One game this weekend has a battle of the unbeatens going at it as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers host the Philadelphia Eagles. On the other end of the spectrum, two winless teams go head-to-head in Minnesota as the Vikings host the Los Angeles Chargers.
Once again this week, there will be two Monday night games (Eagles vs. Bucs and L.A. Rams at Cincinnati) and the Sunday night game features a pair of 1-1 squads as the Pittsburgh Steelers travel west to face the Las Vegas Raiders.
The capsule style previews are included and the Heftyinfo picks follow up.
New York Giants (1-1) at San Francisco 49ers (2-0) - The 49ers should win this one, but the Giants will battle them.
Indianapolis Colts (1-1) at Baltimore Ravens (2-0) - The Ravens have not trailed at all so far this season. They should win this one as well.
Atlanta Falcons (2-0) at Detroit Lions (1-1) - The Lions do not want to start out the season at 1-2, but the Falcons have looked solid in their first two wins.
Tennessee Titans (1-1) at Cleveland Browns (1-1) - The Browns lost running back Nick Chubb for the season with a knee injury, so in steps old friend Kareem Hunt to tote the rock. Take the Browns in a close one.
Houston Texans (0-2) at Jacksonville Jaguars (1-1) - The Jaguars should roll in this one.
Denver Broncos (0-2) at Miami Dolphins (2-0) - Can the 'Fins send Sean Payton to an 0-3 record in his first year as Broncos head coach? You bet they can.
Los Angeles Chargers (0-2) at Minnesota Vikings (0-2) - Believe it or not, the Vikings could drop to 0-3 and still be right there in the NFC North division. The Chargers cannot afford for that to happen to them in the AFC West. Toss up.
New England Patriots (0-2) at New York Jets (1-1) - Bill Belichick and the Patriots own the Jets . . . and should do so again this week.
Buffalo Bills (1-1) at Washington Commanders (2-0) - The Commanders will be looking to get off to a 3-0 start, but the Bills will have something to say about that.
New Orleans Saints (2-0) at Green Bay Packers (1-1) - The Packers narrowly lost last week on the road (Atlanta) so look for them to rebound this week.
Carolina Panthers (0-2) at Seattle Seahawks (1-1) - The Panthers could be without starting QB Bryce Young in this one. Take the Seahawks regardless.
Chicago Bears (0-2) at Kansas City Chiefs (1-1) - Can the Bears do the impossible and win in Kansas City against Mahomes and the Chiefs? Not happening.
Dallas Cowboys (2-0) at Arizona Cardinals (0-2) - The Cowboys got a gut punch with DB Trevon Diggs being lost for the season with a knee injury. He is a big time part of that defense, but the Cardinals won't hang in this one.
Pittsburgh Steelers (1-1) at Las Vegas Raiders (1-1) - This one could be a back and forth type of game that comes down to a last second field goal. Toss up.
Philadelphia Eagles (2-0) at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-0) - Have the Bucs been doing this with smoke and mirrors in the first two games? They have played two winless teams . . . The Eagles are a different breed.
Los Angeles Rams (1-1) at Cincinnati Bengals (0-2) - Can Joe Burrow and the Bengals get it going this week? A national TV audience on Monday night is quite a setting and the Rams have looked good so far in their first two games.
