Tennessee Titans @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers – 1PM ET

Tony Battalio

It has been an up-and-down season for the Tennessee Titans throughout the first half of the year and rookie quarterback Will Levis will be looking to lead them to a victory in his third career NFL start. This feels like a must win game for Tennessee, as they look to keep pace in a very crowded AFC wildcard race and keep pace in the AFC South division as Jacksonville is currently increasing their lead each and every week. Levis has shown that he is very capable of leading this team to a victory, and they would really need it here in this one as they will also look to get Derek Henry going here on Sunday afternoon against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Tennessee comes into this game as losers of five out of their first eight games on the season and it is very important that they pick up a fourth victory here on Sunday afternoon on the road in Tampa Bay against a struggling Buccaneers team. 

Tampa Bay is experiencing the same type of struggles that Tennessee is throughout the early part of the season. They got off to a pretty successful start as they were beating up on bad teams but now that they are getting into the meat of their schedule and playing some of the top teams in the league, it has been hard for Tampa Bay to produce victories and results on the football field. They will be looking to bounce back and grab their fourth victory of the season here on Sunday afternoon at home as they look to stay at top of the NFC south division, which is absolutely wide open right now because of the struggles of the other three teams within the division as well. Baker Mayfield will have to play mistake free football in this game and that is something that has bothered him of the last several weekends and it has led to Tampa Bay losing some games as well. Unfortunately for Tampa Bay I don’t think they will be able to pick up a victory in this one despite being at home as I look for Tennessee to hit the road and steal a win in Florida here on Sunday.

Cleveland Browns @ Baltimore Ravens – 1PM ET

Tony Battalio

The Cleveland Browns come into this game, coming off of a solid victory over the Arizona Cardinals in their previous contest. Now Cleveland will be looking to get revenge over the Baltimore Ravens when they play their AFC North divisional rivals for the second time this season, this time on the road in Baltimore. The last time these two teams met it was anything less than pretty as it was the first career start for Dorian Thompson-Robinson, and Baltimore absolutely lasted the Cleveland Browns. Cleveland finds themselves in better shape, coming into this game, and a crucial victory in this game would put them on the doorstep of first place within the division, and put them in a great position to make the postseason this year. Quarterback Deshaun Watson will be looking to put up a quality performance after finally returning after several weeks out last week in Arizona. As Cleveland searches for their second divisional victory of the season, and one of their biggest wins of the regular season to date.

Baltimore comes into this game looking to get their second victory of the season against Cleveland and continue their solid start to the year. Quarterback Lamar Jackson is playing like an MVP candidate, as he looks to be on pace to win his second MVP award of his career as well. With a victory here on Sunday afternoon, Baltimore would further establish their lead at the top of the AFC North division as teams like Cincinnati, are starting to heat up and challenge them for the top spot within the division. It would also give the Baltimore Ravens a 2 1/2 game lead on Cleveland heading into the back half of the regular season and give them a massive tiebreaker within the division standings if they were to end up tied at the end of the regular season as well. They have already shown once that they can beat this Cleveland team and beat them badly after stomping them on the road despite their incredible defense this season. I expect this game to be a lot closer than the previous one was and in the end I look for Cleveland to get the job done here on Sunday afternoon.

New Orleans Saints @ Minnesota Vikings – 1PM ET

Tony Battalio

The New Orleans Saints come into this game, looking to get a crucial victory as they look to keep pace in a very wide-open NFC South division heading into the back half of the regular season. New Orleans is building up some momentum throughout the end of the first half of the year, and they will be looking to keep that momentum rolling on the road in Minnesota here on Sunday afternoon against the Vikings. New Orleans comes into this game with five victories, through their first nine games of the year, and they will be looking for their sixth victory of the season to further increase their lead within the division here on Sunday against a beat up, but motivated Minnesota team. Quarterback Derek Carr will have to play mistake free football and they will need to get guys like Alvin Kamara and Chris Olave involved in this game if they want to head to Minnesota and pick up a crucial midseason victory. They will also be looking to extend their current winning streak to three games with another victory here in this one.

Minnesota found a way to win, despite being down to their third string quarterback, that they traded for only four days prior to their victory last Sunday afternoon. Now they will be looking to string together another crucial victory here on Sunday at home against the New Orleans Saints as Minnesota looks to keep themselves in playoff contention, heading into the back half of the regular season. With the Detroit Lions recent struggles a victory for the Minnesota Vikings would keep them within striking distance of winning the NFC North division heading into the final eight weeks of the regular season. It would be an incredible feat for Minnesota, given all the issues they’ve had this season with injuries, and a red hot Minnesota team, heading into the playoffs could easily make some noise if they get fully healthy outside of missing Kirk Cousins. They come into this game with five victories, their name on the season and they will be looking to pick up victory number six here on Sunday afternoon against New Orleans. Unfortunately from Minnesota I just don’t see it happening as I look for the Saints to hit the road and pick up the victory.

Washington Commanders @ Seattle Seahawks – 4:25PM ET

Tony Battalio

It has been a roller coaster of a season for the Washington Commanders, and if they can manage to get things back on track in the second half of the year there’s a possibility they could make the playoffs this season. They hit the road for this game to the Pacific Northwest to take on the Seattle Seahawks, who have been having some struggles of their own as of late. As of right now, this game is really a tossup between two middle of the pack teams in the NFC, who could both desperately use a victory in this one. Washington comes into this game on Sunday afternoon looking to get back to .500 as they come into this one with four victories and five losses on their record through their first nine games of the season. The commanders are currently dealing with injuries at the wide receiver position as it is possible that both Jahan Dotson and Curtis Samuel will be limited, or could miss this game altogether, which would leave quarterback Sam Howell at a massive disadvantage. This will be their second consecutive road game as they are coming off of a victory in New England last Sunday and they will be looking to grab a second consecutive victory here this Sunday afternoon against Seattle.

The Seattle Seahawks come into this game looking to get their season back on track after a few weeks of rough performances during the middle part of the regular season. Quarterback Geno Smith will have to play much better and he will have to play mistake free football if Seattle wants to grab a victory here at home on Sunday afternoon over Washington. Seattle comes into this game with five victories through their first eight games of the season and they will be looking for their sixth victory of the season here on Sunday afternoon and one of the toughest environments in the entire league. They come into this game after being blasted by the Baltimore Ravens in their previous contest. Prior to that they did string two consecutive victories together, although they escaped against Cleveland with a victory that arguably should’ve been a loss for the Seahawks. I expect Seattle to get right back into the win column here on Sunday afternoon at home as I look for them to pick up a victory over Washington in this crucial midseason matchup. As I look for their offense to make the necessary amount of players to pick up a much-needed victory here in this one.

New York Jets @ Las Vegas Raiders – 8:20PM ET

Tony Battalio

The New York Jets find themselves in an interesting position as they struggled to pick up a victory and their previous game after several failed attempts of getting the ball into the endzone against the Los Angeles Chargers. Now New York will be playing their second consecutive primetime game in a row this time against the Las Vegas Raiders and this feels like a must win game for the New York Jets heading into the second half of the regular season. The New York Jets come into this game with four victories through their first eight games of the year and if you would’ve asked anyone before the season if this is where they would have saw New York at this point in time, they would’ve told you no. Everything went wrong for them in the opening game of the year despite them picking up the victory when Aaron Rodgers went down and now Zach Wilson will be looking to lead them to their fifth victory of the season here on Sunday night in Las Vegas. with a victory here in this one, they could try and keep pace in a very loaded AFC wildcard race heading into the last eight weeks of the regular season so this game almost feels like a must win game for the Jets.

The Las Vegas Raiders have had their fair share of struggles throughout the early part of the regular season as well. Following their loss two weeks ago, they fired their head coach and their general manager, and their interim head coach came in during his first game and let them to a pretty dominant victory over the New York Giants. He will be looking for a second consecutive victory against the New York Jets here on Sunday night at home as Las Vegas looks to keep their fading playoff hopes alive heading into the second half of the regular season. What a victory Las Vegas would pick up their fifth victory of the year through their first 10 games of the season as they have yet to sit through their bye week. It feels like a must win game for Las Vegas at this point if they want to keep pace in the AFC wildcard heading into the last several weeks of the regular season as they have plenty of competition right now. Luckily, for Las Vegas that is exactly what I expect as I look for to be a low scoring contest, but in the end, I think the Raiders come out on top with a late field goal.
