2022 NFL Week 3 Predictions

 2022 NFL Week 3 Predictions 

Browns -4.5 over Steelers, 29-17 (Actual)

-Even without the gift touchdown at the end, easily had this one. Thank you to Chubb, who I used in my KOM league. 

 

Lions +6 over Vikings, 31-33

-I like both teams actually, it’s just a lot of points. 

 

Ravens -3 over Pats, 29-23

-Even with all of the injuries for Baltimore, it’s just a significantly more dynamic team. 

 

Saints -2.5 over Panthers, 19-16

-What an ugly game that I want no part of. 

 

Bears -3 over Texans, 20-16

-See Saints v Panthers. 

 

Chiefs -5.5 over Colts, 31-10

-Why in the heck is this only 5.5? The KC disrespect is high right now.

 

Eagles -6.5 over Commanders, 30-22

-*whispers* The Eagles are one of the elite teams. *whispers*

 

Dolphins +4.5 over Bills, 36-34

-So many points. But, the Dolphins are at home, getting that magical 4.5, and Buffalo is missing so many vital defenders. 

 

Bengals -6 over Jets, 27-13

-If the Bengals don’t get it right here…everyone is in a lot of trouble. 

 

Raiders -2 over Titans, 24-20

-This should be the “Derrick Henry, grind it out, defensive stand, 37 minutes of possession” Tennessee win. But I don’t think they can do that anymore. And while both teams are 0-2, the Raiders’ division makes their situation far more desperate.

 

Jags +4.5 over Chargers, 28-30

-This is just the smarter play to cover the range of outcomes. Chargers win in a blowout with Herbert (I have them winning). Chargers got out a win with a banged up Herbert or Chase (I cover with the points). Herbert sits and the Jags blow the Chargers out, I cover regardless. 

 

Falcons +1 over Seahawks, 24-10

-Don’t get it twisted…the Falcons are not good. But this Seahawks team is legitimately bad. 

 

Rams -3 over Cards, 30-23

-The Rams have a lower ceiling (most teams have a lower ceiling than the Cardinals). However, the professionalism and experience of the Rams provides a larger range of winning scenarios. 

 

Bucs -1 over Packers, 19-16

-You just don’t bet against Tom Brady. 

 

49ers -1 over Broncos, 22-13

-The idealization of the Broncos is right there for all of us to see. But we’ve had 2 weeks where there’s just something wrong. Everything in SF isn’t necessarily right, but we have a half-decade of knowing there will be reasonable decision-making, toughness, and execution. 

 

Giants -1 over Cowboys, 16-10

-We really picked the best and brightest for prime time games this week, huh?
