2017 NFL Week 4: Preview and Predictions (Beating the Spread)

New Orleans Saints(-3) at Miami Dolphins(London)

The Dolphins took an unexpected shot on the chin against the Jets, while the Saints got a huge road win in Carolina. The Dolphins offense led by Jay Cutler will not be able to score enough points to keep up with the Saints in this one.

Prediction: Saints 31  Dolphins 16

Carolina Panthers at New England Patriots(-9)

Cam Newton and the Panthers offense is not playing well at all and going to New England will not help matters for the Panthers.

Prediction: Patriots 38  Panthers 17

L.A.Rams at Dallas Cowboys(-6)

The Rams are one of the NFL’s surprise teams this season and they may be able to contend in a weak NFC West. The Cowboys played well in the second half in Arizona and look to be finally starting to click.

Prediction: Cowboys 27  Rams 13

Tennessee Titans(-1) at Houston Texans

Deshaun Watson played well in New England last Sunday and looks to be the answer for the Texans at the QB position. With that being said I think the Titans will get a close win here as they have an offensive line that should be able to deal with the  Texans pass rush.

Prediction: Titans 24  Texans 20

Jacksonville Jaguars(-3) at New York Jets

The Jets dominated the Dolphins last week and seem to have a lot of fight in them. I think in this game though points will be hard to come by and I think the Jags have more on offense that the Jets do.

Prediction: Jaguars 20  Jets 10

Cincinnati Bengals(-3) at Cleveland Browns

The return of Linebacker Vontaze Burfict makes this Bengals defense a dominating unit and against a rookie QB I look for the Bengals defense to rule the day.

Prediction: Bengals 27  Browns 10

Pittsburgh Steelers(-3) at Baltimore Ravens

On paper the Steelers look like a great team, on the field they have not looked great. The Ravens offense is bad, but the defense will get them a much needed win in this game.

Prediction: Ravens 17  Steelers 16

Buffalo Bills at Atlanta Falcons(-8)

The Falcons look to be the class of the league so far in this young season. The Bills are a young team that looks too be much improved. The Falcons just have to many weapons.

Prediction: Falcons 34  Bills 20

N.Y.Giants at Tampa Bay Buccaneers(-3)

The Giants offensive line will be what loses them this game.

Prediction: Buccaneers 23  Giants 17

Philadelphia Eagles(-1.5) at Los Angeles Chargers

I don’t get this line, how can the Chargers be favored over the Eagles? I have no idea, but I do know I am taking the Eagles and the points.

Prediction: Eagles 31  Chargers 24

San Francisco 49ers at Arizona Cardinals(-7)

This is a matchup between two teams that are not very good.

Prediction: Cardinals 27  49ers 17

Oakland Raiders at Denver Broncos(-3)

This game has become tough to call after the results of last weekend. I am going to go with the Broncos home-field advantage and suffocating defense in a close one.

Prediction: Broncos 20  Raiders 16

Indianapolis Colts at Seattle Seahawks(-13)

I just don’t see the Colts being able to score enough points to win this game.

Prediction: Seahawks 34  Colts 13

Washington Redskins at Kansas City Chiefs(-6.5)

The Chiefs are playing the best football in the AFC so far this year and the Skins are a surprise team. I am going with the home team here in a close one.

Prediction: Chiefs 24  Redskins 17
