Texans Make Statement With Bills Shutout

While Houston’s offense still has a lot of room for improvement, there’s no denying that the Texans have the NFL’s best defense. Of course, Buffalo’s offense, led by Josh Allen, is also elite. Houston’s defense has held seven offenses to under 20 points this season, and they’ve had one shutout. Buffalo’s been limited to under 15 points just twice, but they haven’t faced a defense as good as Houston’s quite yet.

Aaron Jones’ 120-Yard Day Helps Vikings Sail Past Packers

There was a time when Aaron Jones was the Packers’ leading tailback, but they cut him loose in 2024, and he promptly signed with the rival Vikings. The one-time Pro Bowler has yet to cross the century mark from scrimmage this season, but that will change going up against his old team

Aaron Rodgers’ ownership of the Bears is well-documented. He just fractured his wrist, and the Steelers are working out new quarterbacks. Yet, we know he’s motivated to beat his old rival. We won’t be surprised when Rodgers surgically slices up the Bears’ defense again on Sunday.

Their defense allows the most points in the NFL, so Flacco will have to keep firing to beat the Patriots on Sunday. But if the Bengals’ defense keeps giving up points, we could see Cincinnati score a season-high 45 points.

The Giants are falling apart at the seams, and injuries to their best playmakers haven’t helped matters. The Lions still boast one of the NFL’s best scoring offenses, and we expect them to get back on track against one of the NFL’s worst defenses this week.

Titans Lose to Seahawks by 20+ Points

The Titans are the NFL’s worst team, averaging the fewest points per game and allowing the third-most. Meanwhile, Seattle has a top ten offense and defense. In other words, we expect a full-on bloodbath on Sunday, where the Seahawks can put in their backups in the fourth quarter.

Colts Intercept Patrick Mahomes 4 Times, Win

The Colts lost two weeks ago because they uncharacteristically turned the ball over six times. They’ve committed multiple turnovers just three times. Now it’s time for the Colts’ defense to...
