Now then, welcome to class everyone, hope everyone had a good time at The Atlantic.

What did we learn this week????

(John: Lamar Jackson is on pace for 68 total touchdowns, which is pretty remarkable.)

That's good, how about you Jill?

(Jill: John sometimes needs to shut up about stupid stats like that)

Now that's not nice....

(Jill: Well it's true sometimes.)

Save the arguments for later. Next? How about you Mary.

(Mary: Well despite being in Jamaica and almost getting hit by Hurricane Ian... I think the secondary stepped up and did what they needed to do to win. 5 Turnovers are a lot of turnovers)

Yes, the secondary though gave up another 300 yard passer but... Mac Jones did get hurt, so he might be out awhile. Anything else??? Christie

(Christie: Can somebody fix me a drink?)

There's no drinking in class, Christie... Ed?

(Ed: Uh... how about the D. It wasn't pretty but we got what we needed.)

That's right and that's the win.

(Victor: How about the game this week. Dolphins and Bengals? Who do we root for?)

Good question. I think we'd need to root for the Bengals in this case though the Dolphins would have the tiebreaker.

Are we all ready for this week's games?

(Everyone: YES!)

Let's get sh*tposting!

MIAMI DOLPHINS (3-0)
CINCINNATI BENGALS (1-2)


Thursday - 8:15pm - Amazon Prime Video
Line: CIN by 4 | OU 47 | FPI: 75.3% CIN | PICK: CIN

Miami finally loses one, Cincinnati takes this one.

--

MINNESOTA VIKINGS (2-1)
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (1-2)


Sunday - 9:30am - NFL Network
Line: MIN by 2.5 | OU 43.5 | FPI: 51.3% NO | PICK: MIN

There's nothing quite like waking up in the morning just to get the blood pumping with a good sh*t. You'll need to do that before breakfast if you want to catch this game in London. Take the Vikings as Jefferson could go off

--

CLEVELAND BROWNS (2-1)
ATLANTA FALCONS (1-2)


Sunday - 1:00pm - CBS
Line: CLE by 1.5 | OU 49.5 | FPI: TIED | PICK: ATL

Atlanta needs this one if they want to stay in the NFC South race. They might just have enough firepower to beat the Cleveland Browns. Take Atlanta and a point I guess.

--

WASHINGTON COMMANDERS (1-2)
DALLAS COWBOYS (2-1)


Sunday - 1:00pm - FOX
Line: DAL by 3 | OU 41.5 | FPI: 53.3% WSH | PICK: DAL

Cooper Rush is a pretty good quarterback... Pretty good... Yes... Pretty good indeed... 3-0 as a starter... Take the Cowboys... what am I thinking right now...

--

SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (1-2)
DETROIT LIONS (1-2)

Sunday - 1:00pm - FOX
Line: DET by 4.5 | OU 50 | FPI: 65.3% DET | PICK: DET

I think Seattle has a quarterback problem. A really bad quarterback problem... something they need to mend and quickly... In this case, I'll take Detroit.. Hey, did you know they are favored AGAIN THIS WEEK!?

--

INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (1-1-1)
TENNESSEE TITANS (1-2)

Sunday - 1:00pm - FOX
Line: IND by 3.5 | OU 42.5 | FPI: 60.4% IND | PICK: TEN

Tennessee really needs this game with how bad the south is... Maybe Tannehill can have a better game then what he's been putting up these last few weeks...

--

CHICAGO BEARS (2-1)
NEW YORK GIANTS (2-1)


Sunday - 1:00pm - FOX
Line: NYG by 3 | OU 38.5 | FPI: 65.0% NYG | PICK: NYG

Justin Fields has recorded 8, 7, 8 passes in 3 games... Offenses are putting up more yards than him... The guy can throw but... honestly... Do the Bears need a new QB already? Go with the Giants in this case.

--

JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (2-1)
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (3-0)


Sunday - 1:00pm - CBS
Line: PHI by 6.5 | OU 48 | FPI: 67.3% PHI | PICK: PHI

Wow Trevor Lawrence has learned how to throw, it's about time. After an upending of the Chargers, he's actually doing something right for a change... It is his 2nd year after all though. But I got PHI in a very close one.

--

NEW YORK JETS (1-2)
PITTSBURGH STEELERS (1-2)

Sunday - 1:00pm - CBS
Line: PIT by 3.5 | OU 40.5 | FPI: 67.9% PIT | PICK: NYJ

Flacco has thrown for 901 yards, 5 TD, and 3 INT... Pretty good... Pittsburgh will probably go to Pickett soon but I got the Jets in a close one... Pittsburgh never seemingly plays well at New Meadowlands...

--

LOS ANGELES CHARGERS (1-2)
HOUSTON TEXANS (0-2-1)


Sunday - 1:00pm - CBS
Line: LAC by 5 | OU 44 | FPI: 70.4% LAC | PICK: LAC

Los Angeles will need to win this game, the West is turning into a wide open field. But what about Justin Herbert? Sure he's a tough guy but is he tough enough to get through this game. Texans are actually playing alright, but it's just not enough. Chargers for the win.

--

ARIZONA CARDINALS (1-2)
CAROLINA PANTHERS (1-2)


Sunday - 4:05pm - FOX
Line: CAR by 1.5 | OU 42.5 | FPI: 52.8% CAR | PICK: CAR

Carolina is where my mom's family is from so.... Carolina it is.

--

NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (1-2)
GREEN BAY PACKERS (2-1)


Sunday - 4:25pm - CBS
Line: GB by 9.5 | OU 40.5 | FPI: 88.8% GB | PICK: GB

Patriots lost Mac Jones for a significant amount of time... Soooooo. Green Bay it is.

--

DENVER BRONCOS (2-1)
LAS VEGAS RAIDERS (0-3)

Sunday - 4:25pm - CBS
Line: LV by 2.5 | OU 45.5 | FPI: 58.3% LV | PICK: DEN

Raiders shouldn't even be favored in this game but then again, DEN only won 11-10 last week... I'll take Denver in this case.

--

KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (2-1)
TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (2-1)


Sunday - 8:20pm - NBC
Line: KC by 2 | OU 45 | FPI: 63.3% | PICK: KC

Mahomes is already a superstar but that brick-brained week that Brady had leads me to believe he's taken a few too many hits and he just needs to retire. I think Tom is just trying to pad his stats... You know... Get to 90,000 yards passing, 700 total TD passes... all that jazz... But I got Mahomeboy and the Chiefs in a good win.

--

LOS ANGELES RAMS (2-1)
SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (1-2)


Monday - 8:15pm - ABC/ESPN
Line: SF by 2.5 | OU 42 | FPI: 60.0% LAR | PICK: LAR

They actually favored the 49ers in this game? Why? I don't understand why. They lost 11-10 to the BRONCOS... YEAH... THOSE BRONCOS.... Take the Rams... and... Garropolo gets a boot in the ass.

--

BALTIMORE RAVENS (2-1)
BUFFALO BILLS (2-1)

Sunday - 1:00pm - CBS
Line: BAL by 3 | OU 51.5 | FPI: 55.5% BAL | PICK: BAL

--

Personally, this game should've been a 4:25pm national game. You got two superstar quarterbacks in Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen. Both teams are starting to get injured to hell and back. The day's weather though could be a problem with the rain from the remnants of Ian after it batters Florida. Right now, the Bills D is number 1, allowing just 240.7 yards per game at 183 pass yards allowed and just 57.7 rushing yards. But they are injured with two big defensive names out. They've lost some big names and personally, they're putting up the yards... Question is, why are they only 2-1? They should be 3-0.

Ravens play well at home, there is no doubt about that at all. But we can't allow a stinker like we did the first time we played at home this year. Ravens have to come out gunning, the secondary needs to do the same thing they did to the Patriots but this time to the Bills.

However, the weather might neutralize the passing game and it will be all ground game. You know that the Bills will stack the box but Lamar has been very crafty lately with his play. He's got 12 total touchdowns after all... What needs to happen here is we have to have a bend but don't break defense and a good showing by our run game if we really want to win this game.

Keys to victory:

1. Lamar Jackson has to come out swinging. One play at a time. Long sustained drives that shorten up the game and wear the D out. We did it the last time, lets see if we can't do it again.

2. Secondary needs to have a field day with Josh Allen. FINISH YOUR TACKLES.

3. Yeah I know, JT missed an XP but somebody just had to F up their assignment and cause issues! Oh well, no one's perfect. Limit the Bills on their starting field position. We did good against the Patriots... lets keep it up here.

4. Limit Diggs and force turnovers. Stefon Diggs could've been a Raven... still wondering why the Ravens passed up on him.
--

I don't know about you but I do worry about this game. The Bills have a potent offense but It's based solely on the pass... We have to contain Josh Allen and prevent him from getting loose because he is a very mobile quarterback. All in All, it will be a great game, I say Ravens take this one by a final count of 35-25.

This is your Captain scoring the game winning touchdown and saying see you next time.

Put your hand down Christie, class dismissed.
