All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Atlanta at New Orleans Game Preview


Why Atlanta Will Win

Really, can Trevor Siemian move the offense as the full-time guy for New Orleans?

It’s going to be the Taysom Hill show when he really is ready, and it’s not like Jameis Winston was lighting it up with the passing attack, but Siemian is really a third-string guy who’s got to prove he can keep this all moving despite the absence of a slew of top receiving targets.

The New Orleans offense doesn’t take big shots down the field, and the scoring should stay in range as long as Matt Ryan and the Falcon attack don’t have turnover issues, but …

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 8

Why New Orleans Will Win

Atlanta has two major issues.

It can’t really stop the run. New Orleans isn’t going to do anything crazy. It’s going to run with Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram, run them some more, and repeat. The Falcons got run over by Carolina last week and gave up 100 yards or more on the ground in four of the last five games.

Calvin Ridley – his absence kills the team’s yardage total. Kyle Pitts will get targeted a ton, and Ryan moves the ball around, but the passing game sputtered last week without Ridley.

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

Ryan will get his yards in this.

New Orleans will come up with the big stops needed to close out drives and force field goals, and there won’t be any running game from Atlanta. Siemian will be fine – nothing special – and Kamara and Ingram will combine for close to 200 yards as the Saint O is more methodical than sensational.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Las Vegas at New York Giants Game Preview


Why Las Vegas Will Win

The running game should start working again.

The Raiders only have two 100-yard games, and they’re having too much fun bombing away with the passing attack, but the Giants are getting run on too easily allowing more than 100 yards in four of the last five games.

With the emergence of Kenyan Drake to go along with Josh Jacobs, it’ll be too easy to keep hading the ball off and pound away, Derek Carr shouldn’t have much of an issue against a porous Giants pass D, and the offense will keep on coming without the mistakes.

New York lives on takeaways, and Las Vegas doesn’t give them up – it has yet to turn it over multiple times in a game.

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

Why New York Giants Will Win

The defense has stepped up.

The offense has been a struggle with Saquon Barkley not able to do much and with a constantly banged up receiving corps, but the D held down Kansas City to 20 points and stuffed Carolina in a 25-3 win.

Daniel Jones has been quietly solid. He’s not among the elite quarterbacks by any means, but he’s doing a decent job of carrying the O by himself, and he should be able push the passing game a bit with a whole lot of dinking and dunking to keep the chains moving.

Control the clock, and the Giant defense should do its part, but …

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

The Giants are heading into the bye week and the Raiders are coming off of theirs.

It’s hardly been a restful time off with the Henry Ruggs situation adding on yet another horrible moment in a season full of adversity.

The Giant defense will keep this from getting out of hand early, but the Raider defense that came up with six takeaways over the last two weeks will help the team pull away with a key late turnover.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

New England at Carolina Game Preview


Why New England Will Win

Where’s the Carolina offense?

Christian McCaffrey might be back, but he’s hardly going to be in full-go mode. Sam Darnold has been hurt and bad, the passing game has stalled out with fewer than 160 yards in three of the last four games, and it shouldn’t take too much to put this thing away.

New England has the ground game going. It won three of its last four games with 120 rushing yards or more running the ball, Mac Jones has been solid, and the O should be able to grind this out and keep the steady production going, but …

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

Why Carolina Will Win

For all of the issues, Carolina is great at coming up with third down stops.

New England has been careful with the ball over the last few games, but it turned it over two or more times over a four game run, and Carolina has generated two takeaways in two of the last four games.

It has to force mistakes to help out the O.

The Panthers aren’t allowing a whole lot of downfield plays, and it’s great at dealing with the grinding teams and not giving up a whole lot of first downs or big passing yards, but …

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

This is the exact time of opponent each team wants to face.

Carolina is good against the run, New England likes teams that don’t have high-powered attacks.

New England is more consistent and doing more with its offense and running game. The Patriot defense will close down a Carolina ground game that went off on Atlanta but will struggle this week.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Jacksonville at Buffalo Game Preview


Why Jacksonville Will Win

What can the Jaguars do against the NFL’s No. 1 O and No. 1 D?

Get running.

Yeah, Buffalo is that good, but it’s also been able to beat a whole lot of mediocre teams – and that includes Kansas City, for now.

Tennessee was able to run, and Kansas City ground out 120 yards. Jacksonville was able to run well on the Titans, Bengals, and Cardinals, and it has to at least give it a shot from the start to take the pressure off its rookie quarterback.

Trevor Lawrence and the passing game have been terrific, but he won’t have to do it all. As long as he’s avoiding the turnovers and moving the chains, he’ll be doing his job. But …

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

Why Buffalo Will Win

Buffalo isn’t making enough mistakes to give this away, and Jacksonville isn’t doing anything to force errors.

The Jaguars have just two takeaways on the year, and Buffalo has just two turnovers in its last five games. There’s no need to do anything crazy here.

Go with the balanced attack, don’t take any chances, assume the defense will come through time and again and assume the pass defense will take care of Lawrence.

The Bills are fantastic on third downs on both sides of the ball – Jacksonville is the second-worst team in the NFL on third downs.

Get a few early points, and this should be over.

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

Buffalo hasn’t exactly been sharp over its last few games, and it’s going to try rectifying that right away in this.

It’ll come up with two quick scoring drives, Jacksonville will get away from the running game, and this will get ugly just after halftime. The Buffalo defense will pitch a gem.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Minnesota at Baltimore Game Preview


Why Minnesota Will Win

Can the Viking D load up against the run again?

It dared Cooper Rush to lead Dallas to a win last week, and he did. However, the Cowboy running game was held in check by the ultra-focused effort, and that’s what has to happen against the Raven offense.

It’s not as simple as stopping the Ravens when you stop the run, but on the flip side, the D can’t let the ground attack go off. Lamar Jackson has been terrific when he has to throw, but this is still the worst passing game in the NFL yardage-wise.

The Minnesota offense will eventually open it up. There are too many weapons, there’s too much talent, and …

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

Why Baltimore Will Win

What’s up with the Minnesota O?

Dalvin Cook is as okay as he’s going to be health-wise, the receiving corps is still loaded, Kirk Cousins has been playing well enough, and this thing just isn’t moving.

Great early on, the Vikings have failed to hit 20 points in three of its last four games, and now it has to deal with a rested Baltimore defense.

Things got ugly in the blowout loss to Cincinnati, and Indianapolis went off for over 500 yards a few weeks before that. However, this looked and played like a defense that desperately needed a bit of a break, but …

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

The worst pass defense in the NFL is about to get bombed on – at least, Minnesota has to give it a shot.

There’s no excuse. Derek Carr, Joe Burrow, Carson Wentz, and even Patrick Mahomes were able to go off on this Raven D, and so will Cousins.

And it still won’t be enough.

Baltimore will be balanced offensively, fresher, and Lamar Jackson will be far better on third downs for an offense that struggled at times to do just that.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Los Angeles Chargers at Philadelphia Game Preview


Why Los Angeles Chargers Will Win

So why isn’t this working? What’s going on?

The running game didn’t work at all against Baltimore – it was a blowout loss.

The two turnovers were a problem as the O bogged down against what New England does – it was a loss.

The balanced attack that was so strong early in the season can’t seem to take over games like it should with its overall talent level, but that’s where the Philadelphia defense comes in.

The Eagles were able to dominate a sad Detroit team, but that was the first time the run defense was able to hold anyone down – it allowed over 100 rushing yards in each of the first seven games.

The Chargers might have lost to the Patriots, but the O rumbled for over 160 yards, the passing attack was able to spread it around, and …

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

Why Philadelphia Will Win

The Chargers can’t stop the run – at all.

Granted, the stats are skewed after getting blasted by Cleveland and New England over the last few weeks, but everyone but Las Vegas ran wild on the NFL’s worst run defense before that.

Boston Scott, Jordan Howard, and Jalen Hurts are able to combine forces to throw a variety of options at the Charger D – the Eagles rolled for 236 yards against Detroit – and they should be able to come up with a second straight game without having to go all out to rally late.

The Eagles will score early. They’ll control the clock as much as they want and they’ll be decent on third downs, but …

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

The Chargers aren’t Detroit.

This might be a rough run over the last few weeks for Los Angeles, and it has to step up on the road against a ground game that should push for 200 yards, but Justin Herbert will spread the ball around for what should be a balanced O.

The Eagles will get their yards and will be in it late, but LA wins with a walk-off field goal.

Green Bay at Kansas City Game Preview


Why Green Bay Will Win

There’s more to this Green Bay team than just Aaron Rodgers.

Obviously No. 12 is the star, the main man, and the franchise, but the Packers can run the ball, the defense is terrific, and it’s all going against a Kansas City team that just isn’t very good.

What does a team with an inexperienced quarterback like Jordan Love need? Lots and lots of takeaways from the D.

The Packers have force two takeaways or more in six of the last seven games, and Kansas City can’t stop itself from screwing up with 12 turnovers in the last four games and 19 since getting through the opener clean.

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

Why Kansas City Will Win

Jordan Love.

Talk about pressure, now it’s Game On.

He’ll get a wee bit of a free pass just because of the situation, but he was drafted where he was for a reason – he’s supposed to be the next superstar QB up after Favre and Rodgers.

The Chief pass rush has to be great right away, the offense has to come up with a few early scores to put the pressure on Love and the Packers to press, and for all the problems and all of the issues, the passing game still works.

This might not be the high-flying fun show of past years, but Patrick Mahomes will throw for close to 300 yards. However …

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

Turnovers. You can say you’re focusing on stopping them, but it’s another thing to actually do it.

The pressure actually isn’t on Love – this has been a tumultuous week and a loss would almost all fall on Rodgers, at least by the fans and the media. Kansas City is trying to stay alive and it’s supposed to win at home over the new guy quarterback.

The rest of the Packers will rise up. The running game will be good, the defense will be great, and Love will be good enough.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Arizona at San Francisco Game Preview


Why Arizona Will Win

The running game has the pieces to rise up.

Kyler Murray might be hurting, and the defense isn’t enough of a rock to pick up the slack against a team as solid as the 49ers, but the Cardinals have a 1-2 rushing tandem of James Conner and Chase Edmonds to carry the team.

At absolute worst, Colt McCoy is a veteran passer who can spread the ball around to all of the weapons, and again, he’s got guys to hand off to. Murray account for a chunk of this, but the running game is among the best in the NFL.

However …

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

Why San Francisco Will Win

It’s not just Murray – DeAndre Hopkins is hurting, too.

San Francisco is coming off a great day on the ground against Chicago, with Elijah Mitchell growing into a star – as long as he can stay healthy. The Cardinals got run over by Khalil Herbert and Justin Fields last week, and the 49ers will throw Trey Lance into the equation, too.

The pass defense is among the best in the NFL, the D is great at getting off the field, and it was able to hold Arizona to 17 points in the first game – and that was when Murray was healthy.

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

The 49ers haven’t been all that sharp offensively and the defense hasn’t been as good as it needs to be against the run, and that’s about to be a problem in this, too.

They held Arizona to under 100 yards on the ground in the first meeting, but they’re about to get hit hard by Conner and Edmonds with a different sort of performance by the Cardinals.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Tennessee at Los Angeles Rams Game Preview


Why Tennessee Will Win

So how does life go on after 22?

Derrick Henry might be out, but the offensive line is still solid, there are still weapons at receiver, and the defense has been fantastic over the last several games, especially when it comes to taking the ball away.

The Titans have generated six takeaway over the last two games and nine over the four game winning streak, but the biggest key will be to generate something against the run. Jeremy McNichols is about to get every shot to show what he can do against an inconsistent Ram run D.

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

Why Los Angeles Rams Will Win

The Tennessee pass defense has been a tad soft.

It’s doing an okay job at getting to the quarterback, but it’s not going to stop Matthew Stafford from letting his downfield passes develop. More than that, he’s not going to screw up.

The Titans might be great at forcing takeaways, but the rams aren’t screwing up with none in the last two games and with four of the eight games without a giveaway.

The one time the Rams lost, they were hit by the Arizona running game – which threw a slew of things at them. This would’ve been the game for Henry to take over.

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

Is Ryan Tannehill ready to make the O go? He has to spread the passing game around, he’ll need to use his legs, and he’ll need the defense to keep this from becoming a shootout.

Los Angeles isn’t playing Detroit. It’s not playing Houston, or even the Giants or Seattle. It’s going to be a fight, but they’ll pull through with a few key late field goals.

All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Chicago at Pittsburgh Game Preview


Why Chicago Will Win

Chicago lost last week to San Francisco, but the offense started to show sparks.

It was just one touchdown run, but that was the Justin Fields everyone was waiting for. Khalil Herbert has been great, David Montgomery might be back, and the Bears are going to try grinding away on a Steeler run defense that was great last week against the Browns but will give up yards.

Can Pittsburgh get all of the parts working against the Chicago defense? Every once in a while – like in the win over the Raiders and the victory over the Bengals – this group finds another gear to do a whole lot of bending without a lot of breaking.

The Steelers will get the yards. Getting points on the board hasn’t been easy for this attack.

NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

Why Pittsburgh Will Win

The Chicago defense isn’t all that bad statistically, but it just got run over by San Francisco, Jimmy Garrappolo was magnificent, and it was the third time in six games the team allowed more than 400 yards.

The Steelers aren’t going to give up a slew of turnovers, and Chicago’s D doesn’t force them – just one in the last three games.

Keep this simple. Make it a steady diet of Najee Harris, send the great defensive ends after Fields and make him take off – it’s fine if he has a big run or three – and don’t worry a lick about the league’s worst passing game.

Chicago won’t hit 150 yards through the air.

College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

What’s Going To Happen

Will Chicago show up?

This team has a horrible habit of going into the tank fast if the gameplan doesn’t work.

Pass protection-wise, it won’t be quite as ugly as the loss to Cleveland earlier in the year, but TJ Watt is about to have himself a very, very nice evening.
