Time is moving fast, as Week 2 kicked off with a Thursday Night Football game between the Green Bay Packers and the Washington Commanders.

Both Jayden Daniels and Jordan Love had strong games, but in the end, Love and the Packers came out victorious.
Green Bay got going early, as they had a 14-3 lead at halftime. Then, despite Washington scoring multiple times in the fourth, they could not get the win.
Now, the action resumes on Sunday with some interesting matchups. Let’s take a look at those and see who will likely come out on top.
Cincinnati Bengals vs Jacksonville Jaguars (Bengals -3.5) – The Cincinnati Bengals started their season with a win, as they beat the Cleveland Browns 17-16. They were on the road for that game, but they are home for this one. They are taking on the Jacksonville Jaguars, who picked up a win over the Carolina Panthers in Week 1. They beat them 26-10. Both teams are trying to get going, and with the Bengals being home, this is a good chance to go 2-0 and start the season on a great note.
Prediction: Bengals win
Baltimore Ravens vs Cleveland Browns (Ravens -11.5) – The Baltimore Ravens were on the road last week, and they lost to the Buffalo Bills in a battle. This time around, the Ravens are home and they take on Cleveland. The Browns hosted the Bengals, and they could not get the win.
Both the Ravens and the Browns lost by one point, and with Baltimore being home,they can redeem themselves with a big win over Cleveland.
Prediction: Ravens win
Pittsburgh Steelers vs Seattle Seahawks (Steelers -3) – The Pittsburgh Steelers picked up a nice road win in their first week, as they beat the New York Jets 34-32. A late field goal helped put them over the top. Now, they will host the Seattle Seahawks, who lost to the San Francisco 49ers. The 49ers beat them 17-13 after a late touchdown gave them the lead. This could be a good game, but the Steelers should take this one.
Prediction: Steelers win
New York Jets vs Buffalo Bills (Bills -6.5) – The Jets lost their first home game, but they are looking to redeem themselves as they take on the Bills. Buffalo beat Baltimore in an exciting game, and despite being on the road, they should have no problem going 2-0. The Bills will take this game, while the Jets fall to 0-2.
Prediction: Bills take it
New Orleans Saints vs San Francisco 49ers (49ers -3) – The New Orleans Saints hosted the Arizona Cardinals last week, and the Cardinals beat them 20-13. The Saints are home again, and they face the 49ers. San Francisco had a nice win over Seattle, and this is a chance for them to go 2-0. They will likely take advantage of the opportunity.
Prediction: 49ers get the win
Miami Dolphins vs New England Patriots (Dolphins -2.5) – The Miami Dolphins suffered a big road loss to the Indianapolis Colts, but this time around, they are home as they face the New England Patriots. The Patriots lost to the Las Vegas Raiders, as Las Vegas won 20-13. Now, with New England on the road, they can try to pick up a win, but chances are, they go 0-2.
Prediction: Dolphins win
Tennessee Titans vs Los Angeles Rams (Rams -5.5) – The Tennessee Titans lost on the road last week, as the Denver Broncos beat them 20-12. The Titans are hosting the Los Angeles Rams, who picked up a solid win over the Houston Texans. The Rams have a shot at going 2-0, and they will likely do just that.
Prediction: Rams win
Detroit Lions vs Chicago Bears (Lions -6) – The Detroit Lions lost to the Packers in their last game, but they have a chance to redeem themselves as they face the Chicago Bears. The Bears started the season with a 27-24 loss against the Minnesota Vikings. Chicago was down by 10 before scoring late in the fourth quarter to trim the lead to three. They put up a fight, but in the end, it was not enough. There is a strong chance that the Lions will bounce back here and improve to 1-1.
Prediction: Lions take it
Dallas Cowboys vs New York Giants (Cowboys -5.5) – The Dallas Cowboys kicked off the season with their game against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles beat them 24-20. The Cowboys will be home this time around, as they face the New York Giants. The Giants lost to the Commanders, who beat them 21-6. This will be another challenging game for them, and chances are, the Cowboys will win. As long as Dallas does what they are supposed to do, they can improve to 1-1.
Prediction: Cowboys win
Indianapolis Colts vs Denver Broncos (Broncos – 1.5) – The Indianapolis Colts picked up a great win over the Dolphins, and they are home again as they face the Broncos. Denver defeated Tennessee, and now, they are looking to go 2-0. They should get the job done and pick up the road win.
Prediction: Broncos win
Arizona Cardinals vs Carolina Panthers ( Cardinals -6.5) – The Arizona Cardinals beat the Saints last week, and now they can pick up another win as they take on the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers lost to the Jaguars in their first game, as Jacksonville beat them 26-10. The Cardinals did well last week, and with them taking on Carolina, they can improve to 2-0.
Prediction: Cardinals win
Kansas City Chiefs vs Philadelphia Eagles (Eagles -1) – This game seems familiar, doesn’t it? The Kansas City Chiefs are taking on the Eagles in what will be a battle. Kansas City lost their first game, as the Los Angeles Chargers beat them 27-21. The Chiefs want to recover from that game, but a familiar foe stands in their way. The Eagles beat the Cowboys in their first game, and now they are looking to go 2-0 as they are on the road against the Chiefs. This one is a tough team, but due to what happened last week, I give the Chiefs a very slight edge over the Eagles.
Prediction: The Chiefs win
Minnesota Vikings vs Atlanta Falcons ( Vikings -3.5) – The Vikings beat the Bears in a close game, and the Atlanta Falcons lost a close one against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, as Tampa Bay beat them 23-20. Both teams went through battles, and when it comes to this game, the Vikings should get the win and improve to 2-0.
Prediction: Vikings win
Houston Texans vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Texans -2.5) – The Texans lost to the Rams in their first game, and now they are home hosting Tampa Bay. The Buccaneers beat the Falcons on the road, so they may pull off another win here. However, the Texans should do just enough to get the win.
Prediction: Texans
Las Vegas Raiders vs Los Angeles Chargers (Chargers -3.5) – The Chargers started their season with a bang, as they picked up the win over Kansas City. Now, they are on the road facing a team that struggled last season. The Raiders did get a win over New England last week, but the Patriots struggled last season as well. This time around, the Raiders have a tougher opponent, and the Chargers will get the win.
Prediction: Chargers win
The NFL season is a great time for sports fans, and this week is no exception. Everyone is trying to build momentum and prepare for what will be a competitive season.
