New York Giants at Green Bay Packers (London)
Time: Sunday, 9:30 a.m. ET (NFL Network), airs on fuboTV (try it for free) Open: Packers -8
Featured Game | Green Bay Packers vs. New York Giants
“The Packers offense struggled to get it going against the Patriots and barely beat the Patriots, who had a third-string quarterback most of the day. That can’t happen two weeks in a row, can it? ?The Giants don’t appear to be such a tough matchup for Aaron Rodgers and Co., and you have to think the Packers will focus all of their attention on stopping Saquon Barkley in this game. If Davis Webb is the QB, the straight line for this game should be double digits. , so act now to block this teaser leg.”
SportsLine NFL pundit RJ White likes the Packers down to -2 this week in a teaser. To see his other teaser legs for this weekend, head over to SportsLine.
Miami Dolphins at New York Jets
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)Open: Dolphins -3
Featured Game | New York Jets vs. Miami Dolphins
“The Jets have lost 12 straight division games and in the two games they’ve won this season, they’ve been outscored by double digits in both. It’s a tall order to keep games close, especially in a situation like this with Miami on extended rest and New York. Offensive line broken. Sure, Zach Wilson had a wild ride for the Steelers last week, but he’s erratic and looked a lot like a developmental QB in the first three quarters. I like for Mike McDaniel to bring out the best in another. Former 49ers assistant Robert Saleh here. Teddy Bridgewater is 24-6 against the spread all-time on the road, has elite weapons and speed around him and this Jets defense hasn’t been what I thought it would be up front. Has Miami been overrated so far? Maybe. But the same goes for the Jets, too.”

Tennessee Titans at Washington Commanders
Time: Sunday, 1pm ET (CBS), airs on Paramount+ (click here) Open: Commanders -1
Featured Game | Washington Commanders vs. Tennessee Titans
“The Titans have saved their season with back-to-back wins, while the Commanders’ offense has looked atrocious the last two weeks. That means it’s the perfect time to bring Washington here, as we’re missing a team with great stock and buying. a low-stock team. Tennessee’s defense is 30th in passing yards per play, a far cry from the units Washington played the last two weeks. Washington’s rush should be a problem for tackles of Tennessee, and the injury to Treylon Burks lowers the team’s ceiling. Titans passing offense. The perspective here was PK, and I don’t think these teams are much different than they were a week ago.” — SportsLine’s RJ White

Los Angeles Chargers at Cleveland Browns
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here)Opens: Chargers -3
Featured Game | Cleveland Browns vs. Los Angeles Chargers
“This is a team that’s playing back-to-back games on the road, I don’t usually like that outside of the division. But look, we thought the (Chargers) offensive line was going to be a disaster. That kid from Salyer went in there and went play. really good for them. The rookie left tackle held up. I think they’re going to be able to score. I think the Browns defense, I know they get guys back, but the Browns defense isn’t good. Especially at the end, they’ve given up a lot of big plays. I think this is a good spot for Herbert, I’ll take the Chargers in this game minus the points.”

Pittsburgh Steelers at Buffalo Bills
Time: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET (CBS), stream on Paramount+ (click here) Open: Bills -9
Featured Game | Buffalo Bills vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
“A rematch of last year’s Week 1 stunner presents a whole new Pittsburgh QB situation, which has evolved over the past 96 hours or so. Kenny Pickett is in and Mitchell Trubisky is out. Pickett threw three picks against the Jets in a loss. , but Pro Football Focus didn’t give any of those throws a grade worthy of billing. Pickett became the first quarterback in NFL history to run for two touchdowns in the his debut. The Bills are too much: Pittsburgh has never won without TJ Watt and slowing down Stefon Diggs will be problematic for a secondary that can exploit top wideouts. Three big stats here in addition to the Watt thing: 1) Sean McDermott /Mike Tomlin are 3-0 all-time, I hope it continues; 2) the Bills have allowed seven total points in the second half this season; 3) the Bills have the most wins (12) by more than 14 points from the beginning of 2021 and sec The closest team has seven.”

Atlanta Falcons at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Time: Sunday, 1pm ET (Fox), airs on fuboTV (try it for free) Open: Buccaneers -11
Featured Game | Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Atlanta Falcons
“Atlanta has been a betting favorite through the first month of the season. They have a 4-0 ATS record that includes a hard-fought game against the defending champion Rams and back-to-back wins against Seattle and Cleveland. However, the clock It looks like it will be midnight in this race in Week 5 when the Buccaneers visit.
Even if you put aside the 28-3 jokes, Tom Brady has historically destroyed the Falcons. Brady is 10-0 in his career against Atlanta (including the playoffs), making him one of four quarterbacks in NFL history with double-digit wins and zero losses against an opponent. Brady has also performed very well when his teams have lost back-to-back games like the Bucs. He is 14-0 SU and 12-2 ATS in his career immediately following a two-game losing streak. His teams also have a differential of +19.6 points per game in those games.”
