There are a lot of games I do really like this week, especially with some teams playing consecutive road games.
Here's an easy pick: The Titans own the Jaguars in Nashville.The Steelers impressed in beating Baltimore last week in a close game, while the Vikings struggled against the Lions.
It's tough to play on the road on a short week, especially after a rivalry game, which is why I think the Vikings will win this one in a low-scoring game.
This is suddenly an enormous game in the division race.Washington has won four straight and is playing outstanding defense.
Washington can close to within a game in the division if they win this, and I think they will.
The Jaguars always struggle in Tennessee and this is a second straight road game against a team coming off a bye.The Titans were struggling some before the bye, but like the Rams last week this Jaguars team is the game to get them back right.
They now get to face a Texans team that is playing bad football.
The Saints got a mini bye after playing Thursday last week, which was much needed with all the injuries.That will lead to short fields for the Carolina offense off turnovers as it gets the victory.
The Ravens are playing a second straight division road game, while the Browns are coming off a bye.The Browns have, too, but I think their run game will be the difference in this one.
The Chargers won a must-have game last week against the Bengals and now face a Giants team likely without their top two quarterbacks.This is a tough challenge for a team playing consecutive road games.
The Lions won last week in dramatic fashion, but now must face a Broncos team that needs this game in terms of playoff survivalThe 49ers are playing a second straight road game, while the Bengals are coming off a home loss to the ChargersThe 49ers will use their run game to dictate tempo here, but I think this is a game for Joe Burrow to light up the 49ers secondary
Pick: Bengals 31, 49ers 21Buffalo is playing on a short week after playing Monday night and now must travel to play a good Bucs teamBut after playing in the elements against New England, playing here will help Josh Allen and the passing game
The Bears looked bad in losing to the Cardinals last week, but might have Justin Fields back for this game
This is an enormous game in the division and in the conferenceThe Rams played well last week against the Jaguars, but this is a big step up
