When your team is on bye that week always feels like more than one week. The Minnesota Vikings return to the field this week after what feels like a very long wait. It's Week 10.
Byes: Baltimore Ravens, Kansas City Chiefs, Oakland Raiders, Philadelphia Eagles
Minnesota Vikings @ Washington Redskins
Pick: Vikings
The Vikings entered their Week 9 bye on a 4-game win streak. Hopefully that idle week didn't stop that fine momentum.
New Orleans Saints @ Buffalo Bills
Pick: Saints
This is an interesting game. The Bills were playing well until they fell apart against the New York Jets last week. The Saints have won six straight.
Cincinnati Bengals @ Tennessee Titans
Pick: Titans
Neither team is playing great but the Titans are playing better. And their at home.
Los Angeles Chargers @ Jacksonville Jaguars
Pick: Chargers
I'm not sure what the Jaguars have to do for me to trust them. The defense is fierce. My concerns surely stem from the quarterback that leads them. Whatever the Jaguars have to do they haven't done it yet. The Chargers can challenge any team.
New York Jets @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Pick: Jets
Josh McCown vs Ryan Fitzpatrick! McCown's been playing in real games with his guys longer than Fitzpatrick has been playing with his guys. And Mike Evans isn't one of Fitzpatrick's guys this week.
Green Bay Packers @ Chicago Bears
Pick: Packers
The most contested rivalry in the history of the league. Some call it the longest rivalry. It's not. That honor goes to the Bears-Cardinals. This is a fun, historic rivalry. I'm going with the Packers in this one.
Cleveland Browns @ Detroit Lions
Pick: Lions
On paper, there's not much question about this one.
Pittsburgh Steelers @ Indianapolis Colts
Pick: Steelers
There's not much question about this one either.
Houston Texans @ Los Angeles Rams
Pick: Rams
My goodness, this would be a fun game if both teams entered it healthy. The Texans aren't healthy for this one.
Dallas Cowboys @ Atlanta Falcons
Pick: Falcons
Do the Falcons finally get on track against a Cowboys team that's finally missing Ezekiel Elliott?
New York Giants @ San Francisco 49ers
Pick: 49ers
This one's a scorcher! Again, I pick Kyle Shanahan to get his first head coaching win.
New England Patriots @ Denver Broncos
Pick: Patriots
The Broncos defense has to respond to getting taken apart by the Philadelphia Eagles. I don't see the Broncos offense doing enough to win this one.
Miami Dolphins @ Carolina Panthers
Pick: Panthers
The Panthers defense is terrific. The offense has done enough in most games and a lot more than that in a few games. And they're at home.
There it is.
