Los Angeles Rams (-7) at Denver Broncos

After watching the Jets go up and down the field on the Broncos (2-3), it’s really hard to believe that Vance Joseph and friends are going to slow down the Rams (5-0). It’s going to be a rough day for the fans at Mile High.

Pick: Los Angeles 32, Denver 24

Baltimore Ravens (-3) at Tennessee Titans

Do you love shoddy quarterback play, a litany of failed third down conversions and a kicking battle for the ages? Yes? Then the Ravens (3-2) and Titans (3-2) have you covered!

Pick: Tennessee 18, Baltimore 17

Jacksonville Jaguars (-3) at Dallas Cowboys

Blake Bortles. Dak Prescott. Jacksonville (3-2) and Dallas (2-3). Two offenses that treat chunk yardage like the plague. Let’s get after it.

Pick: Jacksonville 20, Dallas 19

Kansas City Chiefs at New England Patriots (-3.5)

This is going to be incredible television. Tom Brady tries to tamp down the Patrick Mahomes express in his own backyard, while the Patriots (3-2) attempt to stay in the conversation for AFC home-field advantage. The Chiefs (5-0) won’t force many punts, but New England may not force any.

Pick: Kansas City 45, New England 38

San Francisco 49ers at Green Bay Packers (-9.5)

If the Packers (2-2-1) don’t win this game convincingly, there are some real problems in Green Bay that might need immediate addressing. The 49ers (1-4) will try, but they don’t have near the talent to hang around in this one if the Packers show up.

Pick: Green Bay 23, San Francisco 17

Last Week: 10-5
Season: 47-29-2
