Thursday Night Football prediction, Oct. 22
New England Patriots at Chicago Bears, 5:15 p.m., Amazon Prime (stream with Prime Video)
With three straight wins, the Patriots are one of the hottest teams in the NFL. But the Bears
have Caleb Williams back and are at home.
Prediction: Bears 27, Patriots 24
NFL international game prediction, Oct. 25
Pittsburgh Steelers vs New Orleans Saints (Paris, France), 6:30 a.m., NFL Network (stream with FUBO)
Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers are trending up, with the offense starting to come together, but it might be the Pittsburgh defense that makes the difference in this game.
Prediction: Steelers 24, Saints 20
Sunday early NFL game predictions, Oct. 25
San Francisco 49ers at Atlanta Falcons, 10 a.m., FOX (stream with FUBO)
The 49ers will be on a short week, but it won't matter. If you can contain Bijan Robinson, you can beat the Falcons, and that is what San Francisco will do.
Prediction: 49ers 23, Falcons 20
Cincinnati Bengals at Baltimore Ravens, 10 a.m., CBS (stream with FUBO)
The Ravens currently sit at 4-2, in a three-way tie with the Browns and Steelers. The Bengals (3-2) can further muddy the AFC North race with a win in Baltimore. Joe Burrow will do just that.
Prediction: Bengals 27, Ravens 23
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Carolina Panthers, 10 a.m., FOX (stream with FUBO)
Bryce Young and the Panthers have won two straight, with the offense starting to click. They will make it three in a row at home against Tampa Bay.
Prediction: Panthers 24, Buccaneers 16
New York Giants at Houston Texans, 10 a.m., FOX (stream with FUBO)
Houston is 0-3 at home this season, but we see that changing against the Giants. C.J. Stroud will carve up New York on the way to the Texans' third straight win.
Prediction: Texans 28, Giants 17
Indianapolis Colts at Minnesota Vikings, 10 a.m., CBS (stream with FUBO)
The Vikings are coming off a bye, while the Colts are coming off a disappointing loss to the Titans. A rested Minnesota defense will make some big plays against Indianapolis.
Prediction: Vikings 23, Colts 17
Miami Dolphins at New York Jets, 10 a.m., CBS (stream with FUBO)
We really want to pick the Dolphins here, but we just can't do it. Malik Willis and company won't be able to put up enough points to beat the Jets on the road.
Prediction: Jets 20, Dolphins 13
Cleveland Browns at Tennessee Titans, 10 a.m., CBS (stream with FUBO)
The Titans are no longer winless. Can they get a win streak going against the Browns? No. Cleveland's defense will come up big on the road.
Prediction: Browns 23, Titans 13
Sunday late NFL game predictions, Oct. 25
Denver Broncos at Arizona Cardinals, 1:05 p.m., CBS (stream with FUBO)
Both of the Cardinals' wins this season have come at SoFi Stadium on the road. This game is at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. The Broncos' defense will make a play late to secure the win for Denver.
Prediction: Broncos 24, Cardinals 23
Green Bay Packers at Detroit Lions, 1:25 p.m., FOX (stream with FUBO)
The Packers could see Josh Jacobs back for this game, and he could give Green Bay's offense a huge boost, opening up the passing game for Jordan Love. This game could be a high-scoring thriller.
Prediction: Packers 31, Lions 27
Los Angeles Rams at Las Vegas Raiders, 1:25 p.m., FOX (stream with FUBO)
The Raiders started the season 3-0. They are 0-3 since. Matthew Stafford and the Rams, the preseason Super Bowl favorites, have to win this game to avoid falling to an abysmal 2-5. They will.
Prediction: Rams 24, Raiders 21
Sunday Night Football prediction, Oct. 25
Kansas City Chiefs at Seattle Seahawks, 5:20 p.m., NBC (stream with Peacock)
The Seahawks are at home and are rested after playing on Thursday Night Football. They are also desperate for a win. Sam Darnold will help deliver one for Seattle, handing the Chiefs their first loss of the season.
Prediction: Seahawks 23, Chiefs 20
Monday Night Football prediction, Oct. 26
Dallas Cowboys at Philadelphia Eagles, 5:15 p.m., ESPN (stream with FUBO)
The Eagles have lost four straight games, and they can't score. While Dak Prescott and the Cowboys have their own struggles, we have more confidence in their ability to put at least some points on the board.
Prediction: Cowboys 20, Eagles 14
