Agree or Disagree?

Chicago (-4.5) at Oakland — DISAGREE

Oakland is a lot of fun to watch and they’re riding high off an upset win at Indianapolis. Plus, in a game that’s taking place in London, I’ll go with the more experienced quarterback (Carr) and head coach (Gruden). Never forget the Bears have a career back-up starting for them (Daniel) and a second-year head coach (Nagy).

Arizona (+3) at Cincinnati — AGREE

The Bengals are one of the NFL’s bottom three, no doubt about it. Arizona, on the other hand, is probably the best winless team out there and the players believe in the direction they’re headed. The Cardinals get their first win of the season here.

Tampa Bay at New Orleans (-3) — AGREE

Tampa Bay is overvalued a bit after beating the Rams. They’re exciting this year but wildly inconsistent. On the other side, Teddy Bridgewater is as even keel as they come and the Saints just proved against the Cowboys how tough they can be. Throw in home-field advantage and this is a no-brainer pick.

Minnesota (-4.5) at NY Giants — AGREE

A lot of chatter recently about the Vikings’ offense and how unexplosive they are. I expect them to come together and try to prove the narrative wrong. They also have a lot more talent than New York and Daniel Jones hasn’t faced a defense as tough as Minnesota’s unit yet.

Green Bay (+3.5) at Dallas— DISAGREE

Both teams are coming off primetime losses last week and both have significant injury concerns. Home-field advantage matters in this league, though, and Dallas has been dominant at their place this year. They’ve outscored opponents 66-23 in Dallas so far this season.
