NFL Predictions: Week 3's Winners and Losers

Week 3 is upon us.

The 2023 NFL season is in full swing and the Jacksonville Jaguars are hoping for a big rebound after last week's 17-9 loss.

To keep track of how we see the NFL this year, we will be doing weekly win-loss predictions, tracking our progress as the year goes on.

Last week: 10-6

Season: 20-12

Texans vs. Jaguars

Winner: Jaguars

The Jaguars struggle at home against the Texans and Trevor Lawrence is just 1-3 against them in his career, but they are missing most of their starting secondary and offensive line. The Jaguars should win this one.

Giants vs. 49ers

Winner: 49ers

The Giants started this year being outscored 60-0 in the first six quarters. They are bad.

Falcons vs. Lions

Winner: Lions

This one feels like it could go either way, but eventually the Falcons' hole at quarterback will catch up to them.

Bills vs. Commanders

Winner: Bills

This could be a fun game, but I think the Bills get past a Commanders team that isn't as good as their record, but isn't as bad as many may have thought.

Broncos vs. Dolphins

Winner: Dolphins

Mike McDaniel should be the current leader for coach of the year. The Dolphins offense is elite.

Colts vs. Ravens

Winner: Ravens

A rookie quarterback against maybe the best defensive coordinator in the NFL is a mismatch.

Chargers vs. Vikings

Winner: Chargers

It isn't at all out of the realm of possibility that the Chargers lose this game, but I think Justin Herbert can do just enough against a bad defense.

Patriots vs. Jets

Winner: Patriots

Zach Wilson vs. this defense will be a little more than ugly.

Saints vs. Packers

Winner: Saints

The Packers might be the better football team, but I think the Saints will be able to win the battle in the trenches.

Titans vs. Browns

Winner: Browns

Probably the pick I am least confident in. This one is a coin toss.

Panthers vs. Seahawks

Winner: Seahawks

The Seahawks would be heavy favorites in this game even if Bryce Young plays.

Bears vs. Chiefs

Winner: Chiefs

This might be a 30+ point win for the Chiefs. The Bears are the worst team in football right now.

Cowboys vs. Cardinals

Winner: Cowboys

Godspeed, Josh Dobbs.

Steelers vs. Raiders

Winner: Steelers

A game that feels like it could go either way, but the Steelers seem due.

Eagles vs. Buccaneers

Winner: Eagles

The Eagles' pass-rush should help Baker Mayfield turn back into a pumpkin.

Rams vs. Bengals

Winner: Rams

The Rams are much better this year than anyone expected them to be. They might play Jake Browning, too.
