Flea Flicker Week 3 Predictions

Thursday's game was a nail-biter. Hopefully the rest of the Week 3 games are closer. Here are some predictions of those games.

Minnesota Vikings @ Carolina Panthers
Pick: Vikings
No Teddy Bridgewater. No Adrian Peterson. No Matt Kalil. No Shariff Floyd. That injury list is getting pretty long after a clean training camp. That has to end. The Vikings will find a way to win in Carolina.

Cleveland Browns @ Miami Dolphins
Pick: Dolphins
I want to pick the Browns for the upset. I can't. They are on their third quarterback. In the third game.

Arizona Cardinals @ Buffalo Bills
Pick: Cardinals
The Bills have had more things go wrong than the Browns. At least they still have their starting quarterback. The Cardinals are probably going to play the rest of the season hell-bent on proving that the Patriots loss was a fluke.

Oakland Raiders @ Tennessee Titans
Pick: Titans
The Raiders have to get their defense fixed.

Baltimore Ravens @ Jacksonville Jaguars
Pick: Jaguars
Are the Jaguars really as bad as they looked last week? Are the Ravens really as good as their record? The Ravens two wins came against the Bills and Browns. The Jaguars have to win this game.

Washington Redskins @ New York Giants
Pick: Giants
NFC East division battles are always fun. The Giants are playing well. Especially on defense. The Redskins aren't.

Denver Broncos @ Cincinnati Bengals
Pick: Bengals
The Broncos defense is tremendous. I see the Bengals offense doing just enough to win.

Detroit Lions @ Green Bay Packers
Pick: Packers
Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been bashed a bunch this week. The Lions could be on the wrong side of that.

Los Angeles Rams @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Pick: Buccaneers
The Rams offense has yet to start the 2016 NFL season. Unless Todd Gurley goes ballistic they are going to have a tough time winning all season. Except when the play the Seahawks.

San Francisco 49ers @ Seattle Seahawks
Pick: Seahawks
The Seahawks offense is struggling. If Russell Wilson is more healthy than he was last week they should find a way to score enough.

Pittsburgh Steelers @ Philadelphia Eagles
Pick: Steelers
Eagles rookie quarterback Carson Wentz has been great in his first two games but he's finally playing against a decent team.

New York Jets @ Kansas City Chiefs
Pick: Jets
This is a tough one. The Jets in a close game.

San Diego Chargers @ Indianapolis Cotls
Pick: Colts
This could be a shootout. I'll go with Andrew Luck over Philip Rivers.

Chicago Bears @ Dallas Cowboys
Pick: Cowboys
Two straight weeks with the Bears on Prime Time! That's not right! The Bears are struggling on the field and with injuries.

Atlanta Falcons @ New Orleans Saints
Pick: Falcons
This NFC South rivalry is often very entertaining. This game could be a shootout. I'll go with the team that has a few fewer issues on defense.

There it is.
