There are three undefeated teams in the NFL right now, the Titans, Bills, and Giants. However, both the Titans and the Bills have beaten 4 teams with combined records of 3-12 and 4-11, respectively. They just haven't played anyone that great yet. Don't get me wrong the Titans have proven they have a great defense and can win games. The Bills barely beat Oakland and had to come back to beat St. Louis. But they won, and looking ahead at their schedules, I think that they can still remain Playoff bound in their divisions.
The Giants have only played 3 games so far, 2 of them against the winless Bengals and Rams, and have at least 3 more easy games before facing some harder opposition. They will have a hard time in their division this year with both the Cowboys and Redskins playing tough, along with the Eagles' strong defense rearing the NFC East at 2-2. They all have tough match-ups and I am favoring the Cowboys right now to be the contenders for the top spot again.
As far as this week goes... I think the standings won't change too much.
Titans at Baltimore: Titans will win this hard fought battle
Chiefs at Carolina: The Panthers will take this one, even though the Chiefs have some life in them.
Bears at Detroit: I think that the Bears will run all over the Lions.
Falcons at Green Bay: This might be close, but I'm going with Green Bay.
Colts at Houston: Neither team looking too great, but I expect the Colts to come out the gates playing and pull off a Victory.
San Diego at Miami: I actually like Miami and want them to win. Their pass defense is not that great and Phillip Rivers can throw it deep. And Miami won't be able to get away with the stunts they pulled off against New England. San Diego will most likely win this one.
Seahawks at NY Giants: I fully expect the Giants to take this game even with Seattle finally getting 2 of their injured receivers back (although for my fantasy team's sake, I hope Engram gets the ball in the End Zone).
Redskins at Philadelphia:This is a tough match-up to call. Both these teams have been playing great lately, but with Westbrooks injury, I think the Redskins can pull this one off, as long as they can stop Buckhalter like the Bears stopped him last week.
Bucs at Denver: The Broncos were looking good this year until that defeat by the abysmal Chiefs, but I think that they can come back to form against the Buccaneers. I don't expect them to make a lot of stops against the Bucs, but with the offensive numbers they've been putting up they should pull this one off.
Bills at Arizona: This shouldn't be that hard of a match-up for the Bills. I expect them to take home the win.
Bengals at Dallas: As poorly as the Bengals are playing this year, I don't see how they can beat the Cowboys.
Patriots at San Fran: Despite the 49ers being my team, they just don't have what it takes to beat the Patriots, even a Patriots team that doesn't have Tom Brady.
Steelers at Jacksonville: This will be one tough game, and probably the most difficult for me to decide. The steelers don't have Willie Parker, Big Ben is all banged up, but they have a great defense. Jacksonville as has a great defense, and I see this as another battle of the D's which Pittsburgh will pull off.
Vikings at New Orleans: Despite the Vikings 1-2 record and New Orleans 2-0 record at home this season. Despite, Drew Brees lighting it up through the air. I don't think this game will go down this way. I believe the Vikings will win this game.
