Detroit Lions @ Pittsburgh Steelers
The Lions had last week off to prepare for the Pittsburgh Steelers. There actually isn’t enough time off for Detroit to even think about beating Pittsburgh. The Steelers are a top 10 defense. The Lions well, they’re not. If not for the Jets, the Lions would be dead last in scoring defense (30.5 ppg). Detroit averages less than 17 points a game on offense. This is a bad football team and the Steelers are improving… PITTSBURGH 23, DETROIT 6
Tampa Bay Bucs @ Washington Football Team
The Bucs are ready to get back on track after their loss to New Orleans. With time to prepare, the Football Team is in for some trouble. In the Tom Brady era in Tampa, the Bucs are 5-1 when coming off a loss. Washington has lost four straight games and the offense continues to get worse. The Football Team has scored 22, 13, 10, and 10 in its last four games. The Bucs will be firing on all cylinders looking for a seventh win. That’s why they are a 7.5-point road favorite… TAMPA BAY 35, WASHINGTON 17
Carolina Panthers @ Arizona Cardinals
No Kyler Murray, no DeAndre Hopkins? No problem. The Cardinals leaned on RB James Conner last week and backup QB Colt McCoy went 22-for-26 and 249 yards in a win over the 49ers. Carolina’s offense is an absolute mess. The Panthers have lost five of their last six games. In their last three games, Carolina has scored a total of 28 points. That’s not going to cut it against the 8-1 Cardinals… ARIZONA 33, CAROLINA 17
