Kansas City Chiefs at Carolina Panthers (-3)

Great interconference game. Kansas City (6-2) has won four straight but goes on the road to play a desperate Panthers (3-5) team. The Chiefs allowed 205 rushing yards against Jacksonville, and that will be its undoing in this contest.

Pick: Carolina 20, Kansas City 16

Houston Texans (-1.5) at Jacksonville Jaguars

The Texans (5-3) have to win this game coming off a bye. The Jaguars (2-6) are an unmitigated dumpster fire, begging to be beat every week.

Pick: Houston 27, Jacksonville 17

Green Bay Packers (-2.5) at Tennessee Titans

This is an intriguing game. The Packers (4-4) and Titans (4-5) both need this game if they want to stay in their respective playoff races. Tennessee is getting better, but can it pull this upset at home?

Pick: Green Bay 23, Tennessee 20

Los Angeles Rams at New York Jets (-2.5)

Listen to me … you don’t deserve this. You are worth more than this. Don’t allow people to tell you this is a viable option in your life. Rise above this.

Pick: New York 16, Los Angeles 14

Denver Broncos at New Orleans Saints (-1.5)

Another really solid game on the slate. Denver (6-3) is coming off a pasting in Oakland while the Saints (4-4) have won two straight to get back into the NFC race. New Orleans at home is very dangerous. Ultimately, hard to see Trevor Siemian and that offense winning in this spot.

Pick: New Orleans 26, Denver 20
