TNF:

Tampa (4-1) @ Philly (2-3)
Tampa is #1 in passing, #1 in stopping the run (45.8 ypg; 2.9 y/att). Philly is #3 vs the pass, #4 in y/att rushing (5.2). Should be a Tampa win as they could put up comparable numbers to Dallas (41 pts) and KC (42 pts). But strange things happen in the NFL.

London Game (6:30 am PST)
Miami (1-4)@ Jax (0-5)
Does anybody outside of Florida really care?

Early Games Sunday:

Houston (1-4) @ Indy (1-4)
Gotta go with Indy here, despite snatching defeat from the jaws of victory on MNF.

LAC (4-1) @ Baltimore (4-1)
Battle of division leaders. Best game in the early group.

Minnesota (2-3) @ Carolina (3-2)
Has the air come out of that Carolina balloon? I think so.

KC (2-3) @ Washington (2-3)
Washington needs a win. Bad news for them is so does KC.

Cincinnati (3-2) @ Detroit (0-5)
It's gotta come down to a FG, right? 19-17 Cincinnati!!

Green Bay (4-1) @ Chicago (3-2)
Interesting game. With a win the Bears would be leading the North. I don't see it.

Late Games:

Arizona (5-0) @ Cleveland (3-2)
Arizona is letting up 139 yards per game on the ground. Ironically, the only team they held under 100 was Tennessee in week 1. The Browns are averaging 187 on the ground. Unstoppable force meets totally movable object? The Ram fan in me says Cleveland wins.

Las Vegas (3-2) @ Denver (3-2)
Do the Raiders recover from 2 straight losses and the Gruden mess? Does Denver recover from 2 straight losses?

Dallas (4-1) @ N.England (2-3)
Dallas rolls, I gotta believe.

SNF:
Seattle (2-3) @ Pittsburgh (2-3)
The winner is .500. The loser is in trouble. If they tie, they're both in trouble!

MNF:
Buffalo (4-1) @ Tennessee (3-2)
Both teams are in control of their divisions. Buffalo is coming off a huge, emotional win in KC. Should be a great game.

Do the Raiders finish the season at something like 6-11, 5-12....?

The important thing is the Eagles covered.

BTW, saw Goeddert on waivers (Covid) picked him up yesterday and then the Eagles trade Ertz today...

Ertz means AZ doesn't skip a beat.

Arizona is good. Better than I thought they'd be. They're 5-0. They have a couple of good rbs. They have good Wrs. They had and have a good TE. And they have a mobile, talented QB. What could go wrong over the next 12 weeks?

What 3-2 teams are going to be 4-2 after this weekend?

Las Vegas @ Denver, so one of them if they don't tie.
Cleveland vs Arizona
Tennessee vs Buffalo
Chicago vs Green Bay
Carolina vs Minnesota
Cincinnati @ Detroit

N.Orleans has a bye so they won't.

How about 4-1 teams? Which will move to 5-1?

Chargers @ Baltimore (so one of them, sans a tie)
Rams @ Giants
Buffalo @ Tennessee
Dallas @ N.England
Green Bay @ Chicago

Getting into the meat of the NFL season!!!

Hard to say. Sometimes a thing like that can crush a team. Sometimes the players can rally around the new coach and play lights out. I think today will tell us a lot.
