We're already two weeks into the NFL season, and now is the time to lock in your bets for Week 3.

In this article, I'm going to give you my pick for every single game. I'm going to focus on straight up picks, and ignore the point spread for now. This will help you if you're looking for a team to take in your survivor pool, or if you want a moneyline upset to bet.


Also, if you want my best bet for each game including spreads and totals, check out this week's episode of the Bacon Bets Podcast.

With all of that out of the way, here is my best moneyline bet for all NFL Week 3 games, with odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook.

NFL Week 3 Moneyline Bets

Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cleveland Browns

  • Pick: Browns -205

New Orleans vs. Carolina Panthers

  • Pick: Panthers +132

This is my upset pick of the week. The Panthers defense ranks fourth in opponent yards per play and first in opponent yards per pass attempt heading into this week. I'll be hesitant to lay points with the Saints while Jameis Winston is dealing with a back injury.

Houston Texans vs. Chicago Bears

  • Pick: Texans +122

Kansas City Chiefs vs. Indianapolis Colts

  • Pick: Chiefs -260

Buffalo Bills vs. Miami Dolphins

  • Pick: Bills -255

Detroit Lions vs. Minnesota Vikings

  • Pick: Vikings -235

Baltimore Ravens vs. New England Patriots

  • Pick: Ravens -146

Cincinnati Bengals vs. New York Jets

Pick: Bengals -255

Enough is enough, Joe Burrow. It's time to dig yourself out of the hole you find yourself in. The Bengals finally won't be taking on a good pass rush, which should do nothing but help them. Can they get their first win of the season? I think so.

Las Vegas Raiders vs. Tennessee Titans

  • Pick: Raiders -124

Philadelphia Eagles vs. Washington Commanders

  • Pick: Eagles -295

Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Los Angeles Chargers

Pick: Chargers -295

Los Angeles Rams vs. Arizona Cardinals

  • Pick: Rams -194

Atlanta Falcons vs. Seattle Seahawks

  • Pick: Falcons -108

The Geno Smith story was fun in Week 1, but this Seahawks offense is truly one of the worst in the NFL. Meanwhile, the Falcons are 2-0 against the spread and have been electric at times offensively.

Green Bay Packers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

  • Pick: Packers -102

San Francisco 49ers vs. Denver Broncos

  • Pick: 49ers -124

Dallas Cowboys vs. New York Giants

  • Pick: Cowboys -102
