Thursday Night Football:
Indianapolis Colts @ Tennessee Titans
Game Preview: The Colts come into this game at a record of 5-4, after losing to the Ravens in week 9. While the Titans come off a devastating loss to the Cincinnati Bengals 31-20. Look for the Titans to make a statement early on and take advantage of the lackluster offense of the Colts. Phillip Rivers should be at home taking care of his 20 kids at this point??
Final: Titans 31 - Colts 21
Sunday, November 15th
1:00 PM Games
Philadelphia Eagles @ New York Giants
Game Preview: This dumpster fire matchup actually has division leading implications. The Eagles lead the division at 3-4-1, and the Giants who are in last place stand at 2-7. Yes, in the year 2020, a 2-7 record team still potentially has a chance at winning the division. So, expect a highly intense, energetic game from the two sides. It will be ugly, but it does have standings implications.
Final: Giants 27 - Eagles 24
Jacksonville Jaguars @ Green Bay Packers
Game Preview: Enters MVP Aaron Rodgers. This game won’t be close at all as the Packers come in with not only the MVP, but the hottest offensive weapon in DeVante Adams, and a 6-2 record. The Jaguars come to Green Bay sitting at 1-7, and honestly have nothing going for them.
Final: Green Bay 34 - Jaguars 17
Washington Football Team @ Detroit Lions
Game Preview: Both teams enter this matchup below .500; Football sits at 2-6, while the Lions are at 3-5. Even though I like Washington’s head coach a lot more in this matchup, I hate their quarterback situation. It is a revolving door, and honestly it is not a very good one either. Matt Stafford will out throw his opposing quarterback and the Lions will improve to 4-5, no thanks to backwards hat wearing Matt Patricia.
Final: Lions 21 - Football Team 17
Houston Texans @ Cleveland Browns
Game Preview: The Texans made another horrible organizational move this week and fired beloved PR personnel. Nothing this team does is right, and Deshaun Watson should have never signed a long-term contract with them. Expect Cleveland to take advantage of both home field, and a dumpster fire called Texans. This will be a close game only because of Watson, but they will fail to beat the Browns.
Final: Browns 28 - Texans 21
Tampa Bay @ Carolina Panthers
Game Preview: Do not expect the same Tom Brady to show up again this week. You will see pissed off Tom Brady show up in Carolina on Sunday, and they will be his victim. Nothing went their way Sunday Night in Tampa, so expect major adjustments and high scoring. Panthers will have to keep up with them on the offensive side to stay in this game.
Final: Buccaneers 34 - Panthers 24
4:05 Game Slots:
Los Angeles Chargers @ Miami Dolphins
Game Preview: Whoever is able to watch this game on TV should tune in for a great game. These two teams have young, unproven quarterbacks and two good coaches. They have good offensives, and Miami can keep up with high scorers like last week. Expect Miami to keep their hot streak going and win another game.
Final: Dolphins 37 - Chargers 34
Denver Broncos @ Las Vegas Raiders
Game Preview: The Raiders will host the Broncos this week and it could be a close one. If the broncos can establish a running game, then have below-average QB Drew Lock throw out of play action, they have a shot. However, the raiders have been good all season long, and expect them to cruise to another victory.
Final: Raiders 24 - Broncos 13
Buffalo Bills @ Arizona Cardinals
Game Preview: This will be one of the best match ups for the week. Heading into this week, the Cardinals have one of the top offensives in the league, and a great young quarterback. On the flip side, the Bills have a great young quarterback on their team, Josh Allen proves the doubters wrong each week, and expect him to do that again.
Final: Bills 42 - Cardinals 35
4:25 Game Slots:
San Francisco 49ers @ New Orleans Saints
Game Preview: A lot of people doubted Drew Brees and the saints heading into their SNF matchup against the Bucs. They proved the doubters wrong, and look for them to continue their success against injury-plagued 49ers. This won't be much of a game from beginning to end.
Final: Saints 41 - 49ers 17
Seattle Seahawks @ Los Angeles Rams
Game Preview: This game has a lot of division standing implications. The Seahawks come into this match up 6-2, while the Rams sit at 5-3. Whoever wins this game will be leading the division/or tied with the Cardinals. Since the Seahawks have no defense, expect this to be a shootout from start to end. The Rams will be able to hold on with a crucial fourth quarter stop to secure the win.
Final: Rams 32 - Seahawks 30
Cincinnati Bengals @ Pittsburgh Steelers
Game Preview: The Steelers won a close one in the Lone Star state last week. The Steelers have a tendency to play down to their competitions level, and that makes for trouble. Cincinnati will look to play spoilers on their rivals undefeated season and they will. Joe Burrow has put together an impressive rookie season, and this would be a huge win for his early career if he can take down the NFL's best team. This time the Steelers won't be able to comeback, when they play down to their competitions level.
Final: Bengals 28 - Steelers 24
Sunday Night Football:
Baltimore Ravens @ New England Patriots
Game Preview: Even though one team has a lot of talent, and the other team lives in Foxborough, do not underestimate Bill Belichick. Everyone will be picking the Ravens to win, but if Belichick has his key players back on defense expect this to be a lot closer than people are expecting. But, the lack of talent just won’t cut it against the Ravens, as they will lose late in the 4th quarter
Final Ravens 27 - Patriots 21
Monday Night Football:
Minnesota Vikings @ Chicago Bears
Game Preview: If I was Kirk Cousin's I would be worried about having to play another Prime Time game. He was struggled significantly when the spotlight is on him. But, the Vikings are in luck, as the Bears have been on a 3-game losing streak, and just have not looked good at all. Expect this to be one sided and a lackluster game.
Final: Vikings 17 - Bears 10
