![]() That’s why Washington is a trendy sleeper upset pick this week. The Commanders are scrappy, and Sam Howell does seem like he’s improving on every drive. Pick: Patriots 20-10 Buffalo Bills (-5.5) at Washington Commanders The Pats will come away with their first win of the season by more than a field goal. Bill Belichick will make Wilson’s life miserable on Sunday, and Mac Jones and the offense will do just enough to get into scoring range a few times. ![]() The Patriots have lost twice, but they’ve put up a solid fight both times against two of the best teams in the league (Eagles and Dolphins) right now. Welcome to the Zach Wilson Era for the Jets, where one of the most talented rosters in the NFL is a home dog against a mediocre 0-2 division rival. New England Patriots (-2.5) at New York Jets (No ties please!) So, with no real belief in either of these teams, give me the better quarterback in Justin Herbert. The good news for Vikings or Chargers fans is that someone has to win this game. ![]() While they’ve each found different ways to lose, they’ve both lost in bad ways. These two 2022 playoff teams are already both 0-2 at this point after some wild games. It’s only Week 3 of the NFL season, but we already may have the matchup between the two most disappointing teams in the league on tap. Pick: Titans 20-19 Los Angeles Chargers at Minnesota Vikings (-1.5) This will be a game where Derrick Henry rolls and Ryan Tannehill does just enough, while Deshaun Watson will try to do too much to make up for losing Chubb, which is why the Titans can not only cover but take this one straight-up. Cleveland is the exact opposite, and without Nick Chubb, they could have an even bigger personality crisis in Week 3, even with Kareem Hunt in place. However, Tennessee is also a team that knows exactly who it is and plays to its strengths. The Browns are a better team than the Titans from an overall talent perspective. Update: This pick was almost right on the money, with the 49ers earning a 30-12 win over the Giants Tennessee Titans at Cleveland Browns (-3.5) I have faith the Giants will get back on track at some point in the near future, but on Thursday, 3,000 miles from home, that’s not when it will happen, so the Giants-49ers pick here goes with the home team. Yes, coming back and beating the Cardinals on the road showed moxie, but come on, it was the Cardinals! Plus, it was a pyrrhic victory for the G Men, as losing Saquon Barkley for any time at all will be a massive blow for this team. The Giants allowed 60 points this season before scoring a single one of their own. So, let’s get right to the NFL Week 3 picks, predictions, and odds.Ĭourtesy of FanDuel, here are the NFL odds NFL Week 3 Picks, Predictions, Odds New York Giants at San Francisco 49ers (-10.5) Previous NFL Picks & Predictions: Week 1 | Week 2 When the dust settled, we were 11-5 straight up and 10-4-2 against the spread. Just a week later, though, things got a lot better. In Week 1, we went 9-7 straight-up and 6-10 against the spread here. Week 2 also got a bit easier to predict after we had a week of data to go on. We even saw both sides in the span of a few minutes in one game when the Denver Broncos hit a Hail Mary to have a chance to win but couldn’t convert the 2-point conversion. On the other, the Cleveland Browns suffered a devastating Nick Chubb injury on Monday Night Football. On one side, the New York Giants got outscored 60-0 through six quarters before coming back to win. This week was a roller coaster of emotions for many teams, filled with incredible highs and brutal lows. We eased back on the panic meter for Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills but cranked it up to 11 for Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals, and Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers. In the second week of the NFL season, we learned that the Philadelphia Eagles are still good, while the Chicago Bears are still not. The 49ers took care of business against the banged-up Giants, and now without further ado, let’s get to the rest our NFL Week 3 picks, predictions, and odds series. Week 2 of the 2023 NFL season was a wild one, and we kicked off the next slate with the New York Giants against the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday night.
