There are two broader matchups at play between the Buccaneers and Cardinals. David Johnson and Kenyan Drake will be splitting time against one of the leagues best rush defenses, while Mike Evans and Chris Godwin get to run wild against one of the leagues worst pass defenses.

While I was unflattering toward Dallas last week, I'm changing my tune a little this week as they are home and against Minnesota, both teams will be surprisingly fluid on offense. This is one of the games that you want to take a close look at for your fantasy starters as both teams will run well on the ground and will throw the ball well too.

This is what folks aren't understanding about Dallas: they're not that good. They're a team that doesn't play well together but as individuals they excel. It's why they make such great fantasy players, they're all about individual stats and it's also why they lose, because they don't play as a team.

The Panthers received a monstrous wake up call in San Francisco last week as they got run over by Tevin Coleman. The good news is that the Panthers have a knack for bouncing back after big losses, especially when they travel back home. The Panthers have covered the spread in 13 of their last 14 home games following a road loss.

The Chargers are the most self-destructing team in the NFL. While the return of Russell Okung will certainly help protect Rivers, he will be on a snap count this week. The Bears have too much power up front for the Chargers' wonky offense.

The unraveling by the Jets at the hands of New England was well.. telling. Then the news that Robby Anderson is on the block for draft picks and an even deeper rumor that Sam Darnold can be had in deal.. that's not a recipe for success. Now they travel to Jacksonville to try and slow down Leonard Fournette? Good luck with that.

There is a massive mismatch between the Jaguars defensive line and the Bengals offensive line that will cause a lot of grief for Cincinnati. Joe Mixon can’t do it all alone and with Marcus Mariota out of the picture, Andy Dalton and company are now closing in on Jameis Winston for the title of most sacked quarterback.

There is nothing like a Jets game to fire up Bill Belichick. He has a long history with the Jets and there's something extra special in it when he comes out victorious. While New York showed flashes last week against Dallas with Sam Darnold back, the New England Patriots are an entirely different matter.

Are you ready for the DeAndre Hopkins revival? Hopkins has seven touchdowns in four career games against the Chiefs. Both teams are missing key defensive players and this score will resemble something like the Texans game last week.

The Giants will put a scare into Minnesota here and will play fairly well both in the air and on the ground but it's Minnesota's game to lose behind Dalvin Cook who should slash the Giants for copious gains.

Philadelphia came out last week and took punch after punch from Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and fought back just as hard to win. The Jets this week are however a train wreck, who have already checked out of 2019.

We all know where Miami stands, but asking the Chargers to cover 16 points is a tall order. The Chargers defense is among the worst in the league defending the run and pass. The Chargers are also on the road and still without a kicker.

I think most are onto Indianapolis this week and know that there is a lot more going on here than "folding up the tents and going home" after the Andrew Luck retirement. Those that discounted and discredited the Colts may be in for a little bit of a surprise.

The Eagles are going to continue to struggle until they can figure out a way to stop teams from passing the ball at will against them. Carson Wentz just isn’t good enough to do it all by himself.

The difference this Sunday? Aaron Donald (expected to play) and company are bearing down on the highly hyped but frighteningly inefficient Cleveland offense. Donald deserves to be in all MVP conversations, and he is going to have himself a feast this weekend.

Carolina is already in desperation mode for a win and if by some miracle Kyle Allen rallies his team for a win, he may never look back. It was Kyle Allen that beat out Kyler Murray at Texas A&M for the quarterback job before Murray transferred to Oklahoma.

Other than the Jets, I can’t reasonably see anyone choosing the Dolphins against any other teams this season. The Cowboys are on a roll right now and QB Dak Prescott is playing at an M.V.P level after the first two weeks. Bet the house on the home team here.

Atlanta is at home and an underdog? Say what now? If you want to overreact to Week 1 then sure, that makes sense, but if you understand that Atlanta has one of the very best passing attacks in the league and will be able to throw all over their stadium for chunks of yardage, then you know how silly that line is.

SATURDAY UPDATE: The Soap Opera has come to a close in Oakland for AB. It seemed like he was starting to say the right things but the Raiders taking away his guaranteed money put an end to his time in Oakland.

This game is fairly simple to call. Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore defense will be just too much for the team from South Beach to handle. The Ravens will win this one going away on the road. Put up the extra coin for a solid return.
