Best NFL Week 2 Matchups
Baltimore Ravens at Dallas Cowboys
Sunday, September 22nd, 4:25 PM EST
- Moneyline: Ravens -115, Cowboys -110
- Spread: Baltimore Ravens (-1)
- Total: 47.5 Points
The NFL week 3 matchup between the Ravens and Cowboys is the best game of the week. Baltimore is desperate to secure their first win of the season after losing to the Chiefs and Raiders to start the year. For Dallas, they are equally as hungry to succeed after getting steamrolled in front of their home crowd 44-19 by the Saints last week.
The NFL game odds week 3 have the Ravens as very slight favorites, but there is little to separate these two teams. Lamar Jackson has looked good for the Ravens this season, and it has been the Baltimore defense that has let them down. Baltimore has had a top five defense for four consecutive seasons, and they will need to return to that form if they are to make the playoffs. Derrick Henry has given them an additional piece of offense, but if they can’t slow down Dallas, it won’t matter.
The Cowboys were one of the most dominant NFL teams at home last season, but got off to a rough start this year. Their defense allowed five touchdowns on five first half possessions from the Saints in week 2. Micah Parsons and Trevon Diggs were superstars last season, but neither could make an impact against the Saints. The Cowboys have a reliable offense, but they can’t afford to dig themselves an early deficit against the Ravens.
The winner of this game will be whichever defense shows up. Both of these teams have no shortage of offensive talents, but both defenses have let them down. The Cowboys will need to find a way to stop the run from Baltimore, while the Ravens will need to limit Dak Prescott’s deep throws down the sideline. Baltimore has been able to turn their season around before, and they cannot slip to 0-3 if they are to make the playoffs. It won’t be pretty, but the Ravens will get the victory.
Pick: Baltimore Ravens (-1)
Monday Night Football: Jaguars at Bills
Monday, September 23rd, 7:30 PM EST
- Moneyline: Jaguars +205, Bills -275
- Spread: Buffalo Bills (-6)
- Total: 46 Points
The 0-2 Jaguars face off against the 2-0 Bills on Monday Night Football. These two teams are poised to deliver one of the best NFL week 3 matchups. Jacksonville is unlucky to be winless this season and fully understand how damaging another loss would be to their end of season goals. For the Bills, Josh Allen continues to put the team on his back, dominating the Dolphins on Thursday night.
The AFC East is suddenly the Bills to lose, and they will be able to keep their perfect start going against the Jaguars. Buffalo lost several key pieces on both sides of the ball over the offseason, but it hasn’t slowed them down. As long as Josh Allen is at quarterback, the Bills will remain favorites in almost every game. Allen has the ability to scramble out of the pocket, and either tuck the ball for a first down, or keep his eyes up and deliver an accurate pass down the field.
For the Jaguars, they will need more from Trevor Lawrence. He has thrown for just 382 yards and one touchdown through the first two weeks of the season, falling well short of what the Jaguars need from him. Jacksonville got smothered by the Browns last week, and a road game against the Bills is no easy task. Jacksonville lacks the playmakers needed to pull off the upset, and they will be falling to 0-3 to start the year.
Pick: Buffalo Bills (-6)
