fluster Winston in a series of turnovers. Defense should have one or two defensive touchdowns this week. Broncos 34, Bucs 9

(FOX Rams (2-1) at Cardinals (1-2) - I am not sure which Cardinals team shows up, but everyone better stop sleeping on the Rams, they are a little better than we realize, especially on defense. Cardinals play good at home, but they better get out ahead, and fast. Cardinals 27, Rams 14

(FOX) Saints (0-3) at Chargers (1-2) - Here is one thing I know, Drew Brees still has a vendetta against the Chargers for dumping him back in the day. I expect a good day from him, but the Chargers win. Chargers 28, Saints 24

(FOX) Cowboys (2-1) at 49ers (1-2)- Are we surprised that the Cowboys are 2-1? Yes. Yes we are. Rookie QB, and they could easily be 3-0. 49ers aren't bad, but they just haven't figured out how to put it all together. They are at home, so I think they sneak by the Cowboys this week. 49ers 20, cowboys 17

(NBC) Chiefs (2-1) at Steelers (2-1) - The Steelers played poor last week. Wait, that's a terrible use of words. They played like a steaming pile of dog crap. Nailed it. They get Le'Veon Bell back, so that offense should have some pep. Should be a good defensive struggle with the Chiefs. Steelers squeak by. Steelers 30, Chiefs 27

Monday October 3rd

(ESPN) Giants (2-1) at Vikings (3-0) - Alright, I wasn't sold on the Vikings, but that defense is legit. The offense, surprisingly, is really good. They could be a legit contender. they have to win games like last week (Panthers) and against the Giants this week. I think the Giants play well, but they will fall to the Vikings. Vikings 24, Giants 10
