All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Chicago (0-1) vs Cincinnati (1-0) Game Preview


Why Cincinnati Will Win

Joe Burrow is healthy, seemingly back to normal, and he has receivers who can catch.

Matthew Stafford lit up the Bears for 321 yards and three touchdowns with big plays doing in the secondary in the Ram win on Sunday night, and now it’s Burrow’s turn after a solid 261-yard, two-touchdown effort in the overtime win over Minnesota.

A 200-yard passing machine, Burrow and first round pick Ja’Marr Chase hooked for a 50-yard touchdown, he came up with a few other big throws, and it should all keep going against a Chicago defense that didn’t generate a lick of pressure last week.

Week 2 NFL Schedule, Predictions

Why Chicago Will Win

The running game worked.

That’s not a given for a Chicago offense that didn’t do much of anything until late last year. The LA Ram defensive front was supposed to be impenetrable, but David Montgomery ran well, Andy Dalton was hit too much, and the offense wasn’t totally miserable.

Everyone wants to see Justin Fields, but Dalton was fine. Not amazing, not special, but fine. He didn’t get a whole lot of help from the defense, though, and he has to start taking more chances down the field.

By the way, Kirk Cousins hit the Bengals for 351 yards.

Week 2 NFL Expert Picks

What’s Going To Happen

The Chicago defense was able to hold down the LA rushing attack but had way too many breakdowns in the secondary. That will slow down just a wee bit.

Burrow will connect on a few big plays like he did last week, but the Bears will get a few more plays out of Fields, Dalton will continue to be serviceable, and it’ll be a grinding win with the D playing a whole lot better.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Cleveland (0-1) vs Houston (1-0) Game Preview


Why Houston Will Win

Lost a bit in the fog of the first NFL Sunday was that Houston wasn’t totally awful.

Tyrod Taylor didn’t make the mistakes Trevor Lawrence did in the 37-21 Texan win, Mark Ingram gave the team a ground game, and the offense had an explosive element.

It’s a different animal this week against a Cleveland team that won’t make the same mistakes, but it got banged up on the offensive front in the loss to Kansas City. The D was awful on third downs, the two turnovers were a killer – ending with a Baker Mayfield game-killing pick, and …

Week 2 NFL Schedule, Predictions

Why Cleveland Will Win

The Browns ran the ball, and they’re going to do it again.

They’ll have one of the best ground attacks all season long – the 153 yards and close to six yards per carry in the 33-29 loss just scratched the surface.

Houston did a whole lot of things right in the win over the Jaguars, but it got hit a bit too hard by Carlos Hyde and the running game, and it didn’t generate enough pressure in the backfield. Just assume that Nick Chubb and Kareem Hunt combine for close to 125 yards, minimum.

Week 2 NFL Expert Picks

What’s Going To Happen

Cleveland did everything right last week except actually win the game. But Houston isn’t Kansas City.

Houston did almost everything right last week and won shockingly easily. But Cleveland isn’t Jacksonville.

Mayfield won’t have to press and the offense won’t have to work to keep up. Hand it off, let the D get a big day out of the great ends, hand it off, repeat.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Los Angeles Rams (1-0) vs Indianapolis (0-1) Game Preview


Why Indianapolis Will Win

If Chicago could run on the Rams …
It was one of the justifications by the Bears for not playing Justin Fields more – the Los Angeles defensive front might ruin his career in Week 1. But the miserable Chicago offensive line didn’t get totally destroyed, and it actually provided a bit of a push for over five yards per carry and a nice day from David Montgomery.

Now it’s Jonathan Taylor’s turn.

He did everything in the loss last week to Seattle but score and bust out a big run. He couldn’t shake loose, but he still ran for 56 yards and led the team with six catches for 60 yards.

The Colts held on to the ball seemingly for forever – close to 36 minutes, but …

Week 2 NFL Schedule, Predictions

Why Los Angeles Rams Will Win

It’s not like the Rams need a whole lot of time to operate. They only had the ball for close to 25 minutes.

Lost in the 34-14 win over Chicago was how close that thing was late in the third quarter. It was 20-14 Rams after Fields ran for a score, but the D clamped down and the O scored 14 unanswered points on two solid drives to put it away.

That came after two mega-throws from Matthew Stafford earlier in the game for touchdowns.

Week 2 NFL Expert Picks

What’s Going To Happen

The Los Angeles defensive front was more than fine against Chicago. Aaron Donald might have been too silent, but the team was never out of control in any way.

The one big issue for the Bears – besides getting hit for two home runs – was the inability to do anything down the field. Andy Dalton was fine, but he dinked and dunked without making any big plays. Last week against Seattle, Carson Wentz was fine, but he dinked and dunked without making any big plays.

The Colt running game won’t get it done.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Buffalo (0-1) vs Miami (1-0) Game Preview


Why Buffalo Will Win

The Bills did everything right but win the game.

They outgained Pittsburgh by 121 yards in the 23-16 home loss, they ran well enough, and they did a great job moving the chains. There were too many penalties, the D didn’t come up with any takeaways, and the O had a rough time putting the biscuit in the basket when it got in scoring range, but they were hardly bad.

On the flip side of that was Miami. It couldn’t run against New England, it had a hard time putting the game away, and Tua Tagovailoa was outplayed by Mac Jones, and then … it won.

The Buffalo defensive front should keep the Dolphins from doing anything on the ground, and while Tagovailoa pulled off the victory, he’s going to have to prove he can handle the pressure that’s coming.

Week 2 NFL Expert Picks

Why Miami Will Win

The pressure is all on the Buffalo side of the field.

It’s not like the Dolphins don’t have to take care of home, and of course pulling off the win would be massive early on in the division race, but after last week’s loss the Bills might try to press right away to make up for all of the missed opportunities against the Steelers.

Tagovailoa won’t have Will Fuller to throw to – he’s out with a personal issue after being suspended for the first game – but Jaylen Waddle quickly looked like a keeper, the backs turned into nice safety valves, and there’s going to be a nice blend of safe and short with deep and dangerous.
Miami has the weapons to mix it up.

Week 2 NFL Schedule, Predictions

What’s Going To Happen

Buffalo will win, but it won’t be emphatic thumping it might be looking for.

If the Miami offensive line can hold serve and the running game can be just okay, Tagovailoa will get hot for stretches and keep pressing. But the Dolphin secondary that got hit for too many midrange plays against the Patriots will be in for a monster day from Josh Allen. He won’t throw 51 times again, but he’ll be more effective in the red zone.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

New England (0-1) vs New York Jets (0-1) Game Preview


Why New England Will Win

The new guy was more than fine.

New England managed to lose to Miami 17-16 even though it got a terrific game out of Mac Jones, 100 rushing yards out of Damien Harris, and a strong defensive day that held Miami to nothing in the fourth quarter.

The problem were the stalled drives – too many field goals and just one touchdown. In this, just don’t screw up and let the defensive front do the rest.

The Carolina defensive front will be a problem all year long, and the Jets couldn’t handle it in the 19-14 loss. They were in the game, but Zach Wilson was sacked six times and there wasn’t a lick of a running attack to help the cause.

Week 2 NFL Schedule, Predictions

Why New York Jets Will Win

The kid was alright.

Wilson didn’t get the win, and he’s going to need a whole lot of seasoning and time to sharpen up, but he was under pressure by the Panthers all game long and he still managed to spread the ball around well and come up with a whole slew of big plays.

Yes, New England was fine against Miami, but it wasn’t sharp enough. There were too many penalties, two turnovers – there should’ve been a few more – and it didn’t do nearly enough considering it had the ball for almost 37 minutes and controlled the game.

Week 2 NFL Expert Picks

What’s Going To Happen

This week, the New England formula will work.
