The Eagles have a strike-anytime offense, but the Chiefs pass rush and cornerbacks should be able to slow it down just long enough for Kansas City to pull out the win on the road.
Prediction: Chiefs 21, Eagles 17
Green Bay Packers @ Cincinnati Bengals
As good as Aaron Rodgers is, the Bengals D will keep him in check in front of their home crowd.
Prediction: Bengals 24, Packers 23
Detroit Lions @ Washington Redskins
The Redskins are going to keep giving up lots of points through the air, and RG3 doesn’t look healthy enough to keep pace.
Prediction: Lions 33, Redskins 24
Houston Texans @ Baltimore Ravens
The Ravens ran into a tough defense in the Browns, but they’ll have an even tougher challenge against the Texans’ vaunted defense this week. The difference here is the fact that the Texans have an offense that can move the ball much better than Cleveland.
Prediction: Texans 28, Ravens 24
Atlanta Falcons @ Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins are a lot better than people think, and a win over the Falcons will validate them as a team to beat in the AFC. The Dolphins also get the Falcons in Miami, which is an ideal situation against a team with a suspect defense and an ailing Roddy White.
