2019 NFL Picks Week #3

So through the first two weeks of the season (and one game) I am:

14-16 against the spread

21-12 in the Win/Loss Column.

Not too great but let's see what we can do.

Broncos @ Packers (-7.5): Not going to go too crazy with this one. Broncos got robbed by the refs last week. Packers proved their defense was legit. Gimme GB

Points: Packers
Victory: Packers

Lions @ Eagles (-6): I can't figure the Lions out. Tie the Cardinals then beat the Chargers. But both games were close. My gut tells me this will be the same.

Points: Lions
Victory: Eagles

Ravens @ Chiefs (-5.5): Probably the best matchup of the week. Ravens will have to run the ball alot to keep Mahomes off the field and Vegas knows it. If the spread were a little higher I would take the Ravens but not here

Points: Chiefs
Victory: Chiefs

Bengals @ Bills (-6): After sweeping the Meadowlands, the Bills have a really good chance to go 3-0. Bengals have been Jekyll and Hyde the first two weeks. With some reluctance, I'm actually going to take the points because the Bills really haven't impressed on offense the first two weeks.

Points: Bengals
Victory: Bills

Falcons @ Colts (-1.5): PICK'EM! Both teams are 1-1. I will go with the team that has the better QB and right now that is Matt Ryan

Victory: Falcons

Raiders @ Vikings (-9.5): Vikings were massively disappointing  last week in GB. So I think they will win the game but I would be cautious with that big a spread.

Points: Raiders
Victory: Vikings

Jets @ Patriots (-21.5) This line has gone down a little bit as the week has gone on, especially with the news that the Pats ended the AB experiment. It's almost right at the point that I would have to take the Patriots I think.

Points: Pats
Victory: Pats

Dolphins @ Cowboys (-23): Dallas will run up the score, I bet. It's Jerry's way.

Points: Cowboys
Victory: Cowboys

Giants @ Bucs (-6): This is a tough one. The Buccaneers are not elite by any stretch but that Giants D is so bad and Daniel Jones will make some rookie mistakes. I think the Bucs pull away late.

Points: Bucs
Victory: Bucs

Panthers @ Cardinals (-2): PICK'EM #2. The Cardinals are game folks. And the Panthers led by Cam Newton have not been impressive. Go with the birds

Points: Cardinals
Victory: Cardinals

Saints @ Seahawks (-4): I know Sean Payton has a week to gameplan this offense in Seattle, but I just don't think Teddy is up to it.

Points: Seahawks
Victory: Seahawks

Texans @ Chargers (-3): UPSET PICK OF THE WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!
Chargers won in OT at home against a luckless Colts team then lost an unforgivable game against the Lions. Texans will look to bounce back and they were impressive against New Orleans in the dome
Gimme Houston

Points: Texans
Victory: Texans

Steelers @ Niners (-6.5): If the Steelers were at home for this game, I might have gone upset pick for them, but Rudolph in a tough environment might be trouble for the Steelers. But to be cautions, I will take the points

Points: Steelers
Victory: Niners

Rams (-3) @ Browns: This pick is almost too easy to me. Cleveland was not impressive on Monday Night beating up an undermanned Jets team. Now they face the defending NFC champs. Give me the Rams easy

Points: Rams
Victory: Rams

Bears (-4) @ Redskins: Chicago is a horrible roughing the passer penalty short of being 0-2. They are the Browns of the NFC. And the spread shows as much, Nevertheless, I think they take care of business against Washington.

Points: Bears
Victory: Bears
