![]() That’s an encouraging element if you’re in need of a late score for a backdoor cover. ![]() My starting point for this game is that the Colts have scored 62 points (26 ppg) over their first two games. Indianapolis Colts (+8.5) over BALTIMORE RAVENS They failed to cover at home in Week 1 against the Cardinals, but I like this price point as near-touchdown home underdogs better. The Commanders held off a miracle attempt by the Broncos, registering seven sacks and two takeaways. WASHINGTON COMMANDERS (+6.5) over Buffalo Bills ![]() Hopefully I don’t end up paying for that faith in Justin Herbert here. Props to the Vikings for their backdoor cover in Philadelphia in the Week 2 Thursday night game, but I’m wondering if we’ll be able to say better things about them.ĭespite their 0-2 start, I still view the Chargers as one of the better teams in the NFL. Los Angeles Chargers (+1) over MINNESOTA VIKINGS Still this seems like another tight game involving the Titans, so even the small spread could be helpful on top of Derrick Henry and Mike Vrabel. The Browns outgained the Steelers by 153 offensive yards, even after losing Nick Chubb. Brown, and OLs Taylor Decker and Halapoulivaati Vaitai are all listed as questionable.īut this will be a different environment for the Falcons, who have won two home games to start the season.įiguring the Detroit pass rush will give Desmond Ridder problems and am willing to lay what seems like a discounted spread.ģ Mike Vrabel Getty Images Tennessee Titans (+3.5) over CLEVELAND BROWNSĬleveland got unlucky in Pittsburgh, losing on a pick-six, a sack-fumble TD and a home-run pass to George Pickens. The Lions are dealing with a lot of injuries to key players on the offense. The Texans had won nine meetings in a row before the Jaguars blew them out 31-3 last season in Week 17. The line has ticked down a little toward the Texans because apparently not enough people were willing to lay nine points on a Jacksonville team that managed to score just nine against the Chiefs at home last week. Houston Texans (+8.5) over JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS Watch for updates on Jaylen Waddle’s concussion. Russell Wilson has five touchdown passes and one interception, so it appears Sean Payton is having a positive impact. Though I’d prefer this line to be north of a touchdown, I think the Broncos could make this a game. I’m also 4-0 ATS picking Miami and against Denver. The Broncos are 0-2 with two losses at home, and the Dolphins are 2-0 with two wins on the road. Denver Broncos (+6.5) over MIAMI DOLPHINS It’s hard to go against Belichick in that case. The Jets have more playmakers than the Patriots do, but weaknesses at quarterback and on the offensive line could put the result in the hands of the coaches. It’s a little odd to see a winless team favored on the road against a team that already has a good home win in the division, against the Bills. Instead, it’ll be Zach Wilson going up against The Master, and we’re back to thinking about Sam Darnold seeing ghosts and Wilson moving the ball 2.77 inches per play in the second half last year in Foxborough. ![]() The ball was recovered by Kyle Dugger, who would have returned it for a touchdown if not for a great hustle play by Wilkins. So it’s pretty remarkable that after all this time, his team was the one to come up with a stunning new way to do it.Īccording to reports, three assistant coaches, including former Giants head coach Joe Judge, drew up the play the Patriots used to block a field goal try last Sunday night against the Dolphins.īrenden Schooler lined up far to the left and sprinted along the line.Īt the snap, he took a hard left, made a twist like Spider-Man to get around edge protector Christian Wilkins and laid out to block every bit of Jason Sanders’ kick. So he has been trying to devise ways to block a field goal for 47 or 48 years. The next season, he was assistant special teams coach for the Lions. ![]() NFL Week 4 predictions: Picks against spread for every gameīill Belichick started his NFL career as a special assistant for the Baltimore Colts in 1975.
