    The Houston Texans have made it through this far without a loss thanks to two impressive comebacks. The Baltimore Ravens look nothing like Super Bowl champions, but should do slightly better with each week as they get used to the lack of veterans on defense that has to be affecting the leadership situation in the locker room and on the field.

    2013 NFL Season – Week 3 Predictions

    In week 3 of the 2013 NFL season, the visit of the Indianapolis Colts to the San Francisco 49ers stands at the center of attention, although the Green Bay Packers trying to get a winning streak at the Cincinnati Bengals or the Pittsburgh Steelers trying to prove this season isn’t lost while hosting the Chicago Bears should be very interesting as well.

    Must Win Games for NFL Teams in Week 3

    The 0-2 start is always somewhat of a crossroads for teams – some don’t expect to win too much so it doesn’t mean much as well.

    While the Andy Reid Bowl will be the focus of the week 3 opener between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, at the heart of this clash will be the attempts of the home side to be more than just a super-quick offensive team, while the visitors will try to simply slow them down, like they’ve done well against their other NFC opponents last week.

    Not a lot of movement in the top 25, as even the Alabama win over Texas A&M dropped the Aggies only four spots, keeping them among the top 10.

  • 2012 NFL Season – Week 3 Predictions

    Both the New England Patriots and the Baltimore Ravens weren’t expecting to be 1-1 at this point, but the Ravens have an excuse of playing a stronger opponent in their loss.

  • 2012 NFL Season, Week 3 – Giants vs Panthers Predictions

    The Super Bowl champions are 1-1, heading into Carolina to face the Panthers and Cam Newton, feeling confident only because of Eli Manning’s second half performance in week 2, but knowing they’ve got a lot of problems all across the field, especially with their running game and secondary.

    Back to the SEC, Alabama-LSU 1-2 thing. This was the case last season on 8 of the rankings, although LSU were the number one team until they lost in the national championship game.
