NFL Week 3 2020: Picks and predictions for each game
New York Jets at Indianapolis Colts (-10.5)
Have you seen the Jets (0-2). It’s as though they believe they’re playing cricket. They should be banned from football and given prison time for forcing people to watch them. Take the Colts (2-0).
Pick: Indianapolis 31, New York 13
Dallas Cowboys at Seattle Seahawks (-5)
This should be the most entertaining game on Sunday. Both the Cowboys (1-1) and Seahawks (2-0) will go up and down the field. Russell Wilson is the MVP through the first two weeks, and he adds to the resumè this weekend as well.
Pick: Seattle 34, Dallas 31
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-6) at Denver Broncos
Tom Brady against Jeff Driskel. Goodnight.
Pick: Tampa Bay 28, Denver 19
Green Bay Packers at New Orleans Saints (-3)
Drew Brees has not looked good. At 41 years old, that’s a major concern for the Saints (1-1) who have Super Bowl dreams. Meanwhile, the Packers (2-0) are rolling behind Aaron Rodgers. There’s zero reason to think he doesn’t keep it up in the Big Easy.
Pick: Green Bay 41, New Orleans 30
Kansas City Chiefs at Baltimore Ravens (-3.5)
The Chiefs (2-0) and Ravens (2-0) are the two best teams in football. For me, this game is about scheme. If Baltimore blitzes a ton — and nobody does more percentage-wise — it’s going to lose. Kansas City will go crazy with big plays.
The hunch here, though, is the Ravens are more conservative and Lamar Jackson does enough with his improved passing game. Still, it’s a coin flip.
Pick: Baltimore 27, Kansas City 24
Last Week: 14-2
Season: 22-10
