Score Prediction: Jaguars 28 – Titans 13

The Raiders kicker was the MVP last week as he was 3/3 on field goals as rookie O’Connell had one touchdown and one interception with 153 yards.

Tyson Bagent had 162 yards with zero touchdowns and zero interceptions. D’Onta Foreman scored their lone touchdown of the game and had 92 total yards. The Bears will need their defense to stand tall and try and keep the Lions off the field in this NFC North matchup.

Green Bay Packers (3-6) vs Los Angeles Chargers (4-5)

Both teams are coming off rough losses in their last outings, the Chargers played in a shootout against the Lions and came up short. While the Packers lost by four to the Steelers in a game that Jordan love turned the ball over too many times. 

Jordan Love passed for two touchdowns and two interceptions in last week’s loss along with a total 300 yards. His play has been a bit inconsistent but it’s to be expected as this is his first year as the main leader on offense. They will need Love to play close to perfect in this game if they want to stay in it. 

Justin Herbert played so well last week passing for 323 yards with four touchdowns and one interception. The main thing is Keenan Allen is questionable and will be needed in this game. As he had 175 yards and two touchdowns last week. If he isn’t available to play expect rookie Johnston to be a main vocal point of the receiving core and a heavy dose of Austin Ekeler. 

Score Prediction: Packers 17 – Chargers 31

 

Washington Commanders (4-6) vs New York Giants (2-6)

The Giants got embarrassed last week in their loss to the Cowboys losing 49-17 as the Giants are onto another quarterback as Tommy DeVito was the lead quarterback last week and he couldn’t get anything going. The Commanders fell short of a late comeback against the Seahawks, as Sam Howell continues to light up defenses. 

Sam Howell passed for three touchdowns with 312 yards on 29/44 passing. He has answered the calls needed by the Commanders as he may be the real deal for them and be the next franchise quarterback. 

The Giants season is slowly coming to an end, and they can just try and play the role of spoiling another teams playoff seeding as there were no bright spots in last week’s blowout loss against the Cowboys.

Score Prediction: Commanders 31 – Giants 13

Baker Mayfield continues to try and prove himself, as he passed for 278 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. Mike Evans showed why he’s a top receiver in the league tallying 143 yards and one touchdown last week. 

Score Prediction: 49ers 35 – Buccaneers 17

 

Buffalo Bills (5-5) vs New York Jets (4-5)

Battle of New York as Zach Wilson and company comes in off a loss to the Raiders, in an offensive lackluster game. The Bills are coming off a disappointing loss to the Broncos last week as they loss of failure to execute a substitution allowed the Broncos to kick a second attempt at a game winning field goal after missing one wide right. 

Josh Allen has had season this year and some are questioning the “Madden Curse” he passed for 177 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions along with a fumble. The Bills would’ve won last week if it wasn’t for the mental mistake by the defense allowing a second attempt for the win by Wil Lutz of the Broncos. Allen needs to get it together or the Bills will be out of the playoff conversations. 

The Jets offense failed to score last week as all 12 of their points came from field goals. This week if they fail to do it again this game could get out of hand quickly. Aaron Rodgers return may be soon by the way he’s going about it, but will it be a rushed failure or a great comeback story…?

Score Prediction: Bills 27 – Jets 13

 

Los Angeles Rams (3-6) vs Seattle Seahawks (6-3)

The Rams are coming off a bye week after a blowout loss to the Packers. As the Seahawks are coming off a close win in a game that they survived a late comeback by the Commanders.

Geno Smith passed for 369 yards and two touchdowns in last week nail biter win against the Commanders. Kenneth Walker combined for 127 yards and one receiving touchdown in the win. Geno has played impressive this year coming off winning comeback player of the year last year. 

Score Prediction: Rams 14 – Seahawks 24
