New Orleans Saints vs Los Angeles Rams
I’m really looking forward to this game as both teams can put up mega points. Last week the Saints broke their curse of only 7 wins in a season by finally getting to 8 wins and they did it in some fashion! The Saints came back from 31-13 to win 34-31 against a good Redskins team. It seems everything is clicking in going from a good defense to an electrifying offense, with both RB’s performing amazingly. The Rams were scoring points for fun in their previous games but the Vikings completely shut them down last week, and they only scored 7 points but they should do better this week. The Saints however are looking like the real deal this year and will take this. I have covered the Rams too because if they get going they are hard to stop.
Saints: 7-12, 13-18. Rams: 13-18
Jacksonville Jaguars vs Arizona Cardinals
The Jags defense is frankly amazing and they are even referring to themselves as “Sacksonville”. The Cardinals however are not performing great at all, having lost to a depleted Houston last week. The Jags will stop any Cardinals offense and will be a low scoring game.
Jags: 1-6, 7-12
Denver Broncos vs Oakland Raiders
This is hard match to call as the Broncos are not doing great at all this season, they have a decent defense but it is not enough for them to win matches unfortunately. The raiders are not much better but all-round are the stronger team, especially their offense. I can’t see anything but Raiders to win here.
Raiders: 1-6, 7-12, 13-18
Green Bay Packers vs Pittsburgh Steelers
The Packers are a depleted team since the Aaron Rodgers injury and their defense isn’t up to scratch either. They won’t be stopping Big Ben and his receivers in this game. In fact, the Steelers’ defense has always been decent and their offense is great if Big Ben gets the time he needs to get his passes off. It’s hard to stop a team that has Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell. This will be a comfortable victory for the Steelers.
Steelers: 1-6, 7-12
