Previewing the Weekend’s Big Football Action

When college football ends there are positives that do take place. We’re talking about the Saturday professional football action that starts up this weekend! We see two games as a sort of appetite before the big day of Sunday action. There are plenty of college games Saturday, but we’re talking about NFL on Saturday! Let’s talk about games this weekend we’re going to enjoy…

Saturday we see the Lions take on the Bears, but unfortunately for Detroit fans, they’ll be down a few offensive lineman. The Bears defense has been very solid and should take advantage of this. While the Lions likely win, we see the Bears keeping it close enough to cover the spread. Take the Bears and the 5 points.

Jacksonville got us last weekend, but this weekend we think they’re going to win one for us. They’re huge favorites over Houston, who is down Tom Savage and Deshaun Watson. The Jags should have no issue controlling the clock and causing havoc on defense. Go with the Jags -11.

Cam Newton and the Panthers take on Aaron Rodgers and the Packers this weekend in a very big game for the both of them. The Packers go into this one the underdogs (+3) and we’ll be taking them. Whenever you think Rodgers doesn’t have the upper hand (he’s returning from injury this weekend), he shows up big. Go Pack go on Sunday!

Season Standings: 23-19
