San Francisco 49ers @ Baltimore Ravens

Undoubtedly the game of the weekend and a hugely intriguing match-up between the two best teams in the NFL currently, with the free-wheeling Ravens hosting the surprising San Francisco 49ers.

Baltimore QB Lamar Jackson has elevated his play to an extraordinary level – his 876 yards ranks 10th in the entire NFL, while his 7.1 yards per run tops the league. He’s also tied for the top with 24 touchdown passes as a genuine dual-threat, and now the odds-on MVP favourite.

Trying to stop him is the toughest defensive unit in football and league leaders with 44 sacks, coming off a game where they shackled Aaron Rodgers – but Jackson and this Ravens side is a different proposition altogether.

Some of the stats are frightening. Jackson is the first player ever to record 3,000 passing yards and 1,500 rushing yards in his first two NFL seasons, and the first to have at least four passing TDs and 50 rushing yards in consecutive games.

Baltimore have beaten four straight play-off teams and are the first team to ever win three straight games by 34 points or more – they’ve been so good that Jackson hasn’t been needed to play in the fourth quarter of the last three games.

It won’t be a blow out this time, but throw in the cross-country trip and the Ravens should have enough at home to win by a touchdown.

Best bet:


Green Bay Packers @ New York Giants

Sometimes it's just a case of a good team playing against a bad one - no real need to go digging around for nuggets or factoids about how one team, or player, usually plays against the other. In short, we're getting a decent price here on Green Bay because the Packers were beat up in San Francisco last week.

The other caveat is that they're going coast-to-coast to now face the Giants, but they will have travelled angry, and let's be honest the Giants are not the 49ers with their top-ranked pass defence. They're a bad team with just two wins under their belt who may yet get the first pick in next year's draft.

Green Bay's defence has been a bit dodgy, but they face one of the worst attacks in football here so should be able to contain them enough to let Aaron Rodgers torch Big Blue's inexperienced secondary.

They NFC North leaders are easily a touchdown better than the Giants so we'll take that and run.

Best bet:


Oakland Raiders @ Kansas City Chiefs

It's a surprise to see that a win at Arrowhead for the visiting Raiders would actually put Oakland alongside Kansas City tied for the AFC West lead, which is a miracle in itself for a team that was battered by the Jets last week.

A loss though, and it's basically all over for Jon Gruden's men, and as 10.5-point underdogs they're not fancied to do anything much against MVP Patrick Mahomes and a well-rested Chiefs side coming off a bye week.


New England Patriots @ Houston Texans

New England have an emphatic 10-1 record against Houston, and bagging an 11th win could book them a pay-off spot depending on other results as they return to the scene of perhaps Tom Brady’s finest moment.

Pulling out one moment from Brady’s long and illustrious career is saying something, but the comeback the Patriots produced in Houston against Atlanta to win Super Bowl LI is the biggest and best in the sport’s history.
