CHI vs. the LVR - both starting QBs are out. The Raiders are starting a guy who's never won an N.F.L. start (0 - 12) and "Da Bears" are providing someone with his first-ever N.F.L. start. Given the overall state of each franchise I'd say it's anybody's guess who wins that one.

N.E. vs. BUF - the last two games were supposed to be winnable ones for the Patriots. They lost both and things certainly aren't looking good for B.B. & Co. going forward.

the NYG vs. WAS - two teams that'll be fighting it out for 3rd place in the N.F.C. East this season

BAL vs. DET - if the Lions can pull off the victory today they'll match their best start through 7 games (6 - 1) since (as far as I can tell) 1956

DEN vs. G.B. - the Packers are off to a slow start but a loss to the Broncos would be disastrous for them.

the LAR vs. PIT - can the 'Stillers,' coming off of a win over BAL and a bye, get the win on the West Coast? (trivia note: the 'Stillers' have never won a regular season game against the Rams in L.A.)

SEA vs. ARZ - a game the Seahawks really can't afford to lose in their efforts to keep pace with the 49ers in the N.F.C. West

K.C. vs. the LAC - Can anybody in the A.F.C. West keep K.C. from winning another division championship? In my opinion - no.

PHI vs. MIA (Sunday night) - Last year's N.F.C. champs vs. this year's highest-scoring (and, possibly, fastest) team. Should be a good one!

MIN vs. SFO (Monday night) - SFO with some injury concerns after their first loss of the season. Can the Vikings take advantage?

Boy, the Browns sure got some help from the zebras at the end of yesterdays game but Minshew for Indy needs to stop with the turnovers. Miles Garrett was barely touched by a TE or OT when he stripped Minshew of the ball in the endzone. Garrett is a great player but when tackles block like matadors--similar to Dillard with the Titans--makes it easier for him to rack up sacks.

Love isnt feeling the love in GB. Even with Jones, they arent finding the endzone as Denver finally wins.

Some unknown rookie QB is getting the attention in Chicago and he played well but D'onta Foreman won that game and should have been playing all year. Keep It Simple Stupid, er Bears, give this guy the ball.

Philly controlled the clock and kept the Dolphins off the field, though Cheetah dropped a TD pass. Yep, fundamental football will never go out of fashion. Buffalo has now lost two games to divisional foes they should have beaten. Jones for NE needs to celebrate this win.

Detroit had their letdown but the Giants and Browns need to stay with their backup QBs, who inspire their teams better than their multi-million dollar starters. Waller for NY is getting hot and the other receivers need to take advantage.

"Boy, the Browns sure got some help from the zebras at the end of yesterdays game" - yeah, and they weren't the only ones: https://www.yahoo.com/news/nfl-pitted-t ... 42656.html

It was obvious before this last weekend that the Packers weren't doing well or looking good but I never imagined for even one second that they would lose to the BRONCOS. I mean, the Broncos are truly one of the absolute WORST teams in the league right now. For the Packers to lose to them tells me that the Packers are in MUCH WORSE shape than I already thought they were. And Jordan Love? All that talk during pre-season about how he "might be the Packers' 3rd straight future H.o.F.er at QB!" has pretty much died down at this point, hasn't it?
